22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Still a maiden over hurdles after 13 starts but looked set to put that right at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in April, only to fall at the last when mounting his challenge, after a similar break to today's; up 2lb but Paddy Hanlon retains the ride and this 6yo is worth considering. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-12 over hurdles but he ran well to finished second off this mark at Huntingdon (2m3f, soft) in February; this is a deeper race but he's versatile ground-wise and has each-way claims again after a short break. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 3-3 over C&D with two wins for Tom Queally, who's back up today, in June; didn't look to see out 1m4f in better company here last time, when hanging left as usual; this is more his level. |
8/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Revitalised 6yo who is on a hat-trick after two 1m2f course wins in June (good/good to firm); moves up from Class 6 today but this longer trip is probably in his favour and he remains well handicapped on older form. |
7/2 |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning a 0-55 contest by a neck over C&D three weeks ago; 5lb rise puts him on his previous winning mark and although not the easiest of rides, Tom Queally knows him well (2-8 on him); major player. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
His two turf wins last summer came off higher marks, including in an amateurs' handicap; moderate form this year and the blinkers, worn once before when pulled up over fences, are given another try. |

6th 2 (3) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |

He's 2lb lower than when winning at Brighton last August but has struggled to get competitive this year and needs to turn things around. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |

Won twice for Nick Littmoden, including over 1m4f at Brighton (good) last August; low-key form since joining this trainer in May for 6,000gns and has plenty to prove at present. |

11st 1lb |
Reeled off a four-timer in May/June (1m2f-1m4f on ground ranging from good to soft to good to firm); those wins came at Class 6 level and she has been beaten twice in a higher grade since; 12lb higher than when winning this race in 2024; cheekpieces back on for the first time since February. |

Retains plenty of vitality aged eight but completed his May/June four-timer in Class 6 and was soundly beaten when back up in grade last time; current mark leaves him in a difficult spot. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |

Back to form in refitted cheekpieces lately and has been placed on her last three starts; should be thereabouts once again. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 5 (9) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back in form since returned to cheekpieces of late, latterly when beaten a nose by Belle Of Kt at Bath a fortnight ago; 6lb better off with her old rival and her last win came round here off 3lb higher, so there are reasons for optimism. |
8/1 |

2nd 1 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Seven wins at up to 1m4f; yet fully to convince stamina-wise over this far and not very reliable nowadays but gave pretty good account when third in refitted cheekpieces here (11.6f, firm) 16 days ago. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Well handicapped on her two turf wins (1m4f/1m6f) last summer, but she's been out of sorts in last four runs and was beaten 11l at Yarmouth last time; has something to prove and she needs to turn things around. |
25/1 |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 17y Class 6 |

An 8yo who hasn't been at her best of late, on slow and fast ground; however, very capable off this sort of mark if staging a revival. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |

Ran with credit when fourth of nine at Yarmouth (1m6f, soft) last month and does handle testing ground, but looks better on a faster surface; 5lb lower than for the latest of two wins around this time last year and one for the shortlist. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
2-36 with one of his wins coming here (1m2f, good to firm) in August last year, the other at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) in June; placed five times from six starts over C&D this year, but below form on soft the last twice; could do with the ground drying out, but considered if it does. |
13/2 |

15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with an emphatic win in classified event at Lingfield (11.6f) in June; ran to similar level when runner-up over C&D last month but his form has nosedived in last two runs; now drops back in grade but has a bit to prove again and he's a frequent slow starter. |
14/1 |
|
11 (10) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Used to be a notorious slow starter but he's been a bit better in that department since the summer and it was a solid effort in this headgear combination when second of five at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; stayed on from the rear when third in an amateur riders' race over that C&D 12 days later; this is a notch above the standard he regularly contests, though. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Poor, regressive maiden who's barely beaten a rival in half a dozen runs for this yard; the first-time eyshield/blinkers will need to make quite a difference. |

Promise in novice/maiden events for Andrew Balding but he's been well beaten in seven handicaps since, including five for this stable; drops to 5f with a transformation needed; best watched. |
