9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won over hurdles here in October 2024 and returned from seven-month break with wide-margin C&D (good) success on chasing debut last May; absent for another 13 months since and now 13lb higher but remains unexposed over fences and can evidently go well when fresh. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
In good form for Alison Thorpe in early part of last season, notably when winning at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good); yet fully to convince stamina-wise at around 3m and has fitness to prove on this stable debut (same owners) but Sean Bowen (who has won on him before) is booked; swaps visor for first-time blinkers. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 65y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Incredibly consistent on his last four starts, three seconds and a win (all on good between 2m3f and 2m5f) returning an RPR of 100 each time; had course form over hurdles for previous connections and he's a player once again from an unchanged mark. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
1-15 over fences; runner-up twice in cheekpieces at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) at start of this year but didn't fire in first-time blinkers (retained) at Fontwell last month; others are more persuasive. |
14/1 |

6th 1 |
6th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-5 over hurdles and 1-14 as a chaser; clearly difficult to win with but arrives here in a good run of form and always a chance that new headgear might give him a lift; an assured stayer. |
6/1 |

4th 6 |
9th Apr 2026 Good 3m 4f 85y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
His sole success came when landing this race last year (good to firm) in first-time cheekpieces off 3lb lower mark; has ran with credit since when placed and his second at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in February will have set him up nicely for a repeat bid. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Four-time chase winner; no longer the force of old but returned from break with three placed runs last month, losing out only by a short head at Fontwell (3m2f, good) last time; can make his presence felt again. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
24th May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Four-time chase winner (once over C&D); no longer the force of old but returned from break with two pretty good thirds this month, the latter at Bangor (3m, good); contender if in similar form again. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 |
16th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
First form since summer 2024 when an 80-1 third at Fontwell this month (3m2f, good); trip and ground as much to suit again this time, but no certainty to back up that effort. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who tends to race too freely but displayed considerable improvement when upped to 3m and switched to fences at Bangor (good) in April, winning by 5l; beaten about 21l when second over C&D last month but gave the all-the-way winner far too much rope that day, and his margin of defeat was magnified by late jumping errors; remains of strong interest. |
3/1 |

2nd 3 |
11th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Poor five-race maiden over hurdles but this winning pointer was a different proposition when winning by 5l on chase debut at Bangor (3m, good; second run in this headgear combination); could cope with the 10lb rise. |
7/4 |

1st 14 |
18th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 30y Class 5 |

Poor five-race maiden over hurdles; has won a point but unconvincing claims on chase debut. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Returned to racing under rules with win in four-runner chase at Fakenham (3m, good) in April, in which his three rivals toiled and were pulled up; it's hard to gauge what that form is worth and his overall profile is not compelling but he clocked a good time (despite being eased right down). |

1st 5 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 38y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Runner-up over hurdles here (2m4f, good; first-time blinkers) on latest rules start last June and competes off a 10lb lower mark today, but his chasing strike-rate is 0-11 and this year's point form is uninspiring. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 |
1st Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Hasn't been pulling up any trees in his recent chases following a lengthy absence but he is 2-6 over hurdles and well handicapped should the new blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) have some impact. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Ran well for a long way before fading into fourth at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month but is effectively 7lb higher from out of the weights here and it's over three years since his only chase win; tries a new trip. |
33/1 |

4th 5 |
19th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 189y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Returned from layoff with two modest efforts towards end of last season (2m/2m1f) and remains without a win since 2023; yet to convince stamina-wise over this sort of trip; difficult to enthuse over. |
14/1 |
|
4th 5 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 219y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Four-time Flat winner and 1-10 over fences; peak efforts were a long time ago now and he was tailed off when third at Huntingdon after 297 days off; 4lb out of the weights. |
11/1 |
