22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Made all in a C&D 0-115 in May (good) off 6lb lower; has it to prove that this isn't as good as he is nowadays, a subsequent Uttoxeter failure having come in a Class 2 which looks no stronger than today's. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
Made all for 13l success at Newton Abbot (2m5f, good) last time, ending a losing run that went back to 2024; still competitively handicapped on historical data and has won at up to 3m; not dismissed. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
12st 2lb |
Has patchy profile but he's well handicapped on his Taunton second (2m3f, good) in December and he may have needed his reappearance run at Hereford this month; this step back up in trip is no problem and he's one to keep an eye on for in-form yard. |

11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 44y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Best known as a very useful chaser; looked in good nick when second over hurdles three weeks ago but faces a daunting task on this Flat debut. |
20/1 |

2nd 1 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Way better chaser than a 1-18 return suggests (Grade 2 winner), and not too far off his best despite finishing just sixth in the Summer Plate latest; terrific strike-rate as a hurdler (ran up a five-timer in 2022), but continued effectiveness over these obstacles untested since autumn 2023. |
5/1 |

6th 2 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Two good runs in defeat at 3m before coming down at the Canal Turn in the Topham Trophy; went close to winning this two years ago and that was after a two-month break; definite possibilities, as this mark isn't beyond him; Harry Cobden has won the last three renewals of this race. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
2m1f mares' novice winner on sole previous course visit in 2024, but this last spring's far superior form efforts win or lose were recorded over stayers' trips; didn't offer anything on last month's Flat return. |

9th 7 (6) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Winless on the Flat since 2024 but she arrives in good form from a spell hurdling (scored at Wincanton in April); not out of things back in this sphere. |

2nd 6 |
26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Five wins on a variety of conditions, taking his form to a new level when winning the Class 3 Cartmel Cup (2m1f, good; 8-1) four weeks ago; competes from 5lb higher (up 21lb since February) but has shown (when fourth) that he can handle this sharp track. |

1st 6 |
29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Progressive for new stable since the autumn, collecting four wins (2m-2m1f, good-heavy) along the way; below form when tried over 2m5f last week (no headgear) but was fourth in last month's Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen (2m, good; first-time cheekpieces; refitted today) and is now 2lb lower. |
10/1 |

4th 6 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Interesting he was still staying on into fourth (about 23l ahead of Letterston Lily) at the end of a generously run Summer Hurdle last time, though remains untried beyond a sharp 2m4f; 7lb higher mark than for June's easy 2m1f win here leaves him with almost nothing in hand. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 122y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
2-2 in stayers' handicaps here; June's Hexham third to Divilabother (hat-trick scorer subsequently) looks better form now than then, and he's resumed winning ways over a 2m4f trip at the lowest end of his range since; disinterest in contesting the early pace might prove an asset today; big player. |

1st 1 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Back in good form in refitted cheepieces this spring, winning twice at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) before very respectable third at Hexham (2m7f, good); not sure to be ideally suited by today's drop back in trip or the switch back to blinkers but still considered. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 4 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Veteran who returned to form when landing a gamble at Newton Abbot (good; cheekpieces added) last month and followed up there 21 days later off a 6lb higher mark; now up to a career-high mark off a further 5lb rise but remains unexposed as a stayer. |
