23rd May 2026 Good 2m 1f 77y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has five wins over fences, the latest at Sedgefield last September off 5lb lower; should strip fitter for a recent fourth over hurdles but may need to come down a few pounds. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time chase winner who was placed on hurdle return at Kempton (2m, good) in October; absent since lesser effort in November but current mark is workable if he's fully tuned up. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Resumed winning ways over fences at Stratford (2m1f) in March but below par both runs since, beating just one in 2m4f Warwick handicap chase last month; needs to take a big step forward back in this sphere. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Landed his fourth win over fences at Stratford in March (2m1f, soft) but his Huntingdon third was remote and some inconsistency has crept in. |

3rd 4 |
4th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Back to his best after a three-month break when landing his fourth win over fences at Stratford (2m1f, soft) last month; up 5lb but recorded back-to-back victories around this time last year so not to be taken lightly. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won a maiden hurdle at Huntingdon in April (2m, good) and improved on his first try over fences when 1.75l third over C&D last time (soft); contender. |
5/2 |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 77y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Came good over hurdles at eighth attempt, easily justifying skinny odds in modest Huntingdon maiden (2m, good) in April; tackles stronger opposition and has fitness to prove on this chasing debut but still has possibilities if he takes well to fences. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 |
11th Apr 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Slightly disappointing when only fifth at Fontwell (2m1f, good) a fortnight ago and now 0-7 over hurdles but ran well from the front when close second at Southwell (2m, good to soft) two starts ago and has strong claims in a modest race here. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Front-runner whose two wins last year came at Sedgefield when making all; has had excuses since returning from a short break in May, possibly stretching his stamina over 2m5f first time and finding the race coming too soon latest; only 1lb higher than for his latest win but needs to step up. |
10/1 |

4th 2 |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Front-runner whose two wins last year came at Sedgefield when making all; his suspect stamina gave out in a match at Hereford (2m5f, good) 18 days ago but this track back down in trip should play to his strengths; regular hood returns after being omitted last time. |
13/8 |
|
2nd 2 |
12th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 194y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Front-runner; won twice at Sedgefield last year (good to firm/good; up to extended 2m3f) and returned from a break to finish third of five at Plumpton (2m1f, good to soft) in March, not beaten far; could be tough to reel in. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has won four chases and latest was at Newcastle in October (2m4f, good); well handicapped on that form but he's been disappointing since and was pulled up at Perth two weeks ago. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Has won four chases, all over this trip, the latest at Newcastle in October (good); fair third at Hexham last time (2m4f, good); a possible. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 4 |

13th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Wetherby (2m, soft) in December and has continued in good form, finishing second on his last two starts (1m7f/2m1f, good to soft); very solid claims. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Record of 212 since switched back to hurdles from chasing, the win at Wetherby (2m, soft) in first-time cheekpieces; Musselburgh effort (1m7f, good to soft) last time resulted in a career-best RPR; should go well in the retained headgear. |
11/2 |

25th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Both his wins have been over 1m7f at Catterick, the latest off this mark in February 2024 (soft); several fair efforts since, including after a 325-day break last time; each-way chance. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Ended last year with a brave win at Catterick (1m7f, good to soft) but he's not gone on from that in two runs this summer; needs to raise his game but he's now only 1lb higher than for his last success and his first two chase wins were over C&D (good). |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Market Rasen regular, with three wins, two of those in a visor over fences (2m1f); just did enough to prevail at Catterick (2m; from 2lb lower) in December and looked in need of the comeback run at Cartmel (weakened quickly) 16 days ago; don't discount. |
13/2 |
|
4th 5 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Runner-up on his only previous run here and returns on the back of a third chase win, gained at Catterick in December (1m7f, good to soft; fine on good); if fit enough then he should be competitive off a fair mark. |
4/1 |
