9th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 77y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Revitalised veteran who won at Worcester (2m, good; 4lb lower) and probably found good to soft too testing when fourth at Cartmel; less to prove than most in here. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Revitalised veteran who came second over C&D last month and scored at Worcester (2m, also good) 12 days ago; recent 4lb rise does look excessive but the forecast rain is probably not in his favour. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Four-time chase winner who has made the frame on all four starts since returning from a break in May, most recently when second at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last month; has his limitations and is not getting any younger but ought to give another good account. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Did well for Tom Lacey in early part of last season, winning three times over hurdles, and reappeared with fairly encouraging chase debut in May; failed to build on that when well-held fourth over C&D last month but still enters calculations in this lower grade. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |

Much improved for Tom Lacey last season when a three-time 2m hurdles winner; off six months and made a promising start in this sphere with third of five in 2m1f handicap at Stratford 32 days ago, running on late under a patient ride; one to be interested in off a 2lb lower mark. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |

Now 1lb lower than when winning at Cartmel (2m1f, good) last summer but has not been at his best this season, and was behind Getaway Jewel when fourth at Cartmel last month; needs to up his game. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Made it 4-6 for current when completing a chase hat-trick at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) two weeks ago; 8lb higher on this return to hurdling, but that was another easy win last time, and this strong traveller has been a big improver this year; key player. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 216y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Made it 3-5 since joining this stable with an easy win at Sedgefield (2m4f) four days ago, when unpenalised for a similarly comfortable C&D success seven days earlier when beating My Cullen; thriving at present and commands major respect under a penalty. |

Ex-Irish 8yo who is 2-4 for new stable this season, the latter win gained in conditional jockeys' race at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) a week ago; did that fairly comfortably by 7l and avoids a penalty here; obvious claims. |

11st 10lb |
Needs to rebound from last month's poor hurdle run but was second in two good-ground C&D chases last summer (including this race) and has slipped to a good mark; will be dangerous if back on song in first-time cheekpieces. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |

Not seen over hurdles since 65l defeat on handicap debut in April 2025 but pretty consistent over fences since; reverts to this code with trip/ground suitable; might be the answer. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 5 |

Was going okay when whacking the third last at Southwell (2m, good; beaten 15l) in June, a race he won the previous year off 11lb lower; he does look a shade high in the weights but can run well. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Went very close off today's mark on chasing debut at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm; form has worked out well) in May, after a layoff; major player if judged on that effort but finished rather weakly on both subsequent outings and is now 0-21 under all codes. |

12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-11 under rules but made an encouraging start over fences when beaten a short-head here (2m1f, good to firm) in May; fourth of five finishers at Worcester (2m, good) last month but may be worth another chance back here. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |

0-9 in points and 0-9 over hurdles but returned from 314-day break with very close second to progressive subsequent winner on last month's chasing debut at Stratford (2m1f, good to firm); obvious contender if in similar form here. |

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. |

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. |

5th 9 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 4 |

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. |

Free-going front-runner; just 1-14 over hurdles but was seemingly back in good form when placed at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month; could take some catching if he gets into a good jumping rhythm on chasing debut. |

2-11 over hurdles, the latter win gained from the front at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in April; unseated rider at first fence on recent chasing debut but current mark ought to be workable if he avoids mishap; raced mainly on good/good to soft ground. |

2-11 over hurdles, the latter win gained from the front at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in April; not quite in same form when dropped back to 2m1f there in May and makes chase debut after three-month break but could have a say. |

Back in prime form when winning from the front here (2m3f, good) last month and now 2-10 over hurdles; recent 3lb rise certainly doesn't look excessive, and he ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
