14th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
10yo who won this in 2023; frequently runs well in quality handicaps and he's 5lb lower than when a cracking third in the Royal Hunt Cup last June; scratched from the Lincoln when running a temperature on his intended comeback last month and he tends to improve for a run these days; also winless since 2023. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
9yo who has drawn a blank since winning on the July Course in summer 2023 and needs everything to drop right but he often runs extremely well in defeat, including when third in the Royal Hunt Cup in June; another respectable effort when sixth of 20 in Balmoral at Ascot (1m, good) a fortnight ago; not discounted in this slightly easier race. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Blinkers reinstated for last two starts, on first occasion making most to score by 6l in a six-runner race at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm); had this 10lb higher mark when fair fifth of 13 at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago, galloping on as if a return to this trip (he won a 1m4f novice last term) would be okay; needs to resume improvement, though. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Came up shy in his first three handicaps but, with blinkers reinstated, he made most to score by 6l in a six-runner race at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) on latest; more to prove on softer ground and given he's 10lb higher in a much stronger race. |
4/1 |

2 (5) |
18th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
6l novice win at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last July with first-time blinkers; has come up shy in handicaps on all three starts since, absent since August (gelded) when fifth of 11 at Goodwood 15 days ago; kept hanging in the closing stages that day and the blinkers are reinstated; unraced on firmer than good; this is a small field but others are still a bit more persuasive. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
9yo who was down the field at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last time but was running consistently well prior to that; this C&D winner has an each-way chance if bouncing back. |
25/1 |
|
9th 1 (10) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Hearty strike-rate on turf, adding another in a Racing League race at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July; less of a win machine on AW but both wins have come on this track, over C&D and 1m4f in early 2024, and he was involved in a tight finish back on AW at Wolverhampton two starts ago; not far away. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Dual winner for Jane Chapple-Hyam but has been quite disappointing since the latest of those wins; held in two starts since undergoing wind surgery and blinkers are now tried instead of cheekpieces; down another 3lb. |
12/1 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won his first two handicaps as a 3yo but has regressed for two yards since; held on his AW comeback from wind surgery three weeks ago but is entitled to come on for that and this is weaker in second-time cheekpieces. |
6/1 |
|
9th 3 (7) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice for Jane Chapple-Hyam in 2024; 0-4 for current yard and has had wind surgery since has last run in October; best watched for now. |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
All four wins at about this trip on the AW including one over C&D in March of last year; beaten only a nose in a competitive event at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) 13 days ago and one to take seriously from just 1lb higher. |
4/1 |

5 (3) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won four consecutive starts on the AW between March 2024 and June this year, including over C&D (2-2); solid fourth of eight at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) last month and shortlisted having fallen 1lb below her last winning mark. |
8/1 |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Glorious Goodwood defeat took her turf record to 0-10; she's 4-6 on AW, all wins at about 1m; possibilities returned to this sphere off last winning mark, assuming she proves as effective back over 7f. |

30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
1-15 in handicaps, with the win on Lingfield AW (AW) last November but he's often been thereabouts, including on turf; bang there on Wolverhampton AW on both outings this term, the latest just three days ago; player. |
9/2 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice, including over C&D; most encouraging when runner-up over C&D four weeks ago on his return from a break and should go close here. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 (12) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Novice winner who doubled his tally by a head over Lingfield's 1m2f in November; could go well off 3lb higher if ready to rock after his break. |
