4th 4 (1) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Reeled off a four-timer in May/June (1m2f-1m4f on ground ranging from good to soft to good to firm); those wins came at Class 6 level and she has been beaten twice in a higher grade since; 12lb higher than when winning this race in 2024; cheekpieces back on for the first time since February. |

4th 1 (2) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Retains plenty of vitality aged eight but completed his May/June four-timer in Class 6 and was soundly beaten when back up in grade last time; current mark leaves him in a difficult spot. |

2nd 6 (7) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Running well over this trip on turf here in her last couple of starts, finishing runner-up in May and going one better under Seamus Cronin the following month; up 5lb, but latest form has been boosted with the second and third both winning twice since; respected if as effective back on Polytrack; stable also runs Dubai Harbour. |
7/2 |

1st 8 (3) |
18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-8 but produced her first worthwhile piece of form when runner-up in a handicap over C&D (good to firm) 19 days ago; holds place claims at least if she can reproduce that effort. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 7 (8) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Poor under both codes, again starting a big price back on the Flat five weeks ago; hard to make a case for her, even in such a weak handicap. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
16-race maiden who has some modest form (mostly on AW) but was beaten 38l and 30l this month in his two starts for new stable; at least this drop back in trip looks a plus. |
14/1 |
|
8th 8 (5) |
15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-15 and placed just once (1m2f, good to firm); well beaten in a selling handicap (1m4f, AW) on first start for this yard and it's hard to make a strong case for him. |
33/1 |
|
8th 5 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ex-Irish maiden who was well backed on turf here last time, when coming away with two subsequent winners; a player on that, having since been picked up from Ross Burdon for 1,800gns, but he's never been quite this far and will need to settle better. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-14 and he didn't improve for the step up to 1m4f when fifth of eight at Leicester (good to firm) 20 days ago; drops back down into classified company but others appeal more. |
20/1 |
|
5th 8 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-13; kept on at Lingfield latest (good to firm) without improving for the step up to 1m2f, and he has further still to travel this time. |
40/1 |
|
4th 6 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
One of his better efforts at Yarmouth one month ago, when going beyond 1m for the first time, but was probably flattered in a muddling, small-field affair; will want to settle better upped in distance again. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual AW winner who opened turf account at 22nd attempt, coming from off the pace at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago; nudged up only 2lb for that and also suited by this C&D; likely contender again. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 (6) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Record of 2-38 but his last win was on AW here (1m2f) in March and he went close in an Epsom handicap (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; only 1lb higher than for that last run and he's respected on this drop back in grade. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless since 2024 and is having his first run on turf in three years; down to a career-low mark and has been in fair form in blinkers, but he's regressive and has returned three poor efforts in turf handicaps. |
4/1 |
|
5th 7 (1) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Dual C&D winner who's been brightened up by the blinkers of late without having the breaks; a slow start cost him here a month ago and he's one to consider. |

Often runs well here but has struggled this year despite a reduced mark; remains best watched; 1lb wrong at the weights. |
12/1 |

6th 4 (2) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |

Completed a hat-trick in the middle of last year, but 0-11 since despite a plummeting mark; needs a resurgence. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Poor maiden who's never gone close to finishing placed (7f-1m6f); the switch from cheekpieces to blinkers didn't make any difference back on turf one month ago. |
33/1 |
|
6th 9 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
13-race maiden and was tailed off over 1m6f at Wolverhampton 71 days ago; drops back markedly in trip with blinkers applied. |
50/1 |
|
9th 9 (9) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-race maiden who has finished ninth here in his two runs this winter and was behind several of today's rivals two weeks ago; passed over. |
