3rd 4 (1) |
26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Course winner (2m) who bids a for hat-trick after wins at Ffos Las (2m, heavy) last September (by 12l) and on her Nottingham return under Donagh Murphy (1m6f, good) 17 days ago; only 2lb higher and much respected. |

1st 2 (1) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
9yo who won this race (good) on her reappearance in 2024 and she ended last season with a 12l win at Ffos Las (2m, heavy; made all); 7lb higher on her return but she still looks on a workable mark and won't mind what the weather does; key player for in-form yard. |

1st 1 (1) |
28th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won over 2m1f on heavy ground last year and went in again at the expense of two rivals on good to firm this summer; nothing wrong with her latest effort in a Class 2 over 1m6f at Bath (soft). |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins at 2m, including three on soft going, latterly at Catterick in October; went back-to-back at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and fourth at Ripon (2m, good) on latest outing was close to his best; same mark, so needs to find extra, but he can't be ruled out. |
16/1 |

4th 2 (6) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Out-and-out stayer who won twice at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) at the start of the year but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; it remains to be seen whether a return to turf makes any difference in that regard. |

6th 13 (1) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Out-and-out stayer who won twice at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) at the start of the year, but he looks high enough in the weights now and makes a belated Polytrack debut. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
5-14 over hurdles, the latest win gained at Taunton (3m, good; wore cheekpieces) last month; posted another career-best performance when finishing well from the rear for close third in valuable Haydock handicap (3m, good; first-time visor) 16 days ago and commands respect here. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 11 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
First four hurdle wins came in the month of May, before he took a four-runner race at Taunton (3m, good) last month; 5lb higher in today's much more competitive affair but that was his first attempt over this far and he might have more to offer as a stayer; first visor replaces cheekpieces. |
14/1 |
|
1st 3 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
All four wins over hurdles have came in the month of May; returned from her winter break when last of four at Plumpton (2m2f, good to soft) last month; should be sharper and steps up in trip but is 10lb above her last winning mark. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Gained his only career win in this 12 months ago when 3lb lower and perhaps unlucky not to have won last week at Lingfield (2m AW) given the trouble he found in running; good or quicker ground might be ideal but effective on good to soft. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win was at Salisbury (1m6f) last August but he's a reliable type who has hasn't been beaten far in his two runs this season including a clear second at Salisbury; looks worth another try at this trip and he's still unexposed on AW; shortlisted. |
7/2 |
|
5 (1) |
6th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Well suited by a stiff 1m6f and his clear comeback second at Salisbury a month ago has been boosted by the winner going in again since; only 1lb higher and his claims are obvious. |

22nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Six-time hurdle winner, most recently in five-runner race at Worcester (2m7f, soft) last month; still on workable mark after recent 3lb rise but needs to bounce back from poor Flat run 12 days ago. |
8/1 |

7th 4 (5) |
10th Oct 2024 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |

Won his latest race over hurdles two weeks ago and that after finishing runner-up on the Flat (2m1f); clearly in good order and won't mind this ground. |

27th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Consistent under both codes since joining the Flints, narrowly missing out at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) in July; similarly close second the last time a stayers' trip was tried in March 2023 off 6lb higher; chance. |

Acts on fast and heavy ground; dual course winner, more recently when clinging on by a short head in December (2m2f, heavy ground); back on the same mark today but he's struggled in his last two runs and needs to get back on track. |

Returns from break on career-low mark but this regressive 9yo is yet to add to his German Group 3 success in 2021 and is difficult to enthuse over. |
