22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Unable to justify favouritism on his stable debut at Wolverhampton in November; excuse next time and although he ran respectably at Wolverhampton last month, it wasn't a run that conclusively proved his stamina for 7f; now tried in an eyeshield. |
8/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Hinted at a revival in latest start and is attractively treated assuming he builds on that effort; gained sole handicap success off 5lb higher (in 2024). |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Close third off this reduced mark at Brighton (6f, good to firm) last month and he can't be discounted; however, this 8yo has been inconsistent this season and was soundly beaten back at Brighton most recently. |
14/1 |
|
8th 7 (6) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
A bit in and out lately, but having dropped 5lb below his last winning mark he finished a close third of 13 here (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; return to this trip will be no problem given his record over C&D reads 3121351123; high on list. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Still a maiden after ten runs but has been placed twice on good to firm ground this spring (6f/5f) and may not have been suited by good to soft when slightly disappointing last time; this trip could be ideal; no surprise if he features. |
7/2 |
|
6th 4 (1) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Yet to score but he ran respectably on his last two starts, finishing third at Leicester (6f) last month and again at Windsor (5f, also good to firm; yet to race on slower than good) a fortnight ago; return to this trip can aid his cause and he looks the best of three chances for Tony Carroll. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Three-time C&D winner who raced on the 'wrong' side of the course when fifth behind Fletcher's Flight here nine days ago; 5lb better off today, with Myla Coppins taking off another 7lb, and there's every chance he turns things round. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
A three-time C&D scorer (twice last summer) and this veteran got back on track with third of seven in 5.5f Bath handicap 25 days ago; a likely player eased 1lb returned here. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Bagged a pair of 6f Wolverhampton handicaps for Ivan Furtado last autumn; ended his time with that yard below his best though and he's fared no better in 5f/6f Chepstow handicaps for his new handler recently. |
25/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
A fair 6f scorer for Ivan Furtado in 2025; changed hands for 2,000gns before coming in just tenth for new yard in 6f handicap here 16 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
80-1 for a classified at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) in July and made all; big majority of his performances, however, make him very hard to fancy. |
50/1 |
|
9 (10) |
1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Made all to cause 80-1 surprise in a classified at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) in July but he was well beaten next time and last of six at Chepstow (5f, good) 43 days ago. |
16/1 |
