31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Multiple winner, including here; quiet this season but it was the same last campaign before he won on his third outing; handy mark. |
20/1 |

17th 1 (13) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Eight-time winner, including twice over C&D; shaped as if retaining ability when eighth of ten at Nottingham (40-1) on return but may need another run to put him spot-on. |
20/1 |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |

Eight-time winner but reappearance record suggests he's probably best watched on this seasonal debut, unless the market speaks positively. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent front-runner but was close up behind Vantheman at Hamilton and this flatter track could suit better; respected. |
12/1 |
|
5th 9 (11) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Inconsistent front-runner who's given a third try in a tongue-tie following a below-par effort back on turf last time (made much of the running from the rail draw at Musselburgh); on a competitive mark if he's on a going day though. |
10/1 |
|
6th 5 (13) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent last year but won twice (5f, good), including over C&D, and he returned to form with a near-miss at Newcastle (5f, AW) last month; major player if he's once more on a going day. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Just one win to his name but runner-up in a big field at the Dante meeting here and again found only one too good at Southwell in September; however, both those runs were over 5f, he hasn't looked as effective at this trip and he never looked like getting involved over 5f here on Friday. |
25/1 |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Ran a cracker to finish second of 22 in a hot 3yo C&D handicap at the Dante meeting; unable to build on that since but he returned to form when second at Southwell 17 days ago; that was a drop in class and a 2lb rise back up in grade could find him out. |
10/1 |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Started the campaign in good form, notably when second of 22 at the Dante meeting at York (5f, good to firm); his progress has stalled more recently though and hopes rest on the drop into Class 4 company perking him up. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
5lb lower than last winning mark and came close to taking advantage when finding only Vantheman too strong at Hamilton (5f, good) last week; meets that rival on 5lb better terms; should be involved in the shake-up once more. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 11 (8) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner who boasts a good record at this time of year; will always be reliant on some luck given his hold-up style, which he hasn't had this year; on a handy mark when things do fall his way again, though, and is one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
5th 7 (10) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Trouble in running on both AW starts last month and same story at Pontefract last time, in the circumstances doing well to finish eighth of 13 from 4lb out of the handicap; he has a good record at Pontefract but could play a leading role off his proper mark today if getting the breaks. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't had many chances on AW but he looked good over C&D last spring and he picked up smartly to beat eight rivals at Chelmsford last month; this is a higher grade but a 4lb rise is fair enough and he still has a bit of potential. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Southwell Tapeta winner who is now 1lb lower than when successful at Haydock (5f, good) last summer, but probably needs a bit more than in his recent efforts now switched to Polytrack; stable triple-handed. |
11/2 |
|
4 (9) |
24th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Couple of fourth-place finishes since wearing cheekpieces; scored comfortably off this mark at Haydock last July and a return to that peak form would give him major claims. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has only managed to win two of his last 31 starts, though he got it right when recording his second C&D success last month (four of these behind); had excuses back here last time (blindfold removed late) and he's a big player if things pan out right this time. |
4/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has eight wins but has become hard to win with for current yard this year, making the frame seven times without success; well-handicapped if he can just turn the corner. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
One of his two wins came over C&D and was a close fifth here a month ago, backing up two good runs on the AW; possibilities, especially should the new cheekpieces give him a lift. |
10/1 |
|
5th 9 (7) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Beat Equity Law over C&D last June but the tables were turned when the pair repposed here in August; two solid efforts on AW in March; should give his running. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
He was returning from a 167-day break when third over C&D two weeks ago; Billy Loughnane retains the ride and he is one to take seriously. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Confirmed trailblazer who has won 13 races in his career (six on AW), but has finished out of the frame in all six starts over C&D; blinkers go on for the first time on his 86th start; others preferred. |
11/1 |
|
8 (5) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
One of the faster sprinters in training and he belatedly got off the mark for the year with a front-running win at Wolverhampton 17 days ago; 6lb rise against stronger opposition could find him out. |
8/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Trailblazing sprinter who got no peace up front when beaten favourite in a Racing League handicap last time; ran a stormer the time before at Haydock and should give it a good shot from stall 3; has form here. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Prevailed in reapplied hood at Southwell (6f) last time, taking AW record to 4-13; needs to prove he can transfer the form back to turf; only 1-10 in this sphere and is 7lb higher than last attempt. |
10/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Narrowly came out on top when winning here over 5f last month before finishing a close third at Lingfield (5f, AW) next time, and shaped as if still in form in a race not run to suit back there ten days ago; step back up to 6f looks worth a try; hood back on. |
