9st 2lb |
Won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (firm) on the second occasion; not written off but below par on last two starts (including here) and needs to get back on track. |

8st 11lb |
Front-runner who won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March and was runner-up on her next two starts (5f, AW/firm); below par in a classified at Bath (5.7f, good) last time but could bounce back with a bold show back down in trip. |

Unraced on slower than good; front-runner who won here over 5f in 2024; won on the AW at Lingfield in March and has posted two good efforts since, including when beaten 1l in a 5f handicap here 23 days ago; comes into this in better form than most. |

Close second at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March when 5lb higher; however, unable to replicate that form across his three starts since and he's won just one of his 17 outings. |

Won a six-runner classified stakes at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) in June; however, this 10yo hasn't been able to pose the same threat in his three handicap outings since May. |

Five wins here, two of which were over today's distance; landed his first turf win in a classified at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) in June latest; withdrawn (upset in the stalls) five weeks ago; work to do back in a handicap. |

10st 3lb |
Made it 14th-time lucky at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) last month and followed up under a positive ride at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday, taking his turf record to 33211; respected despite his 5lb penalty. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Regressive on the AW earlier in the year for this yard, having missed a year, but the return to turf and drop to 0-55 company did the trick under Rossa Ryan last time; going back up 7lb will test him but he's only had a handful of starts on grass and may well be up to it. |
7/4 |

1st 3 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13-race maiden but he's reached the frame in sprint handicaps on AW in his last four starts; remains unexposed on turf and he could go well again off a sliding mark back in this sphere. |

Has gained all eight of her wins over further (6f-1m); finished off well to be beaten around 2l over 5f on the AW at Lingfield 97 days ago; returns to turf having been off since and will need a good pace to aim at. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Rather lost his way for Michael Attwater and finished a long way behind Dreambird Dolly for his new yard at Salisbury recently; hard to find a reason why he'll turn things round. |
12/1 |

7th 2 (4) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Gained sole success off a higher mark but isn't particularly solid on 2026 efforts, both in the spring; left Michael Attwater since; possibly best watched unless the betting speaks positively. |

Sole win in 24 races was a Brighton maiden in May 2024 (6f, good); fair run last time at Wetherby but others appeal more for the win. |

15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |

Good second at Wolverhampton on his stable debut last September; well short of that level in three runs this year, including when tried in cheekpieces 19 days ago; risky. |

8th 3 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Fine second at Wolverhampton on his stable debut last September; not so good in two runs this year and hopes rest on the new cheekpieces turning things around. |

5th 5 (3) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Dual winner in Ireland for Natalia Lupini but he struggled for Tim Easterby in 2024/25; made a good start for this yard when second of nine at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) in September but he was disappointing following a slow start over 6f there 16 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

Races mainly on the AW; not that easy to win with (record of 1-21); in fair form when last out, finishing runner-up in three of his last four races (all at 6f) having won over 6f at Chelmsford in February; first turf run since May last year when fifth of six at Brighton (6f, good to firm). |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Can make the running; twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) this spring and had excuses for a lesser effort over 5f there last time; each-way possibilities. |
8/1 |
|
8th 6 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Successful in a 6f handicap at Chelmsford in February off a 4lb lower mark; runner-up here (6f) on his last two starts and he has run well over 5f in the past; should give his running. |
3/1 |
