3rd Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
In a new visor he won two C&D handicaps last August; hit and miss since then but the visor in which he has form figures of 115 now belatedly returns. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
In a new visor he won two 3m2f handicap chases at Newton Abbot last August; has looked too high in the weights since then and he's 0-11 as a hurdler; others preferred. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Won twice in a visor at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good/good to soft) last summer; untested beyond that trip and absent since respectable second of three in the autumn (without headgear, as today) but current mark is workable if he's fully tuned up. |

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. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Battled well for narrow win off today's mark at Hereford (3m1f, good; wore cheekpieces) in the autumn but was given break after disappointing effort in December and again ran poorly when reappearing (without cheekpieces) last month; the cheekpieces are missing again here; stablemate Prince Cleni has much stronger claims. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Landed his second success over fences, at Hereford (3m1f, good) in October off 1lb lower mark; second at Plumpton the following month but was tailed off at Wincanton when last seen; has been freshened up since and holds claims if putting his best foot forward. |

19th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
C&D winner last summer at the expense of Testflight who beat her next time in this race; another win on fast ground at Stratford soon after before a 20l defeat here; high in the weights now and she's been absent 11 months. |
8/1 |

30th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Beat Testlight here in July but not in their rematch; bounced off the fast ground when winning well at Stratford 12 days ago to earn this 8lb higher mark; had some soft-ground form back in the day. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Belatedly supplemented 2024's pointing five-timer with success at Ffos Las a week ago (good), seeing out the stayers' trip better than she sometimes has under rules; have to hope there's more to come, for although 1lb well in the penalty takes her mark just above any RPR ever run to. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Five-time point winner who has made the frame in all six chases, most recently when third at Uttoxeter (3m, good) 11 days ago; effectively 2lb lower here and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
5/2 |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
5-15 in points; launched chasing career with three good efforts this spring/summer (2m3f-3m2f), and good to soft ground had probably turned against her when she was below that form last week; 2lb out of the weights but can make her presence felt. |

19th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Sole career success came in this race 12 months ago and a recent close fourth here behind Edgewell should have teed him up for his defence; nothing wrong with his mark for all that he's 1lb wrong. |
4/1 |

4th 8 |
23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Has modest 1-29 strike-rate under rules but the win was gained over C&D (last summer) and last month's reappearance run was much more encouraging than his eventual 78l defeat suggests; each-way claims at least. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
20th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 100y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
1-28 under rules, his win coming over fences off this mark at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last July; has been off since October and needs to hit the ground running. |
8/1 |
