28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Just the one win to his name from 18 attempts but it came off this mark; poor run at Epsom two weeks ago but that was 6f and today's trip should be more suitable; the addition of blinkers could give him the necessary lift. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Went close off slightly higher marks on consecutive starts in May (6f/5f) and comes here after two respectable 5f thirds at Lingfield (AW/turf) last month; no surprise if he features. |
7/1 |

3rd 6 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Just 1-16 but his win was over C&D (good) last summer; has been up and down this season but he had a near-miss at Goodwood in May and was a fair third on AW here last time; usually races prominently and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid. |

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. |

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 |

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. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Regularly performed well since her Bath win in May; not got much in hand of this mark but still likely to be on the premises. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Four 5f turf wins for this yard in 2025 and in good form this summer, doing well to get as close as she did from the widest draw at Chester two starts ago; however, she's 0-5 on the AW and it may be significant that she hasn't run on sand since March 2025. |
7/2 |

3rd 5 (2) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |

In a good run of form and did well to threaten from the widest stall at Chester last time (5f, good); player. |

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 |

Exposed but very consistent and deserved to snap a losing streak over C&D recently when racing prominently and keeping on; back up 4lb. |

A 5f AW winner when trained in UK; well beaten in four runs for this yard and has to do much better. |
25/1 |

13th 10 (21) |
28th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 25y |
9st 6lb |
5f AW winner in Britain in August 2024; failed to fire in 2025 and hasn't looked a winner in waiting in three runs for this stable; dropped 6lb for heavy defeat at Gowran latest (1m, gd-yld); can only watch down in trip. |
25/1 |
|
13th 6 (18) |
20th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Achieved a peak rating of 70 in 2024 based on consistent form over sprint trips at Chelmsford; regressive last season; has failed to beat a single rival in two Dundalk races; tackles this trio for the first time with a lot to prove. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to make all but has become tactically versatile; all four wins have been at Chelmsford where he ran well from a wide draw 11 days ago; 0-6 on the AW here but three times a runner-up and much respected from stall 1. |
11/4 |
|
5th 9 (9) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has been a trailblazer in the past, but showed he didn't have to lead when successful off this mark on his reappearance over C&D in May (all four wins here); should appreciate the return to this venue following three lesser efforts on turf and one for the shortlist despite the outside stall. |
