28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won two of his first four starts but his losing run is up to 15 and he was short of his best in three runs early in the year; sold for 5,000gns in February and new yard quick to get him back sprinting; worth a market check off his reduced mark. |

11th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual 5f turf winner; would have each-way claims if able to reproduce his Newcastle effort from three starts ago but has taken a couple of backward steps since. |
9/2 |

2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Both wins over 5f, on good to firm and soft; on a good mark now and he has run creditably over 6f but might prefer an easier test at the trip than this, especially with the ground having eased. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Popped up from nowhere when winning in a first-time tongue-tie over C&D (soft) nine days ago; well drawn as it turned out that day and recent history suggests he's no certainty to repeat the effort, back up 4lb and into a better race. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On a long losing run and he went too freely in first-time cheekpieces for his new yard when a below-par fourth of eight in 5f Lingfield handicap 18 days ago; tongue tied now with more required. |
14/1 |
|
4th 7 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All four wins when trained by Philip McBride, the last of which was in September 2024; sold for 6,000gns to join new yard in February; unseated when rearing at the start on stable debut; first-time cheekpieces go on and he's best watched. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All five wins have been on turf, rattling up a three-timer in October 2024; it's been downhill since and while cheekpieces replace usual blinkers, he makes little appeal here. |
25/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished second here just before Christmas but over 6f; struggled since, including over C&D latest; Sedgemoor is the more obvious of the stable pair. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Five-time AW winner who was getting off the mark on turf at the 16th attempt when successful at Nottingham (6f, good) eight days ago; however, he was well beaten over this C&D (soft) yesterday. |
4/1 |
|
8th 8 (1) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Five-time AW winner who belatedly opened his account on turf when coming from off the pace to win at Nottingham (6f, good) a week ago; has form on ground slower than good and has to be respected under a 4lb penalty. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form on AW this year and he carried on the good work back on turf when finishing second of nine at Nottingham 12 days ago (6f, good); the return to 7f looks a positive and he looks a strong contender. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (11) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice on the AW over 7f in February and has gone close on his last two starts, including over this trip 28 days ago; has form on turf and this prominent-racer has claims. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice over 7f (including on Polytrack) in February and he went close off this mark at Southwell last Tuesday; usually races prominently and he's strongly respected on this drop back in trip. |

18th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (1) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper. |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing. |

29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Habitual slow starter who has one win from 33 starts; beaten a neck at Lingfield (5f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month but he's failed to beat a rival home in two outings since; others preferred. |
18/1 |
|
8th 7 (8) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Not one to rely on and she was very slowly away when last of 12 in 5f Southwell handicap 17 days ago; she's very hard to make a case for. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Huge chance on this year's best form, notably a C&D second off 7lb higher in February; refused to race at Yarmouth on her penultimate start though and that, allied to a modest effort at Chelmsford two weeks ago, leaves her with too much to prove for comfort. |
7/1 |
