Versatile sort who won over 2m4f here on reappearance and has performed respectably over marathon trips since; stiff task from 4lb out of handicap last time; not ruled out back off proper mark. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Has three wins over fences, including one over C&D; not operating at his best this year and a pull in the weights from when third over C&D in February (soft) should not see him reverse placings with either Lumi Plugin or Enjoy d'Allen. |
10/1 |

24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ended a losing sequence at Fontwell (3m2f) in June but his more recent form is not so encouraging, a remote third of four in 3m2f Plumpton handicap chase 29 days ago; this C&D winner needs to revive. |

3rd 4 |
23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won at Fontwell (3m2f, good) last June and is also effective on soft ground; returned from break with encouraging third of five over C&D (good to soft) in December, but he's not easy to predict and was pulled up at Windsor (3m4f) last time; now drops back in trip but he needs to bounce back near best. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Commenced chase career with two wins; 0-7 since and has failed to back up reappearance effort in a light current campaign; however, this combination of a drop back in class and return to forecast faster ground may prompt a resurgence. |
4/1 |

16th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won two chases last season and gave good account when third on reappearance outing at Ascot (3m, good) in November; subsequent defeat on heavy ground can probably be overlooked and he'll be dangerous here if the first-time blinkers have any positive effect. |

17th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
No win since January 2022; shaped reasonably well when third at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) in December but lesser efforts at Haydock and Plumpton since temper enthusiasm; first run since January. |
10/1 |

4th 1 |
27th Jan 2025 Soft 3m 1f 152y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Returned to form when keeping on for third at Uttoxeter (3m, soft) in early December but failed to really build on that when a well-held fourth at Haydock three weeks later, albeit in a higher grade; hasn't won for three years but he's plied his trade at a higher level for some time and could find life easier contesting a class 4 with a capable 7lb-claiming amateur booked. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Pulled up three consecutive times after his two good-ground wins (3m/3m5f) in March 2025; back on a good mark now and was seemingly perked up by first-time visor when close fourth of six (just behind Enjoy d'Allen) at Plumpton (3m1f, good) last month but overall profile remains unconvincing. |

4th 1 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Has five wins over fences, including over C&D, but has been pulled up on his last three starts; back on last winning mark and first-time visor now goes on but he comes with risks. |

27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 214y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Won this last year (good) and followed up at Warwick (3m5f, good) a week later; also effective on good to soft ground; pulled up on final two starts last season but can go well fresh and is not ruled out on his return. |

6th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Something to prove regarding current form as he's failed to shine over fences this winter, but he's 1-14 in chases as opposed to 3-10 over hurdles, and perhaps the return to this discipline will trigger a revival. |

27th Jan 2025 Soft 3m 1f 152y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Capable stayer but has struggled with consistency; finished a 10l fourth at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) on Boxing Day, a race in which Vision De Maine was pulled up, but that was a laboured effort; handles most ground and has the ability to get involved but comes with risk. |
