15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Maiden prior to his marked improvement over fences (on good ground) this May-September, including three wins and the first was at this track; he didn't fare so well at Uttoxeter 11 days ago but that was still up with his best form; not dismissed. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Maiden prior to posting form figures of 1211 (on good ground) this term, the last two wins at Worcester (2m4f/2m); climbing the weights but possibly has further improvement in him. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Justified good support when off the mark over fences at Fontwell (2m2f, good) in May and, after a solid second next time, doubled his tally over 2m4f here last time despite meeting interference; up 6lb and comes back in trip but he's open to further progress and this looks a good opportunity. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Pulled up over fences in May following a break but has reached the frame in all three starts since fitted with a visor this summer, latest back over hurdles at Worcester (2m4f, good) when third to a subsequent winner; shaped as though well worth a try over this longer trip and is a leading contender. |

3rd 4 |
10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Not seen over hurdles since 2024 but was clear second to a progressive rival over fences here (2m4f, good) in July and switches back to this code on the same mark; no surprise if he features. |
11/4 |

2nd 5 |
22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
His sole success over fences came at Market Rasen (2m1f, soft) last July off 2lb higher; didn't offer a great deal once headed when third at Southwell (2m5f, good) last month in a first-time visor (retained) but has dropped to a career-low mark with Sean Bowen on board so all is not lost. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Caused 28-1 surprise over C&D (good) on chase debut in June and bounced back from lesser effort when third over 2m4f here (good) last month; remains lightly raced and this drop back in trip looks the right move; respected. |
7/1 |

3rd 3 |
22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Nothing special over hurdles but made an immediate impact over fences, scoring at this track (2m, good; 28-1) last month; unable to replicate that form when beaten 47l over the same C&D three weeks ago and needs to bounce back on this step back up in trip. |
6/1 |

5th 9 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Cut little ice in a handful of runs over hurdles but this Irish point runner-up was much improved on his chasing debut when a 28-1 winner of nine-runner handicap over C&D two weeks ago; up 5lb but open to progress, so he's a player. |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 205y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Runner-up off this mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) in June and she's of interest on that form but she's been well beaten on both starts since and a major turnaround is needed in a change of headgear. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-9 under rules; not a bad effort when runner-up on her chasing debut at Southwell (2m5f, good) last month but beaten 23l over C&D since; needs to show more. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Very modest hurdle form but she went chasing off a career-low mark at Southwell (2m4f, good) in June and took a healthy step forward, keeping on well against one in a good run of form; back up 2lb; can threaten. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 3 |
11st 3lb |
Failed to complete three consecutive races this summer but dominated from the front at Fontwell (2m3f, good) 16 days ago and is now 3-9 over fences; 8lb higher here but could still be on the upgrade. |
4/1 |

1st 5 |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 104y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Completed a double with an easy win over C&D (good) in June but she's failed to complete in last three runs and was pulled up here last time (sustained an overreach to left fore); comes with risks attached but she still looks on a workable mark and has claims if she can get back on track. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Easily won two small-field chases this spring, the latter from the front here (2m3f, good), and was in front before last-fence mishap at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm) on next outing; fell last time but could plausibly still have more improvement to come if she gets round safely. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Won this last year and is fully 13lb lower this time around; he's one to watch in the betting in first-time cheekpieces but has been struggling this season and a major turnaround is necessary. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 135y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won three times (all 2m4f, good) in early part of last season and returned from break with pretty good fourth here (2m3f, good) in April but has looked out of sorts on recent outings and needs to turn a corner. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Two of his four wins over fences have been over C&D but he has been well below that level recently and is hard to fancy. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Tailed off on chasing debut in the autumn and also ran poorly when reappearing last month; might be happier now back over hurdles and has slipped to a good mark but others have much less to prove; swaps cheekpieces for refitted visor. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Twice placed in 2m4f hurdle races here last summer (good) but ended last year's campaign on a low, achieving little on October's chasing debut; can't be certain he will hit the ground running in 2026. |
