15th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 210y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Front-runner who is 5-10 over fences but the handicapper is beginning to look in charge and he worryingly refused to race last week at Market Rasen; cheekpieces are soon turned to. |
9/2 |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Free-going front-runner with 5-9 strike-rate over fences; unable to justify favouritism but still ran well before weakening into third at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last month, after a break, and could be hard to catch here if that run has brought him on. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 6 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Front-runner who is 5-8 over fences and he found more progress when runner-up in the Durham National (3m5f, good) in October; this is a different test on his return but he still looks on a workable mark and was successful over 2m4f last spring; has worn a hood in all of his chase runs but the headgear is missing today. |

3rd 1 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Made all at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in May when back over hurdles and runner-up at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) since; she can make mistakes and fell on her last chase start in December, but won over fences at Cheltenham (3m1f, good to soft) previously; respected under regular rider Lily Bradstock. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 |
7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Fell in her final chase run after a career-best win in a 3m1f handicap at Cheltenham; she's good over hurdles as well, making it 4-8 in this discipline when beating one other finisher by 30l at Fontwell last time out (2m5f, good); the handicapper didn't go overboard with a 5lb rise. |
6/1 |
|
1st 1 |
24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who showed career-best form when game winner of Cheltenham chase (3m1f, good to soft) off today's mark in October; not seen since first-fence fall in December, though, and may not be ideally suited by this drop back in trip. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
No shortage of racing or success as a chaser or hurdler and he comfortably made the most of a reduced mark in five-runner hurdle race at Plumpton (3m1f, good) in May, easily the best of his three runs this spring; back up 5lb since showing that best hurdles form but he has to be taken seriously. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 |
26th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with emphatic win from the front at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft), his third chase success, but returned from a break with two disappointing runs (chase/hurdle) towards end of last season and has something to prove. |

13th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
2-11 over fences and runner-up four times; a little below par 21 days ago at Fontwell (2m3f, good) but should give his running and have some say. |
13/2 |

3rd 2 |
22nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won two points in April and has finished second on all three starts since returned to racing under rules (2m4f-2m7f, good), most recently in refitted cheekpieces this month; nudged up another 2lb for that but it's reasonable to expect another big run here. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Ten-time 3m point scorer; same trip ought to be within range under rules, but he's won chases only at intermediate distances (including here) so far and was a weakening 12l fifth in this race last year. |

4th Nov 2025 Good 2m 5f 5y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won on chasing debut in the spring but has not built on that performance in the meantime and was pulled up when upped to 3m here six weeks ago; reverts to hurdling with a point to prove. |
