8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Three-time hurdle winner this season and added to his tally on last month's chasing debut at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft), asserting on run-in to score by 5l; only 3lb higher for this return to hurdling and won't mind if the ground ends up good; sports first-time blinkers; must be considered. |

16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3-9 over hurdles, the wins at 2m5f-3m1f (one here), and recent effort off this mark under Chad Bament when second around here was solid; probably on a stiff enough mark, but appeals as the type to improve for fences and a bold showing can be expected on chase debut. |
9/4 |

2nd 5 |
9th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 217y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Made all for clearcut C&D (soft) success four weeks ago and is now 3-8 over hurdles; also suited by good/good to soft ground and might still be on the upgrade; commands respect. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 5f 55y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Veteran who has turned things around over fences recently, with a win at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) followed by a second on similar ground at Plumpton (3m1f); now returns to hurdling but she's lightly raced in this sphere and looks interesting off the same mark as last time. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Out of sorts initially this season but she wasn't without her supporters when back to form and winning at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to soft) two weeks ago, and the 5lb rise looks manageable in her follow-up bid; leading contender if in the same frame of mind. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 |
1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 129y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Triple point winner but she's 0-12 under rules and hasn't been running well this winter; hard to recommend unless transformed by the cheekpieces. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 166y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Four-time winner over fences including here (about 2m 3f, good) in 2024; last ran over hurdles when second at Wincanton (about 3m, good to soft) and he returns to this sphere after a couple of errors at Plumpton last month; respected. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 2 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Four-time chase winner (2m3f/3m1f) in 2023 and 2024, two of them here, and shaped promisingly on hurdles return in December after a long absence; left behind a below-par run over fences later that month with a short-head defeat at Wincanton (3m1f, good to soft) last month; back up 2lb but needs respecting with course form. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 5 |
25th Feb 2026 Soft 3m 1f 30y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Won three out of four chases in October-December 2024 (including C&D, good to soft; handles softer) and was an encouraging second over hurdles here (about 3m) on his comeback from a year's absence; return to fences didn't go well at Taunton later that month but could bounce back following two months off. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 119y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Landed his sole win off this mark at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) last June but has been tailed off on his last two starts; would be considered if operating at his best but needs to sharpen up. |
7/1 |
|
6th 3 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Just the one win in 22 starts but three decent runs when placed prior to a below par effort when tailed off at Plumpton (3m1f, good to soft) last month; his poor win record does not inspire. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Back in form since pulling up twice earlier in the season, reaching the frame on his last three starts, most recently at Ffos Las (3m, heavy) in January when third of seven, beaten just under 6l; place claims off an unchanged mark. |

13th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Beat 1-9 favourite when winning two-runner edition of this race a year ago (good ground) and was in front before last-fence unseat over C&D (good to soft) in October; returned from break with low-key run last month but remains lightly raced for her age, and her course form is a selling point. |
7/1 |

5th 7 |
16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Won a match at Fakenham in April last year and would possibly have doubled her score back at that venue but for unseating at the last in October, returns from another break and hard to be confident she'd repeat the effort. |
11/2 |

29th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Won a match over C&D in April (in this headgear) but that effort stands out among otherwise modest form and she was pulled up when last seen later that month; returns from a six-month break with a bit to prove. |

16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
11-race maiden with six of those coming over fences; mark continues to slide and he has the odd bit of form that suggests he could be competitive, particularly if the tongue-tie/cheekpieces prove a positive addition. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 1 |
31st Jan 2025 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Runner-up three times as a juvenile hurdler in France but, following a long absence, has not shown a great deal on his four British starts; the last three of those were over fences. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Two more chase wins in 2025, the latest at Windsor (3m, good to soft; suited by good) in November; often battled with unsuitable ground over the winter but 4lb lower than at Windsor so has a weights chance. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 7 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Has five wins over fences including one over C&D; below form on his last two starts but may show improvement on this better ground. |
12/1 |

16th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
2lb below his Windsor success in November but he's not matched that level since, latest when well held at Taunton (2m7f, heavy) last month; needs the return to better ground to spark a revival. |
25/1 |
