1st 1 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Back in good form in refitted cheepieces this spring, winning twice at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) before very respectable third at Hexham (2m7f, good); not sure to be ideally suited by today's drop back in trip or the switch back to blinkers but still considered. |

3rd 4 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Veteran who returned to form when landing a gamble at Newton Abbot (good; cheekpieces added) last month and followed up there 21 days later off a 6lb higher mark; now up to a career-high mark off a further 5lb rise but remains unexposed as a stayer. |

Veteran who returned to form when landing a gamble with his smooth success over C&D (good; cheekpieces added) three weeks ago; up 6lb but he beat a clear second last time and he's still unexposed at this sort of trip; big player. |

2nd 6 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won maiden hurdle in 2024; best effort for a long time when third of 11 here (2m7f, good; closely matched with Pike Road) in June but he was beaten too far in one previous chase start under rules, at Taunton last November, to have confidence now back over fences. |

3rd 8 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Yet to add to his sole win at Warwick (2m3f, good) over two years ago and recent evidence doesn't suggest a breakthrough is imminent; not dismissed completely but needs a revival. |
25/1 |
|
5th 1 |
9th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Sole success over hurdles came here over two years ago and his best effort came when runner-up at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) last July; well beaten in three runs since, the latest on chase debut at Taunton in November; cheekpieces worn last time are left off and doesn't appeal for win purposes. |

11st 12lb |
Consistent and progressive 7yo who made all to score by 6l at Lingfield (2m7f, good to soft) on latest outing; has fitness to prove after 137-day break but could plausibly be seen to even better effect on the forecast faster ground here. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |

Came good over hurdles at seventh attempt, gamely making all at Worcester (2m7f, good) this month; still unexposed over this sort of trip; further progress is possible. |
9/2 |
|

2nd Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Remains a maiden under rules, latest when given an attacking ride in first-time cheekpieces (retained) but ending up a well-beaten third of seven finishers at Warwick (2m3f, good) four weeks ago; steps up in trip but stamina may be an issue. |
10/1 |

3rd 5 |
4th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Her dam is Snow Leopardess, who won the Becher Chase for these connections; this mare has been a long way from hitting those heights but ran well for a fair way at Fakenham (2m4f, good) four weeks ago when back from a break, and she could build on that effort; first-time cheekpieces replace a hood. |

Three-time hurdle winner; fourth of ten on chase debut at Exeter where 2m3f was on the sharp side; should run well. |

4th 2 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 48y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Record of 3-16 over hurdles and placed in both her races following a lengthy break; she's not the biggest to be jumping fences but she measured her hurdles well; respected. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
25th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Dual 2m4f hurdle winner last June and she's held her from well since, most recently back from a 151-day break when a 2.5l second at Hereford 18-days ago ridden by Aimee Jones; likely to make her presence felt again off an unchanged mark. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
2m7f maiden hurdle winner here (good) and overall Worcester record reads 2531; this shorter trip is likely still manageable here, although he was below form at sharp Southwell over nearly 2m5f on chasing debut last time (beaten 19l); fair claims off 2lb lower; cheekpieces go on. |
13/2 |

3rd 2 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Just 1-12 over hurdles and ran poorly when upped to 3m2f at Perth last month; makes chasing debut from a workable mark, though, and his Irish point win in 2024 bodes well for his prospects over fences. |
6/1 |

13th May 2026 Good 3m 2f 127y Class 4 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who made the frame on his first three hurdling starts (2m4f, good/good to soft); ran poorly when last in action but moves up in trip for this handicap debut and should still have potential. |
12/1 |

9th Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Similar sort of form in his three races over hurdles, here and at Market Rasen and Uttoxeter (all at about 2m4f); last time he chased home the long-odds-on favourite; every chance. |
7/2 |
|

17th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Didn't want for fitness on March's return from 22 months out at Market Rasen (2m4f, good to soft), only just missing out in a protracted duel, and coped fine with good ground before his layoff; chance. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Returned to form in the autumn, landing a deserved C&D success in October and running well in defeat on two subsequent starts up to around 3m; remains on a tough mark but should be all the sharper for this month's reappearance. |
8/1 |
|
4th 2 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Came back to form in the autumn and gained a deserved success at Stratford (2m6f) in October, following that with two solid placed efforts off higher marks, latest at Hereford (3m2f) in November off 2lb lower and all on good ground; has a career-high mark to defy but is reliable and has gone well off a similar break before. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 174y Class 5 |

Landed Alastair Ralph a fourth win from his last six runners when powering home in the debuted visor (replaced) at Stratford latest (2m6f, good); player, though he has never yet managed to follow up a win, and the penalty takes him 7lb above the mark defied in this race last year. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Placed in three consecutive chases during the winter (2m7f-3m, good to soft) but this first hurdling start since March 2024 comes after a five-month break, so his fitness must be taken on trust. |

18th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 7f 3y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Creditable third over C&D (good to soft) in December, after a wind op, and probably bettered that performance when filling same position at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) last month; remains on a workable mark and seems likely to be right in the thick of things again. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner; seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces (retained) when very respectable third at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) this month but has become too inconsistent to rely upon. |
12/1 |

3rd 5 |
1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
5-32 over hurdles (2m-3m2f), including on good to firm; first run back from a break in April was encouraging but he's gone backwards since and has to be forgiven a poor effort latest; on a fair mark if first-time cheekpieces help. |
14/1 |

7th 1 |
7th Jun 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Possible to say he's been temptingly handicapped for a while now, but dropping into a 0-110 here for just the second time; some hope if getting a less contested lead than last time (C&D), which isn't a given. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |

Veteran with seven hurdling wins on his CV; returned from layoff with fairly encouraging 2m3f run three weeks ago and may be better suited by this sort of trip nowadays but younger rivals appeal more. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 3 |

Veteran who held on narrowly to capitalise upon some help from the handicapper here (2m7f, good) last summer, his seventh hurdling success; back down to the same mark now but had gone off the boil again when last seen in the autumn. |

26th Nov 2024 Good 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Just held on to win off a reduced mark at Bangor (2m7f, good) in September and is only 1lb higher here but he's getting long in the tooth now and wasn't quite in the same form on his last two appearances. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |

Returned from layoff with two poor performances last month but his fourth behind Red Panda at Worcester (2m7f, good) three weeks ago was much more encouraging and he's now 4lb lower than for last year's 3m Perth win; big player if first-time cheekpieces help him to build on that recent effort. |
