23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Not far away in one of these big-field C&D races last July; showed at Doncaster that month that he can win on turf and he's not been far away in any of his races this year, so he has place claims. |
16/1 |

5th 2 (5) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Last win came on Chelmsford Polytrack (7f; from 4lb lower) last October; kept in decent form (4224243) this year, a sticking-on third at Nottingham (8.5f, good) 12 days ago to Saturday's Ripon scorer Highland Olly; Paul Mulrennan is a noted booking. |

Consistent in defeat on AW this year, reaching the frame for the sixth outing in succession when fourth of 13 at Southwell (1m) 11 days ago; turf winner last year; likely to be thereabouts. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
A regular on the AW here (three wins) who's much higher in the weights than when last seen frequently on turf; generally consistent but whether he's up to this mark on grass is the leading question, and Quamby looks his trainer's best chance. |
25/1 |

13th 14 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time winner over 1m/1m2f here and just 1lb higher than when beating a dual subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in January, but he has the outside stall and will require some luck given his come-from-behind style. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
All wins at 7f/1m but he was placed twice over 5f in Bahrain during the winter; met trouble when second favourite at Chester (extended 7f) on his return to Britain 17 days ago; harder to pin down than some of these and certainly not discounted. |
12/1 |

7th 5 (1) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
All wins have been over 7f and 1m so it arguably bodes well for his prospects here that he's performed well over sprint trips in Bahrain this year; very good second in this race (good ground) last year from an outside stall and this front-runner has fared a lot better with the draw this time; top of the list. |
11/2 |
|
1st 6 (2) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who has won three times this year and latest was over C&D in June; couldn't hang in there at Galway (sixth of 15) last time but that was a respectable effort from a tough draw and he still looks on a workable mark; dangerous dropped back in grade. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

Hard to fault on the score of consistency this year but it's nearly two years since his last success and others appeal as likelier winners. |
8/1 |

2nd 3 (7) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Both wins came over C&D in 2023, but losing run now up to 17 despite a slipping mark; beaten only 3l into fifth of 13 at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) eight days ago and could play a part if building on that in the returning cheekpieces. |
5/1 |

12 (7) |
25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Both wins over 7f at Wolverhampton; has form at 1m, too, but he hasn't excelled himself in two C&D starts and others have stronger claims. |

9st 9lb |
His last two wins were over 7f in 2024 but he's well treated on his old form and he ran well on a few occasions at up to 1m2f last season; seems to handle most ground and he needs watching in market after six months off; cheekpieces removed. |

29th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |

Arrives in great form, having won three of his four turf starts this season, two of those here over 7f and the latest over C&D; up another 4lb but looked like he had a bit more up his sleeve last time; big player. |
9/4 |

1st 5 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Thrives here - form figures 72111 - twice accounting for Vince Le Prince over 7f last month; weakened at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago, but this track is a much better fit, and he's unlikely to be hindered by rain; still fairly treated off 67 based on historic form. |

9st 10lb |
Progressive in 2025, coming right away for a 1m Redcar win on yard debut before following up on Kempton AW (7f); races freely and saw too much daylight at Newmarket (1m, good) in October but, hanging on well for third, she lost nothing in defeat; up against it in a Listed AW race at Kempton in March but it was a good return; has another handicap in her. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Three wins last May/July at about 1m on various ground and he's back down to his last winning mark; ended 2025 quietly and there's a suspicion he'll improve for this comeback run; withdrawn after getting upset in the stalls at Ripon two weeks ago (25-1 at the time). |
