21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 2m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
All three wins at 2m, the latest coming here last month on good to firm (Class 4); this is a different ball game altogether and he'd be receiving lumps of weight off most of these in a handicap. |

18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has resumed in good form and a 2lb rise for his recent AW win here under Ashley Lewis seems fair; has yet to win on turf (only run on it once since 2023) but otherwise has a decent chance of following up. |
7/4 |

1st 5 (1) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has modest 1-28 strike-rate (includes five hurdle runs) but was denied a clear run before finishing well for close third over C&D last month and gets another chance off the same mark today; respected. |
5/2 |

3rd 7 (10) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Twice finished placed here last year (2m/1m4f); not ruled out each-way but this is his first run since October so he may improve for it, and he's won just one of his 27 starts. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Placed on numerous occasions, including at Southwell, but remains a longstanding maiden and he's been beaten around 12l in his two runs this year; blinkers return and cheekpieces are removed. |
16/1 |
|
7th 7 (5) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Placed numerous times, including at Southwell, but remains a longstanding maiden and sole effort this year doesn't suggest he's about to belatedly get off the mark. |
20/1 |
|
7th 11 (7) |
2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
36-race maiden but he went close in two turf handicaps (1m4f) last summer; returns after 210 days off but he's effective on Tapeta and is not ruled out on his first run since rejoining Micky Hammond; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |

9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Convincing winner at Catterick (2m, good) in August and following effort was respectable; ran no race last time at Chester but wouldn't be without hope if back on song. |
20/1 |
|
11th 13 (1) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Returned to turf with convincing win at Catterick (2m good) last month and has the plum inside draw here but had to settle for fifth off new mark a fortnight ago and may find younger rivals better handicapped again. |
12/1 |
|
1 (8) |
28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Five-time AW winner whose success at Catterick (2m, good) three weeks ago was a first win on turf for nearly four years; might need a fraction more up 4lb but that was a pretty convincing success; Colin Keane's first ride for the yard; respected. |

31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
10yo whose easily most successful season was 2025, with four wins; the latest was at this track (2m) in December and he's held his form, including over C&D, so has each-way claims once again. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner whose most recent success came at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) off this mark in December; beaten 2l when fourth of seven there nine days ago, despite failing to settle, and there's no reason to suggest he won't go well. |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent veteran who made the frame on his last six appearances and is now back on same mark as for C&D win in December; likely to be on the premises. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
1-13; won at Southwell (2m, AW) off 3lb lower in February and he ran a fine race when third behind Balgowan over that same C&D in April; below form at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) 37 days ago but he was caught quite wide for a part of the race; yard won this last year. |
7/1 |

19th May 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Had little trouble in shaking off his rivals when upped to 2m at Southwell in February and he ran a sound race in defeat when third over that C&D in April; looks one of the better options if proving suited by this track on first run here. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
A lot of years since his trainer saddled a Flat winner and he'll do very well to end the run, back from almost a year off and from 6lb out of the handicap under Venetia Thompson (0-7 under both codes currently). |
100/1 |

26th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Both wins on AW, the latest over three years ago; well held on AW at Southwell when last seen and not hard to look elsewhere. |
