7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won two Class 6 handicaps at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) last month; ran creditably in a better race at Brighton two weeks ago and is still in form; minor money perhaps his best hope all the same. |
9/2 |

6th 5 (12) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Had been expensive to follow but he ended a losing run at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago when more positive tactics were deployed; unpenalised when bolting up back at Chepstow on Tuesday and he is effectively 11lb higher today; slower ground shouldn't be an issue but this will require a good deal more. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Pulled hard on his first two runs back from wind surgery (7f) and was much happier being allowed to stride on when easily winning an apprentice handicap over C&D last Sunday; no penalty and he can only look well treated now back in the groove. |

27th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Exposed 9yo but in a consistent run of form and bang there on good to soft and good in his last two races; go back far enough and he has competitive form on soft. |

3rd 7 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Veteran who arrives in good form, most recently finishing second of seven at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) 12 days ago; each-way shout off the same mark. |

2nd 7 (2) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
1lb out of the weights, but still 6lb lower than when gaining his sixth course success in this race last year; 0-19 since, but placed nine times and has winning form on soft ground; may be worth chancing. |

21st Sep 2026 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Best known as a Chepstow regular; yet to win this season but she's largely consistent and handles any ground; can make her presence felt under Oisin Murphy. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Acts on any ground and mainly consistent, again running with credit when third of eight here (7f, good to soft) on Saturday; has only managed to win one of her last 32 starts, though, and may prefer further than this now. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Acts on any ground, but the last nine of her ten wins have been over sprint trips; has had some close calls over C&D this summer but she's not easy to predict and has been well held in her last two runs; risks attached. |

27th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Effective on soft ground; only 1-28 and when second of 11 at Chepstow (7f; stays 1m) she was one of three to race in one group; still has a fair bit going for her. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Acts on fast and soft ground and she's effective at up to 1m; just one win from 27 starts but that came at this track (6f, good to firm) in June and she was runner-up here on her penultimate run; could be in the mix back up in trip. |
4/1 |

4th 9 (2) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
C&D winner in June (drop to 6f helped) off 5lb lower, who finished best of the rest, and just ahead of stablemate Some Nightmare, behind Arnaz here nine days ago; will do well to turn that round on the same terms. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice on the AW over 6f last December, the most recent coming off a mark 6lb higher than today's, but he hasn't been at his best in recent starts; tries 7f for just the third time with a visor now added. |
20/1 |

10th 12 (6) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
In good form on AW at the end of 2025, winning twice on AW; well handicapped on that form but his three turf runs this summer have been underwhelming; market can guide as to whether a revival is expected. |
20/1 |
|
5th 4 (10) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Seems happiest on Tapeta, albeit he's a course winner, and has still to prove he's up to this mark on turf; two poor efforts this summer, after a break, leave him some way down the pecking order. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Kempton win last autumn came when she was fresh, as did her Leicester victory three weeks ago (during a good spell for yard; gone quieter since); a 5lb rise for winning that small-field affair from the front will test her. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Achieved one of her best RPRs when back from a break at Thirsk last April (runner-up; 6f, good) and when starting out for George Baker following a break at Kempton in November (6f; won when sporting this headgear combination for the first time); not quite so effective in two runs since but yard is now red hot; respected; withdrawn after showing reluctance to post at Salisbury recently. |
11/4 |
|
3 (3) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Polytrack winner in a first-time tongue-tie last backend when returning from wind surgery and four months off; that was not the first time she'd gone well fresh and this six-month layoff is not offputting, but she was held at short prices in two runs off her revised mark. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On a career-low mark for a yard that doesn't send many here and he is worth tracking in the market; seems on the downgrade, though, and he hasn't run at beyond 5f since 2023; others make more obvious appeal. |
10/1 |
|
6th 2 (2) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
He's on a career-low mark but has finished down the field on his three starts since making an encouraging return to action at Ripon in May; needs to turn things around. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

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

Triple course winner who is on a dangerous mark but he's been out of sorts at big prices in his four runs this season; has plenty to prove and all of his nine wins have been over 6f. |
25/1 |
|
8th 7 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won this last year, one of three C&D victories, for Charlie Tucker off a 2lb higher mark in a small field; yard enjoying a better spell of late and this may have been the plan but he doesn't arrive in the same form as last year; the years might be catching up. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Conditions to suit and this veteran is likely to find more races this year; the evidence of his two runs in 2026 suggests he may need some more help from the handicapper before he is of renewed interest though. |

Multiple winner but she'll need to run better than she has in her last three races, and usually runs Chepstow well. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |

Three course wins over 5f/6f; just 2lb above her last winning mark and softening ground wouldn't be a problem, but she needs to do better than in her last two starts. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well backed and took advantage of a sliding mark when winning an uncompetitive small-field handicap off 3lb lower at Lingfield (turf) in June; always liked it here but this mark is as high as she's ever won off, so there's little margin for error. |

10th 6 (1) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Seven-time AW winner (7f-1m4f) when trained in Ireland, latterly in a Dundalk claimer in March; has failed to make the frame in 13 starts on grass, though, hence his much lower turf mark; lots to prove for his new yard. |
