19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
None too consistent but he has won five times over fences, latest at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) in February off 3lb lower; beaten a neck back there off this mark last month and his best chance of further success is perhaps back at that venue. |

31st Mar 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
None too consistent but he has won five times over fences and nearly made that six last time at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft); he's handicapped about right but needs considering. |

9th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Five-time chase winner, most recently over C&D (soft) last month; remote when third at Huntingdon eight days ago and not one to rely upon nowadays but he's still on a good mark if in the right mood. |

9th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who launched chasing career with two good efforts, latterly when second to Felton Bellevue over C&D (soft) in February; ran in snatches and was disappointing over hurdles here a fortnight ago but might travel better in first-time cheekpieces today and could still have potential over fences. |

23rd Feb 2026 Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Lightly raced maiden over hurdles who has showed improved form since switched to fences on last two starts; not yet fully exposed and reverts to hurdles off what may prove to be a workable mark. |

26th Mar 2026 Good 3m 6f 136y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Generally in much better form last March-October than in his three starts this winter; no impact in his four races beyond 3m2f and the bottom line seems to be that he last won a race in April 2023. |
20/1 |

3rd 4 |
9th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Chance if bringing his 'A' game but he hasn't on last two outings when tailed off at Fakenham (3m5f) and Fontwell (3m2f; both on soft); risky. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 3m 2f 54y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Running well since the spring, most recently second of four at Fontwell (3m2f, good to soft) in first-time visor last month; will probably find others too strong in this deeper race, though; usual cheekpieces refitted. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
1-10 over fences, the win gained over 3m2f on heavy at Fontwell a year ago; competitive in three of his four races this season and has a solid chance; first run in a tongue-tie. |

23rd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Off the mark over fences in four-runner C&D (heavy) contest in February; signed off with poor performance in April and may not find today's ground slow enough but probably still has more to offer over staying trips this season and the booking of Sean Bowen catches the eye. |
8/1 |

16th Apr 2025 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Lightly raced but he's going the right way over fences and was a convincing winner of a four-runner race at Fontwell (3m2f, heavy; up 4lb) in February; has missed engagements when the ground was good, including one last month, but enters calculations if this surface is thought suitable. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Four-time hurdle winner who made it 0-5 over fences when running no race at Uttoxeter in December; that was on heavy ground but he went well in the mud in 2023 and 2024, and is well handicapped if he can get his act together over fences. |

25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
In great form over hurdles last winter with four wins at up to 3m2f; has been generally disappointing since last success though, and was pulled up over fences at Leicester (2m6f, soft) in February; still unexposed in this sphere but he needs to bounce back after another break. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Displayed significant improvement when fitted with cheekpieces for chasing debut at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft) in January, making all to win by just over 7l; lacked fluency and was pulled up at Plumpton (3m1f, soft) the following month but has strong claims if back on song after 97-day break. |

9th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Maiden hurdler who was a very different proposition on her chase debut at Fakenham (2m5f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) three weeks ago when she scored easily by just over 7l; a 7lb rise could have been worse and there's stamina in the pedigree. |
11/10 |

18th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 44y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Unable to justify prominence in the betting when safely held in two handicap hurdles (2m4f/3m) towards end of last year but remains unexposed after only six starts and this switch to fences may prompt the improvement that has evidently been expected; sports first-time cheekpieces. |
5/2 |
