3rd 4 (1) |
26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Course winner (2m) who bids a for hat-trick after wins at Ffos Las (2m, heavy) last September (by 12l) and on her Nottingham return under Donagh Murphy (1m6f, good) 17 days ago; only 2lb higher and much respected. |

1st 2 (1) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
9yo who won this race (good) on her reappearance in 2024 and she ended last season with a 12l win at Ffos Las (2m, heavy; made all); 7lb higher on her return but she still looks on a workable mark and won't mind what the weather does; key player for in-form yard. |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won over 2m1f on heavy ground last year and went in again at the expense of two rivals on good to firm this summer; nothing wrong with her latest effort in a Class 2 over 1m6f at Bath (soft). |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice over about 1m6f last September; low-key seasonal return last month but he fared better, albeit beaten at a short price, at Nottingham 18 days ago; shouldn't be too far away. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Tailed off on Musselburgh reappearance (1m6f, soft) last month but that was a rare blip and he's feasibly treated on his best form last season including two wins over this trip (good); dangerous if he can bounce back. |
13/8 |

10th 11 (6) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Highly reliable in handicaps, with 1m6f doing the trick when he won on good ground at Haydock and Chester in space of a week last September; needs to resume progress but enters calculations. |

3rd 3 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Two-time bumper winner (soft/good) who made all in Flat handicaps on Tapeta (1m6f) and turf (2m, heavy) in the second half of last year; ended last season on a low note but he still has scope for further progress and needs watching in market on his return. |
4/1 |
|
8th 8 (5) |
17th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Two-time bumper winner (soft/good) who has made all in Flat handicaps this year at Southwell (2m, AW) and Chester (1m6f, heavy); he did it easily last time and, while the form perhaps shouldn't be taken at face value, a 6lb rise isn't overly harsh; could make another bold bid. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
10yo who's 2-55, with last win in 2022; well handicapped on some 1m6f form last term and probably needed recent run, but whether he can be competitive at this trip nowadays remains to be seen. |
25/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Only 2-54 and a long time has passed since that second success; well handicapped on some form over 1m6f last season but he was up and down last year and he doesn't have a great record when fresh; others preferred. |
10/1 |

7 (6) |
4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Only 2-53 and a long time has passed since that second success; however, he had been knocking on the door until a near 10l defeat at Doncaster; couldn't be ruled out. |
