24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Dual 2m5f course winner in early part of last season; returned from five-month break with low-key run here 18 days ago but is versatile regarding ground and his current mark is workable; can feature if that recent outing brought him on. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
All of his three victories have been at Fontwell including two chase wins over an extended 2m5f (good to soft); beaten 9l when runner-up here in December but that was behind an improver and he's still lightly raced in this sphere; respected back in trip on his return. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Course hurdle winner last summer (2m1f, good), having made most of the running; held up in rear and never looked dangerous when fourth of six on last month's chasing debut at Stratford (2m3f, good) but that was his first run since the autumn and a return to more positive tactics might show him in a better light here. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won juvenile hurdle over C&D in 2022; ended long losing run in basement-grade Flat race last month but has not run over hurdles since November 2024 and his current ability over jumps is tricky to gauge. |

It's been a while since he got his head in front on the line; was beaten less than 3l at Windsor last month and drops into a classified; needs to be considered. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Seemed to take form to whole new level when dominating from the front in first-time visor at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in April but was pulled up the following month and has not raced since; now tried in cheekpieces. |

11th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Had won a bumper and a handicap, but his all-the-way win at Wincanton last month (2m4f, good) was a career-best and the first-time visor must have been a factor; the handicapper didn't hold back with a 13lb hike but still much respected. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won a bumper on good ground and a handicap hurdle (2m4f) on good to soft; ran right up to his best when third in a Taunton handicap in January but he was disappointing after wind surgery there last month; bit to prove again after that and he needs new headgear to work. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
2-13 over fences and 0-19 as hurdler; ran creditably on penultimate start but tailed off latest and they were both C&D; not the percentage call. |
11/2 |

6th 6 |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
In fairly good form over fences this season and ran big race when third in C&D (good) hurdle 16 days ago, looking likely winner until succumbing in closing stages; up in grade today but still on a good hurdle mark; swaps cheekpieces for refitted visor; can make his presence felt again. |

3rd 2 |
6th Sep 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |

Won two chases on ground slower than good in December (2m4f/2m3f) and has been running fairly well over fences this season; well beaten when reverting to hurdling last month but might be perked up by a change of headgear here and is on a good mark. |

10st 9lb |
He was back from a break and wind surgery when opening his account at the 18th attempt here (about 2m1f, good; Winston's Oath second) 11 days ago; 1lb worse off with the runner-up and needs to conclusively prove his suitability for this trip but still demands consideration. |

22nd Sep 2024 Good 2m 4f 114y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Dual hurdle winner (once here); seemingly back in good nick when runner-up at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in June, his second run after a break, but disappointed there last month and needs a boost from the first-time cheekpieces today; probably best suited by good/good to soft ground. |

Fell in his first two handicaps but got off the mark with clearcut success in first-time blinkers at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) last month; might not be ideally suited by the forecast faster ground here but may still have potential; tongue-tie fitted for first time. |

Won off 3lb higher for Milton Harris 13 months ago (2m1f) but, following a spell with Sylvester Kirk, was well beaten on last month's stable debut (2m); has a lot to prove on this first venture beyond about 2m4f. |

Now only 1lb higher than when scoring at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) for Milton Harris a year ago but both recent runs for Sylvester Kirk were disappointing and he needs to have been perked up by latest stable switch; cheekpieces refitted. |
