27th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Bumper and four-time Flat (1m2f/1m4f) winner who is ideally suited by fast ground; respectable fourth on AW when last seen in February and he's on a workable mark back over hurdles; needs close look for in-form yard. |
7/1 |

4th 2 (4) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Out of the frame in all four starts since returned to the AW, but his fifth of ten over 1m2f here in December suggested that all may not be lost; now 6lb lower than for that effort and 8lb lower than when last successful; interesting. |
11/1 |

Now 6lb lower than for his two turf wins last May, but he's finished down the field in last six starts and last three have been at this track (1m2f/1m4f); others preferred. |

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. |

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. |

Major improver in 2023 with four wins (1m2f-12.4f) for Sir Mark Prescott, and he wasn't far off his best when third of 13 over 1m4f here on stable debut in December; shapes as if he'll stay this longer trip; respected. |

3rd 1 (1) |
20th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Major improver with four middle-distance wins for Sir Mark Prescott (three on AW) since June; tailed off at Epsom on final run for that trainer but was reported to have had an irregular heartbeat and he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; changed hands for 20,000gns in October and needs watching in the market on stable debut. |

Recorded his 12th AW win when scoring at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month but he flopped under a penalty there eight days later; has bit to prove again after that heavy defeat but he has won three of his last seven starts and is capable of bouncing back. |

Beat a serial loser of late over C&D three weeks ago, taking Hector Crouch's record on him to 2-2; 4lb rise is of no great concern considering he's been rated much higher in the past; handy draw. |

Nine of his 12 wins have been on AW, the latest from 5lb higher at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in March; not beaten far into fourth of 13 at Brighton (1m, soft) last month and he has to be of interest in this field. |

Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW which has dominated his career; best turf ratings were on last two outings but his turf form still needs improvement. |

Something amiss on sole start here (2024); very busy since and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW (which has dominated career) and his turf form needs improvement. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 32y Class 3 |

Prominent racer who posted four wins in the second half of last year, including a C&D defeat of Charging Thunder on good; suffered a heavy defeat on AW last time but it was in a strong Good Friday race at Newcastle and Charging Thunder was once again behind him; a bold show seems likely in these much calmer waters back on turf. |

Was snapping a losing run when prevailing narrowly at Lingfield (1m4f) but then followed up over the same C&D ten days ago, defying a 4lb penalty without being overly pressed; only 2lb higher for this despite another penalty, but stamina for 2m is unproven. |

Five Flat wins in 2024, culminating in this race (1lb lower today); well suited by ploughing through the mud and best result this term came on soft, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; ran respectably here on good to soft last time and a bold show seems likely if he's in the mud today. |
