31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three course wins over 5f/6f; just 2lb above her last winning mark and softening ground wouldn't be a problem, but she needs to do better than in her last two starts. |
8/1 |

9th 1 (5) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well backed and took advantage of a sliding mark when winning an uncompetitive small-field handicap off 3lb lower at Lingfield (turf) in June; always liked it here but this mark is as high as she's ever won off, so there's little margin for error. |
8/1 |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner over 5f/6f here; finished 2l behind stablemate So Smart over C&D eight days ago and meets him on the same terms, but she lost ground at the start when the blindfold was removed late so she may get closer. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
All ground seems to come alike to him and he gained his second C&D success (good to firm) last month, but a 4lb rise appeared to anchor him in his two outings since; may need the returning visor to perk him up a bit. |
5/1 |
|
7th 6 (9) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who was well held at Chepstow last time, but that was a Class 4 event and he won that track (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; remains well treated on his old form and has claims if he can bounce back on this drop back in grade; acts on fast and soft ground. |
5/1 |
|
6th 6 (3) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Exposed but very consistent and deserved to snap a losing streak over C&D recently when racing prominently and keeping on; back up 4lb. |

0-20 and he arrives below par, just fifth of ten in 5f Musselburgh handicap last month; others appeal more. |
9/1 |
|
5th 7 (8) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Remains winless and he has offered very little in a trio of runs this season, last two over C&D; significantly more is required. |
9/1 |
|
6th 5 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
18-race maiden; dropping down the weights but his two runs this year have seen him finish last at Ayr and over C&D; hood replaces a visor today; likely to pop up at some point but stable have more obvious claims with Wee Mary. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
1lb out of the weights, but still 6lb lower than when gaining his sixth course success in this race last year; 0-19 since, but placed nine times and has winning form on soft ground; may be worth chancing. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 10 (6) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Six-time course winner who's been on the downgrade for some time and is on a losing run of 18; remains consistent enough but, like stablemate Marisitta, has a job on with Arnaz on the same terms as last Sunday. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Be An Angel didn't get the best of runs when this gelding was hot on her heels here last month; found wanting in a classified race since then; looks vulnerable. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Regressive maiden who's finished well held in two runs back in 0-50 classified company; would be a surprise winner switching from cheekpieces to a first-time visor. |

|
6th 2 (7) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

18-race maiden; fair fifth after a break over this trip at Chelmsford last time on return to AW; more needed, but could get a place. |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Patchy form since a good debut at Sandown last August but she signed off for Darryll Holland with a solid third at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) seven weeks ago; this is just her fourth handicap and she's far from ruled out on stable debut. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (11) |
4th Aug 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive maiden who didn't look to see out 6f on sole attempt (AW here); too soon to write her off but was below par last time, since when she's been withdrawn once on account of unsuitable (officially good) ground; now tried without the hood for the first time. |

3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; losing run stretches back over two years and he hasn't fired yet this year; dropped 10lb as a result but perhaps not ready to capitalise just yet. |
33/1 |
|
3 (3) |
22nd Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Not run on the AW since 2022 and has regressed on turf in recent times, having been rated a stone higher at the start of last season; well held in three runs round his beloved Chepstow this year. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 5f AW scorer in 2025; has twice failed to build on an encouraging reappearance fifth at Windsor though, soon ridden when fifth of seven in 6f Chepstow handicap last month; lots more is needed. |
9/2 |
|
7 (1) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won over C&D two years ago but hasn't kicked on from an encouraging reappearance and looks vulnerable unless he can buck his ideas up. |
8/1 |

5th 8 (4) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
C&D winner; shaped quite nicely at Windsor on his seasonal return but he failed to build on it at Ffos Las 17 days ago; others appeal more for the win. |
8/1 |
