11st 11lb |
Sole win from 21 runs came in a Listed novice handicap chase at Navan last March (2m5f, heavy) off this mark; badly out of form since and now makes stable debut with first-time cheekpieces replacing the blinkers worn the last day. |

10st 7lb |
Won a Listed handicap chase at Navan in March (2m4f, heavy) off 7lb lower so can't be entirely dismissed, though he could have shaped a lot better after a break at Gowran (behind some of these). |

Showed his best form last season at Navan, notably when winning a Listed handicap in March; capable of a good showing if fit and ready; effective at this trip, stays further. |

0-13 over fences; not unfancied for the Aintree Grand National when last seen but was well beaten; his best form has come in softer conditions so he may prefer a drop of rain; one of the more likely contenders if ready to rock in first-time blinkers. |

11st 5lb |
Ex-Irish mare who has been a bit up and down for Dan Skelton but did run well at Leicecster last time (2m4f, good to soft) given one notable mistake that she made; won't mind returning to further and off this mark she's entitled to have a major say. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
First three runs this season were solid, notably a win at Exeter (3m, good) in November followed by a close second over 2m4f at Cheltenham; disappointed at Hereford a week later, though, and pulled up on return from a two-month break 16 days ago, so now has something to prove; however, a bounce-back would not surprise. |
5/1 |

18th Feb 2026 2m 4f 11y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won at Exeter (3m, good) in November on second stable start before close second of 15 to Party Vibes at Cheltenham (2m4f, good to soft) in December; her run at Hereford seven days later may have come too soon (3m1f, soft; ground shouldn't have been an issue); remains of interest for top yard. |

Very useful hurdler and last track success came here in 3m beginners chase just over a year ago (yielding) for Gordon Elliott; well held here in 2m6f handicap in November and reported to have bled from the nose when pulled up in 3m2f Cheltenham handicap on New Year's Day, having not jumped well; questions to answer on cross-country debut. |

10st 13lb |
A little in the doldrums before finishing second in a 2m6f Listed handicap hurdle at Galway in August and then ran well to be third in a chase at Sligo, though old jumping issues resurfaced late on; that part of his game will be tested around here in this big field and he might not stay the trip anyway. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 27y |

Bounced back to form with a fine effort in a listed handicap hurdle at the Galway Festival in August; jumping has been an issue at times in this sphere and with a rating of 133, has a lot to find with Jesse Evans on the figures. |
