21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two 1m2f wins this year, the latest a fast-ground handicap at Leicester in May; respectable efforts since without hitting quite the same heights; should give a good account. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won twice this year and did well after a slow start to claim fourth in a similar race at Lingfield (1m2f, good) last month; if he breaks on terms then he holds strong claims. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On a good mark and beaten a neck at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) two runs back, form that has worked out well; poor last time over an extended 1m3f but that trip seems too far. |
14/1 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Had dropped 11lb lower than when last successful when beaten a neck at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) last month (third and fourth have won since); races off the same mark, but she didn't get home in one previous attempt over this far. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 4 (11) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Without a victory since 2023; off 21 months before a never-dangerous seventh of ten in 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap last month; she needs to take a major step forward. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed improved form when winning over this C&D in May and followed up at Leicester (1m2f, good) next time; raised 4lb for that latest success and she was held off this mark at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; may be high enough in the weights now. |
5/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Is enjoying an excellent season and bids for a hat-trick after back-to-back handicap wins at Chepstow (1m4f) and Leicester (1m2f) recently; up 4lb but big shout with promising 5lb claimer Ashley Lewis up. |
13/8 |
|
1st 3 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Posted her best effort when beating seven rivals at Chepstow (good to firm) on her first try over 1m4f 15 days ago, winning comfortably; unexposed over this sort of trip but she's now in a higher grade following a 6lb rise in the weights. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Doubled his tally when winning here over 1m4f in May, coming from last to first, and he left the impression he's still in form when sixth of 11 at Pontefract two weeks ago; will need a good gallop now dropped back in trip, which he isn't sure to get. |
7/1 |
|
6th 4 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Made it 2-28 when successful at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) in May and although a fair fourth of eight back there 12 days ago (Coverbridge third), it does suggest he needs a bit more off this mark. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Last month's C&D success (good to firm) took his record in handicaps here to 3241; no surprise were he to reverse previous 1m2f course placings with Myna despite a 4lb re-raise, and Liam Wright can claim more here than in that apprentice race last time; player. |

Lightly-raced ex-Irish maiden; off eight months and not disgraced on his handicap debut with fifth of 11 at Leicester (1m2f) in May; needs to build on it here. |
9/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Son of Teofilo who cut little ice in a trio of runs in 2025, seventh in 1m Lingfield maiden in September; lots more is needed on his return/handicap debut. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

Getting on and it's been a while since she won on turf; arrives in fair form but she only holds each-way claims dropped another 3lb. |

5th 7 (1) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |

No win since last March but thereabouts on most occasions since, including over C&D and on AW three days ago; could make her presence felt. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time winner over C&D and 2lb lower than for the latest; never figured on last month's stable debut at Leicester after 217 days off, but she may have needed it and no great surprise if she ran well. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ex-Irish winner; hold-up performer who finished well for second behind Scarfo off his much-reduced mark at Chepstow (1m, soft); needs a strong pace and he has major claims if he gets one. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 7 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Sole success came in August 2024 when trained in Ireland; has tumbled down the weights since his British debut in December; is a hostage to fortune as he tends to be held up and requires a fast pace to be seen to best effect. |
11/4 |

18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Yet to offer much in his eight runs to date; beaten 13l at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) last month; wears first-time blinkers but not easy to warm to. |

8th 10 (10) |

9th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Scored over hurdles at Stratford last May but below par on the AW over the winter, beating just one home in 1m2f handicap at Chelmsford in February; more is required after a break in a change of headgear. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D scorer but she's not proving the easiest to predict of late, tried in a change of headgear when only sixth of eight in 1m handicap here last month; others are preferred. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three of her wins on the Flat have been over 1m2f; failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in November but she ran a better race when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 26 days ago; cheekpieces replace the visor but this is the shortest trip she has encountered since July 2023. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Flat winner at 1m2f in May 2025; refused to race in May this year but he came nearest to a first hurdle win when close up in an ordinary handicap at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago; shouldn't be far away. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Displayed promise when making the frame in two maiden hurdles (2m, good/good to firm) this spring but he refused to race on the Flat in between and needs to improve to overcome top weight on this handicap hurdle debut. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 |
19th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Has regressed on the Flat since winning small-field Bath handicap for another stable a year ago; made fairly encouraging hurdle debut when keeping on for modest third at Plumpton (2m, good) last month but needs to build on that performance here and has since refused to race on the Flat. |
10/1 |
