25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won three 2m7f handicaps (all on good) in early part of last season; made low-key return behind Tranquil Sea last month but that race was competitive and, with that run behind him, he may yet have more improvement to come. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 217y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Absent since an October double (2m7f Class 3) that took his hurdles record to 4-12; returns to action off a stiffer mark in deeper waters and looks by no means certain to bag the hat-trick. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 3 |
10st 9lb |
Low-mileage 7yo is thriving of late and he readily followed up his hurdling success at Huntingdon (3m1f, good to firm) in 2m7f handicap chase here (good) two weeks ago; up 8lb but still looks the one to beat back hurdling. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Hasn't had a lot of racing and he makes his chase debut off the same mark he defied fairly comfortably in a 3m1f handicap hurdle last week at Huntingdon (good to firm); major claims if he takes to his new discipline. |

25th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 83y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Best known for his heroics at Bangor but showed career-best form when winning narrowly at Warwick (3m1f, good) last month; 3lb rise demands even more from him here; usual cheekpieces left off; tongue-tie added. |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 5y Class 3 |

Goes particularly well at Bangor but was runner-up at Aintree on final run in October (3m, good); however, a 3lb rise sees him on a career-high mark and he's been off a good while. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Did well in cheekpieces last year, winning at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May and Aintree (3m, good) in October; not so good behind Super Survivor here (good to soft) in December but a return to form today looks possible for in-form yard; place hopes. |

26th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 149y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Won at Worcester (2m7f, good) in May in first-time cheekpieces (retained since); midfield at Market Rasen next time then runner-up back at Worcester (2m7f, good), albeit no match for the unexposed winner; also effective on soft/good to soft ground; might not be far away. |

11st 12lb |
Three-time hurdle winner who showed career-best form when game winner of Cheltenham chase (3m1f, good to soft) off today's mark in October; not seen since first-fence fall in December, though, and may not be ideally suited by this drop back in trip. |

24th Oct 2025 Good 3m 1f 0y Class 3 |

3-7 over hurdles; runner-up in all three chases, most recently behind dominant front-runner at Warwick (3m, good; course record) last month; can go well again here under regular partner Lily Bradstock. |

2024 EBF Final winner off 7lb higher; unseated too far out at Uttoxeter latest to say if and where he may have figured, but his poor winter up to that point tempers enthusiasm either way; overlooked. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 136y Class 5 |
12st 6lb |
Rampant in sub-3m good-ground hurdle races and chases last summer, and has the beating of Yippee Ki Yay on a line through Macklin, whom he trounced at Exeter last time (3m, good); still fairly lightly raced over this sort of trip, and drying forecast rates a big plus. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made a winning start for this yard in a novice handicap chase at Southwell (2m4f, soft) last November; finished a long way behind Sea Of Kings at Doncaster on his return to the Flat four weeks ago; others appeal more. |

Ended his time with Adrian Keatley below par last autumn but a winner over fences at Southwell for his new yard before being pulled up at Market Rasen in December; needs to bounce back after a layoff. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Added to debut bumper win, hitting the line strongly to score at the third attempt in a handicap hurdle at Kelso (2m5f, good) 31 days ago; moves up in trip (ideal on pedigree) from a 6lb higher mark, with that form franked at Southwell by the third-placed Larkfield Lusive. |

28th Jul 2024 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 8lb |
Back to the same mark off which he won on good ground over C&D just over a year ago and, next time out after a 5lb rise, he was going best in this when unseating two out; lost his way later on but there were positives to take from his fifth over C&D in May; could easily be in the shake-up. |

Had struggled after returning from a long absence but last time was a bit better and Sean Bowen now takes over; could be interesting, for all that he's not shone around here in the past. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |

C&D winner who is well treated on his old form but he had a long spell on the sidelines before struggling at big prices in both runs this winter; hard to know how much ability remains and he has plenty to prove. |

Dual winner over 2m7f at Uttoxeter in the summer of 2024 (good); was then off for 587 days and fair sixth at Wincanton on return to action last month (3m, good to soft; form not worked out); should come on for that run. |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 0f 150y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
Lightly raced 9yo who created good impression when winning readily on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) in summer 2024; absent since and not sure to be ideally suited by the forecast slower ground here but will be dangerous off today's 4lb higher mark if fully tuned up. |
