30th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Both wins over fences came in March 2025; his season never took off last term and he arrives here on a career-low mark (11lb below last win); first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces; needs to show more. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 97y Class 3 |
11st 1lb |
He's now 13lb below his peak mark but hasn't been at his best this season and didn't show much when back on good ground (3m) three weeks ago; won over 3m7f last March but there may be more solid options. |

8th 5 |
26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
He hasn't been at his best this season but he didn't run badly in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Sandown (3m, soft) recently and could build on that now back on better ground, with last season's two wins coming on good/good to firm; now 6lb below last winning mark; interesting. |

31st May 2025 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Won comfortably at regular haunt Chepstow (3m6f, good) in March and was probably unlucky not to follow up there (3m2f, good; in front when sprawling on landing at final fence) last month; went up another 5lb after the latter run, though, and may not be quite so effective on this sharper track. |

25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Record of 11142P1 here includes a Dunraven Bowl first and second and (latest) a cosy win over 3m6.5f (good; Stellar Stream unseated when beaten); almost three years since he last defied this 9lb higher mark. |

26th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Following a 70-day break he exploited a much-reduced mark at Kelso (3m2f, good) three weeks ago on his fourth start for this yard; versatile ground-wise; from out of the handicap today he's running off 5lb higher than last time, in a much hotter race, but he remains very well treated on old form. |

7th 10 |
27th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Lost his way for the Skeltons and troubles have continued for his new yard; did endure a slipping saddle here last time but now into the twilight of his career. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Lost his way for the Skeltons and troubles continued when tailed off at Stratford last month; limited appeal from 9lb out of the weights. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Four-time chase winner (3m-3m3f), on ground ranging from good to soft; lurks on a dangerous mark but has not been firing on all cylinders this year and has a lot more to prove than some of these. |
14/1 |
|
7th 4 |
8th Jul 2025 Good 3m 2f 13y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
3m3f Stratford winner last June but recent struggles continued when well beaten in that same race last month, finishing behind Ajp Kingdom and My Gift To You; did run well for a long way though and the return of cheekpieces didn't harm. |
7/1 |
|

31st May 2025 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Not firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in March (four runs) but now 5lb lower than when making all for clearcut success in this race last year and the cheekpieces (worn for that success) are now refitted for the first time this year. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Just 1-13 over fences but comes here after two good recent runs, the latter when a clear second at Uttoxeter (3m, good); still on a workable mark and will be suited by the extra distance today; respected. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
16th Sep 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Thorough stayer who won by 15l here (3m2f, good) last autumn and returns after a pretty good third at Worcester (2m7f, good) last month; significant rain would leave him with something to prove (unraced on ground slower than good to soft under rules) but, otherwise, he's a contender. |
9/1 |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Third at Cheltenham in April (3m4f) and similar form when a 12l second at Stratford; blew out in a first-time tongue-tie last time (replacing cheekpieces) and that's swiftly removed. |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Won this race in 2025 (good ground) and returned to form towards end of last season, latterly when second to recent big-race winner Havaila in Sussex National at Plumpton (3m4f, good); high on the list. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 104y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Won two in a row last May (3m5f/3m3f, good) and returned to form to win at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) last month following a break; this 9yo has never defied a mark this high but it may be within range if he's once more at the top of his game. |
10/1 |

1st 4 |
5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Standard-bearer for his yard; mixed bag in class 3s since the autumn, but back down to his last winning mark of May 2025 and zero stamina concerns; ground coming right again (all wins on good or good to soft). |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Resumed winning ways after six months off in 4m1f hunter chase at Warwick (good) 22 days ago; effective over this much shorter trip and this likeable front-runner is not out of things. |
11/2 |
|
1st 2 |
1st May 2026 Good 4m 0f 218y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Highly impressive 26 finishes in the first four (eight of them wins) from 30 rules/pointing runs for the Owens, with stamina proven up to 3m6f; all-the-way hurdles winner over 3m2f here just last autumn (good), and likelier than some to run his race. |
