11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
All four wins over 1m4f, the last three on Tapeta; not seen since a career best to win at Wolverhampton in January and he's 4lb higher here; twice runner-up on turf last year; may need to hit a new turf high but he requires a second look given this small field. |

Triple 1m4f winner, including on Tapeta; handicapper has just had his measure since his last win but he's gone very close several times, the latest at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack); up 1lb; respected. |

1st 4 (8) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Did well on AW last winter and even better form when the cheekpieces replaced a visor at Goodwood (1m4f, good) four weeks ago, leading over 1f out to score with rather more authority than the half-length winning margin suggests; used to act on good to firm; up 3lb but firmly in the picture. |

1st 6 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins for Denis Quinn in the winter and a respectable fifth at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in April on sole starts for John Ryan; left the impression he's still in form at Thirsk 19 days ago on his first start for this yard and cheekpieces now go on. |
14/1 |

6th 10 (3) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins last winter for Denis Quinn and respectable fifth of 15 at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last month on sole run for John Ryan; however, it's a long time since he ran well on turf and has something to prove back on grass; stable debut. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win in 7f AW maiden as 3yo; very understated in early handicaps for this yard but he's been involved in three tight finishes at 1m3f and 1m2f on AW in 2026 and the step up to 2m in March looked more of an experiment than a plan; acts on turf and has claims back at 1m2f. |
5/1 |

6th 2 (1) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Still to add to his 7f maiden win for Charles Hills in October 2024 but he has been banging at the door this year, placed on his last four starts (1m2f-1m4f); goes into unknown territory in terms of stamina and he's by Blue Point so there has to be a question mark. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Not as good as he was in France and last two runs have been well below his best; however, on too good a mark to dismiss and inmates from this yard can return to form from nowhere. |
12/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |

Not as good now but remains generally consistent and is back on the mark off which he won here (1m2f) in the winter; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort over C&D when last seen six weeks ago. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Much respected on his form for Alan King, for all that he was 1-22 for that yard; following a 30,000gns sale he ran okay over C&D on last month's stable debut, but no more than that. |
10/1 |

30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Sole win (22 races) was on AW in June 2024; five seconds on turf and bang there on AW (1m3f/1m4f) on last two starts before 30,000gns sale (left Alan King) in April, but this is the first time he's gone beyond that on Flat. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |

Sole win in 1m2f Lingfield AW handicap nearly two years ago; has been running well since back on AW of late but it's pushing it to call him well handicapped in this competitive race. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |

Has a much better strike-rate on AW than on grass; soundly beaten off his lower turf mark returned to this sphere last time; opposed. |
25/1 |

8th 8 (8) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a four-runner race at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) as a 3yo, but all five wins since have come on the AW; rated 9lb lower on grass but still hard to warm to on a rare turf appearance. |
16/1 |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Often makes the running but came from towards rear under Harry Vigors to win a six-runner race at Wolverhampton (1m6f) on latest outing; that broke a long losing run but he's usually competitive and has won over C&D; player. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Two wins this year came on the AW, but his sole turf win came over this trip on good to firm ground; may be best to forgive his latest Chester performance and a possible if back on song. |

9th 10 (2) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Windsor maiden winner on turf last April but he's been confined to AW for all six starts this year; gets a 3lb nudge for his win at Kempton (1m) last time; 1m2f no issue but this is a notch above the standard he usually plies his trade in. |
7/1 |

1st 2 (7) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Versatile and in-form 4yo; opened his AW account in Lingfield contest (1m2f) in February; sound efforts at Kempton (1m) and Lingfield (1m4f; Good Friday card) since, finishing fourth both times; solid claims back down in distance. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Narrow C&D winner (Class 4; 12-1) in November and, broadly speaking, has acquitted himself respectably since; stamina was likely overstretched at Wolverhampton (1m4f) latest; it's interesting that Jack Callan (1-1) returns to the saddle from just 1lb above that winning mark. |

8th 3 (6) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |

1m2f and 1m4f AW winner, including on Tapeta; backed up November's Newcastle success with a respectable third at Lingfield last month; was below that level at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) latest; drops 1lb and can be competitive if he acts at this track. |

Triple AW winner at up to 13.5f, including easily over C&D against her own sex latest; a 5lb penalty may not prevent her from following up, provided that career-best form is repeated. |

1st 4 (3) |
23rd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Two wins since returned to AW in September and she's finished runner-up in her last four starts; didn't get much luck when a close second at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) two weeks ago and she's a key player off only 1lb higher here. |
9/4 |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |

Nosed ahead close home at Chelmsford (1m5f) five days ago, taking record since racing in AW handicaps to 12331; incurs a penalty but Joe Bradnam takes off 7lb; gives impression she'll stay this new trip; solid. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Was winning for the first time since his debut when just prevailing over 1m4f here (good) last month, but may not have been suited by the conditions when third of six at Yarmouth (11.5f, soft) 12 days ago; each-way claims. |
5/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Was winning for the first time since his debut when just getting the better of Patrol at Newbury (1m4f, good) last month; 5lb higher and could probably do with the ground drying out (best form on good or faster), but still respected. |
5/2 |

1st 14 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Has slipped to a career-low mark and well-backed fifth of 15 when returned to turf at Doncaster (1m2f) in March last time wasn't too bad; however, his record over that sort of trip is far more appealing than his two runs at 1m4f and his turf tally is 0-11. |
