28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has won three 6f events on AW since August, one here; last run at Pontefract forgiven as he was drawn wide but he was also below par here the time before when behind Mount Ruapehu. |
8/1 |
|
13th 11 (13) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Prominent racer who has won three 6f events on AW since August; not at his best at Southwell last month and he has a wide stall to overcome returned to 5f. |
10/1 |

8th 1 (5) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Enthusiastic front-runner with three 6f wins to his name on AW, including here last October; ran his best race for some time when scoring at Chelmsford three weeks ago but even that will need bettering if he is to overcome a 4lb rise. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won 5f Catterick maiden as a 2yo; has struggled in handicaps for more than a year but the drop to this grade could help and first-time cheekpieces may also assist. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 (7) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Much lower in the weights than when making the frame in her first three starts last year, but that's for a good reason with her form in four outings for this yard since last November decidedly moderate; look elsewhere. |
16/1 |

12th 5 (8) |
16th Jul 2025 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Big prices and well held in three runs for this stable since November; returns from four months off with enough to prove. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 2lb

Has made the frame a few times over C&D, but a record of 1-49 doesn't make him an appealing proposition. |
12/1 |
|
10th 11 (5) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
1-48, the win gained over 5f here in 2023; back from a break with three pretty good efforts this year, the latest a 66-1 fourth at Kempton (6f), but still makes only limited appeal. |
16/1 |
|
4th 11 (8) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Respectable efforts in classified events (5f) in last two runs but it's almost three years since his sole win and others are preferred; one of three runners for the yard. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Still a maiden but there isn't much between him and Arlington on C&D form in October and although he was beaten before the 6f trip became an issue at Chelmsford in February he can't be ruled out on return from a break. |
15/2 |
|
6th 10 |
8th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Maiden; often thereabouts in 5f handicaps on turf and the AW but he has ground to make up on Forever Noah on their recent 5f run here and the return to 6f, for the first time since his debut, raises a big question. |
7/1 |
|
4th 9 (1) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Longstanding maiden but he's been in the first three on 14 occasions; ran respectably in a classified on his return from a break over C&D two weeks ago and holds place claims once again. |

9th 16 (12) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
The winner of five AW handicaps (5f-6f) since September for her new stable; 6lb higher than for the latest of them and others appeal as being better treated. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Had a tremendous spell for new yard between September and January, winning five at 6f (two here) or 5f; her handicap mark has taken a battering but a recent second at Southwell suggests she's not weighted out of it; Ryan Kavanagh 2-2 on her and she can be thereabouts again. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 6 (3) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
She has soared up the weights after a fine winter, including three C&D wins; hasn't had a clear shot at things on her last two starts, including behind a couple of today's rivals here three weeks ago, but she still needs a personal best to defy this mark. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Productive front-runner whose largely consistent record for current yard features four wins, including twice over C&D, and four placed efforts; out of the money last time but may rebound. |
11/2 |
|
6th 8 (4) |
9th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
He has made giant strides for this yard, winning four handicaps since August (two over C&D); solid efforts in defeat on his last two starts but Alondra scooted past him here 24 days ago and he will need to raise his game a level to resume winning ways. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
13th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner who brings good stats, being 4-9 for current yard and 2-4 over C&D; set a fast pace but nearly made all at Lingfield most recently; remains in form and enters calculations. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins over C&D but well below best in recent starts, including on Wolverhampton AW last week (tongue-tie added) where he's gone close in the past; return to form badly needed. |
14/1 |
|
9th 10 (5) |
19th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins have come over 5f at Chelmsford, the latest in a classified event in February; well beaten on his last four starts, however, and hopes appear to rest on the addition of a tongue-tie perking him up; betting useful. |
12/1 |
|
7th 6 (5) |
6th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two AW wins at 5f but he never set foot on turf until down the field in a Leicester classified on penultimate start and he didn't shine when returned to the AW at Southwell in June; has something to prove. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
3-14 on the AW for Simon Dow and 0-7 on turf; may need this first start for her new trainer after 256 days off and is probably better over a bit further now. |
8/1 |
|
7 (4) |
15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
All three wins have been on AW and latest was at Lingfield (5f) in June; that was a brave success but she's been up and down since and was disappointing in classified event at Chelmsford last time; still lightly raced on turf but this is competitive back in a handicap and others are more solid. |
14/1 |
|
8 (8) |
30th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Course winner at 6f, also successful over 5f on Lingfield AW in June; mixed since but she was in better form when runner-up returned to that C&D last week and can be on the premises back in a classified. |
