3rd 7 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Hit the line strongly at Wolverhampton (5f; from 6lb lower) over three weeks ago; he's 7-39 on AW, but is yet to win on turf (0-20); handicap mark is still a fair one, particularly with Tom Kiely-Marshall taking off 5lb, and this is the right type of race; don't discount. |

1st 9 (1) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner; two good runs here last month but he was never in the hunt back here 18 days ago; has the ability to feature but he will need luck in running from stall 1 given his racing style. |
9/1 |

6th 1 (11) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner who has ran well here behind Kento on his last two starts, most recently a close third 16 days ago; holds good claims but his hold-up style means that things need to fall right. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Hold-up performer who needs the cards to fall right; losing run stretches back to July 2024 and others appeal more for win purposes. |
14/1 |
|
6th 7 (11) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
7-91 but without a win since July 2024; didn't get the breaks when fifth at Southwell (6f) on penultimate start and was an encouraging third to an in-form pair over C&D (beaten under 2l) 11 days ago; a likely player under Mulrennan. |
4/1 |

13 (13) |
18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Three-time course scorer; on a long losing sequence but holds a good chance off current mark, provided he takes well to first-time visor; has won in cheekpieces. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Multiple AW and turf winner from 5f-7f; back on his last winning turf mark from Ayr 13 months ago (has twice won on AW since); below par latest but not ruled out if able to bounce back. |
10/1 |
|
6th 9 (3) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice (6f/7f) in February and he was a good second to a thriving rival over C&D in his bid for a hat-trick; beaten off a lower mark twice since and more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
5th 9 (6) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Dual course winner last month who's continued in form since, faring best of those held up when not far behind Bomb Squad over C&D on Friday; one of the likelier winners. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Admirable veteran who recorded his 11th win when making all at Nottingham (5f, good) last month; not disgraced at Ripon next time; should make another bold bid. |

8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Admirable veteran who recorded his 11th win when making all at Nottingham (5f, good) last month; there wasn't much separating the first five but he's only 2lb higher here and should give it another good shot. |

2nd May 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Best form has been on the AW and now having only his third run on grass; could be well handicapped but this year's efforts leave him with much to prove and soft ground is a complete unknown. |

C&D winner in December 2022 but he's failed to fire in three runs this winter; continues to edge down the weights but there are risks involved. |
