7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Doesn't win too often on the Flat these days but he has been placed on his last two starts, chasing home Seraphic at Chelmsford four weeks ago (1m2f); each-way claims again. |

9st 10lb |
Prolific winning hurdler who opened AW account with clear win in amateur riders' race at Chelmsford in June; returned to the Flat with two below-par runs at Kempton this month, though, and has only dropped 1lb. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Headstrong front-runner who gained two of her five hurdling wins over C&D and is well suited by good ground; absent since her very respectable third in Listed grade at Wetherby (2m, good) in November but has won when fresh before and has a big role to play here if fully tuned up. |

2nd Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Headstrong front-runner who won a handicap at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) in June and was a good second in a handicap at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in September; however, she was only sixth of eight in a Listed race at Kempton (2m, good) a fortnight ago and looks vulnerable once more. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 195y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Not as good as he was but that's reflected in his mark and he knows his way around this place; returning from a break when third in this 12 months ago off a 4lb higher mark; could easily have a role to play. |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Not quite as good as he was but still a useful performer; placed on final two starts last season (2m hurdle/2m1f chase) and drops back in trip after looking stretched by 2m4f last month; probably best on good/good to soft but has won on soft; enters calculations. |

16th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Not quite as good as he was but still a useful performer; second off today's mark on latest hurdling start at Newbury (2m, good to soft) in March and also ran well when third in Sussex Champion Chase at Plumpton (2m1f, good) last month; well worth another crack at 2m4f; probably won't be far away. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Won a Sedgefield handicap hurdle in May (2m1f, good to firm) but has been rather disappointing over hurdles and on the Flat since; needs to bounce back. |
9/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Four-time hurdle winner, including last month; has winning form on the Flat and forget Chester last week as the saddle slipped. |

Four-time hurdle winner, including last month; has winning form on the Flat and placed on the AW earlier this year, but has no form here and others have more going for them. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
About 7l behind Diamond Bay at Goodwood (1m6f, good) on final Flat run but has since won well with the blinkers back on over hurdles, albeit an ordinary handicap; Ashley Lewis also takes off a handy 7lb; could have some role to play. |
8/1 |

10th Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Generally disappointing over hurdles since Plumpton novice win (2m, good to soft) in early 2024 and not seen in this sphere since down-the-field finish in Ascot handicap in December; in fairly good form on the Flat this year, though, and his current hurdle mark ought to be workable; market may guide. |

Won at Ffos Las (1m2f, good to soft) and Sandown (1m2f, good) last summer, but he wasn't able to build on those victories in three subsequent starts; absent since October but has place claims on this reappearance. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner, including over 2m5f here in October when ridden by Isabelle Ryder, form which gives him a solid chance; beaten 35l at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) in November and needs to bounce back but he's won off a similar break in the past. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 163y Class 4 |

Knows how to win and was close up in a Class 3 handicap last time at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) which was bordering on his best form; every chance. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |

C&D winner in May (2m4f, good) when back from a winter break; lesser efforts the last twice and looks the stable second string. |

11st 0lb |
Has come good off his much reduced mark and a 4lb rise for Hereford last time is more than fair (2m, good); one of his career-best runs was on soft so rain won't bother him. |
