22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
In fine form after blinkers were added in early summer, winning at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) and Hexham (3m, good), before disappointing at Market Rasen last month when reportedly unsuited by the track; retains chase potential and could prove up to this mark if bouncing back. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
6yo who made it 4-10 over fences when completing a double with his late thrust at Hexham (3m, good) last month; up 3lb but he's been as good as ever in his last two starts and he's strong stayer as this trip; key player. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Stayed on to win this off topweight back in 2023, and gamely back in the winners' enclosure over C&D (from 5lb lower) latest; his jumping was immaculate that day, with his trainer stating that he had drawn benefit from being able to dominate; this rates as a tougher test. |

1st 7 |
9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

Veteran; has won on soft ground, but seems best on good ground; fair second over C&D in October (good) but has been beaten more than 30l on his two subsequent starts. |
12/1 |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 110y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Bagged a silver medal on penultimate start but has lacked consistency otherwise this term; the 12yo faces a stiffer task in this competitive field on return from a break. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won back-to-back 3m points at Overton and Pusk, prior to finishing a creditable third in a hunter chase at Perth (3m; beaten 4l, 12-1) 24 days ago; with the suspension of hunter chases, he now switches back to a handicap for Susan Corbett. |
10/1 |

3rd 3 |
13th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won a Huntingdon maiden hurdle for Olly Murphy back in May 2022, but hasn't raced under rules since the summer of 2024; made all, turning over the odds-on favourite, in a three-runner Ladies Open at Pusk (3m, good) 18 days ago; is 2-3 under Amy Milburn. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 4 |

Off the mark at 20th attempt over fences when winning here in May (3m, good); decent fourth next time (3m, good); place chance. |
12/1 |
|
4th 9 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Took advantage of a final-fence error from The Clonmel Kid to get off the mark over fences at the 20th attempt over C&D (good; 10-1) 18 days ago; effectively 6lb higher from out of the weights today and her task is tougher; others preferred. |

19th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-19 over fences and has struggled in her last two starts, both over C&D; being 9lb wrong in the handicap doesn't help. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Six of his nine wins have come at Market Rasen including over C&D; only 1lb higher than for his win at Wetherby in March but he's been vulnerable in three runs since and needs to rediscover his spark. |
10/1 |

5th 3 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Admirable Market Rasen specialist (six wins there); won over 3m at Wetherby (good; from 2lb lower) in March, but hasn't been at his best since; uncharacteristically laboured (never travelling) when remote third latest; bit to prove. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Stamina to spare at tonight's trip, and he's representing last year's race-winning trainer and rider combination; never especially consistent, however, and last month's Hexham disappointment as favourite took his chasing strike-rate to 2-16; unclear what to expect. |
5/1 |
|
6th 4 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
1lb above last winning mark (3m, Southwell); knocking on the door at Taunton (3m4f; third) on penultimate start, and might have had a role to play in the Norfolk National at Fakenham (3m5f) latest but for falling three out. |
9/2 |

4th May 2026 Good 3m 5f 24y Class 3 |
10st 7lb |
Back in good nick for his two runs last month, latterly when close third to Wicked Thoughts at Taunton (3m4f, good); still unexposed over marathon trips and still on a workable mark; could have a say. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Three-time chase winner, latest at Stratford (extended 2m3f) in June, but 0-10 over hurdles; has left Shark Hanlon since a disappointing chase run at Uttoxeter last month but not out of this if reproducing his encouraging third off this mark at Market Rasen on penultimate start. |
6/1 |
|
8th 4 |
26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
A third win over fences at Stratford last month (extended 2m3f) and it was only five days later when he was third off his lower hurdle mark; had 21 days off since but is 3lb higher than at Stratford in a race that should take more winning. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
A third win over fences at Stratford on Tuesday and he's 9lb lower for this return to hurdling (0-9); has to be of interest with trip/ground ideal. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Ex-Irish maiden; not beaten that far when fifth of seven here (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and might be better suited by today's trip but others in this line-up have much more obvious claims. |
25/1 |
|
5th 5 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |

Ex-Irish ten-race maiden who is also 0-4 in points; tailed off in his two completed starts for this yard, finishing well behind Out On Her Own in one of those. |
33/1 |

8th 7 |
6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Placed in a 3m point at Loughanmore for Tom Dreaper last October; badly hampered and unseated rider on stable debut, but left toiling behind Passengerontheship (beaten 78l) over 2m4f here 18 days ago; tough to consider on that evidence. |

10st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner (including this race in 2024); good third to Halfway House over C&D in May, after a break, but pulled up after looking reluctant (not for the first time) at Hexham last month and comes with risk. |
12/1 |
|

6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won off this mark (beat No Regrets by a neck) over C&D in May 2023; struggled last year, often pulling up, but gave an indication he's back in better shape when third to the in-form Halfway House Lad at Cartmel (3m1f, good; 20-1) a fortnight ago; worthy of inspection. |
