11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run up to 15, but has been running well in defeat as when beaten less than a length into third of ten at Windsor (5f, good) last month; races off the same mark, but he is another for whom this trip looks sharp enough. |
100/30 |

3rd 7 (8) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His last win was off 15lb higher but that was on AW in April 2024 and he has mixed record in four runs this year; ran well at Kempton (6f) in March but he was remote when third at Leicester last time and needs to bounce back again after that disappointing effort. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Losing turf run goes back four years and he wasn't particularly convincing on grass in the middle months of 2025; however, he is 11lb lower than the latest attempt and his recent AW run at Kempton was quite encouraging; revival on the cards with Rossa Ryan up for the first time. |

30th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins have come here (6f/7f), the latest two starts ago; kept on for 2l fifth of 12 over C&D last time on her first crack at 1m and can better that performance when getting a stronger gallop, but there are doubts on that score this afternoon. |
12/1 |

5th 7 (7) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Snapped losing run of 25 when seen to advantage (pace was contested and it set up for the closers) over 7f here four weeks ago; 4lb rise is of no great concern but tackling 1m for the first time raises a question. |
11/2 |

1st 6 (6) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won track novice (6f) in May 2023; hasn't scored since despite a declining mark and she needs to bounce back from a poor run last time; down the list. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Four 5f wins since December, including C&D, with the latest coming at Lingfield 24 days ago; only 2lb higher and looks set for another prominent showing. |
13/8 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Busy since the autumn; some narrow defeats to go with three 5f wins, on Polytrack elsewhere and Tapeta; ran flat at Southwell recently but he's realistically weighted if that wasn't a sign that he's going off the boil. |
9/2 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Three wins in the winter, including over C&D, and he has continued to run well off his revised mark; drawn wide on turf last time and usually gives his running round here, so holds each-way claims. |

Three wins over C&D in the spring, but last two efforts (albeit in warmer company) leave something to be desired; widest stall to contend with. |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Winless this season and he's twice failed to build on a good second at Ffos Las (5f) in June; more is required if he's to gain a first success since January 2024. |
14/1 |
|
5th 3 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
All six wins, three on AW, have been over 6f; best run this season was when second over 5f at Ffos Las last month (good); chance on that run but this faster going not sure to suit. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (9) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Missed 2025 but ran well when second of seven over this C&D in March on his first start for 702 days; struggled on his next two starts but returned to form when going close at Ffos Las (5f) nine days ago; this dual C&D will be suited by the return to this trip and has strong claims. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Five-time winner after 32 starts so he's exposed, but he was in a good vein of form when last seen in the spring, and he won't mind what the weather does. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Twice a runner-up over 6f this winter, including here, but he raced too freely in one 7f run and he still has to prove he needs this far. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 7 (10) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

He has finished second on his last two attempts at this trip, chasing home Hundred Caps at Southwell 17 days ago; 4lb better off with his old rival today; each-way claims. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Front-runner who was beaten off only inside the final 1f at Lingfield last time; should make another bold bid but he's still 4lb higher than when making all at Yarmouth in the spring. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 3 (1) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Front-runner who's drawn to attack and boasts a solid record over C&D; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark, though, for a yard also responsible for Ziggy's Missile. |
8/1 |
|
8th 6 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who was found an ordinary Yarmouth handicap when winning easily in the spring; handicapper had his say for that and he finished well beaten behind Dream Composer upped in class at Epsom last time; yard also runs Rhythm N Hooves. |

4th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Her form has been patchy since she won at Nottingham (6f, good) in May but she's now 6lb lower and can also be effective on soft ground; it might be dangerous to rule her out. |
16/1 |
|
14th 5 (16) |
15th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |

Ended her losing run at Nottingham in May (6f, good); more modest efforts than good have followed but she's 3lb lower than for the win as a result; stable also run Silent Flame. |
16/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
3rd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Landed her sixth win on turf when making all at Nottingham (6f, good) in May for today's rider Oliver Searle off 1lb higher mark; beaten five times since, mostly below form, and steps back up to 7f for the first time since August 2022; vulnerable to less exposed rivals. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won at Goodwood (5f, good) in the spring and has remained in form, second of seven at Lingfield last time; no obvious reason why he won't be thereabouts again but he's fully exposed after 52 starts. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 1-20 on turf but that win was off 1lb lower at Goodwood in May; hasn't matched that form in three subsequent runs but he ran into a well-handicapped rival when a 4l second at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last time; now drops back into a Class 5 event and he's not ruled out. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Recent form includes a turf success but he's only 1-19 in this sphere and still has a much better strike-rate on AW; below par at Brighton last time. |

9st 9lb |
Multiple AW wins include two over this C&D, although his most recent success came on turf in April; has taken rather a drastic wrong turn since, though, and refitting cheekpieces (now discarded) made no difference back on this track last time. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Ten-time winner who is effective here but last three runs have been very underwhelming. |
33/1 |
|
12th 7 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Scored over C&D in December off 2lb lower and landed his tenth career win at Bath (5f, good) in April; last of eight though over C&D when last seen and vulnerable to younger rivals. |
