18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Just held on to win 8.6f classified here in March and can handle today's drop back in trip but this is his first run since May and he might find this race too competitive. |
14/1 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Winning for the third time at Wolverhampton, and his first over further than 7f, when landing a C&D handicap in March; his stamina looked stretched by 9.4f when fourth 18 days ago; not ruled out back down in distance. |
5/2 |

4th 8 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His third win here when holding on grimly last month (8.6f), ending a two-year losing streak; only 2lb higher but he wouldn't be an obvious one to follow up and has never raced over quite this far. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Serial slow starter who's done most recent racing over 7f and looked to find this trip stretching her a couple of times; capable if getting away and finding the race setting up for her but she's been expensive to follow in 0-50 company latterly. |
12/1 |
|
8th 1 (7) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed in all three starts since dropped to this level, twice finishing runner-up over C&D last month; creditable effort when third of 11 at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) 12 days ago considering she was drawn wide and blew the start; major player. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 2 (11) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished second in two 7f classified events at Southwell last month, collared close home on the second occasion; this C&D winner is one of two solid candidates for her connections. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Not won this year but he has run the odd good race, including when a close third at Southwell (1m, AW) on Saturday; wouldn't be sure to back it up. |
8/1 |
|
4th 8 (6) |
10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
1m course winner in 2022; second of nine over this C&D on his reappearance in March but he was disappointing at Brighton (1m) when last seen three months ago; could go well dropped back in trip on his return. |
28/1 |

10th 13 (7) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |

Winner of seven races but still 5lb higher than when last successful 12 months ago and this trip looks right on the limit of his stamina. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins over 6f/7f here; just 2lb above his last winning mark but well held in both starts since returning last month, including when behind three of these over C&D eight days ago; more needed; stable also runs Jackson Street. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (9) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Not as consistent in recent times but rarely fails to give her running round here; little room for manoeuvre off this mark but a good test back down in trip will be fine and she holds each-way claims. |

29th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Eight wins here including three over this trip; back off the same mark as when successful here in April, but whether she will be at her sharpest after four months off remains to be seen. |
16/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Has enjoyed a good year with four wins, two of them over C&D; last two efforts leave her with a bit to prove, though. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hardy mare who landed four races on AW (1m to 9.5f) between February and April; also a previous four-time winner on turf but this is just her second crack at 1m2f on her 111th start; still not discounted. |

Two wins for Peter Niven this year, the second of them a wide-margin success over C&D in April; unplaced in two turf runs for Roger Fell but could fare better back on AW. |
14/1 |
|
10th 8 (14) |
4th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Two wins at around 1m on AW this year; 1-22 on turf but he was only beaten a short head at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April (his final start for Peter Niven); seventh of 12 in this grade at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm) on stable debut 22 days ago; place chance. |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Almost three years since he won and does most racing over shorter; gone well fresh before but pulled hard the only time he's tried this far and will want to settle early back from four months off; refused to enter stalls and withdrawn from last intended start in January (9-1 at the time). |
12/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time AW winner who had lost his way but bounced back with a narrow defeat on stable debut over 1m2f here a month ago; unraced over quite this far but couldn't rule out. |
15/2 |

2nd 7 (9) |
29th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Four of his five wins have come on the AW including one here (7f); losing run up to 24 and makes his stable debut after seven months off having changed hands for 1,000gns in February; market should reveal what is expected. |

Sprung a 40-1 surprise at Wolverhampton in November (6f); unplaced in three runs since but he hasn't been beaten far on the last two occasions; not solid but he's capable on his good days. |
