3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Newbury (1m, good) in May on third start for this yard and followed up when unpenalised at Yarmouth (1m, good) five days later; runner-up off this 6lb higher mark at Goodwood (1m1f, good to soft) last time, when outstayed, and he could play a leading role back down to 1m. |

Ex-Irish gelding who has only had four runs for Ian Williams and won the last two, 1m handicaps on good ground at Newbury and Yarmouth; had no penalty last time and now 6lb higher, but he's on a roll; has won on soft. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up off this mark at Newbury (1m, good) in May but slow starts can be an issue and he's been well held in his last two runs; didn't get much luck at Nottingham last time but he's not easy to predict and others are more persuasive. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (2) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Slow starts can be an issue and he couldn't get into it when sixth at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) recently, but it wasn't a bad run and before that he was second at Newbury (1m, good); the step back up in trip may help and he might not be far away; the visor (worn on last two runs) is left off. |
7/1 |
|
6th 10 (11) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Completely missed the break but showed best form since last July when second at Newbury (1m, good) in this first-time headgear combination under Oliver Carmichael one month ago; 1lb nudge still leaves him below his winning mark and he needs considering. |

30th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Course regular who won over 7f in March; only 2lb higher and mainly running well in the meantime but, although she has run with credit over this far, there's a suspicion that a shorter trip suits her better. |
4/1 |
|
4th 4 (9) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Third at Newbury (1m, good) on latest turf start in May and also ran well when filling same position at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) 12 days ago but wide draw makes things awkward here. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |

C&D win in March off 3lb lower and she ran a better race when third of 12 in a Class 5 over C&D 18 days later; up and down since but she can't be discounted. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Better record on Polytrack than turf and the handicapper's given him every chance, with him now 3lb lower than when not beaten far as favourite over C&D in January; looks set to go well back on the AW. |
7/2 |
|
4th 3 (11) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Has a stronger record on AW than on turf but produced best effort in this sphere when third off 7lb higher over C&D last June; good chance if that form is repeated. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Arrives in top form, winning two of his last three starts (1m2f and 1m, good to firm; both wins at Brighton); up 5lb in a stronger race but he still makes some appeal; stable won this in 2020 and 2025. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual course winner, latterly over 1m2f (good to firm) last month; travelled well for a long way when fourth in higher-grade company at Sandown (1m, good to firm; refitted cheekpieces) a fortnight ago and is of strong interest back at this track. |
100/30 |
|
4th 8 (3) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Went close at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) on reappearance and returned to form to win at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) recently; he likes that seaside venue and drops back in trip today, but he is capable of running well away from Brighton and at 1m, so he could be in the shake-up. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |

Running well this year, including a 1m2f win at Windsor (good to firm), but he wouldn't look to have much in hand off his mark; more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 (5) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Scored over C&D (good to firm) in June and was close third off today's mark at Epsom (1m2f, good) last month; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort a fortnight later but still enters calculations. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |

Spent last year in France; fine record here, including two wins in summer 2024 and a third off this mark in a blanket finish two weeks ago; the latter followed a Windsor win (1m2f, win); looks set for another big run. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; yet to win this season but she was a good third at Salisbury (1m, good) in June and filled the same position behind a big improver at Lingfield (1m, AW) last time; continues to edge down the weights and she's in the mix back on turf. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Yet to win this season but kept on for third at Salisbury (1m, good) in June and only faded out of contention in closing stages at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month, having raced wide throughout; on a tempting mark now; might be the answer. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Still a maiden but he has performed encouragingly in two runs, albeit both on Lingfield AW in December, since having wind surgery; returns to turf for this reappearance. |
10/1 |
|
6th 11 (4) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Still a maiden after 15 starts but he's well treated on his peak form and was best of the rest behind Harryella over C&D 13 days off; has a big swing in the weights with his old rival and could be dangerous if he can back that up. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 4 (10) |
26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

14-race maiden who has gone backwards since May, notably so the last twice, and can't be recommended at present; wore a visor latest start, which is ditched for this AW debut. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Two 1m wins on good ground last summer, including at this track; well short of that level in two runs this year and stepping up in trip with cheekpieces added isn't enough to tempt. |
8/1 |

6th 4 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Wide-margin classified win at Chepstow last July and she followed up in a Class 5 handicap at Haydock two weeks later (both 1m on good ground); well beaten in two runs since, including last month's return from 259 days on the sidelines; drops in class and could resume her progress. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Not solid on his AW form for current yard and he has regressive results on turf, so chance hinges on physical tweak (gelded since last run) and addition of tongue-tie. |
10/1 |

5th 3 (3) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not been with Faye Bramley long and there were signs of a revival when third, albeit beaten 4l, at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in December; failed to build on that when down the field at Lingfield in January but still dangerous to discount dipping into a 0-65 for the first time. |
