17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
0-9 in points (completed only three times) and has same strike-rate over hurdles; gave a fairly good account when fifth of 15 at Worcester (2m, good) last July but this chasing debut comes after a 314-day absence. |
14/1 |

7th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
No win in nine points and 0-8 over hurdles but has form figures of 34232F24 in this sphere; chased home a handicap blot at Warwick (2m3f, soft) in final start last year and she shaped as though she needed the run there on her return last month; has form over C&D and she could be dangerous back in trip. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Showed promise on five starts over hurdles, making the frame on three occasions, and took a clear step forward from chase debut when finishing a close second at Ayr (2m, soft) in January; has since left Stuart Crawford for 6,500gns and now returns to hurdles on a workable mark. |

Got off the mark over hurdles at Bangor (2m4f) in September; placed twice when sent chasing after but only sixth in 2m handicap at Musselburgh when last seen in November; could bounce back after a break though. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Won three handicap hurdles within the space of four runs last year (all at 2m on goodish ground) and the last of those was off this mark; may have needed the run last time after a break and showed some aptitude for fences when an 18l third at Uttoxeter in October. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Won three around this time last year, latest over C&D (good to soft); beaten four times since, the last two over fences; switches back to hurdles and worth a look in the betting. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Won a bumper but beaten between 23l and 46l over hurdles (2m); 28-1 for last month's chase debut at Warwick (2m4f, good) where she was still in touch when falling five out; there was still a long way to go but this looks an even weaker race. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Won her bumper here; beaten between 23l and 46l over hurdles (2m) so goes chasing/handicapping with much to prove on a few counts. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Hasn't raised his modest profile in two handicaps, pulling up in both; the tongue-tie tried last time is joined by cheekpieces; risky. |

16th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Jumping issues less evident than before, but still didn't lay down any sort of marker on March's handicap debut after five months out (2m1f, good to soft), weakening quickly; hopes rest with the debuted tongue-tie. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Not at his best at Stratford 11 days ago and now 0-6 over fences but he had returned from a break with a pretty good third over C&D (good) last month and his current mark is workable. |
9/2 |

17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 213y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Course winner over hurdles; returned from a break with respectable third in Market Rasen chase (2m1f, good) last month but is 0-5 over fences now and others in this line-up probably have more potential. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Turned his attention to chasing fairly late in life but made a solid start when second of six at Wincanton in April; didn't back that up when never travelling at Hereford (also 2m, good) nine days ago and has a question to answer after that. |
16/1 |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Four-time hurdle winner, all at around 2m; made a belated switch to fences last month and shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up at Wincanton (2m, good), which also represented a return to some form; needs to back that up but he remains well treated and is one to consider. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Still winless after 20 starts but placed over hurdles and fences at up to 2m4f (all on a sound surface); did too much too soon when failing to see it out at Exeter (2m, good) last time but had been running consistently well beforehand from this sort of mark and could have a part to play back over fences. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
0-19 but placed over both hurdles and fences at up to 2m4f (all on a sound surface); has been competitive from this mark on her last three starts and should be again. |
9/4 |
