21st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Point/bumper winner who landed a Hexham novice (2m, good) in October but has a mixed record since and was only eighth of ten on handicap debut at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) three weeks ago; edging down the weights and is still unexposed in this sphere but others are more convincing. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Bounced back to form with narrow win at Kelso (2m5f, good) in May but that seems to be his favourite track and he ran poorly here (2m6f) last month; this drop back in trip is not ideal; not the percentage call. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |

Made the frame in his only two races at Cartmel; short-head win at Kelso (2m5f, good) five weeks ago, which seems his favourite track but he needs respect with that return to form. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Has won five of his 18 starts over hurdles, the latest at Carlisle in February (2m1f, good to soft); hasn't been in quite such good form since (fifth of six on the Flat last time). |
10/1 |

5th 4 (6) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Generally productive over hurdles but last few efforts leave a doubt over whether he'll be in top form returned to the Flat for first time since winning at Redcar (1m6f, soft) in November 2024. |
14/1 |
|
4th 6 |
31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 3 |

Has won five of his 17 races over hurdles, including at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) and off 7lb lower at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) this season; not at his best on last two runs but could bounce back. |

11st 2lb |
Looked back in good nick when scoring over C&D (good) in March but ran poorly and was pulled up at Uttoxeter last month (trainer blamed the good to soft ground); has become hard to predict. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Got back in the groove after three months off when landing a gamble at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) 17 days ago; back up 4lb in the weights but she still looks feasibly treated and has form figures of 12431 under Tom Broughton; key player. |

11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A dual 2m hurdles winner last season but she failed to take to chasing early this term before beating only one back in this sphere in 2m4f Wincanton handicap in December; she has plenty to prove after a break. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won over C&D (Class 5, good; same mark) last July; has mixed hurdling with Flat racing this year and wasn't beaten far when third over C&D (good; 7-1, Just Dottie fifth) 25 days ago; highly likely to give his running, even though he isn't a frequent winner. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Good fourth at Musselburgh in March but tailed off in his last run over hurdles and down the field on the Flat last week; others look more likely. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |

Tailed off over hurdles last time but ran well in that code in March; he's on a handy mark on last year's best Flat form; not ruled out. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Resurgent 10yo who led close home at Perth (2m, good) last month and has now won three times since April; unlucky to come to grief when back at Perth last week and remains of strong interest, albeit he was well beaten over C&D on his only previous start here. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Resurgent 10yo who led close home over C&D (good) last month and has now won three of his last four; probably doesn't have much margin for error after latest 5lb rise but must be considered in current mood. |
4/1 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Exposed multiple winner; he would have found the ground too soft when beaten by King Sacre at Hexham and then dug deep to win at Kelso (2m, good; 5lb lower); entitled to have some say. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |

Regressive 7yo who never really got competitive when sixth over C&D (good) last month; far too well handicapped to rule out but needs to stage a revival. |

8th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |

Not really firing on all cylinders since the winter but has slipped to a very tempting mark and, with blinkers refitted, was not beaten far when fifth in recent C&D handicap fought out by Just Dottie and Mack The Man. |

1st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 77y Class 5 |

Course winner but it's now 16 starts since his last victory and he came in a remote fifth of seven over C&D on Boxing Day; he's not one to rely on. |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 5 |

Last win was at Cartmel in August 2024 (2m1f, soft); best run since when third over same C&D in July (good); bit disappointing last twice, but no surprise if he were to run well. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Quick to make his mark for James Owen with a pair of 2m handicap hurdle wins at Stratford and Plumpton last summer; off the track since a remote sixth at Warwick (2m) seven months ago though, so needs to hit the ground running again. |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Dual hurdle winner for new stable since the summer, latterly when keeping on too strongly for next-time-out winner Ez Tiger at Plumpton (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie) in September; flopped badly when odds-on over fences last month (bled from the nose) but has strong claims here if back on song. |

Yet to run well at Kelso (three attempts) and well beaten at Catterick last time; however, he had an excuse (bled from the nose) and he won three times in the winter (2m1f/2m3f, soft/good to soft); not written off. |

10st 10lb |
11yo who was tailed off over C&D (good to soft) in November and pulled up at 100-1 at Ayr (2m4f, soft) last month on his sole start since; however, the drying conditions are a positive, with his last five wins coming on good ground, and he won two in a row over C&D last autumn to take his winning tally at Kelso to four; no surprise if he bounces back with a bold show. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 100y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
11yo who won three times last August-October (2m1f/2m5f, good); however, tailed off at Kelso (2m5f, good to soft) in November when last seen and there's a suspicion he may not want testing ground nowadays. |

17th Sep 2025 Good 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |

Back to winning ways at Cartmel (2m1f) in August and followed it up with a good third of nine in 2m4f handicap at Sedgefield 13 days ago; this C&D scorer can't be discounted. |

Regressive and inconsistent veteran; seemingly perked up by change of headgear when close second in refitted visor at Perth (2m, good) last month and remains on a very good mark but it's not easy to predict whether he'll be in the right mood again here. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Exposed; goes well on testing ground but latest win (off 10lb higher) was on good ground at Ayr in November (2m) when returning from a break; beaten 20l when eighth over C&D last month (good to soft; blinkers replaced regular visor); visor back on today; well handicapped, but a bit to prove. |
