8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to make all but has become tactically versatile; all four wins have been at Chelmsford where he ran well from a wide draw 11 days ago; 0-6 on the AW here but three times a runner-up and much respected from stall 1. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has been a trailblazer in the past, but showed he didn't have to lead when successful off this mark on his reappearance over C&D in May (all four wins here); should appreciate the return to this venue following three lesser efforts on turf and one for the shortlist despite the outside stall. |

All four wins have come on the AW at Chelmsford including from 2lb lower on his reappearance in May (5f); however, he is 0-26 elsewhere and 0-15 on turf so not hard to have reservations. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
9yo who has had 16 wins on AW, in January most recently; sole turf win (from 19 attempts) was at Yarmouth in 2022 but he came within a neck of another in a classified at same track (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago, which was the first time this year that he's worn his usual cheekpieces; has a shout if that form is repeated. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

9yo who has won 16 times on AW; his sole turf win came at Yarmouth but he failed to beat a rival over C&D (good) when last seen in April and needs to bounce back after that 16l defeat; cheekpieces reapplied. |

Chelmsford specialist who ran another sound race there on final start in March; only 1-17 on turf but has course form and this mark gives him a chance. |

Just two of his 96 starts have been over 7f but he was placed over C&D in February; three Chepstow wins in the summer and he also ran well for third at Chelmsford when last seen five weeks ago; each-way shout. |

Rattled off a Chepstow hat-trick in the summer and showed better form when third in a C&D handicap this month; never threatened at Kempton 12 days ago and he has the widest stall to overcome here. |

Three of her seven AW wins have been over C&D, the most recent in April when 5lb lower; has run well since but requires a strong pace to be fully effective. |

8th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Has won on turf (over 5.5f at Wetherby in June 2024), but races mainly on the AW these days; comes into the reckoning following a narrow defeat at Wolverhampton last time (6f); well drawn. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (12) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Can miss the break and is often ridden from off the pace (every chance she will be again from stall 12); notched a third C&D win when taking a small-field affair against her own sex off 2lb lower in April; slight drop-off latest and has to bounce back. |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Dual winner here (6f/7f) in 2020; has gone close a couple of times lately, as when beaten a short head at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) in July, but losing run up to 24; others look more solid. |
12/1 |

27th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
No win away from Chelmsford since September 2021; agonisingly close at Newcastle (5f, AW) on penultimate start and bang there in a classified at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) on latest, which needs respect, but this test might be a little too sharp. |
7/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winless away from Chelmsford since September 2021's 5f success here, though came agonisingly close to putting that right in a Newcastle 0-55 handicap latest; replication of the form of June's C&D third (good to firm) won't quite suffice, and there's likely competition for the lead also. |

Out of form on AW when last seen in January/February but ought to cope well if the ground remains soft and is well drawn to seize the favoured nearside rail; worth a second look. |

Gained a second win of 2026 at Carlisle (5f) in May but he's been well below par over C&D and at Newcastle since; needs to take a big step forward. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Two wins in 5f Class 5 handicaps in 2026, at this track in February and then when beating Fierce at Carlisle three weeks ago; stable form is a plus but he needs to bounce back from a quiet run at Hamilton. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time C&D winner who's well drawn for one happiest up front; only won one of her last 29 starts, which include 18 defeats at 6-1 or shorter, and she has a bit more on coming out of handicap company, but she usually gives her running round here. |

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

Hard to knock her consistency since winning over C&D last June but her losing run is up to 22; should run her race again but more minor money could be here best hope. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Hard to knock on the consistency front and Saturday's third over C&D (visored first time) was another solid effort; set to run her race once again but it might not be enough to end a losing run which stands at 21. |
