17th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Won his first four starts on Tapeta after the visor went back on, rising 34lb in the process; however, he could only manage a midfield finish off this mark at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) on Wednesday which means he has something to prove all of a sudden. |

Impressive in Class 6 at Wolverhampton 11 days ago, completing a quickfire 7f four-timer; hit with another hefty rise in the weights and steps up two grades but he is better than ever; shortlisted. |

Five-time AW winner but 0-24 on turf; will appreciate this ease in grade but has been out of form since returning from a break in June; needs to turn things around. |

Very rarely goes this far and it's a long time since he won at higher than 0-55 level; always a chance he'll miss the break too and he's some way down the pecking order. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Won twice over C&D in the autumn of 2024; not running badly when last seen but he returns from six months off and likely vulnerable. |

|
4th 8 (2) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

19th Feb 2026 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

He has run some fair races this winter (had a third wind op prior to his return in October) but he was never in contention behind The Gay Blade over C&D nine days ago; others appeal more for win purposes. |

1st 4 (9) |
14th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest three wins at 6f/7f in early 2023 but he confirmed he's perfectly effective over C&D when running well against a next-time winner in January (first-time visor); another sound effort back over 7f since; solid claims for in-form yard. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 (9) |
4th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Five wins here including two over this trip; one of his better recent efforts when second of 11 in a 0-50 classified event over 1m here (first-time visor) 12 days ago; could go well but a losing run of 21 tempers enthusiasm. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Best known for his Newcastle work but goes well here too; consistent enough and the handicapper has given him a chance, back on the AW and given another try without the usual hood. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ran respectably, albeit without being able to justify favouritism, at Chepstow latest start and is back on last winning mark; however, he's a quirky sort who comes with some risk; steps back up in class. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Five of his six wins have come on AW; didn't look straightforward without usual hood or tongue-tie (back on here) when fourth of seven at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; two things in his favour here are that he is the only distance winner in the field and this represents a drop in grade, so he needs to be considered seriously. |

All four wins over 7f, including twice in quick succession over 7f at Catterick (good) in May, but he was second on his previous C&D visit; returned to form when 2l fourth of five at Musselburgh (7f) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) three weeks ago but he remains 4lb above those winning marks. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
She wasn't winning out of turn when successful at Ayr (6f, good) 25 days ago; fully effective at Hamilton and seems to handle soft ground so she's respected, for all she hasn't been missed with a 7lb rise for last time. |
6/1 |

1st 5 (13) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
All five wins between July and October last year, at 6f and 5f, including this race (good); runner-up four times this year and her latest Hamilton run can be consigned to history as she'd run the day before; respected, although serious rain wouldn't be ideal. |
8/1 |

9th 10 (2) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |

One of five wins in the second half of last season was over C&D in August; four seconds (including over 5f/6f here) from the back in her last five starts this term, back to form at Musselburgh last night; each-way claims. |

Record of 1-33 reflects her limitations, certainly over shorter trips; chance largely depends on the effects of this belated second crack at 1m2f. |

4th 7 (10) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |

Three runs here include a neck defeat by stablemate Where's The Crumpet (1m, good to soft) last May and when taking a division of this race (soft) under Gina Mangan last year; that remains her only win and she's been off since April; market may help to decipher if this has been the target. |

5th 14 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Off the mark at Carlisle (1m) last July but her more recent form is less encouraging and she's finished down the field here (1m/7f) in last three starts; overall record is 1-31 and others are preferred; yard also runs Martin's Brig and Wheres The Crumpet. |
