9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Holds his form well and wasn't beaten far into fifth of 13 here (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago (Nakaaha 3l behind in sixth); has won twice over this trip, but a suspicion that 7f suits him best. |
10/1 |

5th 1 (13) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Holds his form well despite a busy schedule and appeared to appreciate the drop in trip when beaten half a length into second of 22 at York (7f, good) last time; up 2lb but this is a slightly weaker race; respected. |
7/1 |

2nd 17 (2) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Drew a blank last year but came down the weights, won over 7f on AW in February and competitive over 1m in two recent outings; case can be made but others have a bit less to prove in this big-field scenario. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
0-13 since winning his first two career starts on Polytrack, but capable of useful form as when third of 14 in the London Mile Series Final at Kempton (1m, Polytrack; first-time cheekpieces) 15 days ago; has run well on Tapeta at Newcastle and a player off the same mark as last time. |
9/2 |
|
12 (8) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Career commenced with two wins; 0-12 since but close third in qualifier last time sets him up nicely for a crack at this final and first-time cheekpieces may have a boosting effect; in the mix. |
8/1 |
|

20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
On a long losing sequence and he arrives below par, having been tried in a hood (now discarded) when seventh of ten in 1m Ascot handicap last month; handily weighted if he gets back on song though. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Already a three-time scorer (around 1m) in 2025 and he comes here on the back of a very good second of 13 in 1m Newcastle handicap; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 5 (12) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Career win number eight when prevailing narrowly in a Class 4 at Beverley (extended 1m) and tends to find Class 2s too tough these days, so excused his Doncaster run; only 1-17 on the AW but could be a factor. |
14/1 |
|
10th 12 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Tough sort but has done his winning this year in Class 4, including at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) last time when taking record to 8-55; faces a tougher task back up two grades. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins at 1m2f in 2024 but he has run well over this C&D and, after a slow start to the year, he showed more when a close third of eight at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last week; on the premises again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (4) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Placed in three of his four starts here, including when third in this race last year; after a poor start to this term he showed more three weeks ago and has dropped 4lb since; not ruled out despite the losing run racking up. |
7/1 |
|
9th 9 (15) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Second in this two years ago and often ran well last season; on a competitive mark on his best form but beaten on his last 20 starts and he's struggled on both outings this term. |

6th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Record of 7-20 on AW and 2-3 since wearing visor; midfield in notable handicap at Lingfield (1m2f) most recently, shaping as if this return to further is worth exploring; could go well in the retained headgear. |
6/1 |
|
5th 5 (10) |
17th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
2-2 since visored, following a 1m2f Chelmsford win with a ready success at Wolverhampton last month (9.5f); up 4lb and drawn widest so she will need to produce another personal best to complete her hat-trick. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Five-time AW winner who looks a solid contender, having shown herself back in better form with third-place finishes off current mark at Southwell (1m) in last three outings; should be thereabouts again. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has seven AW wins to his name, the latest at Kempton (7f) in May, but he's 0-14 on turf; solid fourth in this race last year, however, and latest sixth of 14 (1m, AW; hampered) suggests he can play a part again. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Seven AW wins, the latest on his seasonal return last month when getting the better of I'm Working On It (7f); midfield on turf latest; returning to AW is in his favour but all his wins have come at 7f (0-10 at 1m+) and he could prove vulnerable to stronger stayers today. |
9/1 |
|
8th 11 (16) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Went very close in this last year (good) and, having ended 2025 with a win at Kempton (7f, AW), he reappeared with another there (7f) last month; he can be bang there if handling conditions (unproven on slow ground). |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D winner (good to firm) off 6lb lower last July but fourth was the best placing she achieved in five AW handicaps earlier this year; off 11 weeks; others make more obvious appeal. |
25/1 |
|
9th 5 (11) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
4lb higher than her last winning mark but Jack Callan's claim will help in that respect and it was a good run last time at Wolverhampton (finished upside Exquisitive Acclaim) given she was never ideally positioned out the back; could go well provided stall 11 isn't a killer. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (13) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Latest win was C&D in October and she twice went close in November; ran respectably on next four starts but no show when favourite in the Southwell race won by Dosman on latest; cheekpieces (worn last three outings) are removed. |

15th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kicked off this campaign with two wins in a row (7f, good to soft/AW) before solid second at Newmarket (1m, good); didn't run badly in mid-division in Class 2 at Epsom (8.5f, good to soft) last time and he could be in the mix back down in grade. |
3/1 |
|
9th 17 (16) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Acts on soft ground; better than ever this season, winning at Doncaster (good to soft) and following up at Southwell (again 7f, AW); solid second to Sterling Knight (1m, good) last time but he'll need more from the same mark. |
