9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 200y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Finished 18l behind Lulamba in the Arkle but may fare better in this rematch, with the return to further a likely plus; readily bagged Grade 2 honours at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) the time before, enhancing his good strike-rate when racing beyond 2m. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
Bled from nose when well held behind Steel Ally at Ascot just before Christmas but otherwise he's made a fine start to his chasing career, winning a handicap at Sandown (1m7f, soft) and Grade 2 novice at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) on last two starts; needs a chunk of improvement to trouble the principals but he's straightforward, tactically versatile and a sound jumper. |

Bled from the nose at Ascot just before Christmas but otherwise he's made a fine start to his chasing career, winning handicap at Sandown (1m7f, soft) three weeks ago in clearcut style; just as effective at 2m4f and sets the standard for the others to aim at. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Opened chasing account at second attempt, with Listed success at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) in February, and was creditable second in Grade 2 Pendil at Kempton (2m4f, good to soft) later that month; still has potential over fences; respected on handicap return. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Added to point, bumper and hurdles wins when battling on gamely in mares' Listed chase at Huntingdon (2m4f, soft) 16 days ago; that was a career best and she may not have reached her ceiling just yet; faces a sterner assignment against male rivals but impossible to discount. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 3f 189y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Point/bumper/hurdles winner who is looking for the full set; ran well in novice handicap at Kempton (2m4f) on Boxing Day when making chase/seasonal debut; upped in class but is an interesting contender, being open to further improvement. |

21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Just one win from six attempts over hurdles but already better over fences; ready winner of handicap at Newbury (2m, good) in December and might have followed up over this C&D but for falling two out when a narrow leader (bled from the nose); needs further improvement but he's going the right way. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Didn't jump well enough when well beaten in Kempton Grade 2 novice in February last time but had doubled his chasing tally with ready success at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks earlier, and will be dangerous if back in similar form. |
7/2 |

4th 1 |
21st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
5-9 over jumps; posted a personal best when winning novice handicap at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) three weeks ago, seeing off several challengers from four out; goes well with positive tactics; should be involved again. |
11/4 |

1st 2 |
1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Form dipped last time (unable to lead) but otherwise a largely progressive sort; penultimate effort has been boosted by the winner since; may well rebound, especially if he returns to dominating (all wins from the front); shortlisted. |
