5th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
7f winner here in August and next run (fifth at 9-4) possibly came too soon after that; returning to 1m will not inconvenience him, stall 2 should be ideal for a front-runner and he wears cheekpieces for the first time; one to consider. |
12/1 |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Missed more than 18 months prior to a few lesser efforts in the spring, but has found his level again; enjoyed the run of the race when winning narrowly on Polytrack last Wednesday but set to go well again under a penalty for a yard in good nick. |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Triple winner (turf/AW), who got back on track with a near miss over 7f at Kempton (Polytrack) last month; back up 2lb in the weights, but he was as good as ever last time and is respected back in this sphere. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three wins include one here (1m) in April off a 2lb lower mark; below that level on turf in two starts since and drops back to 7f for the first time since his debut, which would be a concern. |
7/1 |
|
6th 3 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Two wins this year came on the AW, but his sole turf win came over this trip on good to firm ground; may be best to forgive his latest Chester performance and a possible if back on song. |

Just one win to his name from 16 starts; best effort this year when third of 11 here (7f) last month; down in class but minor money perhaps his best hope. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 11 (4) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won a soft-ground 6f maiden at Chepstow last September but he's struggled in four handicaps since, most recently when fading inside the final furlong over this trip at Southwell two weeks ago; others preferred. |
20/1 |

7th 8 (12) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Run exclusively in sprints since handicapping, latterly over 5f; finished last in two runs back this season and has plenty to prove, including stamina. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual winner (7f/1m) who has posted some good efforts at this track, including when runner-up over this C&D in March off a 4lb higher mark; two solid runs since joining this stable and has to be considered with first-time visor replacing cheekpieces. |
4/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Useful 7f and 1m form in 2026, including when fifth in a higher grade at Sandown (first-time cheekpieces) in June on yard debut; however he's won just once in the last three years and although he showed useful form in a C&D novice as a 3yo, his AW runs since have come on Polytrack; shade to prove. |
9/1 |
|
5th 11 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Losing run is mounting up but he ran respectably over C&D most recently (final start for Charles Hills) and ties in with unexposed Raammee on that form; possibilities off same mark, provided he takes well to first-time headgear; remains with same owner. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Dual 6f AW winner, most recently at Wolverhampton last April off a 4lb higher mark; well beaten on turf on her first two outings this year but she did run respectably on the AW 12 days ago; cheekpieces added; suspicion she may be at her best over 6f. |
9/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Couple of absences since winning a 6f handicap here last spring off a 2lb higher mark; the return to Tapeta is an obvious plus point but she's very hit and miss, and will need to improve somewhat on this season's two efforts after two months off. |
12/1 |
|
9th 2 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Both wins at 6f on the AW, either side of a winter break as a 2yo and 3yo; seemingly had stamina limitations back over 7f in the autumn and, while she should come on for her recent reappearance at Newmarket, this is a stiff track on which to prove her staying power. |

16th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Can front-run; now 1lb lower than for last August's Chepstow success (7f, good to soft) but he's been below his best in four starts this year, including at Kempton 12 days ago; drops back to 6f for the first time since his 2yo days. |
13/2 |
|
8th 11 (9) |
4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Front-runner; 5lb lower than for his near miss at Lingfield (7f) in December; not at best in two runs back from a break but the type to come good again soon; perhaps that will be in a race that will feature fewer pace influences than this one. |
14/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
0-9 on the AW but he has gone close on two occasions, including when beaten a head at Lingfield (7f) in December; below his best on his next two outings and was last of seven at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month; needs to take a step forward. |

9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time course winner, most recently off 2lb higher last November; however, last few efforts leave a doubt over his current form; this 8yo needs to prove resurgent. |
14/1 |
|
7th 10 (7) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Can lead; all eight wins on the AW, five over this C&D; faded into midfield having been drawn wide here in May and soft ground can be given as an excuse for failing to beat a rival at Goodwood (1m) two months ago; could go well back on this surface. |

9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Successful, including over C&D, for previous yards; current mark reflects a general decline in his form for current stable; best watched unless the market suggests a turnaround is likely. |
7/1 |

8th 9 (12) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Dual course winner over 1m; unable to kick on from his stable debut last year but he did run okay when fourth at Newmarket (7f, good) on reappearance in June; may improve on that first outing in 226 days. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
He's had a regressive campaign but returned to form off a reduced mark with clear second over C&D (soft) recently, behind one who easily followed up; versatile ground-wise; can have a big say if backing up that latest run. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 6 (9) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Thrown in on his 3yo best, notably a 6f win at Ascot (good to soft) 12 months ago when 11lb higher; 2026 campaign has been underwhelming though and others look stronger for the win. |
20/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Four-time winner (5f/6f) but he's 0-8 since joining this stable; below his best in recent starts but now drops down in grade, albeit with stamina to prove for this longer trip; others more persuasive. |

10st 0lb |
Five-time winner on turf but 0-13 on the AW; won at Bellewstown (5f, soft) last October but he's struggled since, including in three starts for this stable (5f-1m); drops in grade but best watched. |
40/1 |

10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
He took advantage of a reduced mark when beating Silver Trumpet over C&D (good to soft) last Monday; didn't look to be totally handling the camber that day and effectively has a 4lb penalty to shoulder; still respected. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Just 1-18 on turf and is hard to predict but he finished a fair third over this trip at Brighton (good to firm) last Sunday; could be dangerous if he can back that up but he still has something to prove on slow ground. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Four wins from 37 starts, the most recent at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in December; got behind early at Southwell last time after short of room leaving the stalls but then kept on into seventh; each-way contender with refitted cheekpieces replacing regular hood. |
8/1 |

7th 2 (9) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Seen much more often on turf than the AW but he did win on sand at Chelmsford (7f) last December and has since shown useful course form over 6f and 7f; down the field at Doncaster most recently but would have a squeak if back to his C&D form in March. |
10/1 |
|
7th 10 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Kept fairly busy in the last 12 months and he supplemented a 6f Windsor win (good) in September by scoring over 7f at Yarmouth (good to soft) in October and at Chelmsford (AW) in December; has held his form with some solid efforts this spring and he could make a serious impact if this sets up for his closing style. |
