1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Just 2-18 over hurdles but looked back in prime form at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) last month, winning 13-runner handicap by 3l, and a subsequent 5lb rise is not excessive. |

Not at his best on his two hurdling starts towards end of last year but now 1lb lower than when winning at Ludlow (2m, good) last spring and won't mind what the weather does. |

Returned from long absence with three very underwhelming runs in low-grade Flat handicaps this year and is 12lb out of the weights for this first hurdling start since February 2023; has too much to prove. |

Dual-purpose sort got off the mark over hurdles at Cork in March (2m) but has been unplaced since then and needs a major return to form. |

Handicapped to win but he's rather been going through the motions this summer; has form at this track but over further and he may be ideally suited by more of a test. |

15th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Brighton specialist who is 0-22 on AW surfaces but does act on Tapeta; not beaten far on her last four starts and is an each-way player again. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (3) |
11th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won four times at Brighton in 2022; 0-13 last year and only fourth on her return to action on Saturday; conditions suit and she's capable at this level but she'll need to up her game if she's to gain her first AW win at the 22nd attempt. |
5/1 |

4th 8 (2) |
6th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has done all his winning on turf but lost out only by a head in 1m2f Polytrack handicap at Chelmsford in November and his fourth over that C&D a few days later was also a decent effort; today's trip-and-surface combination will also suit; likely contender. |

9st 10lb |
Won three consecutive times in refitted blinkers last June/July, most recently off today's mark over C&D (good to firm), but made a low-key reappearance three weeks ago and needs that run to have brought him on. |
8/1 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |

Bagged a hat-trick (including over C&D) last summer and he signed off for 2025 with a solid third in 1m6f Wolverhampton handicap in October; has won off a break too. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Completed a hat-trick at about 1m4f this summer and probably matched all that form when second over 1m4f here four weeks ago; should be fine over this far and rates a solid contender. |

Longstanding maiden who's with her third yard; not a bad effort back in the visor last time but she didn't see out 2m in one try in Ireland and stamina is the question mark again. |

Inconsistent 17-race maiden but she went very close in a first-time visor here (1m2f, good) last Monday and the first three pulled clear in that race; has leading claims if she can repeat that form and she looks worth another try at this trip. |
