24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Dual 2m5f course winner in early part of last season; returned from five-month break with low-key run here 18 days ago but is versatile regarding ground and his current mark is workable; can feature if that recent outing brought him on. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
All of his three victories have been at Fontwell including two chase wins over an extended 2m5f (good to soft); beaten 9l when runner-up here in December but that was behind an improver and he's still lightly raced in this sphere; respected back in trip on his return. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Course hurdle winner last summer (2m1f, good), having made most of the running; held up in rear and never looked dangerous when fourth of six on last month's chasing debut at Stratford (2m3f, good) but that was his first run since the autumn and a return to more positive tactics might show him in a better light here. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Useful chase strike-rate, winning three of six completions (at up to about 2m3f; good to soft and good) since October; well below best over C&D latest but overall form suggests he could soon put that behind him. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
3-7 over fences and remains in form following his second at Fontwell (2m3f, good) 13 days ago; may not have finished progressing yet and entitled to be on the shortlist. |

2nd 1 |
24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
3-6 over fences; returned from break with two good-ground wins last month, the latter gained in fairly good style over C&D; unseated rider mid-race here recently but has strong claims if all goes to plan this time. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Made all to open account over C&D (good) in first-time blinkers ten days ago, his 11th start over fences; drew nicely clear of the others with the runner-up that day and was only raised 3lb; could be hard to catch. |
9/4 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Can make mistakes but mainly consistent over fences for this yard; pulled up at Warwick after an error last time but 2m and ground that was likely faster than good were probably not ideal; that brought his record to 0-18 but he's not ruled out in first-time blinkers back up in trip. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 54y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Held up and was never that threatening when beaten just over 7l into fourth at Ffos Las (2m3f, good to soft); that's two pleasing enough runs since the visor went on and this 17-race maiden has each-way claims. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Gave very good account when close second over C&D (good to soft) last month and subsequent fifth of 12 over C&D (good) was perfectly respectable but his overall strike-rate is just 1-35 and others appeal more. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Just 1-34 under rules but the win came here (in 2023) and he went very close to a second course success 16 days ago, going down by only a head over this trip on good to soft; another who could be involved in the finish. |
5/1 |

2nd 7 |
8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Just 1-33 under rules but the win came here (in 2023) and he gave a good account when second from out of the weights at Hereford (2m5f, good) last month, after a break; could have a say. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Dual C&D winner, latterly on good ground last April; her infrequent going days are difficult to foretell, though, and she was soundly beaten here (2m2f) ten days ago; 1lb out of the weights. |
25/1 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Course regular who has won twice (about 2m3f, good) and been placed on another four occasions from 15 visits; last won just over a year ago but looked to have something to offer when unseating four out in April and it was too far out to tell how she'd have fared when falling, again here, last time; 2lb wrong but she's not dismissed. |
20/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Pulled up on her final two outings in 2025 but looked in much better form back from a break here 16 days ago, moving well close to the pace when unseating four out; has won the last two runnings of this race off similar marks and could be set for another bold bid. |
