7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Made the breakthrough in an apprentice handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) before a creditable second over C&D last month, both for today's rider; now 2lb higher but likely to give it another good go; cheekpieces added. |

0-8 before return to form for a narrow front-running win at Lingfield (7f, AW) six days ago; that was an apprentice race, when ridden by Oliver Hoodless, so he can race off same mark today, but there is more to prove on turf form. |

18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
On a lengthy losing run but scores good marks for his consistency this year; beaten only by a neck at Lingfield (7f) last month and also suited by this C&D; probably won't be far away. |

2nd 9 (11) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

1lb out of the weights, but still off the same mark as when beaten a neck over C&D in April; losing run is up to 18, though, so others make greater appeal. |

9st 1lb |
Began year with win off today's basement mark at Lingfield (7f) and was close third over that C&D two starts ago but she's not very consistent and has a poor record on Tapeta. |
16/1 |

7th 7 (3) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Was back off her last winning mark when beaten under a length into third of ten at Lingfield (7f, AW) this month, but both wins have come there whereas she has finished unplaced in all five starts on turf; others stronger. |

3rd 7 (10) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Both wins have come over C&D and is back off the same mark as for her successful reappearance here in January; out of her depth last time, but one to be interested in back at this level. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Made all to get off the mark over C&D in July off 2lb lower; beaten a short head after being caught out wide over C&D on Friday; must hold claims off the same mark. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 8 (9) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Made all to open account over C&D in July, his sixth start, but managed only midfield finishes on both starts last month (1m/7f) and needs to find something extra today. |
10/1 |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Made all and just held on at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) last month, but the longer trip seemed to find him out at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) five days ago; return to 7f a positive and respected. |

2-41 with last win at Lingfield (7f) last December off 1lb higher; has shown bits of form since and is down to a career-low mark so cannot be left out of calculations. |

5th 5 (10) |
10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Not beaten far in a turf handicap here last month and he wasn't beaten far as favourite over C&D ten days later; Billy Loughnane booked; drawn wide but not discounted. |

7th 4 (1) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Has a modest 2-39 strike-rate, but his latest win came over C&D in December and he is back off the same mark; worth a second look. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Didn't fire on Polytrack ten days ago but pipped a dual subsequent winner when opening account at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last month and is not yet fully exposed over this sort of trip; contender if quickly back on song. |
6/1 |
|
8th 8 (3) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Seemed to appreciate the stiff finish when off the mark at Leicester (7f, good to firm) four weeks ago, winning by a neck; only 1lb higher even though the runner-up is 2-2 since, but she has a much sharper track to deal with this time. |
6/1 |

1st 4 (3) |
14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Modest form in her three Irish races and no better in the two in Britain, although she has been more competitive with the switch to handicaps (5.7f/6f); needs to build on that with today's step back up in trip. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Well held at Lingfield (7f, AW) last time, but finished first and second over 1m here in his two starts prior to that; the win came on soft ground, but he is now 5lb higher so will need to find a bit extra. |
8/1 |

9th 2 (5) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
First and second in his last two starts on varying ground at Chepstow (1m) under regular rider Zoe Lewis, but there has to be a doubt over the suitability of a fast 7f like this back on the AW. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 7 (5) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
First six wins came on the AW, but he gained his first success on turf in a 0-55 handicap over C&D (soft) under Zoe Lewis (who knows him well) last month; drops to this level for the first time, but fast ground is a big question mark. |

8st 11lb |
Encouraging debut for this stable when beaten less than 2l into fourth of nine at Ffos Las (6f, good) last month, but didn't build on it at Lingfield (7f, AW) last time when behind two of these; may fare better back on turf. |

Six runs for four different stables, but made an encouraging debut for this one when beaten less than 2l into fourth of nine at Ffos Las (6f, good) a fortnight ago; shaped than as though the return to this trip might suit; one for the shortlist. |
