28th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Campaigned over longer trips since September but effective at 2m previously; currently in a consistent vein of form and looks attractively treated, having scored twice off current mark last year; landed this contest in 2024 to boot and holds a fighting chance. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Good-ground specialist who was a course winner in 2024 and returns here after two good efforts this spring, the latter a close fourth at Aintree (2m4f, good) 16 days ago; respected. |

11st 7lb |
Enjoys good ground; bumped into the enigmatic Numitor on a good day at Hereford last month (2m5f) but this 10yo also struggles with his consistency; he's capable but risky enough. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
His jumping has been an issue this season and he was soundly beaten at Newbury last time; however, two starts ago he was a close second of four there (2m, good to soft) and he has a good record at this track; might not be far away if finding some fluency. |
4/1 |

3rd 2 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Almost as good as ever this season and he kept on well when 1l second of four over C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago; a repeat of that form would see him go close, with a tongue-strap added for the first time in Britain, but a losing sequence is developing and he tends to make mistakes. |
7/4 |

2nd 1 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 92y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Resurgent in first-time blinkers when second to an improver at Sandown in January (good; fine on soft) and fell midrace back there last time; it's surprising to see cheekpieces back on (beaten 10l in December when tried in them once before) but he has a big effort in him off this mark. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won six races (five over fences) for Emma Lavelle; yet to fire in five starts for current yard; first-time blinkers need to work for him to rediscover his old form. |
6/1 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 180y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Back from 193 days off when a 16l fourth to Somespring Special at Newton Abbot (2m5f) and ran as though that race would bring him on; that was his best effort yet since leaving Emma Lavelle, for whom he was competitive off higher marks; trip/ground fine. |
8/1 |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 216y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Progressive for Emma Lavelle last term, winning this off today's mark and backing it up with solid placed efforts; however, he's struggled for this yard (early unseat in Kerry National, pulled up at Chepstow and tailed off at Cheltenham when last seen in October) and now has something to prove. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Free-goer who often makes the running and ultimately paid for giving chase to an improving winner when behind Garde Des Champs here a month ago; ran better behind the same winner the time before when he finished ahead of the Russell/Scudamore runner; a soft lead would help matters. |
7/2 |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Free-goer who often makes the running; well beaten when last of three on debut for Neil Mulholland in April but last month's third of seven behind Newtown Rambler over C&D (good to soft) was more encouraging, and he may yet have more to offer for his new stable. |
4/1 |

3rd 4 |
13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won a novice handicap chase at Taunton (2m, good) for Joe Tickle in January and fair third over same C&D next time; changed yards last month having had a wind op, and was a well-beaten third of three at Chepstow on stable debut (2m, good); hung right there so this track should suit better. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 199y Class 2 |
10st 5lb |
Had his troubles after such a promising start over fences for the Skeltons but he's back in the good books after small-field handicap wins at Bangor and Uttoxeter (both on good ground; effective on softer); returns to far classier company here and may be found wanting. |
9/1 |
|
1st 2 |
29th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Has regressed since showing such smart form for the Skeltons but looked back on good terms with himself when comfortably accounting for Fringill Dike at Bangor (2m1f, good), having led from halfway; back up 9lb but might well have turned a corner. |
3/1 |

1st 5 |
17th May 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Very well handicapped on old form but, following a long absence, did not really fire on any of five starts for new stable last season; not beaten far when last of five in Ascot race won by Coastguard Station in March and another 5lb lower here but still needs to up his game. |
