26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Course winner (extended 1m3f) on last April's reappearance; ended that campaign with some lesser efforts but he returns on a feasible mark and can't be discounted. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Five-time turf winner, the latest over an extended 1m3f at Bath in April; finished second in four of his next five starts but his form has dipped the last twice; should be fully effective on AW and he's one to consider. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
The last three of her seven wins were at Goodwood and she has never won on worse than good ground, but she was a respectable third on heavy at this meeting last year; seems flattered by margin beaten in Listed race on penultimate start but she followed that with a handicap second at same track. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 9 (3) |
12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Her last three wins have come here (good/good to firm) and the latest was over C&D in August; seems versatile ground-wise; outclassed in C&D Listed race last time and could play a leading role back in a handicap. |
8/1 |
|
10th 8 (8) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Successful off a mark of 70 in C&D handicap on penultimate start, taking Goodwood record to 3-4; return to this venue is a plus but she has easily the worst chance at the weights upped in class. |

26th May 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sent off favourite for a Thirsk novice event on her second start but finished well beaten; 2-1 second favourite for her handicap debut at Southwell (1m4f) last month but finished last of the four runners, albeit beaten under 3l (flashed tail); dropped 3lb and still capable of better but she does need to pull out more to win. |
9/2 |

4th 3 (1) |
9th Apr 2023 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Uncompetitive in her qualifying runs (under varying tactics) but in decent races and she's a well-bred filly who now goes handicapping off a basement mark; could be dangerous. |

17th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
His win came off 2lb higher here (9.4f) in May but he's not matched that since and has been well below form in his last two runs (1m2f); record now stands at 1-26 and has plenty to prove again with regular headgear removed. |
12/1 |

9th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
21st attempt when off the mark on Wolverhampton Tapeta (9.4f) in May off 2lb higher; has raced freely, so perhaps recent ventures over 1m2f have not been ideal, but he does not look the percentage call. |

17th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |

Record is 1-16; respectable fourth in C&D handicap most recently; needs a bigger effort to win on these terms. |

3rd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won off 5lb higher at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) last August but she has mixed record since and was beaten 18l at Brighton (1m4f, good) last month; blinkers now return and she comes with risks. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
C&D winner who resumed from five months off with a solid fourth of eight in 1m4f Lingfield handicap a week ago; not out of things off the same mark. |
10/1 |
|
4th 8 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Just low-level hurdle form on his last two starts; last year's Flat best, which came over C&D, would give him a squeak but others look stronger for win purposes. |

7th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |

Three-time winner on the Flat (1m-1m4f) but always in low-grade handicaps; will need to take very well to hurdling to pose a threat here. |

14th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won a 1m classified event at Lingfield in January but she hasn't really progressed since; didn't run badly in this headgear behind Daisy Roots nine days ago, without suggesting she would be coming out on top. |
33/1 |
|
8th 12 (2) |
5th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Sprang a 33-1 surprise over C&D on her handicap debut in January; no progress since and although she ran creditably on turf here eight weeks ago, the addition of cheekpieces isn't enough to tempt today. |
16/1 |
