24th Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Very much enjoyed the run of the race when making all over 1m6f here 13 days ago; may not have the same luxury this time, but is just 3lb higher and remains unexposed in staying handicaps on the AW. |

1st 2 (2) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Useful jumper; 25lb higher when joining this yard and, after five defeats at big prices, he's run well to finish third at Southwell (1m4f) and Wolverhampton (1m6f) in last two starts; should go well again and he could be a big factor if he gets a good pace. |

3rd 5 (7) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Useful jumper; 25lb higher when joining this yard and, after five defeats at big prices, the money came for him at Southwell 17 days ago (1m4f); fared better in third on that occasion and he's handicapped to go well. |

9th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
In good form until a below-par sixth of eight in 1m7f handicap at Ayr 20 days ago; the sort to bounce back. |

6th 4 (3) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Without a win since 2023 but had a solid AW campaign before staying on for close third in first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft) on turf return in April; should be fine over today's longer trip; can make her presence felt. |
10/1 |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not the best of win records (1-26 but 0-10 on turf); only win was over 1m2f on AW back in 2023; sound third at Pontefract with first-time cheekpieces (retained) on reappearance last month (1m4f, good to soft); stays 1m6f but below her best three previous tries at 2m. |

3rd 22 |
28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 81y |
10st 4lb |
British challenger; dual-purpose; has won on the AW on the Flat but is 0-10 over hurdles; went close off 1lb lower at Huntingdon (20.5f, soft) in January; ground may have been too lively at Southwell latest; could outrun his odds back on easier ground. |

24th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
No match for the winner in his last two races over hurdles but both were well handicapped and returning to a longer trip looks the right move; on the shortlist. |
5/1 |

2nd 10 |
6th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 161y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Flattered by close proximity to one who hacked up at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) but still ran well; fine over this shorter trip and didn't run too badly on the AW last time. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
A four-time scorer (including here in 2025); in good nick without winning this season, finding drop to 1m4f against him when a staying-on sixth of 12 at Newcastle last time; this veteran needs considering back up in trip. |
4/1 |

6th 14 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Four wins last season included two here at 2m; never figured in this race last term but he's been in the frame all nine starts this year and was unlucky when fifth at this track in December on his last go at 1m4f; each-way prospects. |
14/1 |
|
4th 8 (8) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
10yo whose easily most successful season was 2025, with four wins; the latest was at this track (2m) in December and he's held his form, including over C&D, so has each-way claims once again. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; hasn't been in the same form in two turf outings since returning from a break but is back on his last winning mark and Phil Kirby has tasted recent success in this race. |
7/1 |

6th 5 (3) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three in a row over 1m6f on AW early this year; he was returning from a three-month break when weakening over 2m at Catterick this month and drops back down in trip today, but he has to prove he's fully effective on turf. |
