10th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 131y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Consistent and progressive since her attention was turned to fences and now 3-8; only had one rival to worry about in a 2m7f novice last time and made heavy weather of that, but even penalised this mare has every chance on all the figures. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Winning pointer/hurdler who progressed nicely over fences in the spring, landing a pair of 3m handicaps with ease; failed to justify favouritism in the Summer Cup at Uttoxeter (3m2f, good) in June but has been given a break since and this drop back to novice company, along with a shorter trip, could provide the ideal platform to get back in the winning groove. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Was 0-4 over fences but has won her last two, doing it very easily over 3m here two months ago (good); it's hard to grumble with the 10lb rise given how easily she won and this 7yo mare is clearly improving. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Brought down at the first fence in the Plate at Cheltenham last month; made most of the running when winning easily at Warwick (2m4f, heavy) in February and, although now 8lb higher, he was rated higher over hurdles earlier in his career; versatile ground-wise; one to note. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 44y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Fell in the Ultima last March but he has often run creditably over fences here and handles most surfaces; however, he's on his highest-ever chase mark following a Warwick win (about 2m4f, heavy) last month and now looks up against it. |

1st 5 |
7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Absent since clear second of 14 at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last May but it's worth remembering his narrow C&D (good) win in October 2024 came after a layoff; versatile regarding ground and current mark is workable; a possible. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Won from the front in first-time visor (kept since) at Doncaster in December; back to form when second at Newbury on latest start, his second run after his second wind operation; has a competitive mark but his inconsistency and going beyond 3m2f both introduce doubts. |
5/1 |

2nd 7 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 91y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Not easy to predict but he's only 2lb higher than when making all at Doncaster (3m, good) just after Christmas, and he probably went off too fast when beaten 33l there (3m2f, soft) three weeks ago; not discounted. |
11/2 |

2nd 10 |
28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 2f 1y Class 2 |
10st 13lb |
Physical issues came to light after disappointing in a cross-country race last time; wore just a tongue-tie then but the visor that worked so well when a 3l winner here the time before now returns, as does Charlie Maggs with his claim; however, he has become hard to predict and underwent further wind surgery only recently. |

He won a four-runner handicap at Ascot (2m5f, good) in November but has failed to kick on subsequently, proving no match for Genois and Outlaw Peter when fifth at Exeter (2m3f, good to soft) four weeks ago. |

1st May 2026 Good 4m 0f 218y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Former winner of Highland and Southern Nationals (good to soft), so surprising he didn't see out 3m here on January's hunter chase debut; back on track in a Siddington novice riders' point latest, additionally a first career success on good ground; safe ride (never falls) and not dismissed. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Thorough stayer who was very respectable fifth of 14 in quite valuable Uttoxeter handicap (3m, good) on latest outing in May; also suited by soft ground and has big role to play if fully tuned up for hunter chase debut; blinkers removed after one use. |
11/2 |

Won over hurdles after wind surgery and then ran okay to be fourth over 3m at Kempton in a race he won the previous season; there's nothing wrong with his mark and always a chance that blinkers will bring him on. |

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. |
12/1 |

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). |

9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |

Six-time chase winner but now appears to be on the downgrade; pulled up when bidding to win the Grimthorpe at Doncaster for the third time in February and was tailed off at Ascot (2m5f, good) 11 days ago; can only be watched at present. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 13y Class 4 |

Ran no race in Doncaster's Grimthorpe last month (3m2f, soft; blinkers returned) and he had a good record in that race; did run quite well there the time before; unwise to focus too much on his reduced mark when clearly not the force of old, but he has returned to winning ways from out of the blue in the past, and he'll enjoy getting back on forecast good ground; earns respect. |

Fared respectably in the Galway Plate before leaving Noel Meade for 60,000gns last August; tailed off over hurdles on stable debut before pulling up when 100-1 for the Grand National; an 11yo now and has to concede plenty of weight all round. |

Held on well to exploit reduced mark in Newcastle handicap (2m7f, heavy) in January but was quickly back in the doldrums when pulled up (albeit in valuable race) at Doncaster last month; this hunter chase debut is much less competitive but it's hard to predict whether he'll warm to the task. |

Well below best last season but exploited some help from the handicapper when winning in pretty good style at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) this month; even after a 5lb rise, he's still 5lb lower than when winning this race in 2025; good chance. |

Well handicapped if judged on his two good-ground wins in cheekpieces last spring (2m7f/2m5f) but has been well below best (in various headgear) in recent months; ran well for a long way before weakening quickly at Market Rasen (3m, good) last time and might benefit from this drop back in trip but others have much less to prove. |
