2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
All three wins have been over C&D, including in this race last season; shaped as though returning to form when sixth at Bangor last time; back on his last winning mark; one to consider. |
14/1 |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
All three hurdle wins have been on slow ground at Hexham (2m7f) and latest was in October; only 2lb higher than for that success but he's been well held in his last two starts; may have needed the run at Carlisle last month but this is competitive and others are preferred. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Goes well fresh for he has won twice after a break over 2m7f at Hexham this season (good to soft); these conditions suit; should go well after another absence despite rise in grade and being 1lb out of the handicap. |

Exposed 13-race maiden over hurdles; fair second off a low mark in a C&D handicap last week (good to soft); this is a harder race but each-way chance. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins at 2m, including three on soft going, latterly at Catterick in October; went back-to-back at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and fourth at Ripon (2m, good) on latest outing was close to his best; same mark, so needs to find extra, but he can't be ruled out. |
16/1 |

4th 2 (6) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Out-and-out stayer who won twice at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) at the start of the year but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; it remains to be seen whether a return to turf makes any difference in that regard. |
6/1 |

6th 13 (1) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Out-and-out stayer who won twice at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) at the start of the year, but he looks high enough in the weights now and makes a belated Polytrack debut. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Still a maiden and he underwent wind surgery before pulled up in 3m2f Sedgefield handicap chase in January; not one to rely on. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-24 under all codes; gave fairly good account of himself when fourth over C&D (soft; beaten about 16l) last month but is effectively 4lb higher from further out of the weights today and needs subsequent wind operation to have made a difference. |
33/1 |

30th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 91y Class 5 |

0-19; three good runs over fences at Hexham this season, last time finishing fourth over 3m; may find a couple too good. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
!6-race maiden; two fair runs at Wetherby in December (2m3f, soft); well beaten since (tried over hurdles last time); no easy task from 5lb out of the handicap. |

6th 10 |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |

7yo who is a longstanding maiden and it will be a surprise if he gets anywhere close to getting off the mark today. |

15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
0-14 under rules and 0-2 in points but returned from break with two respectable runs at Wetherby (both 2m3f, soft) in December and should be okay on this right-handed track; could have a say. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |

No wins in 11 but was close up over C&D (soft) in January and 3m3f perhaps stretched him next time; possible. |
8/1 |

5th 7 |
4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
0-10 but he achieved his closest finish yet when third at Wetherby (3m, soft) recently; wears first-time cheekpieces and might not be far away. |
11/2 |

3rd 9 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Well held in two starts since a break but he is beginning to slip to a more workable mark now; if handling softer ground than of late, he may be able to get more competitive. |

25th May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Last effort of note was when winning on heavy ground at Hexham (2m4f) just over a year ago; perhaps went off too fast there last time (especially over 2m7f; good to soft) but current wellbeing looks an issue. |

3rd May 2025 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won a 2m4f handicap here last April but things have fallen apart in just three runs since (form figures of U0P); showed signs of being in season when pulled up at Newcastle last month but she still has stamina to prove at this trip and both wins have been in the mud; down the list. |

3rd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 149y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Still searching for the breakthrough (0-9) and it is notable that he has undergone various courses of wind surgery; was already beaten when falling at Catterick (2m4f, soft) latest; difficult to consider. |
33/1 |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
He's popped up with the odd good run, such as when a close third at Kelso (3m, good) last May, and he can't be ruled out; however, following wind surgery he was tailed off at Sedgefield in September and has had another wind operation since; unproven on soft ground and needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |

4th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |

Seven-race maiden; his second run after wind surgery when a close third over 3m at Kelso (good) and now returns from another wind operation; hard to dismiss. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-11 over hurdles but comes here after making the frame on consecutive appearances at Perth (2m4f/3m, good) this summer and is not yet fully exposed at about 3m; each-way claims at least. |
7/1 |
|
4th 12 |
16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
No wins in 12 but ran his best race since wind surgery when beaten only half a length over 2m4f here recently; could build on that and should stay this far. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 7 |
3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Unplaced all nine hurdling starts, albeit he ran well when fourth on soft ground at Newcastle (2m6f) during the winter; recent efforts have been underwhelming; needs to raise his game. |
16/1 |
