4th Oct 2026 Good 3m 2f 39y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
6yo who made it three wins for the season when scoring at Perth (3m, good) last month; respectable third there (3m, good) since; he was 6l behind Upfordebate last time but is 7lb better off today and this course winner could be thereabouts. |

Returned to positive tactics here 17 days ago and stuck on well to beat a reliable yardstick by 5l; couldn't grumble about the 4lb rise. |

7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Long on the tooth now but was in good form when last seen in the spring, winning at Hexham (3m, good to soft) before chasing home Sir Carnegie over same C&D (good); dangerous if allowed to dominate. |
11/4 |

2nd 1 |
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. |

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. |

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 |

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. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Recorded his seventh Market Rasen success when last seen in July (3m, good), albeit few gave their running and the form has taken further knocks; respected, though a 7lb re-raise does demand more. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 |
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 |
10st 13lb |
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 |

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. |

20th Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Hasn't won for over two years but has produced some respectable efforts alongside a few modest ones; C&D winner but often looks reluctant these days, so difficult to recommend with any confidence. |
14/1 |
|
5th 4 |
2nd Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Ran a big race from the front when close fourth at Cartmel (3m1f, good) in July and is also suited by this C&D, but he has often looked unenthusiastic over the last couple of years and it's hard to predict whether he'll be in the right mood today. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
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 |
