20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Improver who has won three of his last seven starts including when back from a break at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) last month; up 4lb for that narrow success but he still looks feasibly treated and his first two wins were at this track; respected. |
13/2 |

1st 7 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Wins both came off a 3lb lower mark over 1m round Kempton, latterly in January; there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh, so he looks to have a bit to overcome back from three months off. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Both wins over C&D, the latest two weeks ago off a 3lb lower mark; up in class this time but certainly not handicapped out of things. |

3rd 4 (10) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who has been a good second at Lingfield (7f, AW) and Redcar (1m, good) this spring; hasn't necessarily shaped as if crying out for this trip but he's likely to be bang there again if his stamina holds. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
This low-mileage 4yo found the line coming a few strides too soon when odds-on favourite for his 7f Lingfield (AW) reappearance ten days ago; that points to this return to 1m suiting one who is back out a couple of days before a 3lb rise for Lingfield takes effect; his turf wins last year came on good to firm and good; should go well. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won two novices over this trip last May before finishing held in some decent-quality handicaps (among the favourites each time); not fully exposed as yet and this is a deal less competitive on his AW debut, back from seven months off, having been gelded. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All his wins have been over 7f but there's been only one of those (Epsom last August) in very nearly two years now; still paying for the ease of that win in a seven-runner race, so others are preferred. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Found 1m stretching him on his comeback from five months off and is entitled to improve, back in the cheekpieces last sported last July; still paying the price for his easy Epsom win last August, though, and there's not much wiggle room off this mark. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (7) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Scored at Epsom (7f) last August and proved largely reliable in 2025; this course scorer goes well fresh too so not out of things. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Only seen once since leaving Andrew Balding 18 months ago, when well held last October; won his novice over C&D and the hood going back on should help but it's hard to know whether he's still up to this sort of mark. |
12/1 |
|
9th 8 (4) |
1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two wins for Andrew Balding last year, a Lingfield novice (7f, Polytrack) and a Ffos Las handicap (7.4f, heavy); makes his stable debut (same owner) after a year off with the hood removed; watch market. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ten-time winner who scored at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in Janaury but he's not got involved in his last three starts; now 2lb lower than for that last success but he needs to rediscover his spark. |
20/1 |
|
5th 2 (7) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent record round here (2-4 over C&D) and is back on the mark off which he won here in January; not in the same form of late, there's always a chance he'll blow the start and it's no certainty the race will be set up for him. |
8/1 |
|
6th 3 (3) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner who gained his sixth success on the AW at Lingfield (7f, AW) in January; didn't quite see 1m out when sixth there in February and he never featured in a 0-105 at Kempton (7f) 22 days ago; will appreciate the drop in grade but he'll want a good gallop to aim at over this shorter trip. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Down the field in both handicaps after winning a Chelmsford novice at odds of 1-16f; hopes rest on the step up in trip having a positive effect. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (3) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Chelmsford win at long odds-on last November didn't amount to much and he's perhaps best judged on his subsequent handicap debut, when never involved; needs to improve a deal on that back from five months off. |
6/1 |
|
1 (1) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Promising efforts on both starts, finishing second to an odds-on favourite in a Chepstow maiden (6f, soft) and keeping on well for third in a Kempton novice (6f, Polytrack) latest; plenty in his pedigree to suggest this extra furlong could induce improvement; player. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won twice over shorter last summer; big prices and little to cheer this year; down in the weights but he has plenty to prove. |
50/1 |
|
11th 15 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Returns to his ideal sphere (turf) but brings a question mark over his current form, having trailed home last in both AW outings this year; possibly out of his depth to boot, having never won above Class 4. |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Last four wins have come in high summer, including two from the front last year for Jack Dace (rides Tiger Crusade), and he remains weighted to his best; didn't offer much on his comeback three weeks ago and an easy 7f is a bare minimum these days. |
