Excels here and ran another good race at the track when a closing third behind Under The Twilight, having got behind; a faster pace today would play to his strengths; no ground concerns. |

3rd 6 (4) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
9yo who's an eight-time Windsor winner, including this May and June; beat Amazonian Dream in the latter race and runner-up to him here next time, before not disgraced on a first crack at Brighton; reliable sort from off the pace and he has each-way claims again. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Eight-time Windsor winner, including twice of late, who's having a first run round here; ultra-consistent, especially considering his age and that he's usually dropped in, but there's little room for manoeuvre off this mark; yard also responsible for Duskaura. |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Back in much better form, having won a Lingfield classified event (6f, good) in clearcut fashion last month then finished a neck second in Bath handicap (5f, firm) last week; enters calculations despite still having a modest strike-rate. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; well beaten here in handicaps in May and June; produced her best effort for over a year when winning going away in a Lingfield classified event (6f, good) latest; well treated on her return to this sphere if repeating that effort but it's hard to predict if she will. |

Sole win from 29 starts was at Bath (5f, good to firm) in August 2024; ran respectably in a classified event there (5.7f) two weeks ago but this looks tough on the figures and others are preferred. |

Took advantage of a good opportunity over C&D last month but came up short off higher marks twice since; conditions will be fine but others are more appealing. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Beat a next-time-out winner when scoring at Ffos Las last month and probably didn't have an ideal track position when fourth at Sandown (also 5f, soft) on Friday; respected if she makes a quick reappearance here. |
5/1 |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 4lb higher mark; first success since when beating four rivals at Ffos Las two weeks ago (5f, soft); this is deeper but a 2lb rise is manageable; more appealing than most. |

13th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Hard to predict and was well held at Salisbury last time but he looks interesting on his third in a Newbury handicap (6f, good to firm) in June; has claims if he can recapture that form and his last win was at this track. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Authoritative win over C&D on first start for Chris Gordon last May and plenty went wrong when bidding to win that race again two starts ago (surely would have been heavily involved with a clear run); beaten into second at even-money on AW next time but the winner rather stole it; shortlisted. |

2nd 2 (3) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Nothing wrong with his C&D second a month ago and was unlucky back on turf last time (same Bath handicap he won last season), when hitting plenty of traffic; will rightly be popular. |
3/1 |
|
6th 2 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won this race (firm) last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Kempton in the autumn; has remained in good form on AW this year and he chased home an improver at Lingfield (6f) last month; should get a good pace back on turf and he's a big player back at this track. |

His C&D win last October came off a 16lb higher mark so his ability for a race of this nature isn't in doubt; he hasn't been firing in recent starts though, including when well supported. |

9st 5lb |
Runner-up in two maidens (6f/5.6f) last summer but her form has gone in the wrong direction in handicaps; had an excuse when upped to 1m at Bath last Saturday but she's now 0-9 and needs a transformation back in trip. |

Minor form over a variety of trips, including this one, since leaving France and the slender evidence available suggests sprint trips might be more suitable than today's; has it to prove on yard debut. |

4th 10 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Only 3l behind Time For Sandals over C&D last summer; had just one AW run since, when failing to reward strong market support over C&D in April (finished third off an 11lb higher mark); subsequent turf efforts easy enough to forgive and he makes his stable debut (same owners) off a tempting mark; could be an AW specialist and he's of some interest. |

Won this last year, one of three C&D victories, for Charlie Tucker off a 2lb higher mark in a small field; yard enjoying a better spell of late and this may have been the plan but he doesn't arrive in the same form as last year; the years might be catching up. |

Nine-race maiden but he ran some good races last season, including a third at Windsor (1m, good to firm) and a second at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW); looks interesting on that form and he had an excuse when dropped to 6f on Windsor reappearance last month; now has another crack at 7f but he's well handicapped if he can bounce back near best. |
