5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Scored at Chepstow (3m2f) in October but he turned in a rare poor effort when pulled up in 3m5f Fakenham handicap chase in December; cheekpieces are reached for now and he's the sort to bounce back. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Scored by 4l in conditional jockeys' race at Chepstow (3m2f, good to firm) last Sunday, taking chase record to 6-16; escapes a penalty and commands respect. |

11st 4lb |
5-15 over fences; looked as good as ever when placed at Perth (3m, good) last month, after a break, and was runner-up on his only visit to Chepstow; likely contender. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with two wins at Southwell (3m, soft/good to soft), looking in particularly good nick on latter occasion; struggled from just out of the weights in last week's Surrey National at Lingfield but enters calculations in this easier race. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Ended 2025 with two wins at Southwell (3m, soft/good to soft); contests this much stronger race from 3lb out of the weights but he looked in particularly good nick on his latest outing and this trip should be fine. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
The last of six chase wins was at Southwell (3m2f, good to soft) in March; very mixed since then and wouldn't be the percentage call. |

10st 9lb |
Unseated rider last time; two good runs over fences before that, including when 12l second to Camino Rocio (10lb worse off) over 2m6f here in November; 3m point winner so this trip should suit; place chance. |

7th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 10y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
In excellent form for new stable in the spring, winning three in a row under Fern O'Brien (2m4f-3m) on good ground; has fitness to prove after 116-day break and latest 10lb rise asks quite a lot of him but further progress is possible. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Got off the mark over hurdles at Huntingdon (20.5f, good) in April and followed up in a four-runner contest at Ludlow (3m, good) last month with Galway Reel 13l back in second; up 7lb and holds strong claims once again. |
8/13 |

11th May 2025 Good 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Mid-race unseat over fences on stable debut in March and got up late to win at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) three weeks ago when back hurdling; there's every chance the step back up in trip will suit and he could have more to offer for this yard. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Went close over C&D in May but has become rather unreliable and latest third here was quite remote; still needs respecting in this bad a race. |

7th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Stayed on from the rear to go close off today's mark over C&D (good) in May but has poor strike-rate in recent years and is unreliable nowadays; chance probably depends upon what mood he's in. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Veteran who was beaten just a neck when last seen at Fontwell (3m2f, good) in May, but he isn't very consistent and has a moderate strike-rate; others preferred. |

19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
12yo who is inconsistent and has been well below his best on his last two starts; however, before those he won at Catterick (3m1f, good) and he's won here twice in the past; not discounted. |
13/2 |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Winner at Catterick in December (3m1f, good) but a well-beaten fourth on softer ground over same C&D last time; could bounce back. |
15/2 |

21st Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
12yo whose form can be up and down but he's won on his last two visits to Catterick (soft/good), the latest over C&D last month when beating Mersey Street by a short head; he's a player if backing up that effort. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Form of October 2024's Hereford chase debut win (3m1f, good) has been consolidated rather than improved upon; fair record after long absences but realistically needs the wind surgery since last seen to elicit improvement. |
10/1 |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Scored at Hereford (3m1f, good) in October and ended last season with a pretty good third over that C&D; not always one to rely upon heavily but enters calculations. |
