8th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Behind stablemate Blackjack Magic when seventh in final of this veterans' series at Sandown in January and was soundly beaten in major Ascot handicap last month but her first two runs this season were very respectable and she's now 3lb lower than when winning this race in 2025. |

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 185y Class 1 |

Successful in two legs of the 2025 Stayers' Veterans' Chase Series but came up short in the Final won by Nocte Volatus; hasn't won a conventional race since 2023. |

30th Mar 2025 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
In-form mare who won four-runner veterans' chase fairly comfortably at Carlisle (3m, good) a week ago and is now 2-3 since fitted with a visor; has 6lb penalty to carry today but is respected in her current mood. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 2 |
10st 6lb |
Won over C&D (soft) in February before respectable sixth of 17 in veterans' final at Haydock (2m4f, good) a fortnight ago; 11 visits to Ayr have yielded five wins and this is his time of year; could go well. |
16/1 |

6th 14 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
His last six wins have come in the months of February, March or April and he returned to form to win at Ayr (2m4f, soft) 40 days ago; runner-up in this race two years ago (soft) and won over C&D (good to soft) last February; that latest win reads well and a 4lb rise isn't harsh; possible player. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
12yo who hasn't been at the top of his game on either outing this term and was tailed off at Aintree most recently; however, this is the stage of the season when he tends to come good and he's 2lb lower than when scoring at Haydock last February; has won here four times, and on various ground. |

16th Apr 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Very useful staying chaser when on song and has pretty good record at Cheltenham; pulled up at Exeter two starts ago and didn't find much at the business end when third of four at Carlisle (3m, good) last month but it won't be a surprise if he runs a big race here. |

9th Feb 2025 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 2 |
11st 6lb |
Has an excellent reappearance record and won at Haydock (3m1f, soft) in December following a break; however, two lesser performances have followed from this 12yo and he needs to raise his game. |
