9th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 12y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A three-time 2m chase winner last season but he's offered precious little this term, tried in blinkers when pulled up on his last two runs at Ludlow and Exeter either side of Christmas; his mark is plummeting but it's still easy to look elsewhere. |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
3-8 over fences, the latest win gained gamely from the front at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) in March; ended last season with two lesser efforts, though, and current mark probably demands a career best. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Made encouraging seasonal debut over 2m4f in November but has been well beaten over that trip three times since; she's suited by good ground and can outclass this field if back on song but is unraced beyond about 2m5f and arrives with a fair bit to prove. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Dual chase winner in December 2024 and fairly consistent since, but she has struggled back up in class on last two starts, albeit they were some tough assignments; should appreciate this ease in class and she's capable of making her presence felt. |

16th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 42y Class 2 |

Struggled in similar event at Cheltenham last time, ending a reasonably consistent spell of form; faces another difficult assignment and may need a return to calmer waters; gained her only wins in Class 4 and Class 5 in December 2024. |

10st 2lb |
Coped with varying conditions when completing a hat-trick last season in 2m chases; this campaign isn't going half as well and this new headgear combination did nothing for him last time. |

3rd Mar 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |

13yo who has inconsistent recent form but was successful (off 1lb lower) in December on most recent Southwell start; not ruled out. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |

Multiple chase winner who made it three for the year at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December; hasn't run to the same level since, a recent second at Huntingdon being a remote one, and others further up the list. |

Veteran who had a clearcut win at Southwell (2m, good to soft) in December from Extraordinary Man, his 11th chase win; not so good at Hereford or Warwick (on Tuesday) since, however. |

20th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who was close up in the second of two handicap hurdles (2m3f, good) but was poised to better that by some way when misjudging the second last and coming down on his chase debut at Bangor (2m1f, soft) 22 days ago; major player if none the worse. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 205y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won here over 2m1f (good) and an extended 2m3f (good to firm) last summer; subsequently lost his form in three runs; hard to gauge how he will run after a layoff but he would come into this if back on song. |

19th Nov 2025 Soft 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Won at Stratford over 2m1f (good) in June and an extended 2m3f (good to firm) in July; ran better than the margin suggests at Worcester in August; suffered a seriously heavy defeat back at Stratford last time, however, while soft ground would raise a further concern. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Has emerged from a spell in the wilderness this season and is on a hat-trick after two wins at Stratford (2m1f/2m3f); up another 5lb since last time but must be considered in current form. |

20th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Had few chances and although he hasn't looked ahead of his mark in two handicap hurdles he has shaped promisingly while looking the type to improve with racing; likely candidate now switched to fences. |

29th Oct 2024 Soft 2m 0f 11y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Hung right in home straight and was unable to justify favouritism when fourth on seasonal/handicap debut at Bangor (2m, good) last month but that form has worked out well, and he could still have a bigger run in him. |

1-20 over hurdles and 0-5 as a chaser; refused to race three runs back and tailed off since then on either side of wind surgery. |
