27th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Snapped a losing run when getting up on the line over C&D last week (soft); no good thing to defy a 4lb penalty but should give his running. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (2) |
21st Sep 2026 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
On a losing run but consistent in the main; placed in C&D classified (good to soft) last month and copes pretty well with soft/heavy ground; probably won't be far away. |

Multiple winner over 7f-1m, including on soft; made the frame over C&D last month but losing run is mounting up and has performed poorly the last twice. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Plenty of defeats at short prices this year to go with two wins, including her last five on the spin at 3-1 or under; handicapper cuts her no slack either, thanks to her consistency, but she's more likely than most to give her running. |
11/2 |

2nd 1 (6) |
27th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins came on AW early in the year; 0-12 on turf but placed twice at Ffos Las this summer, once at 1m on soft; place chance. |
4/1 |
|
5th 5 (5) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins came on AW at the beginning of the year; 0-11 on turf but she was runner-up at Ffos Las (1m, soft) in June and a good third behind Kaleidoscope Eyes there (7.3f, good) last time; should go well again and she won't mind if the ground becomes testing. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Second Ffos Las win off the year when comfortably on top over 1m on soft (other win on good) last Sunday; fairly treated under a 4lb penalty but this is significantly harder than that 0-60. |
9/1 |
|
1st 1 (9) |
27th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won on good ground here in early August and another solid run when no match for the winner on good to soft at Chepstow last time; probably prefers this slower surface so looks a solid candidate. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 6 (7) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; has been up and down this season and was well held at Ffos Las (7.3f) last time, but she justified strong support there on her penultimate run; has claims if she can recapture that form and she's effective over C&D. |

27th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
The trip and conditions will be fine but she's lost her form in a major way since the winter; leap of faith is required to support her now. |
14/1 |
|
6 (1) |
21st Sep 2026 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Versatile regarding trip/ground but very little has gone to plan during this season's light campaign; ran as though something was amiss at Bath 19 days ago; leap of faith required to support her here. |
10/1 |

9th 1 (7) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hampered by faller and pulled up at Lingfield in May, and withdrawn here three days later when jockey had concerns over how filly was moving and was not prepared to ride; however, she was just 7-2 at the time of withdrawal and this C&D winner is capable of playing a leading role off her last winning mark. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

The last of his eight career wins was in 2023; plenty of competitive runs during the losing sequence but not his last two. |
40/1 |
|
6th 8 (10) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Good third in a classified event over C&D (firm) in July but he wasn't at the same level at Chepstow last week and his last win was in 2023; others preferred. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (10) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Hasn't won for ages but he was a close third under a prominent ride in a classified event at Bath (1m, firm) when last seen in early July; has possibilities if he can back that up and he's ideally suited by slow ground |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Three wins at Chepstow this summer; well beaten at that track three weeks ago but it was a Class 2 series final and he was well out of the weights; capable of bouncing back with a big run at this more suitable level. |
8/1 |
|
13th 12 (14) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Three course wins already this year, the latest by a neck over 7f (good to firm) 13 days ago (won on soft ground in June); placed four times from six starts over C&D and could go well again despite being 3lb out of the weights. |
12/1 |

1st 7 (6) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
C&D winner in July off 2lb lower; below that level since and he's the most exposed of these (2-36). |
12/1 |
