1st May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Landed the intermediate on this card last term (good) despite his customary habit of jumping right; listless display at Exeter on his most recent hunter chase outing and had to work hard to land the odds in a 3m6f Larkhill open since (good to firm). |
4/1 |

8th 4 |
17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |
12st 2lb |
4-14 in points; finished well to snatch victory at Cheltenham (3m2f, good) last May, his only start under rules, and comes here after very respectable second in Larkhill open point (3m, good) this month; today's ground might be slower than he prefers but he can still go well. |

2nd May 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Wide-margin winner of two 3m points late last year before an odds-on defeat when behind Liberty Rock; won easily at Exeter a month ago (3m, good), though was odds-on and didn't have a lot to beat; only six, though, and clearly in good form. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Creditable third at Cheltenham (3m2f, good) on rules debut just under a year ago and comes here after two small-field open point wins at Trebudannon (both 3m, good to soft) this spring; has a part to play. |
7/2 |

26th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
4-10 in points (2m4f-3m) but yet to win in open company; in good form in that sphere early in 2025 and signed off the campaign with a respectable third on hunter chase debut at Cheltenham (3m2f, good) in May; recent return may have been needed, but he'll need to improve considerably to trouble a couple of these. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Prolific pointer and very lightly raced under rules despite his age; ground it out over C&D two months ago (soft; 6lb lower) and the runner-up has done his bit to advertise that form; every chance. |

Made all in a match last time and in his two previous races he beat Padjoes Legacy and Mumbo Jumbo, albeit by narrow margins; on a roll and plenty to like. |

2nd May 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Useful chaser for Emma Lavelle; consistent pointer and closely matched with Clashhill on his penultimate run, since when he's won easily at High Easter (3m, good to firm); looks a player. |

4th May 2024 Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Placed off 7lb higher mark in stronger race than this at Exeter (3m, good to soft) in November but was pulled up on next two outings and was last of four (albeit not beaten far) when cheekpieces were added for latest run; now 0-15 under all codes and needs to up his game; drops back in trip with visor tried today. |

2nd May 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Very capable pointer but well beaten by Important Notice in February and a line through the horse he beat last time also gives him a bit to find with that rival. |

21st Apr 2023 Good 3m 0f 54y Class 5 |

Representing last year's winning trainer/jockey combination; pulled up in the Trebudannon intermediate Walkin Out won, but effectiveness around galloping courses well advertised across three wins since last May. |

2nd May 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
The ground was slow when struggling in his two previous hunter chases; clocked a similar time to Crawter when winning on the same card at Bitterley a month ago; only a 6yo and hard to dismiss. |

3rd 1 |
25th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Rallied well to win Friars Haugh restricted (3m, good to soft) last month and is now 2-9 in points; unable to justify prominence in the betting when last of seven on recent hunter chase debut at Bangor (3m, soft) but was not disgraced there and this race is easier; contender if aided by first-time cheekpieces. |

2nd May 2025 Good 3m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Beaten under 5l in this last year and then nearly won at Stratford; not at his best in latest point but won the time before and had previously given Clashhill a race at Horseheath; possible. |

The second of his recent point wins was a match but he responded well for pressure to make the frame at Cheltenham four weeks ago (3m2f, soft); remains to be seen if this tight track will suit him. |
