18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a hat-trick on the AW early last year, the final leg off 2lb lower; back in form lately, most recently in a race that didn't pan out his way, but needs a bit more back on turf from the lowest stall (likely to be dropped in again). |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Awarded Lingfield handicap in early 2025 before going 2-2 over this C&D; just four starts since the latest of those wins last March and firmly back on track when edged out at Chelmsford one month ago; 2lb nudge can't be quibbled with and he needs considering. |

2nd 4 (1) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Notched a hat-trick in the first three months of last year, latterly off a 1lb lower mark; not as good now but remains consistent enough and unlikely to be far away. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Veteran with 18 wins on his CV, including over C&D; last success was from the front at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May but he's been well held in both runs since; bit to prove again but has possibilities if he can bounce back. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time winner whose last success was over C&D in May; hasn't made a serious impact since then but he did best of the hold-up performers here (fifth of 11) here last time and is now back on his last winning mark; dangerous. |
11/2 |
|
5th 2 (9) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Resumed winning ways over C&D in May and in good form until just seventh of 12 in 6f Newmarket handicap 25 days ago; the sort to bounce back. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (11) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Dual C&D winner (also third last month) who made a successful start for the Jane Chapple-Hyam stable over 6f at Newmarket (good) 13 days ago, well on top at the finish and recording a career-best RPR; had the advantage of the rail but his 7lb rise is offset by Toby Moore's claim and his record here affords him respect. |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time turf winner who was in good form when placed on his last four starts for Ross Burdon, notably when 9lb out of the handicap but third at Ascot (6f, good to firm; Fifty Nifty a head in front) a fortnight ago; bought for 11,000gns on Wednesday and he's effectively off the same mark with Billy Loughnane taking over; two runs in blinkers (2023) were not his best but still looks a player on stable debut. |
7/2 |

3rd 15 (7) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Two C&D wins to his name; back to form for Ross Burdon, runner-up in his last three starts, but he's upped in class today and has it to do from 9lb out of the weights. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Good second over C&D last month but not quite in the same form back here 17 days ago; likely to run his race and more minor money could be on the cards; cheekpieces now added. |
9/1 |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Expensive to follow since joining Ivan Furtado but he usually gives his running; dropping back to 5f isn't sure to be of benefit. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Quite prolific on the AW but sole turf win was back in August 2024 and this is his first course start; below par since running well on sand in April and he has it to prove despite dropping in the weights. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (10) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins have come over 5f but he has won three times over 6f, including around here; held lately, but he drops to this level for the first time in over two years and is 4-9 in 0-60 handicaps or lower; interesting. |
7/1 |

11th 11 (7) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time AW winner who went close at Lingfield (5f) in March and ran well there over 6f in April, finishing third of five (beaten a length); never got involved there 28 days ago but he could go well returned to 6f. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Has won over a similar trip to this but latest success was over 7f and he was staying on all too late when third to Neptune Legend over C&D earlier this year; he'll need a strong pace to chase. |
20/1 |

5th 7 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Doubled his winning tally when beating four rivals (including Too Much Trevor) over C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago; only 2lb higher and may be the one to capitalise if Prefer The Sister runs below form. |
6/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

1-26 but generally consistent; didn't show any obvious improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when third here (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago and likely to be competing for minor honours. |

Veteran with 14 wins on his CV; kept on for third when dropped back to 5f at Newcastle 12 days ago but is inconsistent nowadays and younger rivals appeal more. |

|
3rd 8 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Veteran who never featured in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton nine days ago; drops back to 5f with a point to prove. |

8th 6 (1) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Slow-starting veteran who is having his 100th outing this evening; he has won 14 times already and his latest Newcastle fourth was a solid effort; should go well again. |
10/1 |
