7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Sixth in 2025 Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham; highly likely that the long odds-on favourite failed to give his running when this 7yo prevailed in a match over 2m6f here in December but it was no-nonsense stuff from the front and his first run over fences at Cheltenham was also encouraging (on soft); unexposed chaser who is in the Grade 1 Brown Advisory at Cheltenham; respected. |

Belied his huge odds with a good effort in the Albert Bartlett, eventually weakening into sixth place having held every chance turning for home; could go well again. |

20th Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 54y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
2-2 on heavy going; unseated on chase debut in November and her jumping lacked fluency when second of three in Listed mares' novice at Warwick (2m4f) next time; appeared to step up when winning a two-runner beginners' chase at Doncaster (upped to 3m, good) latest, finding a fine leap at the last and keeping on well to make all; should have more to offer. |

29th Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |

All six starts on soft/heavy ground; this two-time bumper winner (including here) scored easily at Ffos Las (2m) in December on her second hurdle start before a creditable third of five in a Grade 2 mares' novice at Sandown (2m4f) last month; has potential off her opening mark, if conditions suit. |

Fair maiden hurdler; yet to offer much in three runs sent chasing though, undergoing wind surgery before pulled up in 2m7f handicap chase here 25 days ago; blinkers and tongue strap go on here. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
£130,000 buy after runner-up in an Irish point in 2023 and showed promise over hurdles, but his two efforts since switched to fences/handicaps this year have been disappointing; wore this headgear when a remote fourth of four at Wetherby (3m, good to soft) in March and has since undergone wind surgery. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 45y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Point runner-up who also showed ability over hurdles; tailed off at 17-2 on last month's chase/handicap debut at Chepstow but that was his first run since last April and he may have needed it; wears first-time cheekpieces and the step up in trip could be a firm plus; interesting for in-form yard. |

Lightly raced 6yo; made winning seasonal/stable/chase debut at Southwell in November (2m, soft) and reportedly made a noise when third to Flash In The Park off this 5lb higher mark there the following month; could be given another chance. |

30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |

Lightly raced 7yo; tailed off on handicap/seasonal debut (2m7f, soft) but, although he clearly needs a good deal better still, his sixth of 11 at Hereford (3m2f, soft; 7-1) six weeks ago was more like it. |

11st 0lb |
Heavy-ground Irish point winner in spring 2024; did not show a great deal in three slow-ground maiden hurdles last season (2m-2m4f) but made quite promising chase/handicap debut when third of six at Taunton (2m, good) in March and ought to be suited by this move back up in trip. |
