19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Last win was over 2m3f here in May of last year off 6lb higher; not quite hit the same heights this year and has been finishing his races rather tamely. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Not really firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in the autumn and has developed a tendency to finish rather weakly but comes here after two respectable 2m4f thirds this spring (cheekpieces added last time) and continues to edge down the weights. |

13th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Dual chase winner who was ridden much closer to the pace than is often the case when very respectable third behind Abingworth at Warwick (2m4f, good) last month; remains on a workable mark and features prominently in calculations; cheekpieces (tried once in early 2024) refitted. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Nine-time chase winner including twice at Cartmel; didn't fire at Worcester in May but that was after a close second at Ffos Las (2m4f, good) and he's a player if he can recapture that form; not ruled out for yard that won this last year. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Experienced chaser with a good strike rate (9-48 and placed on 20 other occasions); returned from a winter break not far off his best recent form when 1l second at Ffos Las (2m3f, good) last month; up 2lb but should again be thereabouts. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
All three defeats over hurdles have been in maidens; has since gone 5-9 over fences, last time making all at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) after wind surgery; off the same mark for his handicap debut as a hurdler. |
9/4 |
|
1st 5 |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won four times over fences last spring/summer but was beaten 25l at Lingfield (2m, good) when last seen in November; has had wind surgery since and is only 1lb higher than for his last success; must hold claims from good yard if ready to roll. |
3/1 |

18th Nov 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Mark took a hit for winning four of his first five races over fences (all handicaps) and was beaten 13l and 21l in his last two with cheekpieces fitted; those aids are now removed and he's only 2lb higher than for his last win, so hard to dismiss. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Successful over 2m at Uttoxeter (good) but out of form since, with recent 14.5l third at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) no big step back in the right direction. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Badly out of form since the autumn but has a first-time tongue-tie fitted here and is now now 10lb lower than when winning at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last summer; well worth a glance in the betting. |
20/1 |

18th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 194y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Drying conditions will be in his favour but this 7yo has been struggling for a while now on all sorts of surfaces; potentially on a good mark even from out of the handicap but he's a risky proposition at the minute. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Caused 40-1 shock over C&D (good) in early part of last season and posted a couple of good efforts here in June but was pulled up at Market Rasen last month and is not easy to predict. |
25/1 |

19th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Ran well behind Rocks Up Late three starts back and again back at Worcester when well out of the weights; a poor run behind Greenways since was a reminder of his inconsistency. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Ended last year with a brave win at Catterick (1m7f, good to soft) but he's not gone on from that in two runs this summer; needs to raise his game but he's now only 1lb higher than for his last success and his first two chase wins were over C&D (good). |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Market Rasen regular, with three wins, two of those in a visor over fences (2m1f); just did enough to prevail at Catterick (2m; from 2lb lower) in December and looked in need of the comeback run at Cartmel (weakened quickly) 16 days ago; don't discount. |
13/2 |
|
4th 5 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Runner-up on his only previous run here and returns on the back of a third chase win, gained at Catterick in December (1m7f, good to soft; fine on good); if fit enough then he should be competitive off a fair mark. |
4/1 |
