26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Four wins last year including one over hurdles and two over this trip on the Flat; just 2lb above his last winning mark, but needs to put a tame effort at Nottingham (1m6f, good) last month behind him. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
An excellent Flat campaign last year yielded three turf wins under Rose Dawes from May to October and he's been in AW/hurdles action this winter; absent 11 weeks but has to be considered seriously. |

Both hurdle wins have been here, the latest over this trip last April (good; off 3lb lower); three Flat wins since, including on soft ground; should go well. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
0-2 on AW; won soft-ground maiden in France for David Menuisier last August and placed in Doncaster handicap (1m4f) the following month; weakened on stable debut at Windsor (1m2f) in April and didn't fare that much better over 11.4f there (good to firm) last time; handicapper is relenting, though. |

Won soft-ground maiden in France for David Menuisier last August and placed in Doncaster handicap (1m4f, good to soft) the following month; had tough assignments in Listed events in next two starts but she returned to calmer waters with ninth of ten on stable debut here (1m2f, good to firm) last month; may have needed that run but she's now 1-12 and others are more convincing. |

Six-time winner but only one of those came in a double-figure field (October 2022); ran well at Newmarket when last seen eight months ago; has gone well fresh in the past; others appeal more all the same. |

25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Beat three rivals over 1m4f here in July since when he's been comfortably held; on the plus side, he might appreciate this belated return to 1m6f as he does have form over this far. |

10st 0lb |
Won at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last spring but he's struggled in his last eight starts including over hurdles in last two runs; now 10lb lower than for his last success but he needs a big turnaround for new yard (has changed hands and left Mike Smith); hood removed and cheekpieces return. |

9th 3 |
2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |

Two Flat wins but form went the wrong way in that code from last August onwards and he was pulled up at 150-1 on hurdle debut four weeks ago. |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Dual Flat winner; fairly useful at his best (1m-1m3f) but his form for Mike Smith since last summer has been disappointing, and the soft ground is a big worry on this hurdle debut; cheekpieces removed. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice over about 1m4f (AW/good to firm) last spring and he's thrown in judged on that form; twice close up on AW in January and a respectable third at Bath (2m) in April, before Ascot 2m race last week proved too tough; there's a rethink on trip today and cheekpieces (last used in June 2024) return. |
20/1 |

7th 10 (6) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Three wins on turf (good/good to firm) at up to 11.5f; also went fairly close at this trip on AW in January; respectable third at Bath (2m1f, good to firm; Lusaka second) on return from two-month break last time; might build on that. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 (3) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Triple turf winner who finished well to go close off this mark at Kempton (2m, AW) in January; flopped with a heavy defeat at Newcastle the following month but that was a Class 3 and has claims if he can bounce back after a short break; has form on good to firm and good to soft. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner whose losing run is up to 17 but he had dropped 14lb below his last winning mark when beaten less than a length into third of seven here four weeks ago; respected if building on that. |

3rd 4 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner who is versatile ground-wise; well handicapped on best form last season but he was out of sorts in the autumn and needs a major revival after six months off. |

9st 9lb |
1-12 on turf; returned to form when second at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) in September then went back-to-back at Kempton (1m3f, AW) on next two starts; slowly run series final didn't work out next time; not discounted on this comeback. |

13th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

Inconsistent but snapped losing sequence when winning at Salisbury (good to firm) in July; below form next two starts but close to career best when second at Doncaster (also 1m2f, good to soft) ten days ago; has run well here before and in calculations from the same mark (2lb well in). |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |

Progressive 4yo who has won three times this season (1m2f-1m4f, good to firm/good) and again ran well when third of five at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; there's every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Respectable fourth in the Great Metropolitan on last year's card; one win last year but it did come here in July and he was a respectable second at this track (also 1m2f, good to soft; has won on good) in September; below par over 1m on his final start in October and this trip again asks a question; market might help ahead of his comeback. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |

10st 7lb |
Not at best on the Flat this year but won off much reduced mark in first-time cheekpieces at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm; RPR 80) in July; goes without headgear on this hurdling debut but has the raw ability to pose a threat if she takes to this game. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |

C&D winner in 2023 on sole course start; has her good and ordinary days, once refusing to race, but first-time cheekpieces seemed to spur her on when a wide-margin winner at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) 16 days ago; back up 7lb but still well treated on past exploits. |
100/30 |

6 (9) |
10th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

On a handy mark but isn't particularly solid on her form for current stable; chance largely depends on how well she responds to first-time headgear. |

Won a Windsor handicap (11.5f) last May, but he's generally struggled since, including never involved in two 1m course handicaps in recent weeks; this trip is more suitable but would need to see market support to consider. |

Won on turf in the spring and was creditable second of 14 here (1m3f) in first-time blinkers in June; clearly wasn't himself when struggling here last month, after a break, and has a big role to play if back on song in first-time visor. |

Made the running last three starts, easily best of which was her breakthrough win here (1m4f classified) in January; reportedly bled when 5-6 three days later and refused to enter the stalls at Kempton (28-1) 13 days ago; not proven beyond 1m4f (two attempts at 2m) and other options look more solid. |

Could put the pace to the race; breakthrough win at Wolverhampton in January (1m4f) came out of the blue, for all she was dropping into a classified for the first time; bombed out (though reportedly bled) when carrying 5lb penalty in handicap under same conditions just three days later; rather watch. |

Ex-Irish 5yo who got off the mark at the 20th attempt when making all in a C&D classified event on Friday; has a penalty back in a handicap but that was a dominant display and she's still unexposed at this trip; key player. |
