5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple winner but his first success beyond about 2m when making all for a 9l victory over C&D 23 days ago; back up 7lb but had dropped to a good mark. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
All eight jump wins have been at around 2m; lost his chance by jumping right when stepped up to 2m4f at Aintree last time (finished a well-beaten sixth); will be better going right-handed; 21lb lower than for his last win (August 2024) and stable in form, but a bit to prove. |

Continues to hurtle down the weights but latest 13l defeat at Perth was another unconvincing run. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Back in prime form when keeping on strongly for clearcut success in first-time blinkers at Worcester (2m7f, good) 12 days ago, and now 4-11 over fences; on the downside, he's never run here before and will have something to prove if the ground is slower than good to soft. |
5/1 |

1st 4 |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Back to form with 9l second to well-handicapped winner at Market Rasen (extended 2m5f, good) in June and it was the competitive Summer Plate there in which he was soundly beaten last time (hampered four out and wasn't disgraced); could be in the mix back down in grade, provided the step back up in trip isn't an issue; wears first-time blinkers. |
5/1 |

9th 13 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
Three wins at around 2m4f last season, all in small fields on good ground; after some blips he got himself back on track when second to a well-handicapped horse over C&D a month ago on first visit here; likely to run well with Shane Fenelon now taking off 5lb; one of three runners for a yard that's captured this eight times. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
All four chase wins came around 2m when trained by Dan Skelton; ran well on yard debut in December but little to show for his eight subsequent runs; has dropped to a dangerous mark, however. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Three places and 59l ahead of Betty's Tiara over C&D last week (good), though still well held himself and simply isn't coming very close at present to recording a first win beyond 2m1f; 5lb badly in compared to future mark. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Not particularly consistent but won at Huntingdon early last month (2m4f, good) and would have a chance on that form; however, pulled up when favourite at Fakenham last time having reportedly made a respiratory noise. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 5f 44y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Well below best last season but exploited some help from the handicapper when winning in pretty good style at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) this month; even after a 5lb rise, he's still 5lb lower than when winning this race in 2025; good chance. |

7th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 189y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Well handicapped if judged on his two good-ground wins in cheekpieces last spring (2m7f/2m5f) but has been well below best (in various headgear) in recent months; ran well for a long way before weakening quickly at Market Rasen (3m, good) last time and might benefit from this drop back in trip but others have much less to prove. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has won two small-field chases over 3m1f on good ground at Hereford since returning from a winter break and being tried in cheekpieces; up 7lb; down in trip but a contender. |

5th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 44y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Beat the only other finisher by 35l over C&D (good) last month on third chase attempt and second start in cheekpieces; open to further progress in this sphere and warrants respect up just 2lb. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won twice in 2025, at Musselburgh in January (2m4f, soft) and at Worcester in May (2m4f, good); hasn't done as well since and was pulled up at Stratford last time; could bounce back |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 125y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Absent since below-par run in December but returned from break with creditable second at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft; stays much further) in November and won when fresh last spring; has travelled from Northumberland for this race and Sean Bowen is booked; interesting. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 20y Class 4 |

Did well for new yard last season with two wins at Musselburgh (good to soft/soft) and was back on the scoresheet at Worcester in May; absolute shocker at Warwick (also 2m4f, good) 29 days again, though, beaten 62l with no obvious excuses. |

Califet mare; half-sister to dual bumper winner You Oughta Know; dam unplaced in two bumpers (favourite each time), sister to bumper/2m4f hurdle winner Pont Aval, half-sister to smart 2m1f-2m6f hurdle/chase winner Pont Alexandre; interesting newcomer. |
