1st 3 |
29th Mar 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Won at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) in December on second chase start and runner-up the next twice, including over C&D; also effective on good ground; below par at Leicester three weeks ago but he'll be a major player if swiftly returning to form in first-time cheekpieces. |

Won well at Wincanton (2m4f, good to soft) in December and a close second in his other three chases; raised 5lb for the latest narrow defeat by Immortal Fame but they did come clear; respected. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 75y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Returned from break with pretty good fourth at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) 12 days ago and will presumably be ridden positively again over this shorter trip but he's just 1-14 over fences and others in this line-up may have more potential. |
3/1 |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Absent since respectable fourth at Warwick (2m4f, good) in May but made all over C&D (good to soft) when fresh just under a year ago and could be primed to attempt something similar. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

2m6f winner at Stratford last October; another good run to be fourth at Ludlow in January (2m4f) but bit below that level since, last time sent to France. |

2nd 9 |
14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Got off the mark over fences in 2m3f maiden at Exeter in November 2024; winless since though and runner-up on five occasions, most recently in six-runner handicap at Taunton (2m7f) in March; needs to step forward on his reappearance. |
10/1 |

2nd 3 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
On a losing run but he's proving a consistent sort and came in a good second of eight in 3m1f handicap chase at Wincanton 19 days ago; he's firmly in the picture again off an unchanged mark. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Sole win since taking a 2m4f maiden hurdle on this card in 2023 came in a weak three-runner beginners' chase; respected on the form of November's Exeter 0-130 second (3m, good), however, with a tough task at the weights and (latest) desperate ground viable excuses either side of that. |

Winless since 2022 and he beat only one in 2m Taunton handicap chase 23 days ago on his second run after a long absence; has a bit to prove now. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 119y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Sole win came in a French chase back in 2022 and has shown little off a steadily declining mark in recent times; needs the change of stables to spark a revival. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Has had just the one win, gained in a French chase back in 2022, and there's little in recent hurdle form to suggest he's about to add to that; 6lb out of the handicap. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 82y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
10yo with a record of 3-30; has patchy profile and was tailed off at Warwick last month but he finished a close second at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft) on his penultimate run; looks interesting on that form and first-time cheekpieces could give him a lift. |

9th 10 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Similar type to Thankyourluckystar, being a 10yo who finished second at Southwell (2m4f) last time but seems unlikely to go one better in this field, against opponents who are mostly less exposed. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Currently in a consistent vein of form, having posted form figures of 2212 in last four appearances; ran creditably when bidding for Fontwell double (2m5f) last time; solid chance. |

3rd Mar 2025 Good 2m 7f 91y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Turbulent career and was deep in the doldrums for much of 2024 but he popped up at 25-1 at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) when nearly half the fences were omitted; back up 3lb but still well treated if the mood takes; yard 5-10 here in the last five seasons. |

24th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Pulled up on five of his six starts in 2024; showed some zest when ridden very positively in first-time blinkers (retained) at Huntingdon (2m4f, good to soft) this month but was well held in the end and remains a risky option. |

Ex-Irish 8yo; ran big race from the front when close fourth over C&D (good) on stable debut in October but was beaten when falling on next outing and was pulled up when last in action; needs to have been refreshed by 139-day break. |
