27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 75y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Free-going front-runner who won four times over C&D early last season including this race; now 4lb lower than for his last success but he's struggled since returning from a break in May and was a long way behind Breaking Cover at Stratford last time; has some questions to answer and he needs to get back on track. |
7/1 |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Free-going front-runner who won five 2m chases in early part of last season; comfortably reeled in on both outings since returning from a break this spring, though, and comes here with a point to prove. |
5/1 |

4th 2 |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 10lb |
Highly progressive over fences in the first half of last season, winning here four times (2m, good to soft/good); 2m5f here appeared to stretch him last month following some time off; has a lower mark to work with back over hurdles and he could play a leading role back down in trip. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Won at Newton Abbot (2m, good to firm) in August and followed up in another small field at Stratford (2m1f, good), again under Chad Bament; in a better race here but progressive and could play another leading role. |
4/1 |

1st 1 |
5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 213y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
His good progress since coming back in June includes a commanding win at Newton Abbot (about 2m, good to firm) last Thursday; 6lb rise leaves him on a career-high mark but he's been on the up for over a year now and there's no reason to think his climb up the ladder has halted. |

1st 1 |
27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 75y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Record of 3-11 over fences and two of those wins were gained over C&D (good/good to soft); held in small-field events in last four starts but he was only beaten 3l at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm) last time and he could be dangerous back at this track; stablemate of Gore Point. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
A dual 2m hurdles winner but nowhere near that form sent chasing last season; the positives are a potentially good mark and the booking of Sean Bowen. |
5/1 |

4th 2 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
A dual 2m hurdles winner last season; nowhere near that form sent chasing this season, a remote fourth of six in 2m handicap here 48 days ago; others appeal more. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Won two handicap hurdles (2m, good to soft/good) towards end of last season but has not really convinced on his three chasing starts this term, with best run coming in race in which half the fences were omitted; the forecast ground here might be slower than ideal; others preferred. |
12/1 |
