28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Bumper winner; fair form in three runs over hurdles at up to 2m7f, and when third on last month's chase debut at Worcester (2m7f, good; cheekpieces back on); unexposed; improvement likely. |

3rd 2 |
10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner here and elsewhere in 2024-25 (good); just gently progressive in defeat in novice/maiden hurdles since over a year out, but chaser-laden pedigree (family of Our Vic) offers hope that he'll prove somewhat better over fences, as well he must granted an ungenerous initial mark. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Battled well for narrow win at Cartmel (3m1f, good) in July, his third start over fences, and kept on well from unpromising position to take second over C&D (good to firm) last month; still well handicapped on hurdle form; swaps usual cheekpieces for refitted blinkers; likely contender. |

2nd 3 |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Improved on his two previous runs over fences when scoring in a tight finish at Cartmel last time (3m1f, good); that form is nothing special, but he's only 1lb higher so could go well again. |

1st 2 |
18th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Not seen over fences since two disappointing attempts in spring 2024 but in good form over hurdles, notably when winning at Hexham (2m7f, good) in May; reverts to chasing on a lower mark; player if able to find some fluency. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Novice chaser who opened his rules account in C&D event (good) in May; last few efforts show that he's in a consistent vein of form; solid claims returned to this scenario. |

3rd 5 |
10th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Gained breakthrough win at Uttoxeter (3m, good) in May and, following a wind op, performed well in defeat on last two appearances (3m/3m2f); swaps usual cheekpices for first-time visor; commands respect. |
7/4 |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Two good 3m runs at Uttoxeter this summer, winning on first occasion (good) and finishing second of 14 last time (good; first run after wind op); should go well if as effective here. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 65y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Has mixed record this year and is not easy to predict but won off today's mark here (2m5f, good) in April and ran well until stamina ebbed away here (3m2f, good to firm) last month; drops back in trip and swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor; contender if on a going day. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |

Won over 2m5f here on chase debut, but was disappointing on next three starts over fences (jumped badly right on third occasion); fair second back hurdling last time; questions to answer back over fences. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Bettered a disappointing stable debut when clear second to progressive rival over C&D (good) in June; effectively 2lb lower today but well beaten all three starts since and needs to bounce back again. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Well handicapped on old form for Sam England and proved he retains ability when second at Hexham (3m, good) in June, his second run after a long absence; well beaten twice since, though, and needs to bounce back again. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |

Not the force of old, but on a good mark now; good second to an in-form rival at Hexham in June (3m, good) but poor efforts either side of that. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Scored twice over hurdles (at up to 3m) late in 2025 but has struggled to recapture that form over fences and hurdles this season; now on a good mark but not easy to make a case for on recent evidence. |

8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Scored twice over hurdles (at up to 3m) late in 2025 but has offered little in both codes this season and was pulled up in 3m2f handicap chase at Sedgefield 11 days ago; not easy to make a case for. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Has won twice since December (2m5f/2m7f) and kept on pretty well for second of five at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) last month but he's too inconsistent to rely upon heavily; others preferred. |
9/2 |

2nd 2 |
14th Sep 2026 Good 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Led close home in first-time cheekpieces here (2m5f, soft) last December and was also successful in four-runner race at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to firm) in May; too inconsistent to rely upon heavily and came to grief here last month but he's on a good mark if all goes to plan. |
5/1 |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 2f 59y Class 5 |

Two chase wins, the first over 2m5f here (soft) in December, the second at Huntingdon in May (2m7f, good to firm; four ran); decent third at Market Rasen last time; one with a chance. |
