14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Opened his account for the season when making all in seven-runner handicap chase at Uttoxeter (3m) in July; up 4lb and this is tougher but this game front-runner can't be totally dismissed. |

26th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Multiple chase winner who did well last season but he failed to fire behind Imperial Alex in last month's Summer Cup here and was no better returned to hurdles 16 days ago. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Seven-time chase winner who developed into a useful performer last season; below form at Uttoxeter recently and tricky to weigh up over hurdles but still looks tempting, given he's 27lb lower in this sphere. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 3m 1f 60y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Very useful in Ireland in his prime but 0-7 and generally very disappointing for Evan Williams since last autumn; returns from break on another career-low mark but considered only if lively in the betting. |

14th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
High-class hurdler/chaser in his prime but has struggled for a long time now and although this is a welcome drop in grade he continues with something to prove; cheekpieces discarded. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Showed the benefit of a fourth wind operation when winning over hurdles at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in May and only narrowly denied by an in-form Skelton horse off 3lb higher two weeks later; below par since but he returns to fences on a competitive mark. |
9/2 |

5th 1 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Showed the benefit of a break and his latest wind op when making all at Fontwell (2m3f, good) last month; again ran well when close second of three over C&D (good) a fortnight later; respected. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 4 |
27th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Pulled up in his final two runs last year but he returned after wind surgery with a front-running win at Fontwell (2m3f, good; 22-1) this month; this is a different test but he won over fences here (3m2f) last spring and 3lb rise for that last success looks fair; respected. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Took this prize in 2024 but was having only her second run over fences when beating just one in 3m2f handicap here in May; now returns to hurdling after a short break and has claims if she can bounce back. |
7/2 |

14th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Bumper winner who was off the mark over hurdles here last July; there wasn't much wrong with her chase debut here (2m5f, soft) in September and she should go on from that following a good comeback against an in-form rival in a Chepstow hurdle (2m7f, good) last month. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Largely disappointing since winning at Hereford (3m1f, good) in October and found no immediate benefit from wind surgery when a 27l fourth of six at Fontwell (3m2f, good) a fortnight ago; entitled to improve for that but has something to prove at present. |
14/1 |
|
4th 3 |
6th Sep 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Now 3lb lower than for narrow win at Hereford (3m1f, good) in October but largely disappointing since; reportedly made respiratory noise when well beaten at Newton Abbot in June and was given wind op during subsequent 75-day break; sometimes wears cheekpieces but doesn't today. |
9/2 |
|
6th 7 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Returned from break with 36l defeat in April but last month's Fontwell fourth (3m2f, good) was more encouraging and the cheekpieces (worn for the second of last year's two chase wins) are now back on; won't mind if the ground is quicker than good; can't be ruled out. |
