1st 5 (6) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
In-form 3yo who has reached the frame in AW handicaps (1m) in his last three runs, most recently when third at Kempton two weeks ago; record is now 1-10, but his dam won over 1m2f and he's respected at this new trip; cheekpieces worn in last two starts are removed. |
5/1 |

3rd 5 (7) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
3yo who ended last season with a Newcastle win (1m, AW) and has run well in three of his four starts this season including when fourth of 14 at Newcastle (cheekpieces added) last month; still has low mileage and he should be in the mix again. |
7/1 |

4th 10 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Ended 2025 with C&D victory and he's advanced his form this season, posting good third of 14 in 1m Kempton handicap 26 days ago; cheekpieces added; merits consideration from an unchanged mark. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
In-form 3yo who is 2-6 since handicapping; fitted with cheekpieces in last two starts, winning at Hamilton then creditable fifth in notable event at Carlisle, both over 1m; likely player off bottom weight in the retained headgear. |
8/1 |
|
5th 16 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Won 1m handicaps at Southwell (AW) in April and Hamilton (good; 6lb higher today) 15 days ago; that's two wins from eight starts and he should be a lot more exposed than most of today's rivals, but he was firmly in charge in first-time cheekpieces on that latest outing. |
18/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Landed 1m Southwell handicap in April; only sixth under an aggressive ride at Haydock (1m) six days ago but no surprise to see him bounce back with cheekpieces added. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Territories gelding; in the frame on all his four runs to date, returning with a good fourth on his handicap debut at Southwell (1m) last month; this keen-going sort holds solid claims back down to 7f. |

1st 5 (2) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won a Brighton novice (1m, good to firm) last October and has run with credit in handicaps over 1m/1m1f since returning in April, without looking ahead of his mark; this return to a longer trip may help, but others are still preferred. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
1m novice winner at two and then gelded; slow starts weren't helping matters this season but raced in touch last time at Lingfield (1m1f) and they all bumped into an improver; could go well. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Often pulled hard last year and was gelded over the winter; this season his issue has been blowing the start and that's what cost him any chance last time; up to winning off this mark but has to be considered risky now. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Didn't have to improve on his 2yo form to win a novice at Lingfield (1m, AW) in February; beaten in three handicaps since but he is slipping down the weights. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
5th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made a successful return in an uncompetitive Lingfield novice (1m, Polytrack) in February, but not built on it in two handicaps on turf/Tapeta since; bit more needed back down in trip. |
7/1 |
|
5th 10 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
May not have achieved that much when justifying odds of 1-2 in a Lingfield novice (1m, AW; first start since being gelded) in February and was well beaten on handicap debut at Southwell (1m, AW) in April; this is only his second start on turf, but other look more compelling. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
0-7; showed ability in his first two starts last year, but hasn't built on it and the step up in trip made little difference when fifth of seven at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) last month, albeit the form of that race has worked out well; still more needed. |
20/1 |
|
6th 7 (3) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Initially promising but hasn't kicked on in handicaps (0-3; 7f-1m) and blinkers are removed after last time; bit to prove, though getting back on fast ground is a likely plus. |
16/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Fair maiden who wasn't discredited with fifth of nine in 1m Nottingham handicap 18 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb with blinkers added. |
