1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Only run over 5f once, when well held over C&D two years ago, and has done most recent racing over 7f; resumed in decent form and this is easier if anything but the drop back in trip from the outside stall would have to be a worry; headgear returns. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won back-to-back, here (6f) and Wolverhampton (7f), last October; higher in the weights now and Ethan Tindall is booked for Ideal Guest; raced freely when seventh of nine at Wolverhampton (7f; 16-1) two months ago; others more obvious. |

7th 7 (4) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
No win in his first 23 starts but he made the breakthrough at Catterick (6f, soft) in October and followed up with a strong-finishing success over C&D; flopped back at this track in November but he had a wide trip and remains feasibly treated on his penultimate run; needs a close look back from a break. |

Back to form with a good second at Wolverhampton last week (7f); has a C&D win on his record and a repeat of that latest run would give him a chance but consistency hasn't always been his strong suit. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

C&D winner in October but yet to hit top form in handicaps this season, only 11th over 7f Doncaster 17 days ago; this is easier, though. |
7/2 |

11th 12 (15) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Dual AW winner but he's been off the boil on Polytrack and Tapeta since December; still lightly raced on turf but he needs to rediscover his spark back in this sphere. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Both wins have came over C&D; below his best on his last two starts but now back on his last winning mark; not out of this. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed 21-race maiden; went close in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in November but raced freely and dropped away over that C&D last month; down in grade but he will need to settle better back up in trip. |
8/1 |

5th 5 (6) |
27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

18-race maiden but placed in four of his last six starts (all in classified events from 6f-9.5f); experienced apprentice booked and he's more appealing than many. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Shaped quite well on his handicap debut here (7f) last October; didn't build on it at Lingfield two weeks later (1m) and now returns from 140 days off; drop to 6f not sure to suit but he is still worth a market check. |
16/1 |

11th 6 (9) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Pleasing start to his handicap career when plugging on for fifth at Wolverhampton two weeks ago (7f; first run for seven months); the step up in trip should suit and Billy Loughnane takes over in the saddle. |

Front-runner who won over C&D in 2024; beaten around 6l when third here in January but he's been well held in two starts since; others preferred. |

7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Front-runner and C&D winner, but patchy form since his latest success last summer and was well held in a 0-50 classified event here four week ago; others preferred. |

8th 4 (11) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins for Joseph O'Brien and she's had plenty of chances to win a race in Britain but failed to do so; never figured at Wolverhampton on Monday. |
14/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won two of her first three starts (for Joseph O'Brien) but beaten 22 times since moving to Britain, including five runs for James Owen; creditable third over C&D two weeks ago (cheekpieces first time); each-way claims. |
3/1 |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Disappointing favourite at Brighton last time when perhaps stretched by 1m2f; bang there over 1m in her first two runs for this yard, though, including a third to Ribston Pippin at Yarmouth in August. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Found improvement when winning a 7f handicap at Chelmsford in September; tailed off back at Chelmsford 11 days ago (1m) and plenty to prove from a wide stall. |
20/1 |
|
3 (7) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Bounced back to form to open account with clearcut 7f win here last month, her tenth start; it's hard to predict whether she'll build on that success but a 4lb rise does not seem excessive and she should be okay back at 1m. |
13/8 |
|
13 (2) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Winning for the third time at Wolverhampton, and his first over further than 7f, when landing a C&D handicap in March; his stamina looked stretched by 9.4f when fourth 18 days ago; not ruled out back down in distance. |
5/2 |

4th 8 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His third win here when holding on grimly last month (8.6f), ending a two-year losing streak; only 2lb higher but he wouldn't be an obvious one to follow up and has never raced over quite this far. |
12/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All four wins at 7f, two on this track, but he lost out only narrowly over C&D in January (Lhebayeb third); found less over 1m at Newcastle (favourite) last month but is of more interest back at Wolverhampton. |

11th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Out of sorts on both turf and AW this year; gained her only win over C&D and she should appreciate the return to Tapeta but she has enough to prove for now. |

3rd Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Sole win (28 races) was on AW in January 2024 and she has not finished closer than fifth in her nine runs this year; uninspiring record here. |
