26th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Capitalised on a reduced mark in three-runner handicap at Ludlow (3m, good) in April and could improve for this month's 25l second of five on reappearance at Ludlow (3m, good to firm), when making mistakes; also effective on soft ground; possible player if jumping better this time. |

8th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
10yo who turned things around when narrowly beating an odds-on rival in a C&D handicap (good; 11-2) in April; been absent since then but he's only 1lb higher than for that win and has claims if he can pick up where he left off. |

2nd Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Commendable third off 11lb higher at last year's Cheltenham Festival (2m4f, soft; good ground also suits) but badly out of form this season (four runs) and is the one in this line-up with by far the most to prove. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Took the notable scalp of Haiti Couleurs on his chase debut last season and ran well afterwards, including a near miss in this race; poor the last twice (heavy/soft) when tried in a visor but the cheekpieces that have worked well for him are now back on; much respected. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Beat Haiti Couleurs on his chase debut last season and mostly ran well afterwards; seems back in fair form, as he went close at Ludlow and ran a lot better than a 21l defeat may suggest when visored for the first time at Wincanton (3m2f); that was his first time on heavy ground and it looked a factor in him getting so tired late on; one to consider. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 162y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Beat Haiti Couleurs on his chase debut last season when Isaac Des Obeaux was further back and mostly ran well afterwards; probably needed his first race of the season and he stuck to his task to go down by only a length at Ludlow (3m, good to soft); gives the impression he'll stay all day and a visor could work (replacing cheekpieces; looked lazy at times on that final run). |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Returned to form with clear win off much-reduced mark at Ludlow (3m1f, good to soft) in December but three non-completions have followed, most recently when he was pulled up back at Ludlow last month; others look safer. |

30th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Won this race three years ago and gained his first win since when drawing clear over 3m1f back here in December; since then he's suffered a heavy fall at Sandown and an unfortunate early unseat at Kempton but respected back here as he could still be in fair form. |
5/1 |

23rd Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Mid-race faller in the Stayers' Veterans' Final at Sandown last time; ended a long losing spell with his Ludlow performance in most recent completed start and he remains well treated on historical data, which includes a useful win over this C&D. |
