3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Has continued to run well since his Huntingdon win in Februaray (2m4f, soft), last time giving everything in a narrow defeat over C&D; 2lb higher with Tom Hutsby again aboard; should have every chance. |
11/4 |

2nd 5 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Off the mark when well clear at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in February but paid the handicapping price after; it's been harder since but he was unfortunate to run up against one who relished the new 3m3f test at Stratford (good) in April, although he still ran well; major player in first 3m run. |

2nd 4 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Got off the mark over fences at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in February with first-time visor applied (retained since); in the money in two runs since and now steps up beyond 3m for the first time; holds place claims at least. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Kept on well to win from the front at Ludlow (3m, good to soft; front pair clear) in February and remains well handicapped on best of last season's form but he's too inconsistent to rely upon heavily. |
7/1 |
|
1st 7 |
26th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 171y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Ran quite well when second (albeit well held) at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) three weeks ago and will be fine over today's longer trip but he's very inconsistent nowadays and it's nearly two years since his last win. |
11/2 |

2nd 10 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Dual chase winner who is well treated on best form; not particularly solid on his results this season, the pick at Hereford when over half the field failed to complete. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Won chase debut in February 2025 and back to form with blinkers enlisted when second on last two outings, but all three of those runs were over 2m and there is plenty to prove judged on his attempts at 2m4f/3m; cheekpieces return and their previous usage includes that one win. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Took a step forward in a change of headgear when second of eight in handicap over C&D 22 day ago, hindered by a blunder two out; this C&D winner is a likely player if blinkers have the same effect a second time. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 8 |
12th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 201y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Opened his account when winning on chase debut over C&D (soft) last February but he's not come close to that form in four subsequent runs; overall record is now 1-21 and he needs new headgear to give him a boost. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Won from well out of the weights at Ludlow and off only 3lb higher he followed up at the expense of three rivals (3m, good), taking his record there to 3-5; has another 6lb rise to contend with but has won here and has to be taken seriously. |
13/2 |

1st 5 |
10th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Veteran who bounced back with 33-1 success from well out of the weights over C&D (good) most recently, taking Ludlow record to 2-4; just no certainty to follow up, having been inconsistent for a while. |
7/2 |
|
1st 8 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Won a five-runner handicap at Huntingdon (2m7f, soft) in December but this veteran has struggled in five subsequent runs; has lots to prove and he's a long way out of the weights. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Switched to fences this season and produced three good runs in defeat (2m-2m4f) before flopping in first-time cheekpieces when made favourite at Huntingdon in early February; could be given another chance with that headgear swiftly removed. |
11/2 |
|
5th 4 |
5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who has encouraging form switched to fences this season, good second at Ludlow (upped to 2m4f, good to soft) most recently; possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 8 |
15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 11y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who kept on for third in his first two chases, the latter at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) last month; could quite plausibly have untapped potential over 2m4f and features prominently in calculations. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |

Still a maiden but this second run since surgery, and only third chase/stable start, may be the time to catch him; first-time headgear is another angle. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Point runner-up who improved upon his previous rules form when 5l second of four at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in March when wearing first-time cheekpieces (retained) on his second chase/handicap start; this very lightly raced 7yo may have more to offer and could be involved. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 3 |
11th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Runner-up in a point but little show in a pair of 2m novice hurdles and pulled up on his chasing debut over C&D last month; cheekpieces are reached for now. |
11/1 |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Weak claims on hurdles form but looks a possible improver on this handicap/chase debut; showed promise in the second of two attempts in Irish points; interesting, especially if the market speaks favourably. |
