4th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
2m4f winner here over hurdles and fences with a little give underfoot, and possible excuses on both starts since his most recent success elsewhere (holding ground, pace battle); remains above any winning mark. |
7/1 |
|
4th 2 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who has raced exclusively over fences since joining Deborah Cole in the middle of 2024, scoring a further four times, including over 2m4f here last season; off the mark for the current campaign when shading a close finish at Market Rasen (3m, soft) in February but pulled up when favourite at Hereford since and now back over timber. |

Three wins last term; got off the mark for the season when winning by a head at Market Rasen last time (3m, soft; first two clear); up 3lb; chance. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 5lb |
Left behind by clear winner when second at Uttoxeter (3m, good) two months ago but has now made the frame in all four chases; 5lb out of the weights here but ought to cope if the ground softens and can play a part if the first-time cheekpieces have a positive effect. |

7th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Gained three of four chase wins over C&D and returns here after going close on final two starts last season (2m4f/2m3f; wore cheekpieces last time); holds no secrets from the handicapper but will be fine on the forecast good ground and has obvious claims. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 4 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 85y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
He's run well to be second on two of his last three starts (2m3f/2m4f, good/soft), most recently at Southwell four weeks ago; he's 4lb higher than last time but was clear with a progressive winner; high on the list. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Third in this last year; four-time chase winner (all at about this trip) but hasn't scored since November 2024; close second at Catterick (2m3f, good) on penultimate start but lesser efforts either side of that; remains below his last winning mark and holds each-way claims again. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won four times for the Skeltons but, following a good second on his stable debut here (2m4f, heavy) in December, he has been pulled up on three of his last four starts; hard to fancy. |
20/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Ex-Dan Skelton; went close on yard debut in December (2m4f, heavy) but then twice pulled up and was beaten 14l here 18 days ago (good); wouldn't be the percentage call. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |

Ex-Dan Skelton; he has pulled up in his three of his last four races but did go close when he did get round at Uttoxeter in December (2m4f, heavy; effective on good); he's risky but also capable. |

24th Jan 2025 Good To Soft 2m 3f 31y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who started career with an impressive point win (2m4f); duly proved suited by the switch to chasing at Hereford (2m; handicap debut) most recently and should build on that success; respected. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 3m 6f 121y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
If the ground is bordering on good then this 8yo could take some beating as he hosed up at Warwick last month (3m, good) on his second run after a break; the 8lb rise isn't the end of the world. |
100/30 |

1st 8 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Following a break he reverted to fences at Kempton (3m) 12 days ago and returned to form with a 3l second on his favoured good ground; that performance reads well and he's high on the list today. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 8 |
14th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Can go well fresh; returns from a break on a favourable mark, just 1lb higher than his latest chase win, at Worcester (2m7f, good) last July; bled from the nose when tailed off over hurdles in October so wellbeing unknown but has possibilities, especially if the ground is good. |

24th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |

Both wins over fences have been at Market Rasen (2m5f/3m); struggles with his consistency but if on a going day in first-time blinkers then he's not handicapped out of it. |

Two Market Rasen chase wins since last May but pulled up there in February and well-held fifth of six over 3m here since, taking his Southwell record to 0-7. |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Lightly raced for his age and was seemingly boosted by new cheekpieces when runner-up twice on good ground in the spring (2m7f/3m1f); should cope if there's rain about but we haven't seen him since a disappointing run in May; tongue-tie added. |

12st 0lb |
Needs to improve on his third-place finishes (modest/remote) this term but would be interesting if the ground is good; won off current mark at Market Rasen (2m3f) the last time he raced on such going. |
13/2 |

3rd 2 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won a four-runner chase at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) in March; two lesser runs have come on either side of wind surgery and there are some doubts about him on soft ground. |

3rd 1 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Pulled up at Perth in April when last seen out, but he ran creditably on his three completed starts last term, winning four-runner chase at Market Rasen (2m3f, good) in March; has since had wind surgery; return to shorter not sure to suit. |
