15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Smart in bumpers and getting there over hurdles after digging deep for a successful handicap debut under Jack Stenhouse at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft); 7lb rise seems harsh enough but he'll probably improve again for going 3m. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Unraced on soft/heavy; handicap debutant who looks particularly well treated on his strong bumper form; has gradually found his feet since switched to hurdles and latest effort, namely solid second over 2m3f at Taunton, has received a couple of boosts; interesting contender. |

17th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 1y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Irish bumper winner on Boxing Day 2024; ran well in hot bumpers at Aintree and Punchestown festivals for new stable last spring but disappointed (albeit in a Grade 2) on hurdle debut in October and was just a respectable fourth at Exeter (2m, good to soft) last month; still has potential but needs to take a good step forward here. |

10st 9lb |
Sole defeat in her last four races came at the hands of a progressive horse at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft); shrugged aside that minor blip with a workmanlike win at Chepstow (2m3f, soft); 3lb rise isn't the end of the world. |

15th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 100y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
The hat-trick bid came up shy at Newbury (2m4f, good to soft; after two months off) but only went up 2lb despite finishing well clear of the third, and behind a progressive winner; considered. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Bids for a hat-trick, having made all in mares' contests over 2m4f at Uttoxeter (soft) and Aintree (good to soft) in December, taking record to 3-8; upped in grade and goes back against males but is a progressive contender. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Showed a good strike-rate (3-6) and proved fairly useful as a juvenile hurdler last term but has been absent since midfield finish in the Fred Winter; market may offer further guidance. |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Inferior Flat form to a few of these but he's making a name for himself over hurdles and has a similar profile to Quantock Hills (with whom he's closely matched on bare form), having looked on an upward curve until fading away in a Grade 2 here in January; that was his first time on soft ground (won on good and good to soft) so there's reason to believe he'll run better this time; the tongue-tie worn throughout over hurdles is joined by cheekpieces that he wore once on the Flat (finished sixth). |
22/1 |

25th Jan 2025 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Looked ordinary in two Flat runs but has been a revelation over hurdles, winning three of his four races, the first two for Joseph O'Brien; found plenty to force a dead-heat with Quantock Hills over C&D (good to soft; unraced on softer) last month; this is a stiffer task but he's hard to discount. |

12st 2lb |
He was a hard ride over C&D last month (good) but on top when it mattered and his record here now reads 2111; raised 4lb but a greater concern is whether he'll be up for it. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Needs to rebound, having been out of form since the turn of the year; however, has a record of 211 at Plumpton, most recently winning off just 1lb lower in November; return to this venue may have positive effect; goes without headgear for first time in a while. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Front-runner whose record of 4-14 over hurdles includes two wins this term; ran right up to his best when second at Ascot (2m5f, soft) in December but he's lost his way with heavy defeats in last two run; now drops back into a Class 4 event but he needs to get back on track. |

9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 198y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Made a winning debut here (2m3f, good to soft) in January 2025 but has not gone on from that so far; pulled up on her last two starts, she steps up in trip with a tongue-tie and cheekpieces both on for the first time; still lightly raced but needs to get back on track. |

Let down by her jumping in the Lanzarote last time, failing to build on reappearance effort; however, remains lightly raced and may yet confirm the promise of her Taunton win (rules debut) last term; not written off. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Bounced back with a win at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in December but he was tailed off in next two starts and he didn't get very far at Newbury (fell at third) last time; has plenty to prove again and he's still 3lb higher than for his last win. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Has gained both wins in Class 4, including for his standout performance this term; pair of duck eggs since, albeit the 2m7f trip perhaps contributed to latest defeat; others have stronger claims. |

14th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 7f 123y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Showed career-best form when winning readily by 4l at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft; refitted cheekpieces) in December; subsequent lesser effort in major Kempton handicap is not viewed harshly but 2m7f on soft ground will take his stamina into unknown territory. |

Lightly raced and inconsistent since completing a hat-trick in 2023; last off five finishers at Hereford most recently, failing to back up reappearance effort; others preferred. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Four-time hurdles winner for James Moffatt but disappointing during light campaign for that yard last season; encouraging stable debut when clear second of four at Leicester (1m7f, soft) in December; well handicapped on older form, while he's won over this sort of trip and on heavy; considered. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Largely consistent over hurdles; has taken his form to a new level since upped to about 2m4f, winning at Wincanton (soft) then going close at Hereford (heavy); may have more to offer at this distance; looks a solid one for the shortlist. |

11th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Dual heavy-ground winner on the Flat in France; mostly encouraging in first six starts for this yard and made the breakthrough over hurdles when up in trip to land 12-runner Wincanton handicap (2m4f, soft) last month; 7lb rise asks a question but he looked good that day and these conditions will suit; big player. |
3/1 |

1st 12 |
15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 179y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Two Flat wins in France; 0-6 over hurdles; third to the useful French Emperor in a good-ground handicap at Worcester in October but was beaten further by the same horse on soft at Cheltenham (handles those conditions); consistent prior to that and he's twice run well under the returning Harry Cobden. |
