12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won three-runner contest at Kelso (2m7f, good) in May and is still on a workable mark but never really got competitive in last month's Perth Gold Cup and needs to put that run behind him. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Made it 5-12 over fences when readily taking care of two rivals over a similar trip at Kelso a month ago (good; made most); only 3lb higher but without Jack Power's 5lb claim, so at this level he's probably in need of his best form yet. |

Produced good performance to win by 6l at Sedgefield (2m, good) in March but has not been in the same form again since, and he failed to convince stamina-wise on his three previous attempts at about 2m4f. |

Creditable third over C&D in January (Starman was over 6l in front of him in second) and not disgraced when fifth of six at Sedgefield last time (2m, good to soft); each-way chance. |

4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
He's dropped to a mark 3lb lower than when winning at Catterick (1m7f, good to soft) last February; however, this season's form has been mixed and he was no match for Supreme George when third of five at Catterick (1m7f, good) on New Year's Day; needs to raise his game. |

Close up when brought down two out in Ballyfort's race over C&D last month; didn't seem to run quite as well when 15l second over C&D last time (went clear but tired late on) but still a contender today. |

Ran well stepped back up to 2m4f last time when bidding for an Ayr double; remains a consistent sort and again looks likely to give his running; each-way possibilities. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Runner-up over C&D in November and made it 2-8 over fences when winning in good style here (2m, soft) last month; this progressive 7yo may well take a 6lb rise in his stride. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Four-time chase winner who bounced back with a close second at Uttoxeter (2m, good) 11 days ago; 3lb higher here but he remains well treated on old form and all of his wins have been under Brian Hughes; key player. |
2/1 |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Five wins include four over fences; ran well but no match for Most Wanted at Fakenham in May on his return from a break; chance on that form even from 2lb out of the weights, and 2m3f looked too far last time. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |

All five wins have been over 2m-2m1f, two of which came at this track in 2022; made a pleasing return after a five-month break when runner-up at Fakenham (2m, good) last month but may be vulnerable to younger rivals here. |

Won twice over fences in France in 2022 but he is 0-8 in Britain; modest form this season and although he's already come way down the weights, others still have more pressing claims; blinkered on last two starts. |

Won a Kelso novice hurdle in first-time cheekpieces last May (2m1f, good to soft); disappointing all three starts since, the second over 2m6f on soft at Newcastle; new headgear needs to bring about improvement. |

11st 12lb |
All four wins have been at Hexham and it was never in much doubt there three weeks ago (1m7f, good); hard to grumble with the 8lb rise but now has to continue his good work on a very different track, and he was a lot lower in the weights when second to Garde Des Champs in this 12 months ago. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 3 |

Started off for Adam Nicol with two comfortable C&D wins last month (good to soft/good) and travelled strongly for a long way before failing to see out 2m4f here a fortnight ago; upped significantly in grade today but this drop back in trip is the obvious move, and he might still have more to offer for his new stable. |
