23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Two wins for Peter Niven this year, the second of them a wide-margin success over C&D in April; unplaced in two turf runs for Roger Fell but could fare better back on AW. |

4th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Two wins at around 1m on AW this year; 1-22 on turf but he was only beaten a short head at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April (his final start for Peter Niven); seventh of 12 in this grade at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) on stable debut 22 days ago; place chance. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins for Joseph O'Brien and she's had plenty of chances to win a race in Britain but failed to do so; never figured at Wolverhampton on Monday. |
14/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won two of her first three starts (for Joseph O'Brien) but beaten 22 times since moving to Britain, including five runs for James Owen; creditable third over C&D two weeks ago (cheekpieces first time); each-way claims. |
3/1 |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Disappointing favourite at Brighton last time when perhaps stretched by 1m2f; bang there over 1m in her first two runs for this yard, though, including a third to Ribston Pippin at Yarmouth in August. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

On a long losing run; placed over C&D on his penultimate start but failed to back it up here last week (1m); others have more pressing claims. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Veteran whose eight wins came on the AW in France; returned to form when third here over 7f eight days ago and now needs to back that up; return to 1m is no problem. |

3rd 5 (3) |

Veteran whose eight wins came on the AW in France in his younger days; little of late to suggest he will prove a threat here. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Gained his fifth AW success when winning at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December; mixed results in four subsequent runs but he rallied for fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) in March; now returns to turf but he has placed form in this sphere and is not ruled out back up in trip. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Tapeta specialist who returned from a short break with an eye-catching third at Newcastle (1m) two weeks ago; has claims if he can back that up, but he's 0-11 on turf and has had only one run in this sphere in his last 14 starts; mixed messages. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins in the early part of 2025 including three over C&D; down to a handy mark again but he generally struggled during the winter and was beaten 11l at Wolverhampton (7f) last time; has something to prove after a short break and he needs a major revival back up in trip. |
7/1 |
|
6th 8 (9) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four wins in the early part of 2025 (7f and 1m); down to a handy mark again and his penultimate effort was a step back in the right direction; disappointed 12 days ago (slowly away) but a revival isn't out of the question. |

7th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Six-race maiden who has not really progressed and was sixth of 12 in a classified event at Southwell (1m) last month; made some late headway in that race but he needs improvement at this new trip. |

First signs of life for Amy Murphy, who he's since left, in a first-time hood over C&D early last month; that was still far from exciting, though, with him never looking like winning behind Mr Slicker. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Held on well to score at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) last month and has no stamina worries over this longer trip but recent 3lb rise is probably enough to leave this 8yo vulnerable to younger rivals here. |
5/1 |
|
1st 11 (2) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
A dual 7f/1m scorer at Redcar last autumn and she comes here in decent nick, suffering a poor run when seventh of ten in 8.5f Beverley handicap ten days ago; needs considering off a slipping mark. |
11/1 |
|
7th 8 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won three turf handicaps (1m/7f) in 2025, all in a tongue-tie and the latest with cheekpieces on for the first time; no headgear for either start last month (probably didn't stay 1m2f last time) and the accessories are missing again; back on her last winning mark, though. |

25th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Course regular; 0-7 since joining Tony Carroll but he was placed over C&D in November off a 3lb higher mark; minor money perhaps his best hope. |

7th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

All bar two of his 36 AW starts have been at Wolverhampton, winning four; 1lb lower than for the latest of those but hard to know how he will take to this track at the first time of asking. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Looked unlucky here in April, when getting well behind after a slow start over 1m, and his yard's in better form now than then; that's not the first time he's fluffed his lines at the stalls, though, and he can pull hard, so he comes with risks attached. |
