4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Well treated on 2024 hurdles form but holds weaker claims on 2025/2026 efforts and needs to prove he retains the peak ability; chase debut. |

5th 4 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Won twice over hurdles in 2024 (2m5f/2m4f) but seemed badly to lose his way in spring 2025 and returned from 411-day absence with another poor run this month; drops back in trip with a lot to prove. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |

Has two wins over hurdles but was below his best in his last three starts, in 2025, and is still higher than his last winning mark; returns from a 411-day absence and may need to come down in the weights. |

19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Both wins over hurdles came at Fontwell; having just her second go over fences when solid sixth in well-contested mares' handicap at Cheltenham (about 2m4f, good to soft) in December; disappointed at Huntingdon over further next time but had wind surgery shortly afterwards and might be worth another chance dropped back in trip. |

22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Almost denied Easy To Follow in a heavy-ground hurdle once, but best figures win or lose have been returned on no worse than the good to soft of last month's tidy 5l sixth in a Cheltenham mares' 0-125; still early days for her as a chaser, appears to jump fine and holds strong claims. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Front-runner; having his 40th career start but a first over 3m when successful at Taunton and he followed up at Plumpton (3m1f; again good to soft); subsequent defeat, again under Murray Dodd, suggests others in here might be better treated. |
10/1 |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Showed improved form when stepping up to 3m to land his sixth success over hurdles, over C&D (good to soft) in February and followed up at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) last month; remains unexposed as a stayer and holds strong claims to land a three-timer. |

Front-runner who has been consistent this season and ended a long losing streak at Taunton (3m, good to soft) 11 days ago; went up 5lb for that but this track also suits him and he remains unexposed as a stayer. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Looked in excellent nick at Stratford (2m6f, good; refitted visor) nine days ago, dominating from the front and winning by 11l; could plausibly have untapped potential over this new trip but, on the balance of this year's form, might be vulnerable after recent 6lb rise. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |

Six wins divided between Flat and hurdling; her last success was over two years ago but she's run some solid races over hurdles this summer and was only beaten 4l at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) last time; respected with visor reapplied. |

Six-time winner who has his lowest mark since May 2025 (when C&D winner) but no joy this year and his last three results don't look encouraging; behind Son Of Man at Windsor latest, albeit after ten weeks off. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |

2-4 since switched to fences, most recently against her own sex at Warwick (2m, good to soft) where the form has worked out well; steps back into open company off 6lb higher but she remains open to progress in this sphere. |

Won three-runner chase at Leicester in December, her second start over fences, and her subsequent second at Taunton (also 2m, good) was perfectly respectable; may not be ideally suited by the forecast slower ground here but still features prominently in calculations. |

25th May 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |

Useful over fences and hurdles in his prime; three races this spring represents his busiest spell for ages and he was second of four over fences at Exeter (3m, good) on second occasion, but return to hurdling saw him well held over C&D (despite similar form) one month ago. |

Useful over fences and hurdles in his prime, winning four times at up to 2m5f; very lightly raced now but he showed signs of a revival when second of four over fences at Exeter (3m, good) three weeks ago; mark continues to fall and he's not ruled back in trip on return to hurdling. |

Just 1-13 over hurdles and needs to bounce back from last month's poor performance but was placed off 4lb higher at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) in May and his next run was much better than the bare form suggests; no surprise if he features. |

Yet to add to his maiden hurdle win in 2023 but fairly lightly raced in the meantime and ran quite well when third at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last month; still unexposed over this sort of trip; raced mainly on good ground; could have a say. |

Made the running for both hurdle wins (2m, soft) last winter; has found life harder in handicaps but better treated now and he was anything but a pushover for one on a three-timer at Lingfield (2m, soft) last month; trip query back at 2m3f with cheekpieces fitted but still respected. |
