14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won at Newbury in April (2m, good) but disappointing since, particularly when tailed off at York last month (2m, good to soft); plenty to prove. |

6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Comfortably made all in a small field at Newbury (2m, good) in April and he's also effective on soft ground; however, he's been tailed off on both starts since and needs to get back on track following a break. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
Eight wins divided between turf/AW; only 2lb above last winning mark and she was second at Newbury before facing a tough task in the Northumberland Plate; softening ground welcomed. |
14/1 |

14th 9 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Ended last year in storming form with a 1m6f/2m hat-trick, the final leg on Southwell Tapeta; not disgraced when never dangerous here in January and made a satisfactory return to turf (second at Newbury) in April, but this 8yo needs to hit another new high. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Best form on AW but has won on turf and it was his best effort on grass when third of six at Newbury (2m, good; plugged on) three weeks ago; each-way shout. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Unraced here except in a maiden (fourth of six); three wins in last year's 3yo campaign (good/soft) but none this season; his form has gone the wrong way and, even though a reduced mark has helped him to some minor honours lately, others have more pressing claims. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 10 (12) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Three wins in last year's 3yo campaign (good/soft), two of them here (1m4f/1m6f); his form has gone the wrong way this season but he hasn't run badly off a reduced mark on his last two outings and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces and/or the return to Haydock will elicit a bigger effort today. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 27y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Two disappointing runs before a much more competitive show, still below form, when fifth of ten off this reduced mark in 2m Shergar Cup race at Ascot eight days ago; still needs to perk up somewhat but this is a drop back in class. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Made winning debut at Southwell (1m4f) just under a year ago but has become disappointing in handicaps this season; eased in grade today and still has plenty of time to get career back on track but it takes a leap of faith to support him. |
10/1 |
|
6th 8 (9) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who ran well behind Constitution Hill in AW novice event on reappearance; rather disappointing in handicaps since but may stage a turnaround if he settles; raced too freely last time. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Made a winning debut at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last September and finished a 2l second of eight behind Constitution Hill in a novice over this C&D in March; however, he didn't get home when sent off favourite on his handicap debut at Newbury (2m) and was tailed off at Ascot (1m4f) in May; returning to the AW may help. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Versatile 5yo whose latest win was a handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last November (2m5f, soft); hasn't been at his best on the Flat this year (2m-2m4f) although not beaten far in the Shergar Cup last time; not sure drop in trip will suit. |
22/1 |
|
8th 2 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Useful 1m4f performer and pretty good on his day over hurdles; however, hasn't found his best form this season at 2m/2m4f and has yet to convince as a stayer in this discipline; tried a visor last time at Royal Ascot and cheekpieces return. |
16/1 |
|
14th 5 (2) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
1m4f winner from the front off this mark at Newmarket last May who also scored with a prominent ride over hurdles at Cheltenham (2m5f) in November; has a bit to prove over 2m on Flat, including having been always behind on both starts this year; now tries a visor (often wears cheekpieces) and maybe there will be a change of tactics. |
