13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has record of 4-10 at Chester and he won this race in 2023; no joy in Bahrain last winter and has mixed record since returned to Britain but he won at Haydock (1m2f, good) in June and was only just caught at Chelmsford last time; remains feasibly treated on his best form and he's respected back at this track. |

7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Ended a long losing run when scoring off a reduced mark at Haydock (1m2f, good) in June but he dropped right out in his follow-up bid there two weeks later; now drops back in trip but he's not easy to predict and has had only three AW runs in his 42-race career; others preferred. |
13/2 |

8st 10lb |
Snapped a long losing run and capitalised on a reduced mark over 10.4f here (good) a fortnight ago; enjoyed the run of the race in front and it might be the case this longer trip stretches him nowadays, but he did it nicely last time and remains well treated on old form back up 6lb; not discounted. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Infrequent winner but he's on a dangerous mark and has reached the frame at Nottingham (8.3f, good) and Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in his last two starts; now drops back in trip but he should get a good pace to aim at and is not ruled out. |
14/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Has an each-way shout, having shown signs of a revival with placed effort at Nottingham (1m) last Saturday returned to turf; whether he can win is another matter, with his strike-rate still poor. |
5/1 |

3rd 9 (4) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |

Only one win since June 2022 and has beaten just two rivals in his last five starts (either side of wind surgery); mark has bottomed out now and he has a lot to prove; cheekpieces back on. |

10yo with a 9-57 record on turf compared to 0-9 (three seconds) on AW; still a force on turf last season (won off 5lb higher) and 2025 reappearance was okay but he took a backward step at Ripon next time. |

Not the most consistent on the Flat but useful on her day and three wins to her name, including over 1m4f at 2024 Galway festival; hurdling debut and has been off since November. |

Similar mark off which she won over 1m4f at Galway over a year ago but struggling to recapture that level of form, with last two runs very disappointing; this only her second run on the AW. |

All six wins on turf but running well on AW lately and probably did well to last for as long as he did when third of 12 at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) ten days ago; races off the same mark and should go well again. |

8st 13lb |
Dual course scorer, including this trip off 10lb higher in autumn 2022; hasn't fired lately so will need first-time blinkers (which are added to regular tongue-tie) to have a revitalising effect. |
25/1 |

4th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Dual Wolverhampton winner (8.6f/9.5f) who has dropped 7lb lower than when last successful, but his efforts since returning from a lengthy absence last May raise doubts as to whether he can take advantage. |

0-20 since winning on his debut in 2021 and needs to prove he can get the job done, but he's gone close at Ripon (1m, good) and Chester (7.5f, good) this month and is also effective on fast ground; could be bang there. |

In good form last month, finishing second at Leicester (demoted to fourth due to interference) and close fifth at Ayr; might not be far away but he's 0-20 since winning on debut in 2021; has to prove he can get the job done. |

Arrives in great form, having won three of his four turf starts this season, two of those here over 7f and the latest over C&D; up another 4lb but looked like he had a bit more up his sleeve last time; big player. |
9/4 |

1st 5 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Thrives here - form figures 72111 - twice accounting for Vince Le Prince over 7f last month; weakened at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago, but this track is a much better fit, and he's unlikely to be hindered by rain; still fairly treated off 67 based on historic form. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Veteran who has been back in fine form of late, landing a pair of 7f handicaps at Catterick; up another 3lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood. |

Fairly useful on Flat for previous yard; respectable second in big field at Wincanton (1m7f, good) on the latest of two attempts over hurdles; now goes in tongue-tie; should be capable of better still under this code and is one for the shortlist. |

Form figures of 122 on last three visits to Wolverhampton, at 9.4f/1m4f last October-December; well beaten on turf last twice (cheekpieces were added at Chester last time) but the return to this track sparks interest. |

9.5f AW win last October and runner-up in two of his four runs since, including over this trip; apprentice good value for a 5lb claim in this company but he's been well beaten in two turf runs (both on slower than good); rated 6lb lower on grass as a consequence. |
