31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
All ground seems to come alike to him and he gained his second C&D success (good to firm) last month, but a 4lb rise appeared to anchor him in his two outings since; may need the returning visor to perk him up a bit. |
5/1 |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who was well held at Chepstow last time, but that was a Class 4 event and he won that track (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; remains well treated on his old form and has claims if he can bounce back on this drop back in grade; acts on fast and soft ground. |

Exposed but very consistent and deserved to snap a losing streak over C&D recently when racing prominently and keeping on; back up 4lb. |

9st 9lb |
Capable at the right level and she ran right up to her best when a close third at Kempton 18 days ago (6f), not aiding her cause by hanging left in the closing stages; good chance if she can keep straighter this time. |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Took advantage of a good opportunity over C&D last month but came up short off higher marks twice since; conditions will be fine but others are more appealing. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Beat a next-time-out winner when scoring at Ffos Las last month and probably didn't have an ideal track position when fourth at Sandown (also 5f, soft) on Friday; respected if she makes a quick reappearance here. |
5/1 |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 4lb higher mark; first success since when beating four rivals at Ffos Las two weeks ago (5f, soft); this is deeper but a 2lb rise is manageable; more appealing than most. |

Four-time winner, including when springing a 22-1 surprise in this race last year off 1lb lower; good second at Bellewstown in August over 1m; gone completely off the boil since but drop back in trip a positive at least. |

Far from solid on 2023 form for new stable and he's on a three-year losing spell; opposed. |

Ended his time with Jane Chapple-Hyam quietly and he finished down the field on last month's stable debut at Wolverhampton; down in the weights but with plenty to prove. |

5th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Often leads; dual C&D winner who has dropped a fair way in the weights since her Southwell win last December; recent efforts on turf and C&D haven't approached that level, though, so she has it to prove for now. |
10/1 |

20th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Multiple turf/AW winner but well beaten both starts following five-month break, including over C&D last time; still to show soft ground is ideal and, although Oisin Murphy rides, others appeal more. |
6/1 |
