9th 12 (3) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Returned from break with hard-fought C&D win in January and has held his form pretty well since, albeit his latest run was a shade disappointing; current mark is workable; no surprise if he features. |
10/1 |
|
6th 9 (4) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with C&D victory (third one) and has continued in good form, fading late on when third of 11 in 1m classified event here last time; ought to be thereabouts again. |
10/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Running well here this year and he landed a classified in January; subsequently placed in two course handicaps (also 7f); didn't beat a rival in previous three starts at this sort of trip but still commands respect in current mood back in a classified. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Serial slow starter who's done most recent racing over 7f and looked to find this trip stretching her a couple of times; capable if getting away and finding the race setting up for her but she's been expensive to follow in 0-50 company latterly. |
12/1 |
|
8th 1 (7) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed in all three starts since dropped to this level, twice finishing runner-up over C&D last month; creditable effort when third of 11 at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) 12 days ago considering she was drawn wide and blew the start; major player. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 2 (11) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished second in two 7f classified events at Southwell last month, collared close home on the second occasion; this C&D winner is one of two solid candidates for her connections. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Exposed mare whose last win came in Wolverhampton classified (6f, AW) in January 2025; having first start on turf since September 2024 and others are more persuasive. |
12/1 |
|
7th 8 (8) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Without a win since last January but her last two efforts have been solid, including when third over C&D 26 days ago; visor (worn once before) replaces blinkers and she has place claims. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner at Southwell much earlier in career; poor strike-rate in last few years but ties in with American Rose on reappearance form over C&D last week. |
5/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
21st Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
No issue with this track, his last two wins over C&D (good to firm); knocking at the door lately, going close at Nottingham (6f, good to soft; beaten a head) a fortnight ago; should give another reasonable account. |
10/1 |
|
13 (14) |
8th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Multiple 6f-7f winner (turf wins on fast ground); arrives in reasonably good form after two AW placed efforts but has plenty to prove on soft ground. |

16th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished last of 12 in classified event over C&D six days ago and is now 0-15; cheekpieces are reached for now. |
20/1 |
|
12th 2 (5) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Fair third of nine in a 0-55 handicap at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) on his penultimate start, but didn't back that up in a similar race to this there 13 days later and now 0-14; his stamina isn't assured either. |
12/1 |

7th 2 (1) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

13-race maiden; fair C&D third on latest start and has an each-way chance on that form. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Just two wins in 34 starts and he hasn't been in great form on the AW, which usually brings out the best in him. |
25/1 |
|
6th 10 (3) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Two wins from 33 starts; third of 11 in a C&D classified event in January but he's not been at that level back here on his last three starts; cheekpieces, worn last time, are retained. |
20/1 |
|
10th 5 (8) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
The odd encouraging effort this winter but he hasn't been at his best on his last two starts; connections now turn to cheekpieces. |

19th Feb 2026 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
20-race maiden; quiet this winter (had a wind op in November) and although last season's turf best gives her claims, she has too much to prove for comfort; cheekpieces now tried. |
16/1 |
|
10th 3 (2) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-19; recent efforts have seen a few backward steps, including when last of eight here (7f) latest; hood discarded in favour of first-time tongue-tie and visor, which need to have positive effect. |
14/1 |
|
8th 3 (3) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed several times but still a maiden and has weak claims on her handicap form since returned to AW; however, this drop to 0-50 classified level may have positive effect. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won in this grade on turf in summer 2024 but is 0-26 on AW; made the frame twice off her basement handicap over C&D in the autumn and didn't run badly when seventh in this grade here last month but others look stronger. |
20/1 |
|
8 (5) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Came up short in similar event at Newcastle on Tuesday, taking AW record to 0-26; gained sole turf success in 2024. |
|
|
7th 8 (3) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to win on AW (0-25); far from convincing since finishing fourth to Bishop's Glory over 6f here (7-1) in November; last of seven over 6f here ten days ago; clear and obvious risks. |
16/1 |
