8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Better known as a hurdler and has had some jumping issues over fences (even when he won) but he kept on well for clear second in first-time cheekpieces at Stratford (2m6f, good) six weeks ago and gets another chance off the same mark here. |

Scored over fences at Doncaster (2m3f) last term; in good nick without winning over hurdles this season until 17th in Pertemps Hurdle at Cheltenham 16 days ago; back chasing here with cheekpieces fitted and no forlorn hope. |

Did well at 2m3f-2m5f when reverting to hurdles for his last three starts last season; not quite so good this term and he did not shout stamina when upped to 3m for last two outings; others have more compelling claims. |

Beaten favourite but ran creditably at Doncaster (2m3f) last time, taking form figures over hurdles to 222211142; that consistency gives him each-way possibilities back down in trip. |

Respectable strike-rate (Flat/hurdles) during his spell with Fergal O'Brien; encouraging placed effort at Kempton (2m5f; second run for new yard) most recently; won a race of this nature at Aintree (2m, soft; off 2lb lower) two years ago. |

Dual hurdles winner with his last win coming in December 2023; reverts to hurdles, having been chasing in recent times with little success; finished a 13.5l fifth at Punchestown in June (2m3f, good to yielding) off 116 when last seen in this sphere; others preferred. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Well below best during five-race campaign last season but took step back in right direction when third over fences at Bangor (2m1f, good) two months ago; remains on good mark for this hurdle return and could plausibly be better suited by this sort of trip nowadays; cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Well below best during five-race campaign last season and absent since pulled up on soft ground in February; had wind surgery the following month, though, and ought to be better suited by the forecast quicker conditions here; too well handicapped to rule out; swaps visor for refitted blinkers. |

Hasn't fired in any of his races this season but connections have tweaked the headgear and he has finished first and second in the last two renewals of this race, last year when fitted in new blinkers; daren't discount. |

11st 11lb |
Runner-up in two of her three handicaps, most recently at Chepstow (2m7f, soft) in February; has won on good ground; this lightly raced 7yo could have more to offer and is one to consider. |

9th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Maiden and novice winner who showed her best form when front-running second at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in November on handicap debut; she followed that, however, with last of seven at Doncaster (2m3f) 15 days ago; new trip is plausible. |
