8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive gelding who can pull hard and has hung left a couple of times since returned to turf, including here; most racing over 5f and his record over this trip is hard to enthuse about, for all that this is easier snd he's in a new headgear combination. |

Not as good as he was and although that is reflected in his handicap mark, others bring more pressing claims. |

3-25; most recent win came off 16lb higher at Goodwood (5f, good) in August 2023; pulled hard at Chelmsford (5f, AW) when last seen in February; refused to enter stalls in March and returns to turf with hood reapplied. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Took advantage of a sliding mark round Lingfield in the winter (last four wins come there but is fine on Tapeta); off the boil since and this is a bit tougher; would want to see some support tonight. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
In good form at Lingfield during the winter and is a bit of specialist over 6f there (112121), but he has won over this C&D; latest Kempton effort not hard to forgive given his record at that track and could easily bounce back; shortlisted. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

In good form at Lingfield lately and has become a bit of a specialist over 6f there (112121); it's a different story here (8770) and that would be the concern. |

Won 5f Catterick maiden as a 2yo; has struggled in handicaps for more than a year but the drop to this grade could help and first-time cheekpieces may also assist. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |

Much lower in the weights than when making the frame in her first three starts last year, but that's for a good reason with her form in four outings for this yard since last November decidedly moderate; look elsewhere. |

All wins at 6f up to two years ago but last five successes at 5f, most recently off much the same mark at Wolverhampton before Christmas; has beaten a total of two rivals in his last three starts, however, so more needs to be done back at 6f; cheekpieces refitted in place of a visor. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Five-time AW winner (6f/7f), who scored at Kempton in January and at Chelmsford in March; no joy in last four runs but he's had another wind operation and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid on this return to AW. |
12/1 |

5th 8 (10) |
4th Aug 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has only ever placed once on turf, that coming over C&D (good to firm) a year ago, and isn't as good as on the AW but he is handicapped accordingly; didn't look to have any excuses here six weeks ago and today's slower ground may not be optimal. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two front-running wins on Polytrack earlier in the year and ran as well as could have been expected in better company last time; currently rated a stone lower on turf (for a good reason) but did go close over C&D last July off a 4lb lower mark. |

Most wins have come in the second half of the year and always after a recent outing; returns from four months off and she might need a bit more help from the handicapper. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Six-time turf winner who is 1-15 on AW, but that win was over C&D in November and she was placed here (6f) three weeks ago; has wide draw this time but she's tactically versatile and could go well again on this drop back in grade. |
14/1 |

1st 9 (2) |
30th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Has a patchy record but she won at Windsor (6f, good) in July and was a close third over C&D (heavy) ten days ago; 1lb lower than for that last run and has claims if she can back that up. |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

Course winner over 5f on heavy ground in September and she has also won on good to firm; ended last season out of sorts and she was well held on her return at Leicester (6f, good) 16 days ago; hood is removed and tongue-tie is applied; bit to prove. |

Turf wins have come on stiff tracks, at 6f and 5f; had another good season in 2025 but it ended quietly in the autumn and she now has a hood refitted for the first time in over two years; has a bit to prove. |

Last three turf wins came on this track, on extremes of going; went quiet on the AW earlier in the year but he came from a long way back to take a late third over C&D in May and has better claims than most. |

Acts of firm and heavy ground; triple course winner who scored at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in January but he's been quiet there in last three runs; has bit to prove and needs to rediscover his spark back on turf. |

Pretty consistent last spring-autumn but doesn't win very often and made a low-key reappearance over C&D last month; needs to have taken significant benefit from that recent outing. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

Remains generally consistent but is moderate these days and there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh; this a bit tougher than he's used to on his return from a layoff. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |

Losing run is mounting up but he has a few pieces of encouraging recent C&D form; creditable third to State Of Madness, despite traffic issues, last week; in the mix. |
7/2 |
Verdict
Provided his latest effort is backed up, FAI FAI has an excellent chance back down two grades. Sisters In The Sky, Brunel Charm and Watermelon Sugar look the biggest dangers, in that order of preference.[Steve Boow]
