26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Slow-ground specialist who won twice over 2m3f (once here) in February 2025; should be fine over this trip but is yet to strike form this season (three runs; bled last time) and there may not be enough rain for him today. |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Slow-ground specialist who won this race in 2025 (soft ground) and followed up at Bangor (2m3f, heavy) 17 days later; returned from layoff with two lesser efforts this season but still considered; usually held up in rear. |

10st 11lb |
Veteran campaigner with a C&D win to his name; goes well on soft/heavy ground and won at Chepstow and Bangor this time last year; probably needed run when last of five at Leicester on reappearance; more solid than most. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Suffered alarming dip in form after 2m3f course win (good to soft) last April but ran well from the front and was seemingly back in good nick when third over that trip here (good) last month; contender if able to build on that effort over this new trip. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won a C&D handicap (good to soft) last April but he's not come close to that form in four subsequent runs and latest was back here in March; has some questions to answer and he's still 3lb higher than for his last win. |

Bang out of form in his last three races but only four starts back last April he won as he liked around here (good to soft) off 5lb higher; couldn't put a line through him. |

Lightly raced 7yo who was a fair third at Bangor (2m3f, heavy) last month on his third handicap start, but needs a bigger performance today. |

14th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won 2m2f chase in France in 2022 but missed 2023 and 2024; best effort for current was a second back over fences at Lingfield (2m, good to soft) in December and it wasn't his fault when he fell early on at Leicester (got hampered) last month; conditions should be fine here and he's in the mix off a dangerous mark. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
C&D mares' maiden winner in April 2025 (good) on sole previous visit, and mixed signals since as to whether she's as good over further; some appeal granted the lowest mark she's ever raced off in a handicap. |
20/1 |

6th 8 |
23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won a mares' maiden at Market Rasen (2m, good) last April; runner-up in first two handicaps during the winter but she's been disappointing in last two runs; bit to prove but mark is sliding and she's had wind surgery since her latest effort at Fontwell last month; not ruled out. |

Placed over hurdles for Ben Pauling last year but ultimately became disappointing for him; changed hands after 40l defeat in first-time blinkers in March; goes without headgear on this stable/chase debut. |

Better efforts have been on soft ground and if the rain stays away this will be only her second start on a sound surface; each-way player based on her best form but needs to be much better than her last two starts; tongue-tie removed and blinkers now go on. |
