23rd Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) and Brighton (7f, good to firm) this summer then runner-up at Brighton (7f, good) when bidding for a hat-trick; he's back into a bigger field today but ran well in such a scenario at Ascot in May and this in-form contender might have a part to play. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |

Reliable 5yo who was too strong for Dion Baker here last month and now bids for a hat-trick off 4lb higher; solid chance. |

9st 4lb |
Fairly reliable 5yo who kept on well for narrow success at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; subsequent 2lb rise is manageable and this longer trip also suits; probably won't be far away. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Second in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 4lb lower; three wins this year, the latest a runaway success at Brighton last month, but his progress has stalled on his last two starts; needs to raise his game again. |

19th 16 (7) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Can miss the break and is usually ridden from off the pace; back-to-back wins over the extended 5f at Brighton this summer, the latter by a wide margin under Jude Fernandes this month; below-form third turned out under a penalty at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) four days later and another 4lb higher now. |

Can miss the break and is usually ridden from off the pace; won a Brighton handicap (5.3f) by a wide margin on Tuesday for Jude Fernandes; that made it three wins from his last four starts and he is a leading player under his penalty. |

Can lead; the most recent of her seven wins came on the AW at Lingfield last November and she's finished runner-up three times this year, including when 1l behind a subsequent winner three weeks ago; can go well. |

Six-time turf winner; placed a few times since returned to that sphere; only 1-16 on AW but gained the success over C&D (off 3lb higher); in form and has a fighting chance. |

Has had two AW wins, including one over C&D, and added a Hamilton success (6f, good to soft) in August but he failed to beat a rival in the Ayr Bronze Cup (6f, soft); needs to bounce back from that. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

A fair 6f winner at Wolverhampton this spring for Jack Morland; not discredited for his new handler with third of 11 in 7f claimer at Carlisle two days ago; no forlorn hope. |

6th 1 (6) |

Dual Tapeta winner who won at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) for Jack Morland in April and was a close third there last month; now returns to turf for new yard but he ran some good races last summer including a close second at Doncaster (7f, good to soft); respected back in this sphere. |

Sole win from 12 starts came in C&D maiden in May and she took her AW record to 22312 when a 4l second of nine at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 19 days ago; can go well. |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Hasn't always enjoyed the rub of the green in four turf handicaps, but hasn't been disgraced; interesting back on the AW (record 2231) and worth a second look. |

5th 4 (2) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made winning reappearance in a 6f fillies' maiden at Chelmsford in May; better form in handicaps on next two starts and when below par at Windsor last time it was a Class 5; could resume her progress back down in grade. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Conditions are no problem but he's on a long losing streak and has not made an impact in four runs for current yard; continues to drop down the weights but he's now 1-34 on turf and others are preferred. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Following a two-month break he returned to form and landed a gamble in reapplied cheekpieces (retained) at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last Thursday; he's never finished better than seventh on turf and the surface switch is a concern, but he'll be tough to beat if reproducing anything like his latest form. |

Both wins have been over 6f at Kempton when trained by Heather Main; yet to build on his debut for this yard but is now down to a career-low mark; steps back up in trip and cheekpieces return (worn once previously). |

Well handicapped and although he is now 0-19 for this yard, he has run several good races in defeat; latest Wolverhampton second was one of them and he is more appealing than many. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Over two years since her last win but it came over C&D and off a 4lb higher mark; hit and miss in 2026 and others have more appealing claims. |

7th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Veteran who popped up in a Class 5 at Newbury in June (6f, good to soft); hasn't matched that in three runs since and although he's often run well here, he's yet to win at the track; minor money perhaps his best hope. |

4th 1 (2) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |

Understandably not the force of old now a 10yo but he registered the ninth win of his long career when beating ten rivals at Newbury (6f, good to firm) in June; held in a couple of Class 4 events since but he's won here in the past and is not ruled out on this drop back in grade. |
