14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Late-maturing 8yo who scored on seasonal debut at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) in May and posted another good effort when third at Ffos Las (6f, good) in June; remains on career-high mark but probably won't be far away. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Consistent and probably a career-best to win after a break at Chepstow (5f, good to firm; fine on softer); only 2lb higher so has to be taken seriously. |
7/2 |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Largely consistent 6yo who gained last season's win at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) in September; subsequent defeat on heavy ground there can be overlooked but he makes his reappearance from a fairly tough mark. |

Has won four times over C&D but has shown little in four starts since returning from a 685-day absence last month. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Four-time C&D winner who finished second in this race in 2022; came back from a 685-day absence at the start of this month and that run, alongside the two that followed, don't suggest he's retained that old ability; risky at present. |
33/1 |

19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Four-time C&D winner; well handicapped on old form but returned from long absence with two low-key runs this summer, more recently when last of seven over 6f here on Thursday; visor refitted; revival needed. |

8st 10lb |
Two of her three wins have come at this track and on soft ground; she hasn't beaten a rival in her two starts this season but they were on quick ground and she could prove a different proposition following the recent rain; handy mark and rider's claim useful too. |

10th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Inconsistent maiden who achieved little in sole outing this season; good chance on peak handicap effort but comes with risk. |
14/1 |
|
10th 7 (8) |
24th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Nine-race maiden; went desperately close at Windsor last June (5f, good to firm) but that hasn't proved to be a springboard to better things; this is likely to be the slowest ground she's tackled and she looks best watched back from 225 days off. |

17th Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Triple C&D winner for Robyn Brisland in 2021 and came good for current stable at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in June, having reportedly benefited from the reapplication of a hood; reverted to her free-going tendencies when midfield on consecutive outings without a hood last month, though, and the headgear is again missing here. |
12/1 |

6th 1 (13) |
26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Gained two of his six wins over this C&D, the latter in June; versatile ground-wise and seemingly on a workable mark but didn't fire here last week (raced too freely) and is unreliable. |
10/1 |

19th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
0-21 but regularly running to an RPR in the 70s over the winter; form has dipped more recently but he's been given a big chance by the handicapper and could have a big run in him from the inside stall. |
9/1 |
|
6th 2 (6) |
4th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
20-race maiden; not beaten far when sixth of eight at Windsor in July (5f, good to firm), but soundly beaten last two starts; now tried in blinkers (fair effort in first-time visor); others stronger. |
10/1 |

10th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Losing run is now 16 and slow starts continue to hold him back, even when sent over 6f; a stiff 5f is manageable but he's risky from a win perspective. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
3rd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Has more ability than most with his sort of mark but he isn't easy to win with; this track suits and Laura Coughlan has won on him a couple of times, so he is one to consider, especially given his penultimate effort was promising. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 9 (2) |
26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Dual course winner last season (5f/6f) and ran big race in defeat over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago; pretty versatile regarding ground and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven wins include two at this track over 6f (good to soft/good to firm) but her last success came in October 2024; beat only one rival home on her reappearance here over 6f last month and now drops back in trip on her return to classified company. |
10/1 |

6th 6 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Mudlark who starts her campaign off a lowly mark; she has a nine-month absence to overcome, however, and that hasn't been the time to catch her in previous seasons. |
14/1 |
