18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 7f 176y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Unraced beyond 3m2f but should stay further than that; 15l winner of a major 3m handicap at Kempton last February but he's found his revised mark a bit too tough since (close second to Herakles Westwood at Cheltenham on New Year's Day) and is still 10lb higher today; others are a bit more persuasive. |

10st 13lb |
Always wears a tongue-tie; on a sharp upward curve when taking this 12 months ago by some 15l (on good to soft); makes his defence off an 11lb higher mark but on the back of a return to form at Cheltenham (in cheekpieces; wore a visor in this last year); course form here always ticks a big box and can run well again. |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Won in January in his first two chases (3m/3m2f, soft/heavy) then lacked fluency over his fences when second at Wincanton (3m2f, good to soft); bar one small blip he jumped much better at Kempton (3m, good to soft) 17 days ago when romping home in the Ladbrokes Trophy; hit with 12lb rise but that may not stop this highly progressive 7yo, who was very impressive last time. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 6f 136y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Last won in the North Wales National at Bangor (extended 3m5f, heavy) in February 2024 with first-time cheekpieces; best effort this term was back in November (four races since) but he's down the weights, back chasing and some headgear returns after two hurdles races without; yard going well too. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won the North Wales National in 2024 but nothing over either obstacle since; best efforts this term both recorded on slow ground here, albeit his C&D third last time owed most to the rider's perseverance. |

30th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Thorough stayer who is 1-16 over fences since his last hurdle race in March 2023; the win came over 3m5f in first-time cheekpieces in February 2024 but headgear is removed today; has easily the lowest mark of his career but he's inconsistent and hard to rely on; yard also runs Sparkling Duke. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Suffered early mishap three starts ago but placed on other four outings this season, most recently when second ay Exeter (3m, good) three weeks ago; ran poorly on only previous visit to Fakenham and would appeal more on ground slower than good but still features prominently in calculations. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Suffered early mishap on penultimate outing but placed on other three starts this season, most recently when clear second to dual subsequent winner at Leicester (2m6f, heavy) last month; might not be ideally suited by the much quicker ground here but still commands respect. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |

Goes well here; unlucky not to win on his penultimate visit but made no mistake last time (this trip on soft) and likely to go well again despite the 6lb rise. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Came good with ready win on seasonal debut at Lingfield (2m7f, good), despite jockey losing irons, and held clear lead before penultimate-fence fall over C&D (soft) last month; has to take a 6lb rise on the chin but still features prominently in calculations. |

Came good with ready win on seasonal debut at Lingfield (2m7f, good) despite jockey losing irons on run-in; both subsequent runs were perfectly respectable but he needs to kick on again to land this prize. |

11st 3lb |
11th attempt under rules when off the mark in a seven-runner handicap at Southwell (3m, good) four weeks ago with a second-time visor; 3lb higher today but has a big shout if that performance is repeated. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Seemingly back in good nick when second over fences in December but two lacklustre efforts have followed and it's hard to predict whether this first hurdle run since 2023 will rekindle his enthusiasm. |

12th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Runner-up at Wincanton (3m1f, soft) in December but never going after an early mistake when pulled up at Ludlow since, taking his overall chase record to 1-18; first-time blinkers replace regular visor. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |

Just 1-17 over fences, and last time's 5l second at Wincanton (3m1f, soft; kept on but never threatened) owed something to the late exit of Anytrixwilldo; mark unmoved but Rian Corcoran claiming 2lb fewer this time. |

10-28 over fences, including three 3m1f course wins; below form at Ffos Las this month, after a break, but is back on a good mark and this marathon trip will suit; must be considered. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Won five in a row last year (good-soft), including the 3m6f Highland National at Perth; has been rather quiet in last two races, as he was beaten 21l when third over 3m5f and then was pulled up at Kelso (4m); capable but a bit risky today. |
