1st 8 (8) |
18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Failed to beat a horse home in three starts last year; gelded since and has been a completely different proposition since returning this month, winning two classified events at Yarmouth (1m/1m2f, soft) and one at Wolverhampton AW on Tuesday night; looks open to more progress and he has leading claims. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Back to form when chasing home a rival miles ahead of his mark over C&D three weeks ago; still has low mileage; considered. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (12) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Yet to get involved after six starts and looked to find 1m stretching her stamina in two runs in the spring; wide stall won't help and she needs to improve for the switch to the AW. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In-form 4yo who has been placed at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in his last two starts including when runner-up in a handicap last Monday; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if he gets the breaks. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 (9) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two of his four wins in 2025 came in handicaps here, one over C&D; has been below that form since and a resurgent effort last time came in a classified race. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
He's gone very close in an AW handicap (in March) and should be okay on this slow ground as a son of Mayson; considered. |
13/2 |
|
4th 11 (8) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Nothing wrong with his C&D handicap second in March and his subsequent third here at a short price is best overlooked; open to a bit of improvement still and is one of those best placed to take advantage should Rockafeller Skank not fire. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Both turf wins have been at 1m on good to firm; has won twice in blinkers on AW this year; although not in top form last twice, these conditions are ideal and could go well on this return to turf. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice at this level earlier in the year, including C&D; finished behind Gloriola when fifth over C&D three weeks ago; should give a good account. |
6/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Serial hard-puller who won a 0-50 over C&D in the winter and has held his form well; not beaten far in handicaps on last two outings and may have needed it last time after a break; one to consider. |

23rd Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
In the frame three times since leaving maiden and novice company, including in 1m4f classified on Lingfield AW recently; this slightly shorter trip could help back on Tapeta but more needed; cheekpieces refitted. |
7/1 |
|
4th 14 (8) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Eight-race maiden; second in Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f) on seasonal debut in April and put two lesser efforts behind him when sixth there (8.6f) last month but needs to find something extra over this new trip; wore blinkers or cheekpieces for last five races but goes without headgear today. |
8/1 |
|
6th 10 (5) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Clear second to a well-treated winner on comeback here in April but nowhere near meeting market expectations in three other handicaps; this race is easier, though, for a yard that ended a dry run with two jump winners last Friday. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course regular who's proved very consistent since the hood went back on; usually held up and wants a good test over this trip but he is more likely than most at this level to give his running, dropping back down from 0-60 company; each-way claims. |
8/1 |
|
7th 10 (5) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Record here this year reads 34513323 including a short-head defeat by Roman Secret over this trip in April; likely to go well and there shouldn't be much between them again. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 10 (4) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Running consistently round here all year at the bottom level; no obvious reason he won't get involved again but this is a touch stronger having been nudged up another 2lb. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hard-puller who ran below par in first-time cheekpieces (off tonight) last time; previously consistent at this sort of level but will need to settle better back up in trip after a six-week break. |
12/1 |
|
9th 11 (5) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Three-time Polytrack winner, twice in a hood, who goes in first-time cheekpieces; has been enjoying a consistent spell, albeit at the bottom level. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Dual course winner who has finished placed in his last four runs including when third in a classified event at Southwell (1m) in January; should be fine on this drop back in trip and he's respected back from a short break. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Couple of absences in recent times and he has regressed (well drawn when faring better in a soft-ground handicap last time); goes well here, though, and holds each-way claims. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins came on AW in 2023 when trained by Richard Hughes; has gone into freefall since and was last of 11 at Bath last month. |
12/1 |

11th 4 (9) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Well handicapped on last season's best forrm (AW) but he ended the year with a whimper and returns from a 135-day break with an inexperienced amateur booked. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
