2nd 3 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
2-2 this year, winning 6f handicaps at Chelmsford in January and at Wolverhampton three weeks ago; 6lb rise for latest success takes him to a career-high mark but he is well drawn and should give it another good go. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Running in this race for the third time, having finished second in 2024 and fourth last year; those runs were after a break but he has the benefit of a run this time around, winning a 6f handicap at Chelmsford five weeks ago; still on a feasible mark and he is a key player for a stable going well. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner who is 3lb lower than when last successful; second of nine at Lingfield (5f, AW) in September but he was below his best on turf on his next three outings; returns from a 97-day absence but he's of interest back on the AW. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Tends to lead; started the year well on AW but it all went wrong at Newcastle in March and he could only beat one home in seven-runner 5f course handicap a fortnight ago; easy ground probably no help that day and it's not impossible this C&D winner can stage a revival. |
16/1 |
|
6th 8 (12) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Front-runner whose last four wins have been on the AW, the most recent over 6f at Newcastle in February, but he did win here (6f) in 2024; failed to beat a rival home having unseated his rider on the way to the start at Newcastle in March and now drops back to 5f on first start since; looks likely to face competition for the lead. |
20/1 |
|
14th 10 (3) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
His good 5-15 AW record includes a comfortable C&D win from the front last month; creditable third of nine at Chelmsford (5f) since and the form of that race has been boosted; a must for the shortlist. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple winner down the years and gained his most recent success (narrowly, three starts ago) off current mark; subsequent dip in form is the negative. |
12/1 |
|
11th 1 (15) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Getting on but retains a lot of his old ability, is still consistent enough and has won over C&D before; rare off-day at Thirsk a fortnight ago, having beating a subsequent winner in a small field off 1lb lower previously; quite capable of bouncing back. |
12/1 |
|
6th 2 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Retains a large portion of his ability despite his advanced years and took advantage of a reduced mark at Cattterick (6f, good) ten days ago; only nudged up 1lb for that narrow success. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, two seconds and a third to his name from 11 starts over C&D; beaten as favourite (behind Farandaway) here a month ago but is on a workable mark now and one to consider back under Rossa Ryan. |
4/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won six times in the first half of 2025, three of them over C&D; close third at Kempton last time and he should go well for a stable who were in fine form in February (6-12). |
4/1 |
|
3rd 6 (4) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All six wins came on AW in 2025; caught the eye both starts this time around (finished behind Em Four latest) and is back on his last winning mark now; trainer red hot; chance may hinge on how well Callum Shepherd, who has done a good job in the past, can settle him. |

1st 7 (3) |
25th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Nine wins on AW; scored at Bath on penultimate outing but is only 2-23 on turf and latest effort confirms that marks in the 80s are probably beyond him, at least nowadays, in this sphere. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf but he's capable of useful 6f form on grass and made short work of his rivals at Bath (extended 5f, good) last week; now 6lb higher but this mark isn't beyond him on past exploits; would have welcomed rain but still considered. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 (12) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Nine-time AW winner who won three in a row during the winter and was a creditable fifth in Class 3 at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) two weeks ago; record of 1-21 on turf but he's on a lower mark in this sphere and he had a close call at Windsor last autumn; dangerous. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon off a 7lb higher mark; didn't run badly at Nottingham (5f, good) on penultimate start and a wide draw offers an excuse at Chester since. |
33/1 |
|
10th 13 (12) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon off a 5lb higher mark; didn't run badly at Nottingham 12 days ago (5f, good) but he has a double-figure stall to contend with and could prove vulnerable. |
16/1 |
|
4th 9 (6) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and has done all his winning over 6f/7f; inconsistent since last success; 0-12 over 5f and doesn't look the answer. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Tame end to last season and no return to form on his two starts this year; however, he's 2lb lower than when winning this under Olivia Haines last year (good to firm) and the return to the Rowley Mile could trigger a revival. |
12/1 |
|
7th 8 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

On a dangerous mark on 2025 best but he ended that campaign with some lesser efforts and it was the same story on his return to action five weeks ago; others look safer. |
16/1 |
|
7th 8 (4) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Both of his wins on the AW have been over C&D but his most recent success came on turf at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last May; back on the AW following a 159-day break. |

Went close off this mark over C&D in November; good run at Kempton on his penultimate start and he will find this more manageable than the hot Kempton handicap he contested on Friday; respected. |

9th 8 (5) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Two-time C&D winner; has been competitive off this sort of mark in recent months, beaten two noses into third over C&D 24 days ago (blinkered first time); up in class but likely to give it another good go. |

18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three-time AW winner, two of them over C&D, and he's tumbling down the weights; one to keep an eye on in the betting but he's struggled to get competitive since December; major turnaround needed in a switch of headgear. |
8/1 |
|
6th 2 (5) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner but his last success was 19 months ago and he's struggled in four runs for current yard; mark is tumbling but he needs a big turnaround back up in trip; cheekpieces return. |
8/1 |
|
9th 6 (9) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Three-time AW winner who was also successful on turf at Musselburgh (7f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in August 2024, but he's struggled in three starts since joining this stable; dropped another 3lb. |
