22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
12st 6lb |
Eight-time chase winner at up 3m1f but he's well into the veteran stage now and has struggled in three points this year; this looks tough on these terms back over regulation fences and others are preferred. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Looked rather gone at the game last winter so connections and rider Jack Power have done brilliantly to get his enthusiasm back at his age; he completed the hat-trick a shade cosily at Sedgefield (2m5f, good; won on soft twice in midwinter) in March and another win is on the cards. |

Irish point winner in March 2024 (3m, heavy); 16-race maiden under rules; runner-up in two handicap chases at Catterick on last two starts (3m1f, soft/good to soft), on both occasions being beaten by an in-form rival who has won again since; interesting contender. |

Winless since 2021 and this veteran chaser arrives below par, only seventh of ten in 3m Southwell handicap 24 days ago; others are preferred. |

31st Jan 2025 Soft 3m 1f 54y Class 5 |

11yo who has been very lightly raced since winning off 14lb higher at Market Rasen (3m, soft) in February 2021; pulled up over C&D last month when back from latest long absence and has plenty to prove. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 133y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Good third at Market Rasen two runs back (2m1f, good to soft); hard to win with, but an each-way chance; new combination of headgear tried. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
On a good mark now (even from 3lb out of the weights) and arrested his decline with fairly good third of seven here (2m1f, good to soft; first-time hood) three weeks ago; however, this quirky customer doesn't always find much when the chips are down and has a modest strike-rate. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Made the frame on all four chasing starts during the 2023-24 season and is well handicapped on those exploits but can't really blame the slow ground for this year's three disappointing efforts; blinkers refitted. |

2nd May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins last season, the second off 3lb lower over C&D in October (good); hasn't been in quite such good form in 2026, but has had a break and can't be rule out. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 59y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Five chase wins, the latest off 5lb lower at Hexham (3m, good) in October; creditable second to very progressive rival at Wetherby (3m, good) on next outing but form has slumped since (hurdling last time). |

17th Feb 2026 2m 7f 16y Class 4 |

Stays at least this far and was in good form over fences for most of last year, but he has a bit to prove against younger rivals on his first start over hurdles in almost three years. |

21st Feb 2024 Soft 2m 3f 88y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
26,000euros 3yo; second foal; dam unraced half-sister to bumper and smart 2m4f-3m1f hurdle/chase winner Casey Jones; ran in two Irish maiden points last year, runner-up in October on second occasion; probably one for later on but market should guide on rules debut. |

18th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |

Unseated rider last time; two good runs over fences before that, including when 12l second to Camino Rocio (10lb worse off) over 2m6f here in November; 3m point winner so this trip should suit; place chance. |
