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. |
40/1 |

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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

Absent since slightly disappointing run at Aintree on Boxing Day but returned from break with two good seconds over 2m4f in the autumn (good/soft) and has good claims if back at that level here. |

Creditable sixth of 15 in Grade 2 novices' handicap at Newbury (2m4f, good) in March and rallied well to snatch narrow win in Market Rasen maiden (2m, good) last month; leading contender. |

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. |
