12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Aided by cheekpieces this year, winning three in a row here (2m-2m4f, heavy) in January/February; also suited by faster ground but managed only fifth behind Jack's Jury off this career-high mark over C&D (soft) last month. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Thriving 5yo who has won three times on heavy ground here (2m-2m4f) this year; drew nicely clear of the others with another in-form horse when prevailing by a neck over C&D last time and remains unexposed over this trip; must be considered. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Heavy-ground 2m wins here the last twice, and although the latter represented no further improvement on RPRs he was value for further than 2l having walked through the last; untried over this far and 7lb rise demands a career-best, but clearly in the heart to go close once more. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Royally suited by a galloping 2m4f and slow ground; last month's win here took his C&D record to 161 and didn't feature the late mistake of several previous outings; 6lb rise leaves him with little in hand. |

17th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 137y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Won on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) in January and followed up at Wincanton (2m5f, heavy), both under Rian Corcoran; when third at Ffos Las (2m4f, heavy) it maybe came too soon, just six days after the Wincanton win; 7lb higher mark has now kicked in but he may still have more to offer. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Immediate improvement for the switch to handicaps and deployment of Rian Corcoran, the pair obliging at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) and Wincanton (2m5f, heavy) with something in hand each time; unpenalised for the latter, and obvious case assuming the six-day turnround isn't too quick. |

14th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 5f 82y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Well-held fourth in his first three runs over hurdles but he found improvement when justifying support on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) three weeks ago; up 5lb but that was a convincing win under Rian Corcoran and he's open to more progress at this new trip; key player. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
C&D win in late 2024 (heavy) initiated a double; today's the first time since that he's returned below the mark of the second leg; have to hope confidence hasn't been sapped entirely by this term's heavy defeats. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Three-time hurdle winner last season, most recently off mark 1lb lower than today's in this race (heavy); chasing has not gone to plan this term (three attempts) but he might fare better now back over hurdles. |

3rd Mar 2024 Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
47,000euros 3yo; fourth foal; half-brother to bumper/hurdle winner Fiadh and a US hurdle winner; dam fair 2m hurdle winner; has pretty good standard to reach on debut but stable does very well in bumpers. |

20th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Gently progressive in class 5 handicaps of late, again travelling well in posting a near-2l second at Taunton latest (2m3f, heavy); respected accordingly, but more needed up in class against in-form rivals. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 |
3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 1y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Unexposed 7yo who travelled strongly for a long way when third of 11 on handicap debut at Wincanton (2m4f, heavy) on Thursday; big player if in similar form here. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Runner-up in soft-ground bumper at Exeter bumper last December but down the field in three hurdle races, including when tailed off at Exeter (2m, heavy) last month; still unexposed but she needs a transformation upped in trip on handicap debut. |
12/1 |
