3rd 8 (8) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Chased home the bang-in-form Aisling Oscar over C&D in December, and he's 2-2 since returning from a break, winning at Southwell and Thirsk (both 1m); has risen a combined total of 10lb (3lb since latest) for those two wins, but he has to figure on the shortlist in pursuit of the hat-trick. |
11/4 |

1st 10 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Some narrow defeats on AW over the winter but he returned from a break with his best effort yet, overcoming some interference at Southwell (1m) last week to win in good style; has a 7lb higher mark to shoulder in his first 1m turf handicap but he could prove progressive. |

0-10 but he posted some good efforts last year, including when beaten a neck (by one who won his next four) at Newcastle (1m, AW) 138 days ago; steps up in grade on his first start since. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won three in a row at Southwell (1m, AW) earlier this year and solid second there (1m) a fortnight ago; he won here in 2024 and holds strong claims if transferring his fine recent form back to turf. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 4 (11) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has been in good form since the turn of the year and completed a C&D hat-trick when pulling clear to record a comfortable success 40 days ago; now steps back up in grade off this 9lb higher mark but he's still fairly treated on his old form. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all on AW debut and second start back from a long absence at Southwell (1m, AW) in April, and third there since (1m) in a race that is working out very well; won on turf in 2024 and he's a strong candidate if his good recent form continues back on grass. |

3rd 6 (8) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Stepped forward considerably from his stable debut and first start for 553 days when landing a C&D handicap 12 days ago (made all); that was his first try on the AW and he's respected off this 4lb higher mark. |
13/2 |

1st 9 (8) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Ex-Irish 5yo who makes his AW debut (half-brother to a Polytrack winner) having been beaten a long way on his first run in 18 months for new connections four weeks ago; ran well to a point in that Doncaster race, though, before not seeing out 1m2f. |

Three-time AW winner who has rather stagnated in that sphere in 2026; record of 0-8 on turf but he was placed off higher marks in last two attempts; each-way possibilities, provided he's back in similar form. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |

Newmarket raider; six-race maiden who is proving reasonably consistent and whose handicap efforts, all at about 1m, suggest this step up in distance may well prompt progress; first success is conceivable. |
5/1 |
|
5th 3 (7) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Kept on for third over this C&D on her handicap debut, doing best of those from off the pace, and posted another solid effort when fourth at Beverley (8.5f, good to soft) 22 days ago; good claims back on AW. |
5/1 |
|
4th 1 (8) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Placed in all four starts, including when keeping-on third on her handicap debut at Southwell (1m, AW) ten days ago; same mark and should be fine returned to turf; fitness is guaranteed and she's a leading contender. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
In fine fettle (form figure 522122) last spring/summer, rounding off with a close second to Eeetee at Redcar (1m, good to soft, 6-4 favourite) in July; fair sixth to Military Leader on Southwell comeback run but disappointed over 1m2f at Haydock subsequently; best watched. |
16/1 |

5th 9 (4) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
In good form last May-July, winning at Carlisle (1m, soft) and runner-up on four occasions, including there at 1m1f on soft; never dangerous on reappearance 15 days ago, which also happened at the same juncture last term before a good run next time; player if he can stay 1m2f, which isn't nailed on. |
8/1 |

6th 9 (9) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

In good form last year, winning at Carlisle (1m, soft) in June and finishing runner-up on four occasions, most recently at Redcar (1m, good to soft) 291 days ago; needed his reappearance over this C&D last May and that may well be the case again. |

Posted an improved effort when a close-up third of seven on his handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m, good to soft) 231 days ago and has since undergone gelding/wind operations; also has the tongue-tie back on and he's a contender back on the AW. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |

Began career with two encouraging runs this summer and the tongue-tie he tried when faring less well at Chelmsford (1m) is now removed; could have a role to play on handicap debut. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
1-19 and his best form has come on the AW, albeit he didn't run very well at Southwell last time and his previous fourth of 13 at Thirsk (1m, good) was better; frame material again based on that effort. |
10/1 |

9th 10 (10) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

5th 6 (6) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Four-time course winner, all in the winter months, latterly off this mark in January; usually misses the break and again hung left when behind Marry The Night over C&D last time; a stronger pace would help for last year's winning yard. |

5th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

9st 0lb |
1m2f win here (good to firm) kicked off a four-timer in 2023 for Tony Carroll but he took a while to rediscover his level before scoring at Chepstow (1m4f, good; first-time blinkers) for this yard one year ago; raced mainly over further without success since and latest start over 1m can be written off; handy mark and he's not discounted on just his second visit to Brighton. |
9/1 |

11th 5 (1) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten 11l when fifth in a maiden hurdle at Hereford three weeks ago; only 1lb higher than for his win at Chepstow (1m4f, good) last May but will likely find this trip on the sharp side on his switch back to the Flat (all wins over 1m2f or further). |
14/1 |

5th 4 |
16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Some notable Flat form last year, in victory and defeat; two runs over hurdles last February were underwhelming but raw ability is respected. |
