19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
10st 9lb |
Successful once during a spell over fences that ended poorly; two attempts back over hurdles represent no improvement on previous form in this sphere; difficult task in this field, despite receiving weight all round. |
22/1 |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Won over fences at Uttoxeter (2m, good) in June and ran well when back over hurdles there (2m4f, good) this month; remains on a workable mark and is 2-2 at this track; shortlisted. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Might have won over fences here in June but for a bad late mistake (2m4f, good) but, while her Grade 3 assignment at Galway can be forgiven, she was never at the races last time at Perth; could appreciate returning to hurdles and her mark is fine. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |
11st 0lb |
Maiden hurdle winner in 2024 has won three chases since and is rated 128 in that sphere; was second in a Bellewstown claimer in August when last over hurdles; a spin in the charity race at Punchestown can have him straight; valuable 5lb claimer a help. |

Four-time winner, rated 128 over fences, flat debut, top yard, respected. |

25th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Reversed previous C&D form with King Roly under an aggressive front-running ride from Sean Bowen here 17 days ago (good); that wasn't without the occasional scare over his fences but he's clearly capable of going well again off just 4lb higher. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Won three small-field chases in early part of last season (2m3f-2m4f, good) and ran better than eventual 18l defeat suggests at Perth (2m4f, good; hampered by final-fence faller) last month, after a layoff; will be fine over today's longer trip and goes on the shortlist. |
4/1 |

6th 1 |
22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Made a good start to his chasing career last year, winning three times between May and September (2m3f/2m4f, good), with two of them over C&D; also effective on good to soft, unproven on softer; he has a very solid record here and could play a leading role if fully tuned up after a break. |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Hasn't the best of strike-rates but both his wins have been here, the latest over C&D last July (good) when wearing cheekpieces for the first time; disappointing up in trip here last time (didn't jump well); may have to race run to suit him but will need to jump better. |
14/1 |
|
8th 5 |
20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 133y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Largely consistent 10yo who belatedly opened his chasing account at Perth (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces) last summer; absent since below-par effort in October but ran well when fresh here (2m4f, good) last spring and returns from latest break on a workable mark. |
9/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 3 |
10st 8lb |
Reasonably consistent and ran respectably on the bare figures over C&D most recently; however, still has a modest strike-rate, which includes a record of just 1-19 in the chase sphere. |

1st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
On a long losing sequence and he was tried in a change of headgear when a below-form fourth of eight in 2m1f handicap here 13 days ago; this return to a longer trip should suit though so he's no forlorn hope from a slipping mark. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 |
19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made the frame in two handicaps at Catterick (1m7f/2m3f, good/soft) in January before respectable third in claimer there (1m7f, good); continues to edge down weights and might not be far away; cheekpieces replace blinkers. |
7/1 |
