Four-tme hurdle winner (twice in Jersey); will be very well suited by the forecast good ground here but has been absent since a disappointing run in November and remains on a fairly tough mark. |

0-10 under rules, but has finished runner-up in both starts over hurdles here (2m/2m4f) and was returning from ten months off when fourth of ten at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) in September, finishing around 2l behind Queens Wish; one for the shortlist. |

10st 4lb |
Successful over 2m at Uttoxeter (good) but out of form since, with recent 14.5l third at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) no big step back in the right direction. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Badly out of form since the autumn but has a first-time tongue-tie fitted here and is now now 10lb lower than when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last summer; well worth a glance in the betting. |

Drying conditions will be in his favour but this 7yo has been struggling for a while now on all sorts of surfaces; potentially on a good mark even from out of the handicap but he's a risky proposition at the minute. |

11st 8lb |
Four-time hurdle winner and his last success was at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) in June; disappointing in final run for the Hobbs/White yard but he still looks feasibly treated on his best form and needs a close look on first run for James Owen; new headgear. |

Not seen over hurdles since two disappointing runs in the autumn (2m4f/2m5f) and his subsequent Flat form has also been disappointing; tries a new trip here; needs to turn a corner. |

Beaten 39l, 38l and 22l in three junior/maiden hurdles but pedigree gives reason to believe she could improve for this longer trip on handicap debut; not ruled out if strong in the market back from a break. |

8th Oct 2024 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Has only achieved a modest level of form in his qualifying runs, with the pick of those a 20l third of 11 at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in July, all times ridden by James Martin; improvement needed on handicap debut. |
25/1 |

1st Sep 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
No great shakes in his three points and modest form when he made much of the running in the last two of his three hurdle races at Uttoxeter (2m7f/2m4f, good) this summer; this drop in trip has to be explored but he'll need serious improvement. |

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

Ran well for a long way in stronger C&D race than this four weeks ago but dropped out quite quickly once the pace lifted and was well beaten in the end; others look stronger. |

Dual hurdle winner and only 2lb higher than for his win at Hereford in December; however, didn't look a natural on last month's chase debut and was pulled up. |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Struck form with two 2m hurdle wins in December (Ludlow claimer and Hereford handicap) but three lesser efforts have followed, including a well-held third of five at Ludlow last month; still 4lb higher than for his last success and something to prove on this switch to chasing; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |

Made quite promising start to chase career in spring but now reverts to hurdling after lesser effort last month; all recent form is over 3m but she can cope with today's drop back in trip and her current mark is workable. |
