6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Ran respectably in Group 3 events the last twice; creditable second in this race two years ago but faces a difficult task on ratings today and has never won above Listed level. |
25/1 |

3rd 2 (1) |
16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
7yo who's been lightly raced in recent years; won one Listed race last May (made all) and another at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm) this July before his respectable, front-running third of five in Group 3 at Goodwood two weeks ago; there's a stamina query (after two attempts at 1m6f in 2022) and he may well need to show his best form for nearly two years. |
7/2 |

3rd 4 (1) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
7yo who's been lightly raced in recent years; has never raced on soft and not seen on good to soft since he was a bit below his best in this race in 2023; won one Listed race last May (made all) and another four weeks ago but he probably needs to return to 2023 form if he's to be competitive today. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Placed in five 1m2f-1m4f Listed races this season and beaten a neck in 1m4f Group 3 here two weeks ago; 0-11 since her handicap win but she's likely to be on the premises once again. |
7/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Placed in five Listed races this season and can give another good account, but she's 0-10 since winning a handicap last July and it's likely this 5yo is vulnerable once more, especially now back up in grade. |

21st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
0-9 since handicap win here last July; seven of those defeats were in Listed races but runner-up in five, including in this race last year and on three occasions this season, so has each-way claims again. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who easily won a handicap at Southwell (1m4f, AW) in December and didn't run badly when last of seven at 150-1 in Group 3 Aston Park at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) last month; however, he faces another tough task in this Listed event and is best watched. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Slow starts have become an unwelcome habit but he caught the eye keeping on for fifth of 13 behind King's Code over C&D in January, when denied a clear run; last of three at Lingfield since in a race that wasn't run to suit; each-way claims if getting the breaks. |
9/1 |

3rd 2 (1) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Smart at his peak on AW but slow starts have become an unwelcome habit and he's been operating below his very best in AW handicaps this winter; would need to bounce back to his peak form to trouble an on-song Survie. |
5/1 |

5th 2 (14) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Does well on the AW and was never ideally positioned in a steadily run race over C&D two months ago; slow breaks have become an unwelcome habit but capable of being in the shake-up granted a solid pace to chase; Alfie Redman takes off a useful 7lb. |

2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Winner at Market Rasen in June (2m5f, good; first-time hood; three ran); hasn't run as well since, having been pulled up at Newbury on latest chase run and then tailed off on the AW; bit to prove. |
9/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Fairly useful chaser who is 5-17 in that sphere, but he was a big price on Flat debut at Goodwood (1m6f maiden) two weeks ago and finished a well-held fourth of seven; that wasn't bad after a slow start but this is a daunting task in this Listed event and he has stacks to find on the figures. |
