17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Held on well to exploit reduced mark in Newcastle handicap (2m7f, heavy) in January but was quickly back in the doldrums when pulled up (albeit in valuable race) at Doncaster last month; this hunter chase debut is much less competitive but it's hard to predict whether he'll warm to the task. |

Exploited what was a very good mark at Newcastle (2m7f, heavy) and the front two pulled clear; raised only 3lb for that but consistent he is not; others safer. |

27th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Represents top southern stable and he's very well handicapped on last season's best form; could stage a revival at some point but he struggled in the autumn on his last three starts and there's also a stamina query. |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Lightly raced for his age and was seemingly boosted by new cheekpieces when runner-up twice on good ground in the spring (2m7f/3m1f); should cope if there's rain about but we haven't seen him since a disappointing run in May; tongue-tie added. |

12st 1lb |
Won a three-runner contest at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) in April but beaten 61l when sixth of seven at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) five weeks ago; still 6lb higher than his last win and needs to return to form. |

The outsider of three when off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot in April (2m5f, good) and comfortably beat a course specialist; 7lb rise fair given the authority with which he won. |

11st 10lb |
He's just 1lb higher than when winning at Southwell (3m, good to soft) last March; Ascot in November was a step back in the right direction but he was still below his best and this 9yo needs to raise his game today. |

11st 12lb |
Won three in a row early last year (2m4f-2m6f, good/good to soft) before keeping on well for second over 3m1f at Cheltenham (good); returned from break with good second at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) last month and she's high on the list today. |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 44y Class 2 |

Five-time chase winner (good/good to soft; once over C&D); absent since very respectable third at Aintree (2m4f, good) last May but this race is easier and she features prominently in calculations. |

3rd 5 |
16th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 200y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Back in prime form towards end of last season, winning three in a row (2m4f-2m6f) before creditable second in valuable series final at Cheltenham (3m1f, good); ought to be right in the thick of things again here. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Both wins over fences came in March 2025; his season never took off last term and he arrives here on a career-low mark (11lb below last win); first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces; needs to show more. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
He's now 13lb below his peak mark but hasn't been at his best this season and didn't show much when back on good ground (3m) three weeks ago; won over 3m7f last March but there may be more solid options. |
14/1 |

8th 5 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
He hasn't been at his best this season but he didn't run badly in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Sandown (3m, soft) recently and could build on that now back on better ground, with last season's two wins coming on good/good to firm; now 6lb below last winning mark; interesting. |

17th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Exploited his reduced mark to justify favouritism at Hereford (3m1f, soft) in February and faced no easy task when beaten in a match last time (2m5f claiming chase); only 6lb higher than for that recent win which was fairly authoritative. |

6-16 over fences, the latest win gained in this race a year ago (soft ground; also suited by good); returned from seven-month with encouraging run a fortnight ago and should now be teed up to defend his crown. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |

Has a good strike-rate over fences (6-15), latest win at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) nearly a year ago; not at his best late last year on last two starts; now only 1lb above that win and Finn Lambert's claim will help, but needs to bounce back after his break. |
