14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 3m 3f 208y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Took this 12 months ago; winless since but he didn't enjoy a smooth run when sixth of eight in 3m1f handicap chase at Cartmel in May; no surprise to see this three-time course scorer play a prominent role back here. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 3 |
10st 12lb |
A three-time scorer (including over C&D) last season; hinted at a revival when a never-nearer fifth over 3m4f at Taunton last month so needs considering off a slipping mark. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Five-time chase winne, the latest at Ffos Las (3m4f, good) off this mark in October; has been below par in three runs since but his usual cheekpieces are back on and he may appreciate this better ground. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 6f 136y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Generally in much better form last March-October than in his three starts this winter; no impact in his four races beyond 3m2f and the bottom line seems to be that he last won a race in April 2023. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Chance if bringing his 'A' game but he hasn't on last two outings when tailed off at Fakenham (3m5f) and Fontwell (3m2f; both on soft); risky. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Running well since the spring, most recently second of four at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) in first-time visor last month; will probably find others too strong in this deeper race, though; usual cheekpieces refitted. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Low-mileage 9yo who has generally been very disappointing since returning from a long absence in November; battled on from poor position to take fourth at Ffos Las (3m, good to soft) nine days ago but still needs to respond positively to a change of headgear here. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Runner-up in Fakenham hunter chase (3m, good) on rules debut in May 2022 but did not reappear until last season and his first two runs in handicap chases were very disappointing; needs to prove some ability remains. |

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. |

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 |

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. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Form of October 2024's Hereford chase debut win (3m1f, good) has been consolidated rather than improved upon; fair record after long absences but realistically needs the wind surgery since last seen to elicit improvement. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |

Scored at Hereford (3m1f, good) in October and ended last season with a pretty good third over that C&D; not always one to rely upon heavily but enters calculations. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |

Mostly out of form this year, with the second at Perth in August proving a false dawn; comes with risks. |

3rd 6 |
18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
1-22 under rules and largely out of form this year, though he did go close over 3m at Perth in August before finishing a 22l fourth of five over C&D 11 days ago; has a chance on his best form but comes with risks. |
8/1 |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |

1-21 under rules but took a step in the right direction when runner-up at Perth (3m, good) last month; drops back in trip but win record is off-putting. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Still unexposed after only six starts but struggled in two Ffos Las handicap chases this spring (2m5f/3m) and is a long way out of the weights again here. |

5th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Unexposed after only five runs but showed no promise in novice/maiden hurdles last year and was pulled up here (2m5f, good) on last month's chase/handicap debut; needs recent wind op to have made a massive difference; 12lb out of the weights. |
