4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Long in the tooth now but won here (3m2f, soft; refitted cheekpieces) in the autumn and was placed over C&D (good to soft) on last two appearances, more recently when keeping on to snatch modest second in higher-grade company; ought to make his presence felt again. |

8th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Veteran C&D winner who arrives in good nick, third of 14 over C&D last month; he can go well again off an unchanged mark. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Inconsistent 12yo who was well beaten at Kelso last time; however, two visits to Carlisle have yielded two wins (3m/3m2f, good/soft), the latest in November; firmly in calculations now back here. |

11st 4lb |
Dual chase winner in France in spring 2024 but 0-6 and generally disappointing for three different stables in Britain; well beaten in 3m2f chase on last month's debut for Debra Hamer; looks too risky in this 2m hurdle. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Scored off much reduced mark when back over hurdles at Southwell (3m, good) in June but all three subsequent runs were disappointing and he now has questions to answer again; new headgear tried. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won off much reduced mark when back over hurdles at Southwell (3m, good) last month and is still well handicapped on older form, but was soundly beaten on his last two outings and now has questions to answer again. |
10/1 |

20th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Exploited some help from the handicapper when back over hurdles at Southwell (3m, good) this month and is still on a workable mark after going back up 5lb but needs to rebound quickly from disappointing run on Saturday. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
C&D record of 2-7 includes victory in this race in 2023 off 5lb higher (good); pulled up in last year's renewal, however, and other results last term offer scant optimism on this return from seven months off. |
25/1 |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 2f 59y Class 4 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
No longer the force of old and very inconsistent nowadays but battled well for narrow C&D (soft) win over Judicial Review last month, his fifth course success; also suited by good ground and recent 4lb rise is manageable if he's in the right mood again. |
7/2 |

21st Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Four course wins, the latest over C&D in summer 2023; very much on the downgrade now, though, and never really looked dangerous when plugging on for modest third here (3m1f, good) on Saturday. |

24th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Has run well at this track and is very well handicapped on old form but pulled up on all three starts since returning in December from a mammoth absence and needs to prove some ability remains; blinkers refitted. |

9th Apr 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Pulled up in his two starts (heavy/soft; visored both times) since an absence of just over two years; old form suggests this better ground will suit but it still requires a leap of faith to support him in the added tongue-tie. |

11st 2lb |
Course record of 3-8 includes the odd flop, but also two C&D successes, the latest off 1lb lower last August; hasn't offered anything elsewhere since, and much depends on this place inspiring him again. |
12/1 |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Two wins at Cartmel last summer (3m1f/2m5f, good to soft/good); however, pulled up/well beaten at Ayr and Catterick on his last two starts and a big turnaround is necessary today. |
25/1 |

1st Nov 2025 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |

Hit some form at Cartmel in the summer, winning over 3m1f and 2m5f; up 8lb for the last success, which will make things much tougher, especially away from his local course. |

31st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 19y Class 5 |

0-19 over fences; ended a sequence failing to finish when a well-beaten fourth on first run back after a wind op at Ayr last time (3m, soft); 9lb out of the handicap and plenty to prove. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 3m 0f 20y Class 5 |

Scored over hurdles here back in 2023 but he remains winless over fences and was tongue tied when pulled up over C&D in January; needs a subsequent wind operation to spark major improvement. |

Dual point winner who is still unexposed under rules; not beaten far when fifth on recent chasing debut at Uttoxeter (3m, good; several fences omitted) but needs to build on that performance here and didn't get far at Hexham on Tuesday. |
