29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
A three-time AW winner (around 1m2f) in 2025; lightly raced this season and below par after a five-month absence in 1m2f handicaps at Sandown and Haydock last two runs; needs to take a big step forward. |
33/1 |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
10-34 on AW but latest well-held fifth on good to firm at Sandown took his turf record to a much less impressive 2-20; going softer than good arguably suits him slightly better but still hard to be confident. |
25/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Has a good 10-34 record on AW but his turf strike-rate is only 2-19; has a lower mark in this sphere but off since finishing last of six at Wolverhampton in March and a watching brief is the percentage call. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 6lb |
Reached the frame twice in similar races on AW under Brodie Hampson in February; well treated on those efforts but hasn't found the same form back on turf this summer and he was laboured at Haydock last week. |
14/1 |

7th 11 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Reached the frame twice in similar races on AW under Brodie Hampson in February; well treated on those efforts but hasn't found the same form back on turf (good to firm/good) after a break, including well behind Star Start and Austrian Theory at Catterick 17 days ago; the return to softer ground could help but leap of faith needed. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Landed a good prize off today's mark at Lingfield (1m4f) on Good Friday but has mixed record since; ought to have been suited by the soft ground when midfield at Salisbury (1m4f) recently; others appeal more. |
15/2 |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 44y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
1m4f AW winner in April followed by two good efforts; not so good since and although he still took third at Windsor (good to soft) last time, new trip needs to spark something if he's to improve his modest strike-rate. |
14/1 |

14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |

1m4f AW handicap winner in April and followed that with two good efforts, including here; however, he finds winning difficult and no real positives to take from his last three races. |

Encouraging start for new stable culminated in Windsor success in April; has failed to back up that form in two starts since, last of three runners latest; rebound required. |
9/1 |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Low-key effort at Windsor four weeks ago but she'd begun her life with this yard with three good efforts, notably a 1m2f Windsor success on fast turf; considered. |
11/2 |
|
5th 10 (11) |
26th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Has shown steadily progressive form (421) this term for new yard, gaining a narrow win over C&D (good to firm) most recently; however, she's been campaigned largely in lower grades and now goes into deeper waters; got upset in stalls and was withdrawn at Newbury ten days ago. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Bath (1m2f, firm), beating Galaxy Wonder by half a length on the latest occasion; up another 2lb, but still a big player in his current mood. |
5/1 |

1st 5 (1) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |

Most wins on the AW but it was his third success on the grass when coming home 2.5l to the good over C&D two weeks ago; defying the 5lb rise shouldn't be beyond him. |
9/2 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf but he's in form, creditable third at Lingfield on Good Friday last time; gained last win off 5lb higher (in July 2024); shortlisted. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Fairly useful four-time AW Flat winner for Charlie Johnston but 0-17 on turf for that yard; ran poorly at Lingfield (AW) 16 days ago and changed hands for 1,000gns since; best watched on hurdles debut. |
33/1 |

Four AW wins, including C&D, and returns from a six-month break on a manageable mark; more good runs than bad at this track and he's not discounted. |

Five-time course winner, but he's never scored beyond 1m2f and his last success was in November 2023; well handicapped on his old form but he's been well held in last four starts and latest was over 1m6f here last month; opposable. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Easily best known for his achievements at Wolverhampton, so he returns to serious calculations after two runs elsewhere; first-time blinkers make this a very rare run on headgear, though, and he was behind in the others. |
7/1 |

6th 1 (10) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Exposed 6yo who excels at Wolverhampton; only 1-20 on turf but he wasn't disgraced in a higher grade over 1m2f at Chester. |

5th 10 (7) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |

Exposed 6yo who excels at Wolverhampton where's he won five times and yet on turf he's 1-19; close fourth on his favourite patch 12 days ago and 4lb lower back on the grass, but he wouldn't be the percentage call on first visit here. |

15th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Spent nearly all of his long career with Ed Dunlop but lost his form in 2025 and has not staged a recovery in his two starts for new yard this term; well down the weights but others are more persuasive. |
8/1 |

7th 4 (2) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Well handicapped on even last year's best form for Ed Dunlop; 25-1 and shaped with more promise than the distance beaten suggests at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) in June; back to a more suitable trip today and he's an intriguing contender. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Quite smart at his best for Ed Dunlop and he goes well on slow ground; however, essentially regressive in 2025 and new trainer has to turn him around. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Won on the Flat in May but was safely held on both hurdling starts this year (both in 2m handicaps in July) and reverts to this code after a very poor Flat run last month; stablemate Chillhi looks a safer option. |

9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Had a good run of form in 1m2f-1m5f handicaps (1423) before tailed off in his last two hurdle races and he's a dual winner in that scene; some wellbeing concerns all of a sudden. |
8/1 |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won twice over hurdles in the autumn (2m4f/2m7f) and has been in good form on the Flat in recent weeks but was well beaten when back over hurdles on Saturday (2m; raced too freely) and has a point to prove here. |
16/1 |
