17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Off the mark for the season when winning a 1m2f handicap at Doncaster 16 days ago, suited by the strong pace; 3lb higher mark to contend with and his stamina isn't assured. |
100/30 |

1st 3 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Some return to form in his last two races and wasn't far away over 1m here last time when a stronger pace would have helped; interesting returned to further, having won over this far. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Latest Nottingham third in this headgear was a bit better and he'll be a threat to all if recapturing the form he showed when a close second over C&D (good to firm) off 2lb higher in April, particularly with Jack Callan taking an additional 3lb off. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Last attempt on AW resulted in account-opening success at Chelmsford (1m) in February; return to 1m2f is worth exploring; interesting back in this sphere. |

6th 8 (5) |
15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Has found her level having performed creditably in her last four races without looking ahead of her mark; seems tactically versatile. |
10/1 |

3rd 2 (4) |
22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has shown improvement in last three races, producing form figures of 212 (gained the win on AW; sole start under Fred Daly); ran creditably at Doncaster (again over 1m) most recently; solid contender. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hanging to his left may have cost him dear when a close fourth behind Barnsnape Boy in a C&D classified event 12 days ago; each-way claims if keeping straighter. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often a front-runner; returns to turf for the first time since winning a 0-60 handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last July but he does appear to face a difficult task on these terms. |
20/1 |
|
9th 12 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Front-runner who won over C&D in 2024; beaten around 6l when third here in January but he's been well held in two starts since; others preferred. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Mainly campaigned over shorter but does stay this far; 399 days off before this season; never-never fourth of seven at Musselburgh (7f) last night was probably his most positive display since; back on his last winning mark. |
5/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not fired in two runs back from a 399-day absence; has won at this track and he is on a handy mark so not impossible he'll bounce back, for all the trip is on the sharp side. |

13th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
His heyday was two winters back but he still won last July (1m1f on turf) and is often thereabouts, including on Tapeta; not totally ruled out despite the 106-day absence. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a sixth success when winning a 12-runner handicap at Redcar (1m1f, good to soft) in July; kept at in when fourth at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) under a penalty six days later and excuses both starts since; very much respected. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (9) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has won three times over 7f here; best run this year when winning over 1m1f at Redcar three runs back; stamina to prove on first run at 1m4f (can pull hard). |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Goes well here; all four AW wins have been over C&D; third over C&D last month but below his best at Bath since; looks sure to go close at his favoured track. |
14/1 |
|
8th 6 (10) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His last four wins have come on AW at Wolverhampton; six C&D runs have yielded formfigures of 243234; third at Wolverhampton 12 days ago (for today's rider) and he should be in the thick of the action once again. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 10 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time C&D winner, latterly off 4lb higher in February; fine on Polytrack but the return here is an obvious plus off a career-low mark and he's another with claims in an open handicap. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed mare who is often slowly away; however, her form at the Newmarket July course features a success (over 7f) last summer and close third (over 1m) last week; may remain competitive. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can miss the break and has a patchy profile; bounced back with a close second over C&D (good to firm) last month but she hung left when fourth of six here (7f, good to firm) last time; hood is now added on this step back up in trip but she comes with risks attached. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Can miss the break but she won this race last year off 10lb lower and swiftly got over a Chester aberration when second of 11 here (1m, good to firm) under Arron D'Arcy four weeks ago; a player. |
