29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Four-time winner, most recently in November 2024 at Newmarket (1m1f, good) off a 14lb higher mark than today's; has attracted support since joining this yard and was a close third in a classified event at Wolverhampton 65 days ago; steps back into handicaps with claims. |

23rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Scored four times on turf in 2024; on the decline since and 0-13 on AW but he was well backed when a creditable fourth in a C&D classified event ten days ago when just behind Dash Power; big player if he can build on that. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual 6f winner (once here) last summer; also suited by 7f but we haven't seen him since a disappointing AW run in September and he probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark. |
12/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Dual Polytrack winner who boasts a patchy record round here; has enjoyed a good spell of late under Charlie Tucker but whether he's up to winning on Tapeta off his revised mark is the question. |
6/1 |
|
6 (5) |
2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Thoroughly at home on this track, with three of his last four wins over C&D (good to soft and good) and the latest a fortnight ago, the day after a Windsor success; has won off higher marks than today's and his apprentice rider Charlie Tucker gets a sweet tune out of him; hat-trick is on the cards. |

Won two of his last three starts, picking up well to land an apprentice handicap over C&D last week; unpenalised and looks to have plenty in his favour. |

26th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up on reappearance at Bath (1m, good) last month then won over C&D (good to firm) before a good second at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm); arrives at the top of his game and he's a strong contender. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Off the mark at the 17th attempt when making all at Leicester 12 days ago (1m2f, good to firm); up 5lb but the latest run was his first at the trip and he may be able to build on it. |
5/2 |
|
1st 12 (9) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
On reduced mark and he returned from a break with a good second behind an improver at Bath (1m, good) three weeks ago; has claims if he can back that up but he's still a maiden 16 starts and has stamina to prove at this new trip. |

4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
He made a winning handicap debut in June 2024 (7f, good); mixed record since and his Brighton second last September was the only real bright spot in 2025; chance if returning at that level but it is not assured. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (12) |
15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Sole win was 15 months ago but that was off 7lb higher and he returned to form with a near-miss over C&D last time; has leading claims if he can back that up but best form has been on good/good to firm and it would be a worry if the ground is testing. |
13/2 |

1st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Began this season with two disappointing efforts but his fourths at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) and Goodwood (1m1f, good) last month were very respectable; drops in grade and features prominently in calculations. |

22nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
All of his seven wins have been over shorter trips but he produced a strong finish when a 2l second over C&D (good) 18 days ago; on unchanged mark and has possibilities if he can find some extra spark. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Seven wins, all on good to firm over 6f and 7f; record over 1m is less compelling and he was never in the hunt over C&D on last month's reappearance; minor money perhaps his best hope. |
10/1 |

9th 1 (6) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often came to hand early in the past but is getting on now and has never won first time out; carries a big weight, ideally suited by an easy 7f and today's stiff 1m doesn't appeal as optimal. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta), though he has been placed three times from eight starts over this C&D; a losing run of 38 isn't ideal, though; blinkers return. |

|
5th 7 (11) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All wins have come over 6f here, though he has gone close over this trip at Southwell; fair fourth of nine here (6f) a fortnight ago, but a record of 3-82 does suggest a degree of caution. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Exposed 18-race maiden; usually runs at 7f or 1m and was below par on her only run at 1m2f. |
50/1 |
|
8th 10 (5) |
1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Longstanding maiden who's been tried over various trips and in two forms of headgear; one of her better efforts last time but she was probably flattered from the front round Lingfield. |
25/1 |
|
10 (10) |
13th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
16-race maiden; placed at Salisbury (1m; 50-1) on penultimate start but not in the same league as the convincing winner; returns to AW for first time since last October; poorly drawn so safer to focus elsewhere. |
