29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
In good form on the AW at Lingfield this year until a below-par sixth on turf in 1m2f Windsor handicap 18 days ago; this course winner can bounce back here. |
14/1 |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Good start for Adam Kirby when a close third (of 12) in a 1m2f AW handicap at Lingfield in March (for today's rider); not so good back at Lingfield 13 days ago but returning to turf should be in his favour. |
6/1 |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Just 1-28 on AW but he went desperately close to doubling that tally in an amateur rider's race over C&D last month, only headed in the dying strides (first run for Adam Kirby); 2lb higher today; one to consider with new headgear tried. |

14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Dual Sandown winner last summer (1m, 1m2f), latterly off 5lb lower, who stays a deal further; 66-1 when only having stablemate Good Speed behind on his C&D comeback last month and may need some help from the handicapper. |

9th 5 (6) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
In good form in blinkers last summer, winning twice at Sandown (1m and 1m2f) before placed efforts at Epsom and Newmarket; has tended to need his reappearance in the past so perhaps one to watch with an eye to the future; cheekpieces on today. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
7lb lower than for his Newbury win last summer; second of 11 at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month but that has been followed by two heavy defeats; comes with risks attached. |
12/1 |

10th 1 (6) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
5lb lower than for his Newbury win last summer; second of 11 at Lingfield (1m, AW) on his penultimate start but ran poorly at Wolverhampton last week; revival not out of the question. |
6/1 |
|
9th 3 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Has gone close when placed twice this year, latest when second of 11 at Lingfield (1m, AW) last Monday; on a decent mark and is one to consider. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Strike-rate of 1-36 but not had many chances at 1m4f over which he was beaten 3l in a classified race on the AW last time; possible. |
5/1 |
|
4th 2 (3) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just one win from 35 starts and he finished eighth of nine in a classified event at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month; remains unexposed over this trip but he's hard to predict and others are more convincing. |
14/1 |
|
8th 2 (5) |
23rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 1-34 but his win was at Ffos Las last summer and he returned from a break with an encouraging fifth here (8.6f classified) last month; should benefit from that run and he could be dangerous back up in trip. |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Four wins came on turf later in the year and made it 0-16 on the AW when tailed off over 1m6f here five weeks ago; on a career-low mark now but it's hard to find any other positives. |
33/1 |
|
8th 8 (4) |
7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-15 on AW but not beaten far when seventh of 13 on comeback run here (1m3f) 16 days ago; steps back up in trip and down to a career-low mark so not out of this. |
12/1 |
|
7th 4 (8) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Veteran who is a four-time winner on turf; 0-14 on AW but was a good second at Chelmsford on most recent attempt in this sphere; absent since September. |

4th 3 (13) |
10th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Triple turf winner (1m2f) on fast and slow ground; got back on the scoresheet at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in March but he's not easy to predict and has been well held in last three runs; still 4lb higher than for his last win and he comes with risks attached back at this trip. |
