26th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Multiple winner and there have been some good efforts in his losing run of 16, though not of late; others appeal more. |

Gained two of his seven wins over this C&D; below form lately but endured a wide trip when last in action and is now 3lb lower than when a close second over C&D in January. |

Two wins and several near-misses to his name over C&D; had plenty of chances off a sliding mark of late and will need the breaks if dropped in as anticipated from the outside stall. |

Came good with ready C&D win in December, his fifth start, and was placed on next two outings; didn't fire last time but has a fighting chance if back on song here; cheekpieces (worn for last two races) removed. |

On the up since handicapping, getting off the mark in a 5f nursery at Lingfield in December; good second at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day but he wasn't at his best tried in cheekpieces (retained) at Chelmsford last month; perhaps vulnerable to improvers. |

18th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Creditable third in a Wolverhampton handicap (5f, tongue-tie added) on Boxing Day but he didn't match that form at that same track 16 days ago; record is now 0-8 and he needs more progress at this new trip. |

2nd Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Heavily backed on his nursery debut at Lingfield four weeks ago but he was disappointing in sixth, finishing behind a couple of today's rivals; better when tried in a tongue-tie here last week, keeping on for third having been tapped for speed in the straight; progress required to win. |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Reliable as a 2yo, winning Bath maiden in September and running creditably after three months off when fourth in nursery here on Boxing Day; both those runs were over 5f but he stays 6f well; unlikely to be far away. |

26th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Was on the go early and fully exposed now (at 5f-1m); stiff 5f was fine when off the mark at Bath in the autumn but this will be more about speed and he's some way down the pecking order back from three months off. |

Prominent racer who won twice in the spring, including a C&D handicap off 5lb lower; in and out since and although she's well drawn here, an easy lead is unlikely. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

Has not made a serious impact in her five runs including two AW handicaps (6f/5f) in December; mark is sliding but she needs improvement on this step back up in trip. |

26th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Well backed when winning a 5f handicap at Pontefract (soft) last October but hasn't matched that since, including beating only one home over C&D three weeks ago; back on the mark he defied at Pontefract but would need to see money for him again. |

Turned things around with a win at Pontefract (5f, good) in October but he's been back in the doldrums in three subsequent runs; has plenty to prove again and needs another bolt from the blue. |

13th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Made all to win a 6f maiden at Wolverhampton in November; yet to show comparable form in handicaps and the addition of cheekpieces needs to give her a lift. |

7th 4 (3) |
5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all in a Wolverhampton maiden (6f, Tapeta) in November but she's been disappointing in two handicaps there since and was beaten 10l after a slow start last time; still has potential after only four runs but she needs to get her career back on track. |
8/1 |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Clearly best effort when making all over C&D in November; there were excuses on her nursery debut here on Boxing Day (dropped back to 5f; drawn wide) and she may still have untapped potential back at 6f; not ruled out. |

29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Habitual slow starter who has one win from 33 starts; beaten a neck at Lingfield (5f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month but he's failed to beat a rival home in two outings since; others preferred. |

8th 7 (8) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Not one to rely on and she was very slowly away when last of 12 in 5f Southwell handicap 17 days ago; she's very hard to make a case for. |
14/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Huge chance on this year's best form, notably a C&D second off 7lb higher in February; refused to race at Yarmouth on her penultimate start though and that, allied to a modest effort at Chelmsford two weeks ago, leaves her with too much to prove for comfort. |
