15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Course winner who comes here on the back of a respectable seventh of 12 in 6f Southwell handicap 19 days ago; possibilities from a falling mark. |

27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time Tapeta winner whose AW mark has eased after three no-shows on turf and who's now 1lb lower than when successful at Newcastle last winter; currently 3-10 for Billy Loughnane and a better showing can be expected. |
10/1 |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

No problem with fast turf but he has a much better strike-rate on AW; midfield finish at Doncaster last month didn't suggest he is the answer here. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
10st 3lb |
Two AW wins (at 5f and 6f) last year for Jonathan Portman; has run well off marks in the mid-70s; now a modest 60, having shown very little in four runs for this stable, including a 7f claimer at Dundalk last time; definite chance on his old form; worth a market check. |
7/1 |

11th 12 (6) |
15th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Two-time AW winner at 5f-6f for Jonathan Portman; hard to fancy on recent form (blood noted at both nostrils on comeback run), too keen at Ayr latest; first-time tongue-tie. |
33/1 |

9th 8 (6) |
7th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two-time AW winner at 5f-6f for Jonathan Portman; blood noted at both nostrils after a poor run at Down Royal (7f) for May's stable debut and he beat one home back there (5f, also good) having stumbled last time; risky. |

25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Gained last five wins on AW but has proved consistent in Scotland since returned to turf; finished 1l second at Ayr (7f) most recently; reasonably solid contender in current form. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't won on turf for more than three years but he's run plenty of good races this season including when runner-up over C&D (good to firm) in May and close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) in June; hasn't made an impact in last two runs but this drop back in trip is a positive and he's in the mix. |

Tough, consistent sort; hasn't won on turf for more than three years but plenty of decent placed runs this term, including when second over 1m here in May (good to firm) and when close third over 6f at Hamilton in June (good to soft); yet to win over 1m. |

23rd Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won her first two starts for this yard over 6f on turf last August and ran with credit when fourth of nine at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) ten days ago; 2lb lower, but is now 0-14 on the AW so she needs to pull out more. |

13th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Yet to win on the AW but she has gone close on several occasions, including when fifth at Kempton in December; runner-up twice over 7f here but both her successes have come over this trip; Rossa Ryan a positive booking. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Most effective on AW (4-25) and was beaten 15l (tenth) in the Grey Horse handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to firm; 40-1) last month; needs this change of headgear - has won in first-time blinkers previously - to spark a revival; easing mark but poorly drawn. |

16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Close third in this last year (good) and he won twice at Kempton (6f, AW) in the winter; below par on his last two starts but runs off his last winning mark and is not written off. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (4) |
28th Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
In good form at Kempton over the winter, winning twice in blinkers; had a three-month break prior to his midfield finish at Salisbury last month; should be happier back on AW and with blinkers back on (wore cheekpieces latest); solid contender. |

1st Jul 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Sole win was in a 2yo novice in 2022 and he's finished down the field in all seven runs for current yard; mark continues to fall but he was tailed off at Brighton (bled from nose) last time and has plenty to prove; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

9st 8lb |
Sole win was in a 2yo novice in 2022 and he's finished down the field in all six runs for current yard; mark continues to fall but he was beaten 8l at Chelmsford last month and needs to do much better on this step back up to 1m; cheekpieces reapplied. |

8th 2 (3) |
9th May 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Novice winner over this trip in 2022 but hasn't added to tally and below best on three of last four starts; blinkers worn last twice now left off but still has a bit to prove. |

26th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who needs to produce more than he's managed the last twice but before those he was a creditable fifth in the Ayr Bronze Cup and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; not written off. |
14/1 |

5th 1 (8) |
18th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last month and ran well enough to think he's still in reasonable form when fifth in a higher grade than this at Haydock last time; in the mix. |
15/2 |

6th 10 (2) |
28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Most of his nine wins on soft or heavy; finished close up in the Ayr Bronze Cup last weekend which gives him a fighting chance here but he has a better overall record on that track than this one and remains on much the same mark as when well adrift of Trilby here in April. |
