10st 11lb |
2-13 over hurdles, the latter win gained off this mark over C&D (good) last summer; has lost his way a bit since, though, and was safely held off his lower chase mark last month; others have more pressing claims. |

Scored over fences in April 2025 on heavy, and has won twice over hurdles since but has lost his form in that sphere; now returns to fences; hard to fancy. |

10yo who has come a long way down the weights and he's had a sticky period since finishing second at Market Rasen five runs back; however, coming back from 3m could be a good move. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Difficult times since back from absence last June but he's dropped a long way in the weights and there have been some signs of life; non-stayer over the extended 3m3f at Stratford recently (Carpe Diem runner-up) but he didn't run badly and better is expected. |

Back with his former trainer on his last five starts; landed a four-timer for this yard in 2023; hasn't won since and has failed to complete on his last two starts; visor worn last time is left off; well handicapped if able to return to anywhere near his best form. |

All eight Flat wins have been on the AW, though he's won twice over hurdles at up to 2m4f; very capable at the right level but this isn't it; faces a mammoth task on all the figures. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |

Highly fruitful in his two and a half years with this yard, including two wins (Flat/hurdles) this February/March; needs to bounce back from a rare flop but the chief concern is his 0-15 record on Flat turf. |

11st 3lb |
2-2 under Jack Hogan since returning from a seven-month break, keeping on well for Warwick (3m1f) and Fontwell (3m2f) good-ground successes; latest 6lb rise demands more, but she's progressing at a similar rate. |

Kept on well to score at Warwick (3m1f, good) three weeks ago and is now 2-7 over hurdles; that looked a modest race and she's 6lb higher here but at least we know she's in good nick. |

40-1 when making a successful handicap debut last summer and probably better again when beaten 2l at Plumpton the final time (3m1f, good); off since September which is a slight concern, but this race has no depth. |

Improved to win off lowly hurdle mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) in May last year; made satisfactory chase debut when fourth over C&D (good) last September but has been off since; this looks a tough assignment on his return. |

Got off the mark at Southwell in July and creditable second in two handicaps here since, all on good ground over about 2m5f; well worth a go at this longer trip and has strong each-way claims again. |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Sole win was an AW Flat race in 2022; easily his best show in eight appearances over hurdles was on latest start when second of six in handicap at Fontwell (near 2m6f, good) in June, giving some encouragement for this trip but he's now 4lb out of the handicap. |

10th Jun 2025 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Arguably ran a bit better than eventual 24l defeat suggests when sixth here (3m2f, good; Trevor's Lad close second) last month and may benefit from today's drop back in trip but, overall, his hurdling record is poor. |

25th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Struggled over hurdles in the 2023-24 season and, following a layoff, was pulled up at Plumpton (3m1f, good) this month; might have needed that outing and remains unexposed over this sort of trip but is not easily recommended from 8lb out of the weights. |

Pulled up in his final run during winter but that was in the mud and he won by 7l over this trip at Exeter (good to soft) in December; looks interesting on that form and he needs a close look back from five months off. |

Back-to-back 3m2f wins at Fontwell and Newton Abbot last October (good and good to soft) suggest he'll enjoy this sharp track but the drop back from a stayers' trip doesn't rate an obvious plus. |

0-12 over hurdles but came good in C&D (good) chase this month, his second start over fences, and battled gamely to follow up in conditional jockeys' race at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good to soft) on Saturday; escapes a penalty here and has obvious claims. |
