6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
6f AW win on his stable debut in November; added to his tally when seeing off five rivals at Chepstow 16 days ago (Class 4; 5f, good to soft); in deeper today. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Turf winner (5f, good) in Ireland who scored at Southwell (6f, AW) on his stable debut in November; that 40-1 success hasn't been built on but this represents a drop back in grade; not confidently ruled out. |

9st 12lb |
Infrequent winner who's tried in a third form of headgear after a few recent runs over 6f (two here); handicapper has given him a chance, dropping him another 3lb, but the cheekpieces will need to make a difference. |
12/1 |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |

Has recent Windsor form, having posted one of his best efforts this year when third over C&D on penultimate start; infrequent winner, however, and it's two years since his last domestic success. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
In good form on AW for Mike Murphy this winter, winning twice at Southwell (5f/6f); slowly away (blindfold removed late) at Goodwood two weeks ago; looks vulnerable at this level and goes without accessories this time. |
50/1 |
|
8th 4 (10) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Prevailed in reapplied hood at Southwell (6f) last time, taking AW record to 4-13; needs to prove he can transfer the form back to turf; only 1-10 in this sphere and is 7lb higher than last attempt. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won twice on Lingfield's AW track when trained by Harry Charlton; promising stable debut at Chester last month (met trouble from a poor draw) and although he couldn't land a blow at York last time, he didn't run poorly by any stretch; Oisin Murphy back in the saddle; slower than good would be a query. |
9/1 |
|
11th 5 (21) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice for Harry Charlton, both over 6f on Lingfield's AW track; didn't get the chance to show what he could do (repeatedly denied a clear run) when eighth of 12 on recent Chester return for new yard; left the impression he'd have been involved in the finish with more luck and enters calculations. |

Down in weights and step back in the right direction when second of nine at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; has handicapping scope if able to build on that. |
10/1 |

2nd 9 (10) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

Dropping down the weights but with some justification; likely to come good again at some stage but others appeal more today. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb
|
Improved for the switch to nurseries last summer, winning easily at Ffos Las and Doncaster (both 6f) before finishing off strongly for sixth in a much stronger race at York's Ebor meeting; better than ever when winning a C&D handicap in April and his subsequent fifth of 19 at Ascot was in a Class 4; could still rate higher; key player despite a wider draw than ideal. |
9/2 |
|
5th 12 (9) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
More exposed than most but he won third handicap when making all at Wolverhampton (7f, AW; just held on) four weeks ago; also won twice at 6f on sound turf so these conditions should be no problem, but a 4lb rise might be. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Two of her six turf wins have been here, one over this distance; hasn't really finished off her races this year but is now 3lb below her last winning mark so cannot be discounted. |
11/2 |
|
6th 3 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Six-time sprint winner who handles any ground; has faded in both runs this season but she's well treated on her best form last year including a front-running win at Windsor last summer; one to keep an eye on. |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Five of his six wins have been on the AW, the most recent at Kempton in February when completing a hat-trick; sole win on turf came at Doncaster (good to soft) and he posted a respectable effort there 24 days ago; drops in grade with claims. |
6/1 |

5th 10 (12) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
C&D winner two years ago who tends to stick to the AW these days; back up in the weights following a hat-trick in the winter and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort when last seen five weeks ago. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
All turf races at sprint trips on good to firm and good, vigorously ridden when making all at Windsor last August from one who went on to better things; a similarly useful effort when runner-up on Kempton AW in October but he lacks a recent run and has a new trip to contend with. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
His first three starts saw him well beaten over 7f but he has not looked back since dropped to 6f, winning seven times and placed on his other three runs; could only manage second at Chelmsford five weeks ago but the horse to beat him is now rated 17lb higher and that shouldn't be used as evidence he is in the handicapper's grip; more to prove back on turf and at a new trip but few arrive in better form. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 7 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Justified favouritism in Class 5 event at Kempton last time, taking record this year to 3-3 and overall strike-rate over 6f on AW to 7-9; he is 1-1 at Chelmsford; progressive sort who brings excellent stats and commands respect upped further in grade. |

Has a consistent record, latterly winning at Bath (5.7f) and second at Hamilton (6f) since switched to handicaps, both on good ground; solid. |
9/2 |

2nd 6 (5) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

Gelded/off five months before taking a step forward to make a winning start in handicaps at Bath (5.5f) last month; up 7lb but this son of Showcasing looks to have more to offer; likely player. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Progress on AW this year features three wins; failed to transfer the form back to turf last time, only midfield at Hamilton; bit to prove. |
12/1 |
|
7th 4 (14) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Enjoyed an excellent winter on the AW, scoring three times at 6f, and comes here on the back of a good third of ten in 6f Lingfield handicap 19 days ago when not enjoying the smoothest of passages; can play a prominent role again back on turf. |
