18th Apr 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
He can make mistakes and was pulled up at Fairyhouse just 12 days ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained); however, he jumped to the left and returns to a left-handed track for the first time since his promising second on chase debut at Haydock (2m4f, soft); won 3m maiden hurdle here; interesting. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 120y |
11st 2lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner, both at Ayr; best of three chase efforts came at Haydock in December when 2l behind the 124-rated Lario; has run well here over timber and he can't be fully dismissed in a new headgear combination. |
9/1 |

17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 86y |

124-rated hurdler was beaten 2l on his chase debut at Haydock (2m4f, soft) and that form has been boosted by the third who has won twice since; beaten 4.5l over 3m in a Carlisle handicap chase on latest; could do better dropped back in trip; chance. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Made the running and returned to form at Ayr (3m, soft) in February, where she was 1l behind in second (clear of the rest) when falling at the final fence; the winner has followed up; could be well treated off a mark just 2lb higher than at Ayr; has shown promise on good to soft ground. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Promising third on her stable and chase debut here (2m4f, soft) in November, when 5lb higher; however, two lesser runs have followed (3m, soft; C&D most recently) and she needs to raise her game. |
4/1 |

3rd 2 |
1st Nov 2025 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Runner-up on Irish point debut in November 2023 (soft) and made the frame on all five subsequent hurdling starts (2m1f-3m); makes chasing debut after 191-day absence but can be dangerous if fully tuned up. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Very lightly raced point winner who scored in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Uttoxeter (3m2f, soft) in January on his second chase/handicap start; open to further improvement and today's test could be an ideal fit. |
100/30 |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Irish point winner who was close up in two of his three maiden hurdles for James Ewart, both times over 3m on soft; finished last of the three finishers on stable/chase/handicap debut at Newcastle in December (2m7f, good to soft) but it wasn't a bad run; could improve and should be fitter; cheekpieces added. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won a C&D handicap on good to soft when back from a break in February; excuses for lesser run last time (heat stress); could bounce back. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Lightly raced 8yo who showed improved form on his third chase start to win at Carlisle (3m, good to soft) recently; also effective on soft/heavy; accounted for 13 rivals last time and he's a strong candidate up 6lb. |
2/1 |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Flopped at Hexham in December on second chase start and something to prove on the back of that; however, this lightly raced bumper and two-time maiden hurdle runner-up wasn't devoid of promise when sixth on his chase/handicap debut at Kelso (2m7f, soft) in November and is not written off. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Bolted up at Ayr (3m, heavy) in December on third chase start; well beaten back there last month but made a bad mistake six out; he'll be in the picture if rediscovering the form of his December win. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 96y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won an Irish point in May 2024 (3m, good to yielding); sound run when second in three-finisher handicap on chase debut at Hexham earlier this month; cheekpieces now tried; a possible. |

2nd 1 |
3rd Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Winning pointer but he's generally struggled under rules including in three hurdle runs at Ayr (3m/2m4f) early this year; still lightly raced and now goes handicapping over fences but he needs improvement after 209 days off. |

10st 10lb |
Winning pointer on soft/heavy; off the mark on chase debut at Ayr in January (3m, heavy) but pulled up at Kelso last time; could go well but drier ground a slight concern. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 2f 39y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Point winner who improved upon his hurdle form to win by nearly 3l on last month's chase debut at Ayr (3m, heavy); this lightly raced 7yo could have plenty more to offer over fences and is firmly in calculations up 6lb. |

21st Jan 2025 Soft 3m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Won an Irish point last February (3m, soft to heavy) and subsequently bought for £160,000; send off favourite when fourth at Wetherby on hurdles debut (2m, soft); should improve for this marked step up in trip. |

Lightly raced 7yo who was only beaten about 3l when sixth of 11 on handicap debut at Kelso (2m5f, good) last October; market helpful before this first run since. |

Chased home now-useful rival in an Irish point in April 2024 (good to yielding) but his two hurdling runs this year (3m/2m) have been very underwhelming. |

15th Oct 2026 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Point runner-up who also showed promise in novice hurdles (including here) in 2024; absent since pulled up in maiden hurdle at Ayr in January 2025 (wind op in interim) but he could be the type to relish the switch to fences, provided he retains his ability; handicap debut. |

Runner-up in eight of his ten starts, twice in points and six times over hurdles, the latest at Newcastle in December (2m6f, good); this looks more competitive; cheekpieces now tried; each-way chance. |
