5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
He was weakening when falling in a small field at Bangor (2m4f, soft) and then tailed off at Newbury; too well handicapped to ignore but wouldn't be the percentage call. |

He was weakening when falling in a small field at Bangor (2m4f, soft) but there were signs of returning to form and he's very well handicapped now. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
Back in top form this season; justified favouritism at Stratford (3m3f, good to firm) last time, taking chase record to 5-19; however, the memory of his dismal effort in this contest two years ago (when bidding for a four-timer) tempers enthusiasm. |
10/1 |
|
1st 2 |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 3m 3f 119y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Four-times winning chaser over around 3m; returned to his best when beaten a neck at Ffos Las (3m, good) 25 days ago with 15l back to the third; nudged up 4lb but holds claims if he gets home over this marathon trip. |

2nd 4 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
In career-best form last summer over 3m on good ground; soundly beaten in his last three races, disappointingly so at Warwick last time when back on his favoured surface (good); bit to prove now. |

3rd 3 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Record of 6-17 over fences after doing it comfortably at Chepstow (2m7f, good to soft) where Buckna was back in third; a likeable type who looks sure to give his running and be heavily involved; 5lb rise is fair. |
7/2 |
|
1st 6 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Record of 5-16 over fences and he defied today's mark with a 12l win in this race (good) last year; has not seen much action since but he returned after four months off with a creditable fourth at Newbury (2m6f, good to soft) last month; should benefit from that run and he's an interesting contender back at this track. |
11/4 |
|
4th 3 |
20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 6f 93y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
He wasn't in the best form coming into this race last year (good to soft), yet he battled hard for a narrow win and then followed up by 12l at Chepstow (good); only 2lb higher than for the latter win and could very easily stage a revival. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Has won ten of his 30 chases, four of them last year; hasn't been in quite such good form this term, last time finishing 8l fourth of six at Cartmel (3m1f, good), but he's on a good mark now. |
11/2 |

4th 6 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Admirable strike-rate of 10-29 over fences; won this 12 months ago off 1lb higher and had only five starts in the meantime, the latest respectable in a higher grade behind stablemate Stratagem; chance. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
25th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 80y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
10-28 over fences, including three 3m1f course wins; below form at Ffos Las this month, after a break, but is back on a good mark and this marathon trip will suit; must be considered. |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Ex-Irish veteran who was safely held on first two starts for new stable this spring (both 3m, good); needs good boost from new cheekpieces here. |
10/1 |
|
5th 9 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Four-time winner over fences but a 12yo now and his stable debut was a quiet one. |
25/1 |
|
5th 5 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
12yo who has won four times over fences but there were more bad runs than good ones in Ireland last year; on workable mark in suitable conditions but he was tailed off when last seen in October and needs a major revival for new yard. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |

Made it 2-4 over fences when he pulled clear with the second at Southwell (3m2f, good); no reason why he shouldn't be very competitive off 4lb higher. |

1st 3 |
24th Mar 2026 Good 3m 1f 185y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Defied an even longer break at Hereford in November (3m1f, good) off only 1lb lower and his following run was just as good; could easily leave his latest below-par run behind. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dual chase winner who got himself back on track in the new cheekpieces when third to The Boola Boss at Chepstow; no good thing to reverse those placings despite a 5lb pull on the winner but definite each-way chance. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Acts on good and soft ground; won two chase handicaps at Hereford (3m1f) late in 2025 but he's struggled in his last two starts; still has potential in this sphere but he needs to get back on track with cheekpieces added. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 177y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Inconsistent last season but wasn't beaten too far on his stable debut here before sent over 4m at Hexham; likes the mud so could do with some rain. |
20/1 |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 7f 199y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Very inconsistent this season but he ran okay when fifth on his stable debut at Ffos Las (3m, soft) last Monday, in the process shaping as though this marathon trip would be worth exploring; not ruled out. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 |
16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 7f 177y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Seemingly back in good form when 33-1 second over C&D (heavy; first-time cheekpieces) in January but failed to complete his next two races for Debra Hamer (latest was over hurdles); far too inconsistent to rely upon; headgear left off today on debut for new yard. |

13th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Multiple hurdle/chase winner but he's lost his way since a 2m4f success at Ffos Las (good to soft) last June and has offered little in three runs this season; well treated on his best form but with plenty to prove. |
25/1 |

23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Multiple hurdle/chase winner; unseated rider in early stages of a chase last month, after a layoff, and was tailed-off 66-1 shot when back over hurdles at Worcester (2m7f, good) 17 days ago; others have much less to prove. |
33/1 |
|
7th 6 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
7-39, with three wins over hurdles, but he's hard to predict and was badly out of sorts in the autumn; unseated early on last month's return and reverts to hurdles off his last winning mark, but it's difficult to know what to expect. |
