2nd 3 (16) |
2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
In a good vein of form, winning twice on Lingfield's AW during the summer and second to Tex in amateurs' race over 1m here (also placed twice over C&D) last time, collared late having briefly gone clear; the fact there was a long way back to the third has resulted in him being raised to a clear career-high mark but still merits respect in his current mood. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 (1) |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Has won two of his last four races, with the latest at Lingfield (visor remover; 1m, AW) quite decisive at the finish; carries no penalty and he's 6lb well in; 0-9 on turf but effective on the surface. |

1st 2 (3) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

Course winner over 7f three starts back off 9lb lower; went close at Southwell (7f, AW) when ridden by Jude Fernandes next time but blew his chance by hanging right over this C&D three days ago; visor is removed and he needs to bounce back. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
All four wins have been on the AW, the last three at Kempton, most recently over 1m in June; another good AW run when second of nine over 1m at Lingfield 23 days ago but has a career-high mark on likely ground he's yet to prove he handles (all three turf runs on good/good to firm). |

2nd 4 (4) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
All four wins have been on the AW, the last three at Kempton, most recently over 1m in June when last seen off a 4lb lower mark; went close here over 7f in April and can be competitive on his return from a 76-day break. |

10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Justified favouritism in a C&D handicap in April off 5lb lower; beaten a nose at Lingfield later that month and then met trouble in running at Ripon last week; should remain competitive. |

17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven of his eight wins have been on the AW, the most recent last November; on a realistic mark and recent Lingfield run wasn't too shoddy on the back of an absence. |
14/1 |

4th 8 (2) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Seven of his eight wins have been on the AW, the most recent coming at Wolverhampton (8.5f) last November off a 3lb higher mark; shaped as if in form when seventh of 12 there in a 0-80 in March but he's been absent since; considered. |

Seven wins on the AW; consistent in the main and ran okay over the 8.6f here ten days ago, leaving the impression that this longer trip is worth another go. |

10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Getting on for two years since his sole success; runner-up over C&D in July but that has been followed by two lesser efforts; drawn widest and others look stronger. |
7/1 |
|
5th 9 (8) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
1-19; has tumbled in the weights since joining this stable from Ireland and ran a solid race when runner-up behind Dannick here over 7f last time; latest effort can be forgiven (raced wide) but he isn't certain to appreciate the step back up in trip. |
25/1 |

8th 8 (7) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Tumbled down the weights since coming over from Ireland and has found his level now, finishing best of the rest behind a well-handicapped winner over C&D last time; 7lb claimer James Glennon has ridden a couple of winners this summer. |

Multiple winner on turf/AW but his form has dipped since a July double over 7f on good to firm; others are preferred . |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Went up the weights for back-to-back 7f wins on turf in July and held since despite Toby Moore claiming his allowance; Billy Loughnane takes over but could be vulnerable off current mark. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Somewhat mixed this year but he ran two good races at Sandown in midsummer (1m, good to firm) when the visor was discarded, putting up stout resistance against Marsh Benham in July; not so good since but he's weighted to reverse those placings if he's on his game. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Yet to win for Jim Boyle but he has finished second on three occasions this year; disappointed as favourite at Lingfield (1m, AW) last week; had form on testing ground in France. |
5/1 |
|
7th 6 (6) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 15 starts came at Vichy (7f, very soft) when trained in France; has returned to form since having the headgear removed, finishing runner-up at Sandown (1m, good to firm) on two occasions, including when narrowly ahead of Great Blasket last time; makes the shortlist. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Having dropped down the weights she returned to form with a close second at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) a fortnight; this course winner is fine at today's trip and can be in the shake-up if backing up that latest effort. |
9/1 |

2nd 3 (7) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

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. |
