13th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 28y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
In cracking form this season, with three wins and a second, until however he went down by 25l at Bangor (good) on latest start; maybe the ground that day was not soft enough; major player if bouncing straight back. |
13/2 |
|
6th 10 |
21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
A lot more exposed than many in here but he's been in cracking form since returning from an absence and his defeat at Leicester was no backward step (2m4f, good to soft); firmly in the mix. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 25y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Has thrived since returning from a break in December, winning two of his three runs over hurdles before adding a third win of the season reverting to fences at Market Rasen (2m3f, soft) last month, each time under Benjamin Macey; he's up 4lb for last time but is very much a leading contender in current form. |

2nd 1 |
17th Feb 2026 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won twice over hurdles at Uttoxeter; yet to show the same level of form over fences in four starts but has come down in the weights and is dropped in grade; no forlorn hope. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 1 |
29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Two wins over hurdles at Uttoxeter, on good and good to soft; has mostly steered clear of slower ground and he's been no closer than 17l in three runs over fences. |
10/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Both hurdle wins at Uttoxeter, the latest a 2m4f handicap which never looked in doubt; raised 6lb and a 7lb claimer rode last time, but his trainer sees him as more of a chaser; considered. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 14y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
On a hat-trick having won for today's rider at Wetherby in March (1m7f, good) and at Market Rasen in April (2m3f, good); has gone up 10lb, but these conditions suit and he could go well again. |
3/1 |
|
1st 4 |
14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 34y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who has returned to chasing in recent weeks and was a clearcut winner at Wetherby (1m7f, good) on his latest outing; features prominently in calculations. |
11/2 |
|
1st 5 |
27th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 36y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Somewhat similar to Zero Tolerance, being an exposed sort whose chase record is 0-8; the difference is that he's a five-time hurdles winner, most recently off 5lb higher at Wetherby (2m3f) in October; recent form suggests this drop in trip is worth exploring; interesting back here. |

16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Claims on March's Newcastle third (2m4f, good to soft), but cosmetically respectable form figures this year disguise one or two heavy defeats, this trip as much the issue as her jumping left at Fakenham latest. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Slightly disappointing at Southwell 12 days ago and now 0-6 over fences but her close third at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) was a pretty good effort and she has possibilities here if stamina holds out on first venture beyond about 2m5f. |
6/1 |
|
4th 6 |
1st Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Yet to win over fences but has performed with credit when reaching the frame on her last two starts, latterly third of eight over 2m4f at Newcastle (good to soft) four weeks ago. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Standing dish here with all five career wins having come at the venue and on slow ground, including over this trip; produced one of his better efforts when second here last Boxing Day but not as good since; back on a very handy mark and can go well. |
15/8 |
|
3rd 2 |
19th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 28y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Five-time course winner (2m3f/2m5f) who was second here on Boxing Day and has had excuses on both starts since, namely the 3m2f trip here then a different course (Market Rasen); could play a leading role back here. |
9/2 |

17th Feb 2026 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
All five wins over fences have been at Sedgefield; didn't appear to get home there over 3m2f (good to soft) when seventh of nine finishers last month but best to wait until he returns to his favourite venue at a more suitable trip. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Had a wind operation since pulling up on chase debut last time (first-time cheekpieces now dispensed with); bumper/hurdle winner who had been in good form in handicaps prior to that. |
7/1 |

17th Feb 2026 2m 3f 34y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Lightly raced sort who won over hurdles at Huntingdon last February; has produced two solid efforts in defeat over hurdles this term and sports first-time cheekpieces on chasing debut; looks sure to be well-schooled and is open to improvement. |
13/8 |
|
3rd 6 |
25th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won a bumper and was going beyond 2m for the first time when making a successful handicap debut at Huntingdon (2m3f, good to soft); effectively 11lb higher as they claimed 6lb last time, but in the right hands to keep progressing. |
