24th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Recorded his sixth win when swooping late to justify support at Chester (10.3f, good to soft) two weeks ago; up 3lb but remains feasibly treated on his best form and two of his wins have come on Tapeta; key player. |

9st 7lb |
Five-time winner; yet to strike in 2026 but he retains all his ability and only went down narrowly behind Zambezi Magic at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) 11 days ago; 4lb better off for a neck today; one of the likelier ones. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Quickened up best off a modest gallop at Goodwood (1m1f, good to firm) in August and just missed out at Epsom after a 4lb rise (1m2f, good to soft); nudged up another 2lb but seems better than ever right now, despite his high mileage. |

Appreciated the drop in grade to quicken up best off a modest gallop at Goodwood (1m1f, good to firm) and he can cope with this 4lb higher mark; considered. |

3lb lower than winning at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in November and was running well when last seen on turf last summer, including a win here (11.5f, good to firm); still capable over this shorter trip and shortlisted. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Only 1lb higher than for last year's win in this race (good to firm) and returns on the back of a solid effort at Windsor; holds every chance. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Multiple winner who usually gives a good account on this track, winning over C&D (good) in May 2025, and is on a winnable mark; showed signs of a revival on Wolverhampton AW last week after a relatively quiet patch and can be on the premises. |
10/1 |

Seven-time winner and latest was at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in April; well handicapped on that form but he's not threatened since and was beaten 6l at Brighton last time; others preferred. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All five of his wins have come at Newcastle; it has been a long time since the last of them but a second wind op seemed to do the trick earlier in the year, finishing second at Chelmsford and over C&D; absent since March but he has to be taken seriously off his lowly mark. |
5/2 |

2nd 7 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Four wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from ten runs over C&D and bounced back to form 18 days ago (7f, Polytrack) on his first start since undergoing a second round of wind surgery; on a very attractive mark if building on that. |

Won at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) in April for his previous yard but he's not matched that since and has been well held in both runs for new trainer; has plenty to prove again and he's now 1-17. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Flat and hurdle winner who showed signs of a revival when runner-up at Ffos Las (1m4f, soft) in August but she was well held here next time; bit to prove again after that and she's untried beyond 1m4f on the Flat. |
6/1 |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Returned from break with two below-par runs in July but last month's Ffos Las second (1m4f, soft) was much better, and she was a heavy-ground C&D winner off today's mark last autumn; high on the list. |
4/1 |

29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has possibly found good ground on the quick side of late but she was a wide-margin winner on heavy (1m2f) last October and won over hurdles (good to soft) the following month so any rain would suit; not ruled out. |

1st Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
The form of his two wins here (1m2f/1m) this summer has substance; raced freely and folded over 1m2f last time when bidding for Brighton hat-trick, suggesting he'll benefit from this drop back in trip; remains of interest at this level. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Closely matched with A Rose Adaay on their recent clash in a classified race; probably needs more back in a handicap and he's hard to win with (2-33). |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

0-17 since winning twice over 1m in the summer of 2024, but he has run well in his last two visits in handicaps here (7f); each-way claims down in grade. |

He ran his best race for some time when second of five in a handicap over C&D (good to firm) last week; fair fourth at Bath on Wednesday but others appeal more for win purposes. |
