26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
10st 10lb |
Dual course winner (3m/3m1f); not beaten far when fifth of six in C&D (good to soft) contest won by Ballycamus in December and didn't run badly in competitive Windsor marathon last month; can't be ignored off this mark. |
6/1 |

18th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 162y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Front-runner who won two in a row in late 2024 (3m1f/3m, good/soft), on the second occasion off today's mark, and he ran pretty well over 3m4f at Haydock last March; hasn't run badly on either outing this season but needs something extra this afternoon. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Dual chase winner towards end of 2024 (3m1f/3m); only third of four behind Regarde at Haydock (3m4f, good) in March but wasn't beaten far; resumes on a workable mark and with Patrick Mullins a good jockey booking. |

9th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 5f 54y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won over fences here (2m4f, good) and at Cheltenham (3m1f, soft) in 2023, but contrasting performances in his last five starts; 2lb below his last winning mark, but not quite sure what to expect. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 3m 2f 39y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Absent since comfortable success in small field at Haydock (3m1f, good) six months ago; faces a stiffer task from 5lb out of weights in this better race and seems unlikely to follow up. |
8/1 |

1st 1 |
19th Apr 2025 Good 3m 1f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won smoothly on soft ground in this race last year (7lb higher today); handicapper has had the call since but seconds at Warwick (3m5f, good) and Haydock (3m4f, good) on last two outings showed that he should have a big say in this very small field. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 19y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
7-52; enjoyed the run of the race, making all, at Wetherby (2m4f, soft; 18-1; from 6lb lower) on penultimate start; ran to a similar level (third) behind the newly blinkered Rath Gaul Hill back there subsequently; no issue with Newcastle; player with Alice Stevens claiming 3lb. |

3rd 1 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
His last two wins have come over C&D (soft), the latest in January when last seen; also effective on good ground; this 10yo is inconsistent and has never won off a mark this high, but he comfortably made all last time and could well make another bold bid if he's on another going day. |

13th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won a handicap chase over 3m here in April 2025; fair form over fences last season (third over 3m here in April) and could go well on first hurdles run since February 2025; cheekpieces now tried. |
8/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Won this race in first-time blinkers off a pound lower mark 12 months ago (good to soft); hasn't run quite as well in three starts this season and now tried in a visor; a possible. |
14/1 |

4th 2 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Better could have been expected at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) last month but a case can be made on her earlier form, with a win at Perth (3m, good to soft) last April and an encouraging second on her comeback at Carlisle (2m5f, good to soft) in February; not written off. |

11st 12lb |
Lost his way for Gordon Elliott and sold on for 22,000euros; the form of his first three races for this yard stacks up well (from 2m4f to 3m) and reportedly bled when below par last time; definite chance should the wheels stay on. |

Returned to form and won four-runner chase in first-time cheekpieces in February but was pulled up on consecutive outings in the spring (hurdle/chase) and has done all his winning on soft/heavy ground; others preferred. |
