27th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Has gained his wins over 6f on turf and 7f on AW; inconsistent since last success and has something to prove over this trip in this sphere; change of headgear. |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

C&D winner who hasn't run over this trip since February; below best on last two outings and plenty to prove from widest draw back on AW. |

11th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |

Regained the winning thread at Newbury in April; inconsistent results over C&D since; each-way possibilities on penultimate effort (good second) but isn't guaranteed to reproduce it. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Has five wins, four being on AW but losing run stretches back to May 2024; gets little respite from the handicapper but has run with credit on all three starts this year. |

5th 7 (3) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Getting on for two years since his last win but he has run two solid races in defeat this year, not ideally drawn when sixth at Newbury last month; effective over C&D and well handicapped; good chance. |

6th 12 (13) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Getting on for two years since his last win but he was a good second in this race last year (off 2lb higher mark) and he returned to action with a promising third at Kempton three weeks ago; solid contender. |

Three wins for two previous yards and the first for this one when winning narrowly at Newmarket (6f, good) in September, following a protracted slog with the runner-up; comes here fit from the AW but he'll need a bit extra to win in a higher grade than at Newmarket. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Tough mare who won two handicaps around this time last year, scoring at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and following up at Goodwood (7f, good) 18 days later; registered plenty of other good efforts last term and was back on the scoresheet with narrow win at Yarmouth (7f, good) 11 days ago; something to find on the figures but she's the type to make her presence felt. |
10/1 |

9st 11lb |
Last season went well in 6f/7f handicaps and was only 3l away in a Group 3 on one occasion; however, that campaign ended badly and her reappearance at the Craven meeting was no better. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |

Promising second on reappearance at Newcastle and better than the bare results suggest since, meeting significant trouble in running in a big field at York last time; could play a major role if getting the breaks. |
11/1 |
|
15th 19 (11) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Merely fifth on his last two starts, following a very promising second on his reappearance at Newcastle (6f, AW); however, he won this last year (good to firm) and is handicapped to be in the mix if he's back on song. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 (2) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Not much room for manoeuvre off this mark but has resumed in good form, latterly when inclined to pull hard at Newmarket (6f) in a race not run to suit; usually ridden patiently these days but has made all more than once in the past; a lot may hinge on how things unfold early. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
7f turf (heavy) and AW winner but without success since 2023; inconsistent but his better efforts of the last 12 months would give him each-way claims from this mark. |
12/1 |
|
13th 20 (19) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Very useful on his day for previous yard; nowhere near the same force for his current one but his mark reflects that and he looked to be coming to hand when fourth of 22 over 7f at here at last week's Dante meeting, travelling comfortably in the lead for a long way; not discounted back at 6f. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 21 (6) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Useful on his day for previous yard but is far from solid on form, mostly over 6f, for current stable; it remains to be seen whether this step back up in distance makes a difference. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Improved on the AW last winter with two wins at this trip (beat City House second occasion); turf return came at Newmarket early this month, showing plenty of pace until weakening final furlong in finishing creditable fourth in very valuable contest; remains on a handy mark compared to AW so has to be respected. |
10/1 |
|
4th 5 (10) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Enough evidence to point to him being a superior performer on AW but that is reflected in a handicap mark that is 9lb lower on grass; that said, it is still 11lb higher than when twice beaten at the Curragh last September and he'll need to leave his turf form well behind if he is to win. |
12/1 |
|
11th 1 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Inconsistent but talented when trained by Harry Eustace; on the up for his new stable, winning 6f handicaps in fine style last November and in February; could well have more to offer on AW but it will require a mighty performance to defy top weight in this field. |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Has five C&D wins on his resume, including two Wokinghams and two Group 3s; getting on for two years since his last win though and this might be too competitive these days. |
14/1 |
|
3 (11) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Hold-up sprinter who has been a source of frustration since his last win in October 2023; on a lowly mark and his four C&D runs this year have all been competitive; shouldn't be far away. |
9/1 |

8th 7 (5) |
8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
These conditions bring out the best in him and was taking his C&D record to 4-6 when finishing with a flourish to win a strong handicap last month; remains capable of further progress and although he has something to find at the weights, a bigger concern is the prospect of a tactical event. |
3/1 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Better on AW than turf and his C&D record reads 31511 (including this race 12 months ago); endured a troubled passage at Newcastle on his most recent AW run and still looked in form; no show in the Stewards' Cup but this is altogether more suitable; Oisin Murphy rides for the first time. |
4/1 |
|
27 (20) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Capable off this mark and he didn't enjoy a clear run at Newcastle five weeks ago (6f); all his best form has come on AW though and nothing in his turf record suggests he's the answer. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Arrives in good heart, following a third to Badri at Windsor with a battling success on the same course (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; up 5lb for the win but that form was boosted when runner-up Trefor went one better here on Wednesday; needs to be considered. |
16/1 |

1st 9 (4) |
11th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |

Generally consistent for current yard and recent form features a Chepstow success; met traffic issues on his way to third behind Badri and Inishfallen over C&D last time; solid claims. |
10/1 |
|
6 (6) |
28th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
First win since his 2yo debut when scoring off a reduced mark at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago; back up 5lb but his confidence should be boosted after that success and he has been generally consistent in handicaps; shortlisted. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Shaped okay at Lingfield in January; down the field at Leicester last month but he was harried up front and weakened in the final furlong; dropped 2lb and this easier track will help; one to consider. |
9/2 |
|
10th 10 (3) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Ran creditably at Lingfield in January when bidding for a 6f AW double; 8lb higher than when second at Newmarket (7f) on last turf attempt but he's proved consistent since being gelded and his first two handicap wins were on good to firm; in the mix. |
