10st 12lb |
Won two 3m handicap chases on good to soft last season; slow to find his form this term, but good run at Musselburgh last time (2m7f, soft); chance. |

Has a slight question mark over current form but a revival would put him in the picture; gained most recent win off 1lb higher last February. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Kept on well to win from the front at Ludlow (3m, good to soft; front pair clear) in February and remains well handicapped on best of last season's form but he's too inconsistent to rely upon heavily. |

26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Ran quite well when second (albeit well held) at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) three weeks ago and will be fine over today's longer trip but he's very inconsistent nowadays and it's nearly two years since his last win. |

Dual chase winner who is well treated on best form; not particularly solid on his results this season, the pick at Hereford when over half the field failed to complete. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with two wins at Southwell (3m, soft/good to soft), looking in particularly good nick on latter occasion; struggled from just out of the weights in last week's Surrey National at Lingfield but enters calculations in this easier race. |

19th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 4f 178y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Ended 2025 with two wins at Southwell (3m, soft/good to soft); contests this much stronger race from 3lb out of the weights but he looked in particularly good nick on his latest outing and this trip should be fine. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |

The last of six chase wins was at Southwell (3m2f, good to soft) in March; very mixed since then and wouldn't be the percentage call. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
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. |

Unwise to blame soft ground when well held in the new cheekpieces at Warwick last time (3m2f); a repeat of his second at Ludlow in November would give him a shout, though that was at 3m. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Looked set to finish second before last-fence unseat at Hereford (3m1f, good) in March and bumped into revitalised subsequent winner when second at Fakenham (3m5f, good) last month; went close in 2024 edition of this race on only previous visit to Fontwell; good chance. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Soundly beaten in February, after a layoff, but looked set to finish second before last-fence mishap at Hereford (3m1f, good) last month, and this move back up in trip will probably suit (placed over 3m3f last summer). |
3/1 |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 44y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
All three chase wins have come over 3m at Southwell (good/soft) and latest was off 2lb higher last January; well held at Southwell last month but he may have needed that run after six months off and he's a player if he can get back near best. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |

Multiple winner but hasn't become easy to predict and followed two modest runs over hurdles with a pull-up on his return to fences at Ludlow; others safer. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Found Class 2 race at Newton Abbot slightly too hot last time but is now only 2lb higher than when winning here (2m4f, good to soft) in June, and today's longer trip probably suits him better; one to consider. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Overall strike-rate of 1-28 and the win came over fences; 0-18 over hurdles and has to bounce back from some shoddy efforts; in cheekpieces and a visor for the last two and now goes in blinkers. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Has questions to answer after two disappointing runs in July but is very well suited by this C&D and competes off new career-low mark today; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor; dangerous to ignore. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 83y Class 5 |

Five-time point winner and won a hunter chase just over two years ago; kept on well for a close third over 2m5f at Newton Abbot last time and this is probably more his trip. |

24th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |

Pulled up on consecutive outings at start of this year but looked in much better nick when second at Warwick (3m1f, good) last month; should benefit from today's drop back in trip; must be considered. |
