17th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
The winner of two bumpers and three hurdles; likes good ground; jumped well on recent chase debut at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft) and was beaten just over 3l; that was after 202 days away, so there is good reason to believe he can improve again. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Triple hurdle winner who has dropped to an attractive mark but for good reason; tailed off over further here last month and, although this shorter trip is a plus, she has plenty to prove. |
12/1 |

4th 6 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Triple hurdle winner (2m2f-2m5f) in 2024 but she's struggled in last six runs and was pulled up here (3m2f) three weeks ago; has plenty to prove and needs a big turnaround back in trip. |
20/1 |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Triple hurdle winner (2m2f-2m5f) in 2024 but she's struggled in last five starts, including over C&D last month on her penultimate run; has plenty to prove and needs a major revival. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 7lb |
In a solid run of form but this is a tough mark for an exposed 9yo and he's undergone a fourth wind operation since finishing fifth at Perth in early June. |

On a hat-trick when a fairly close third in this last year and he returns off a 4lb lower mark, and in a solid run of form; enters the reckoning. |

13th Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Stuck on a long losing run and has been pretty much tailed off in his last two races (2m4f/3m2f); reduced mark offers some hope. |
7/1 |
|
5th 5 |
7th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Has gone 34 races since he last won three years ago but steps up in trip on a career-low mark in this sphere; may well show more. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

On a long losing sequence but returned to some form when back from a break and finishing a 12l third of five over C&D 12 days ago, ridden by Rian Corcoran; respected off 4lb lower. |

20th Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Respectable third at Market Rasen last time but is far from guaranteed to go two places better, being the least productive contender in this field; overall strike-rate is just 1-25 and chase record is 0-6. |
8/1 |

With Dan Skelton when gaining her only success and hard to envisage her doubling that tally here from well out of the weights. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Two-time chase winner who was a 9l second in this race 12 months ago (good); gets a pull in the weights with the winner Brandy McQueen from their clash at Catterick (3m1f, good) last month but he was soundly beaten in second and has work to do today. |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Won over hurdles and twice over fences for Tom Ellis in 2024 (3m, good/good to soft); won a four-runner point for this yard in January but well beaten last time; has no easy task |
16/1 |

2nd 2 |
14th Apr 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
Twice a 3m chase winner at Fakenham before bagging the hat-trick in 3m Southwell handicap hurdle in November; pulled up on final two handicap chase runs for Tom Ellis but still considered for in-form new yard here. |
