9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Veteran; all 12 wins have been over 5f and is ideally suited by plenty of give in the ground; hasn't been out since Doncaster win in March (5f, good to soft); has plenty in his favour and should go well again. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has won four of his last seven starts and the latest defeat at Chelmsford was no backward step; however, his mark has taken a hit and this 9yo is returning from a lengthy break; fine on all ground. |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has won three of his last five starts including a game success at Catterick (6f, good) last Saturday; only 2lb higher back on AW and he's a big player again in hat-trick bid. |

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. |

21st Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
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. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner; should be well treated now but that has been the case for a while and he keeps finding one or two too strong; conditions no problem and likely to give his running again; stable also run Savannah Smiles. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Losing run up to 13, but running well in defeat lately and fared best of those on his side when fourth of nine at Chepstow (5f, soft) 11 days ago; record over C&D reads 314; player. |
4/1 |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |

C&D winner who arrives in decent nick, leading long way when third of five over C&D eight days ago; must enter calculations off the same mark. |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive gelding who can pull hard and has hung left a couple of times since returned to turf, including here; most racing over 5f and his record over this trip is hard to enthuse about, for all that this is easier snd he's in a new headgear combination. |
20/1 |
|
5th 2 (4) |
23rd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Not as good as he was and although that is reflected in his handicap mark, others bring more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
27th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
3-25; most recent win came off 16lb higher at Goodwood (5f, good) in August 2023; pulled hard at Chelmsford (5f, AW) when last seen in February; refused to enter stalls in March and returns to turf with hood reapplied. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Multiple winner in previous seasons; 0-11 this year but is proving consistent, close second returned to AW most recently; remains 1lb below last winning mark; in the mix. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of 12 of his 92 starts, the latest success coming at Chelmsford in October off 1lb higher; several good runs to his name this time around and Billy Loughnane replaces a 7lb claimer today; one to take seriously. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Losing run up to 13 and he finished over 4l behind Sonic Si when fifth of seven at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday; 1-1 here but he needs to do better than that latest effort. |

In good form this year without managing to put his head in front; eligible for weaker races than this though and could prove vulnerable. |

Saw his run of good form come to an end when eighth in 6f Southwell handicap 13 days ago; this C&D scorer is the sort to bounce back though. |
