10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Veteran with 18 wins on his CV, including over C&D; last success was from the front at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in May but he's been well held in both runs since; bit to prove again but has possibilities if he can bounce back. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Missed a chunk of last year and has slid to a competitive mark for his current yard; just behind Southbank over C&D a month ago and is one to consider back in headgear (second-time blinkers). |
5/1 |

3rd 9 (10) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Down the field on first four starts for Chelsea Banham but fared better when fifth in a Wolverhampton classified (6f; heavily backed) last month; needs to build on that effort but it will be interesting to see whether he's strong in the betting again. |
6/1 |

5th 11 (2) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a C&D handicap in December 2024, recording an RPR of 71 in the process; unfancied and has finished down the field in four runs for Chelsea Banham this winter; eligible for this 0-50 classified as a result; a return to form is likely to be foretold by the betting. |

8th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
One-time useful sprinter but his powers are on the wane; showed he could still cut it at this level when a close fourth over C&D last month but he'll need the pace to collapse if he's to end his barren spell. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon off a 7lb higher mark; didn't run badly at Nottingham (5f, good) on penultimate start and a wide draw offers an excuse at Chester since. |
33/1 |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon off a 5lb higher mark; didn't run badly at Nottingham 12 days ago (5f, good) but he has a double-figure stall to contend with and could prove vulnerable. |
16/1 |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and has done all his winning over 6f/7f; inconsistent since last success; 0-12 over 5f and doesn't look the answer. |

6th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Multiple winner at 6f and about 7f but he failed to beat a rival on yard debut in 2023 and has been off since; many questions to answer. |
50/1 |

25th Jul 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Conditions won't be an issue and he's not on a bad mark but he was sold cheaply out of Brian Ellison's yard in May and he's landed the widest stall on his return from 168 days off. |

4th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
0-5 on turf but ran respectably over C&D nine days ago and ties in with Red Maids on that effort; still well treated on best AW form, though has a long losing sequence to quell (no success since early 2023). |
8/1 |

25th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well treated on best AW form but her losing run is mounting up and this belated return to grass presents a question mark; her turf record (four attempts) is far from solid. |
16/1 |

16th Jun 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Five good runs over 7f on AW this year and all four wins have been on an artificial surface; modest form on turf, on last run, which was back in June 2022, finishing 9l seventh of eight at Chester (7f, good); best watched. |

31st Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Six-time course winner (various ground) who runs off the same mark as when winning at Ffos Las in June; however, she's failed to shine here on her three runs this autumn and needs to turn things around. |

9st 6lb |
Versatile ground-wise and has won six times at this track; most recent win came off this mark at Ffos Las in June but she had a major blip over C&D (heavy) 20 days ago and needs to bounce back after that heavy defeat. |
