Inconsistent 2023 and while fifth of 16 in Chester Plate last May looked creditable, he like It's Good To Laugh has been off since; 2lb lower today. |

1m6f win at Sandown last July and beaten by a head over hurdles in November; those were two of the best efforts in a very in-and-out campaign (hampered on sole start here) and he was always behind when reappearing 12 days ago; wore cheekpieces on six of his last seven starts but they're off today. |

Some good runs in defeat at up to 2m last season; moderate efforts over obstacles were punctuated by an okay fifth of 12 at Bellewstown (1m4f, soft) in April; tailed off at Downpatrick over hurdles last time; cheekpieces go on. |

Landed a competitive juvenile handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last spring on good; fair form on the Flat at up to 2m after; refused to race on chase debut at Clonmel; stayed on to some effect in a Flat handicap at Bellewstown last month, ground should suit. |

9yo who has returned from a long absence in pretty good heart, finishing third at Chester (2m, good) then fourth from off the pace at Kempton (2m, AW; Molten Sea second); might not be far away. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Inconsistent for new yard in the second half of last year but posted wins at Musselburgh (2m2f, good to soft) and Nottingham (1m6f, heavy; when last seen); in the mix if at the top of her game on this reappearance. |
2/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (2m2f, good to soft) last month on second stable start and didn't see out the stiff finish at Pontefract (2m2f, soft) last time; she's not discounted now back down in trip. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Ultra game from the front when winning last week's 2m2f Musselburgh Gold Cup (good to soft); effectively 4lb lower with Ashley Lewis taking off 7lb, but she had a very yard race and this rise in class may find her out. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Often ridden by Lauren Young; 4-12 at Musselburgh, including three 1m6f/2m wins on good ground last May-October; also scored at Nottingham in October, a runaway win over 2m2f on heavy going which sees him 2lb higher today; returned to form when third over 2m at Musselburgh three weeks ago but this C&D makes him look vulnerable. |

4-11 at Musselburgh, including three 1m6f/2m wins on good ground last May-October; also scored at Nottingham in October, a runaway win over 2m2f on heavy going which sees him 3lb higher today; soundly beaten at 40-1 here on reappearance three weeks ago and, judged on last season, it may take him another run before he refinds his form. |
14/1 |
|
9th 13 (7) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Musselburgh specialist (4-10 here) who had three wins at this track on good ground last May-October; also scored at Nottingham in October, a runaway win over 2m2f on heavy going which sees him 5lb higher today; needs to hit a new high and may need to front-run back at this trip. |

Three Flat wins and he's 2-5 over hurdles; competitive in both disciplines since returning from a break and this scenario is ideal for him. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Made good start to hurdling career in the autumn, including when going close in a Cheltenham novice (2m4f, good to soft; has won on good ground); reappeared with a creditable third at Plumpton last month and he's feasibly treated on his best Flat form last year, including a sequence of runner-up efforts over staying trips; respected back in this sphere. |
9/2 |

3rd 1 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Useful Flat performer who made good start to hurdling career in the autumn, including when going close in a Cheltenham novice (2m4f, good to soft; has won on good ground); flopped at Ascot (2m5f, good) in November but has had a break since and retains potential now in his first handicap hurdle. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |

Back-to-back wins at Chester in 2024, but has never won on home soil; moderate form last year and same story in two recent outings; 1m7f too far latest. |

Irish raider; won twice over 1m4f at Chester in July 2024 (good/good to soft); mixed efforts since, mainly at 1m2f/1m4f as he didn't seem to stay when tried at 2m. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |

Versatile ground-wise and he wasn't far off the principals last time at Lingfield (1m2f); hard to call him well handicapped but entitled to have some say. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Held off his revised mark since an AW win late last year; not a bad effort back from a break returned to turf at Chester (1m4f; good record first time out in his younger years) last time and this is less competitive. |
8/1 |
|
8th 15 (10) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ended 2025 with emphatic AW win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) and came second on both AW starts in January (1m2f/9.4f); absent since lesser effort in February and not ideally drawn today but has two course wins (including a division of this race in 2024) on his CV; could have a say. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won over C&D (good to soft) last September and he's just 1lb higher today; won over hurdles at Hexham (2m4f, soft) last month on his second start for this yard and there's lots to like about his claims. |
7/2 |

1st 12 |
9th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 28y Class 3 |
10st 6lb |
Won a Hamilton handicap for Stuart Coltherd in September (1m5f, good to soft); subsequently changed yards and promising third over 2m here on stable debut after a break last week (good); should improve on that but yet to prove he is as effective at this trip. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Won twice over hurdles in 2022-23; has changed stables three times since and perhaps best watched after a break on debut for latest new trainer, although is well handicapped now. |

Runner-up twice in February (including C&D on soft) before making it 14th time lucky over hurdles in 2m4f Sedgefield handicap (good) last month; he and the runner-up came well clear of the third so he should competitive off 6lb higher. |

Last Flat win came in November 2023 and he's 0-12 over hurdles; however, he ran well when second off this reduced mark at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last Monday and can be in the mix if backing that up. |

Ran some big races on Flat in 2023 and three of them were at this track; fair eighth of 16 in the Chester Plate last May but that was his only appearance last year; dropped 5lb in his absence but whether this is the time to latch on to him remains to be seen. |

Ran as though something was amiss on last of six Flat starts for Owen Burrows, but some of his form in that sphere was very promising and he'll be fine stamina-wise over hurdles for new stable; interesting to see how well he takes to this game. |

Brother to Arc winner Waldgeist; this 4yo, contrastingly, is a five-race maiden but he's placed on AW over 1m6f and 1m4f in his two handicaps and this longer trip is plausible; sole turf start was debut last August (tailed off on heavy); cheekpieces go on. |
