16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Has won on good to soft but her latest three wins, at about 1m, came on good to firm; on a highish mark now but off since September and past evidence suggests she'll come on for the run. |
14/1 |

2 (11) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Handles most ground and she's tactically versatile; has been generally reliable this season and she won in a tight finish at Windsor (1m) in August before a creditable third at York (1m1f) last month; still looks on a workable mark and she's respected with cheekpieces reapplied. |
11/2 |

7th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
It was a deep handicap she contested at Goodwood and in solid form otherwise, winning for a fourth time by a short-head at Windsor 24 days ago (1m, good to firm); clear claims off 2lb higher if in similar form here. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Has a patchy profile but he got back near best with a strong-finishing success in a Class 2 handicap at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month; that was in a bunch finish but he's only 2lb higher and is a big player if he can repeat that form. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Acts on soft; unproven beyond 1m and unraced beyond 1m1f until he tried 1m3f at Southwell (AW) 15 days ago and led 2f out until three rivals went past in the final 1f; that was a good run and his dam won at this trip but others clearly have less to prove in this hot 1m4f race. |
25/1 |
|
4th 11 (5) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Just 2lb higher than when winning over 7f here in April, but is unraced beyond 1m1f and this looks a tough race in which to prove his stamina. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (1) |
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. |

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. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Both wins were at 1m2f in 2024; good third off a reduced mark at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month but he was only fourth of six over C&D last time; that took his overall record to 2-32 and others are preferred. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
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. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Last four wins over 1m at Pontefract but he has placed on all three course visits and he arrives on the back of a respectable fourth at Redcar (1m, good) last weekend; has won on good to soft; enters calculations. |
10/1 |
|
4th 9 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time winner at Pontefract where he was competitive last month; for whatever reason he never gave his running last week at Thirsk. |
12/1 |
|
9th 12 (7) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Four-time winner at Pontefract where he's been bang there in his last two races; his only other win was over this C&D so looks a player. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins have come at Kempton (7f, Polytrack), but has also won four times on Tapeta including here; latest effort back at Kempton can be excused and he is respected from just 1lb above his last winning mark. |
10/1 |
|
7th 4 (4) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-time AW winner and the latest three have been over C&D; has mixed record for new trainer this season but he was runner-up at Southwell last time and remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for his win here in May; key player. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Seven-time AW winner who has four wins and a second to his name in five starts in 7f Tapeta handicaps; the drop back from 1m and switch from turf both look in his favour off his last winning mark. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
His win in July took C&D record to 3-4 (good to soft and good to firm); had a very awkward start here since and was soon tailed off (stablemate Cherry Cobbler was second) but, given his fine strike-rate here, he can't easily be left out. |
10/1 |
|
9th 6 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All four turf wins have been gained on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in his first two runs this season but he returned to form when beating Jumby over C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago; only 2lb higher here and has leading claims if he can back that up. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins on turf have been achieved on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in two comeback outings in recent months but eased 3lb and capable of bouncing back to form to a form with a bang. |
9/2 |
