31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
One win (C&D) and three second-place finishes in six AW starts since October; front-running second, beaten a nose, over 8.6f here four weeks ago; in the mix again. |

2nd 3 (1) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in 2023 but better known as a 7f performer now; safely held over that trip here on last two appearances and needs to up his game. |
7/1 |

19th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in October before a good second at Southwell the following month; no impact after a slow start here on Boxing Day but that was against a pace bias and he still looks on a workable mark; dangerous if he can bounce back. |

15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Consistent record on AW features two wins; far less solid on turf form (finishing positions read 790) and can be opposed in a competitive affair kept to this sphere. |
25/1 |

11th 5 (7) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Doubled his tally on the AW when winning at Chelmsford (7f; first-time visor) in February and he was a close third there next time; however, below best in both starts on turf, including at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 23 days ago; headgear last five starts but not today. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent AW handicapper who ran creditably last time when bidding for a Chelmsford double (7f); can remain competitive provided the form is transferred back to turf (second attempt). |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won her first two as a 2yo and entered handicaps on an unrealistic mark; best efforts of late have come on Tapeta but she's won on Polytrack and has been offering more of late; capable at this level. |
10/1 |

7th 1 (6) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won her first two as a 2yo, including easily round here, and entered handicaps on an unrealistic mark; best efforts of late have come on Tapeta, including down to this company for the first time latest, and she's considered despite having stamina to prove. |
10/1 |

3rd 1 (10) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won her first two starts in 7f novice events on the AW but she's mostly struggled since, including when beating only one home at Lingfield (7f, AW) 20 days ago; drops in grade with her mark continuing to fall. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Beaten 13 times since last win at Newcastle (7f, AW) last September but close fifth of seven at Ayr (1m, good to firm) recently and he may appreciate the return to 7f; his mark continues to fall and he might not be far away. |
15/2 |

9st 2lb |
Has done his winning over 6f/7f, the last five times on AW (hasn't scored on turf since 2023); kept mostly to Newcastle since last September; not the percentage call in this scenario. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned only over 7f-1m; justified favouritism at Newcastle (AW) on seasonal debut, registering a first win since joining current yard; back up 5lb but remains well treated on peak form and he's 2-3 at Pontefract; should remain competitive, provided he stays the new trip. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Four wins on the AW in Class 6 company since December (6f-8.5f); respectable efforts on his last two outings but he possibly didn't quite get home over this trip at Ripon last month; each-way contender. |
11/1 |
|
4th 5 (8) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Four wins (6f to 8.6f) on AW since December; perhaps stretched by 1m2f when only fourth at Ripon a fortnight ago; returning to a mile should help but a career best is needed to defy this mark. |
10/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Rarely runs a bad race and he's won two of his last three starts, including an emphatic win at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) 11 days ago; has a penalty back on turf but he ran right up to his best last time and this new trip should be within range; respected. |
