2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Has enjoyed a good year with four wins, two of them over C&D; last two efforts leave her with a bit to prove, though. |
14/1 |

12th 2 (11) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hardy mare who landed four races on AW (1m to 9.5f) between February and April; also a previous four-time winner on turf but this is just her second crack at 1m2f on her 111th start; still not discounted. |
12/1 |

7th 4 (5) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
9yo who has won four times since February including twice over C&D; held in third when unpenalised at Wolverhampton last time but she wasn't beaten far and that was another creditable effort; should be in the mix again off 3lb higher. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
0-21 (Flat/hurdles) but went close over 1m after missing the break at Kempton in March; didn't get home having failed to settle over 1m2f at Bath (firm) 20 days ago but should be happier over this shorter trip; tongue-tie returns and she won't mind any rain (runner-up in both starts on ground slower than good to soft) |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (1) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-20 (Flat/hurdles) but she caught the eye after a slow start at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) and was narrowly beaten after completely missing the break at Kempton (1m, AW) 35 days ago; strong claims over this longer trip if exiting the stalls on terms. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
19-race maiden but she's on a reduced mark and was beaten less than 2l when fifth at Wolverhampton (7f) last month; that was an eye-catching effort after a slow start and she's an interesting contender back up in trip. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Belatedly opened account with clear win at Bath (1m, good) in April, her 18th start, and rebounded from lesser effort when second at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft) last month; has a tendency to race too freely, so this drop back in trip could be a good move; others have more potential, though. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (8) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Heavy defeat last time took her AW record to 0-15; opened her account with comfortable win at Bath (1m) earlier in April and remains unexposed on turf; not ruled out. |
20/1 |
|
11th 5 (11) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Placed on four of her last five AW starts before getting off the mark at the 18th attempt back on turf at Bath (1m, good) 22 days ago; back up 7lb but she should remain competitive without looking an obvious one to follow up. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Just one win from her 21 starts but that came in this race last year (good to soft) and she's been in good heart this spring, finishing second at Lingfield (7.6f, good) last Tuesday; solid claims. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win from 20 starts came at Leicester (7f, good to soft) last May for Pam Sly; faded late having set a strong pace over 1m a Yarmouth last month and ran a solid race when third there over 6f three weeks ago; contender back up in trip. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

Only win was at 7f and four of her last five races have been at 1m; stuck around here 17 days ago despite developing a clear lead and expect similar tactics back at 6f. |

9st 0lb |
Sole win from 23 starts came at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) in July 2023 for his previous yard; mostly struggled since joining this stable in 2024 but did shaped more encouragingly when fifth of eight at Kempton (1m, AW) 55 days ago; needs to build on that. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Well held at a short price round Bath last time but paid for going with a strong pace; had hit traffic here previously and this mark should be within range for a yard also responsible for Terries Royale. |

5th 3 (9) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Doubled her tally on turf when winning over C&D this month and she was unfortunate not to finish closer at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) having been denied a clear passage 12 days ago; returns here with claims. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

String of poor efforts since an Irish win over further last summer, finishing well behind Volendam on the AW last time; first-time headgear will need to make a big difference on this return to turf. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins have been here on the AW over 1m2f; ran well when runner-up at Kempton (1m, AW) in March but well beaten there 55 days ago and he's struggled in each of his three starts on turf. |
12/1 |

8th 7 (9) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins have been over 1m2f at Lingfield (AW) but he gave it a good shot when runner-up over C&D three weeks ago; on unchanged mark and he should be in the thick of things again. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 9 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins have been over 1m2f on Polytrack at Lingfield; several respectable efforts there since October but he's been well held in last two runs and his tactical speed will be tested back at this trip. |
