14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Very useful chaser at his best but below par last season, just fifth in his bid to win the Freebooter at Aintree (3m1f) in April for the third year running; cheekpieces on when a remote fifth in 3m Bangor handicap the following month; has a bit to prove after a break. |

23rd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 2 |

Took big step back in right direction when fifth at Aintree (3m1f, good to soft) last month, in race he won the previous two seasons; still on a workable mark and has a fighting chance here if first-time cheekpieces have any positive effect. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
11st 13lb |
Has faced a couple of difficult tasks since returned to hurdles but was beaten when taking a late fall returned to handicap level most recently; can be opposed off current mark in this deeper field. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 84y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Second in two small-field chases this season before reverting to hurdles at big odds for two Cheltenham Grade 2s, soundly beaten on latest occasion; runner-up off the same mark in this race last term; 5lb claimer takes over and they are considered each-way. |
4/1 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Some progressive form in handicap hurdles last season at up to 3m and, after two defeats over fences, he reverted to hurdles and finished fifth of six in the Grade 2 Relkeel Hurdle (2m4f) here on New Year's Day; that was a respectable performance but he faces another tough task today. |

Stays further than this but travelled well before finishing off the job over C&D last week; fair shout off 3lb higher if as good again. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |

Seven-time hurdle winner; only his third run over fences when second here a month ago but never went a yard here on Saturday and was pulled up in this new aids combination. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
9yo whose losing sequence goes all the way back to September 2022 but he returned to form when second over C&D (soft) last month and is also fine on good ground; a tongue-tie is added; possible player. |
9/2 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Seven-time hurdle winner who was useful on good ground in his prime; launched chasing career with two very respectable runs here (2m1f/2m5f) in May and was not disgraced in competitive 2m6f handicap hurdle here on Saturday (albeit finishing behind Sea The Clouds); could have a say. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 3f 83y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Came good over fences with small-field win at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in February but was not in the same form on his latest outing and ran poorly the only previous time he wore cheekpieces; others look safer. |
8/1 |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Dual bumper and hurdle winner; mixed results in his first three runs over fences but he really got his act together when justifying favouritism at Bangor (2m5f, soft) last month; that was a four-runner race but he forged clear in the closing stages and a 6lb rise looks fair; shortlisted. |
9/4 |

1st 3 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Useful bumper horse and hurdler but has always struggled with consistency, a pattern that's threatening to continue over fences; however, if in the same form as when second to a sharp improver at Southwell two runs back (2m4f, good to soft; fine on soft) he'd have every chance. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Unplaced in four runs on the Rowley Mile but he's 3-5 on the other Newmarket course, the scene of his two wins in August (1m4f, good to firm; 1m6f, good); however, those were Class 3s and he was behind Ernst Blofeld at this level at Doncaster. |
20/1 |

7th 8 (3) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Looked back in prime form at Newmarket on his last two outings when coming from the rear to win over 1m4f and 1m6f; the latter was by a short head but against a respected opponent and perhaps good to soft ground was not ideal when he took sixth at 40-1 in this race last year. |
11/1 |

1st 3 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won this race comfortably in first-time blinkers a year ago and looked back in prime form when keeping on well to beat Sixpack here (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; only 2lb higher today; has another big role to play. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 149y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Course winner who keeps on improving and was a fine second of 24 in the Pertemps Final (Handicap) at Cheltenham (3m, good) last month; receives 7lb mares' allowance but today's assignment requires a clear career best. |
50/1 |
|
2nd 11 |
12th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 213y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Never better than on her last three starts, winning a Listed mares' hurdle at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) on first occasion; minor honours in Grade 2 events since (hooded last time, not today); reliable and basically progressive but she needs to resume improvement in this hot handicap. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
7yo who has shown improved form this season and won a Listed mares' hurdle at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) in December; similar form when held in fourth in mares' Grade 2 there (3m, soft) three weeks ago and it seems likely she'll prove vulnerable today; wears a first-time hood. |

11st 11lb |
Won two handicap hurdles and a handicap chase for Dan Skelton, all at around 2m on good/good to firm: has not been at his best for new yard this year, but interesting on his first run since wind surgery. |
9/1 |
|
6th 12 |
29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Better known as a chaser now and has not really been firing on all cylinders for new stable here this season (three runs); reverts to hurdling on a good mark but still has something to prove. |
20/1 |
|
4th 4 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won twice over hurdles and once over fences for Dan Skelton; wasn't beaten far when third of three on stable debut here (2m1f, good) in May but he was well held in another small-field event over C&D last time; still lightly raced over fences but he needs to step up again after that last run; cheekpieces reapplied. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 208y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Made very good progress last season, winning twice over 3m on New course here (good to soft/good); ended up with too much to do when finishing well for close third at Haydock (3m, good) in May and probably still has more improvement to come. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
10th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Made very good progress last season and had three of today's rivals behind when coming from off the pace for driven-out success at Cheltenham (3m, good) last month; 6lb higher today but could still have more to offer. |
4/1 |
