11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Two of his six wins have come over C&D; can go well fresh so his low-key return to action at Yarmouth last month was disappointing; down in class and has the assistance of Henry Callan in the saddle so he could leave that well behind. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Course winner who had irregular form in 2025 but he only just failed on his reappearance at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last spring and he's 4lb lower now; on the cards that he'll return with a good effort. |

6th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

On a losing run but ran respectably both starts this term, close third of six at Lingfield latest; that was 1m2f but he has a mixed record over this far; ground softer than good would be a big worry. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with success at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March and backed it up with a good third of 12 in another 9.5f handicap there since; this C&D scorer can go well again off the same mark. |
5/1 |

3rd 4 (12) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His first seven wins were all gained over 1m4f/1m3f, with the latest of those last October, but he then made all under Olivia Tubb in a six-runner race over C&D 13 days ago; that win was by a neck and he's been raised 2lb since, but a wide draw complicates today's task. |
12/1 |

1st 5 (3) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has gained all wins over 1m3f/1m4f, including at Southwell (narrowly) in October when last seen; the 8yo is still competitively treated on historical data but has something to prove back down in trip. |

Five wins to his name and he's 8lb lower than for the last of them (March 2023); hasn't beaten a rival in three runs this year; hopes pinned on the drop to Class 6 company sparking a revival. |

2nd Sep 2023 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Consistent dual purpose mare who was probably not ideally suited by the good to soft ground when respectable fourth at Stratford (2m) last month; on a good mark now and can go well if the rain stays away; usual tongue-tie removed. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
C&D winner whose losing run is up to 17 but he had dropped 14lb below his last winning mark when beaten less than a length into third of seven here four weeks ago; respected if building on that. |

3rd 4 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner who is versatile ground-wise; well handicapped on best form last season but he was out of sorts in the autumn and needs a major revival after six months off. |

2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Versatile regarding the ground but a respectable effort at Brighton (1m, good to firm) in July has been followed by two lesser ones and although temptingly treated, he needs much more for the adding of a tongue-tie. |

Knows how to win as he showed when successful from four rivals at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last month, but he was allowed to dictate there and didn't back it up at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) a week ago (has won over that C&D); needs to bounce back. |

Recorded his sixth win when making all to justify favouritism off reduced mark at Wolverhampton (1m6f) 18 days ago; this is a deeper race but he's only 2lb higher than last time and has won over C&D in the past; could be a major force again. |
