27th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Progressive 4yo who impressed in big-field handicap at Glorious Goodwood (1m2f, good) and was a close third of 15 at York (1m2f, good to firm) subsequently; his surplus stamina may be no bad thing in what is likely to be a strongly run race and he's respected for his top stable. |
9/1 |

3rd 1 (7) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Carries his head high but his profile has been progressive since cheekpieces have gone on and he produced a smart handicap performance when comfortably accounting for his 17 rivals over this trip at Glorious Goodwood (good) 25 days ago; his two other wins came on good to firm; an 8lb rise demands further improvement but no surprise were he to find it. |
100/30 |
|
17 (8) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Both wins on good to firm at Windsor; carries his head high but recorded two seconds and a win over 1m3f, 1m2f and an extended 1m3f from his three starts since the cheekpieces went on this term, putting him on an upward curve. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Improved on last year's turf form when returned to the AW over the winter, but he went up the weights and his challenge never seriously materialised in the Victoria Cup over C&D (good to firm) in May, when a one-paced sixth of 17; dropped just 1lb and needs more for first-time cheekpieces; sold for £320,000 this week. |
7/1 |

9st 11lb |
Below par in the 2024 Cambridgeshire but otherwise has a solid record, creditable second at Newcastle (1m) on AW finals day most recently; likely to cope with drop back to 7f on this track; in the mix. |

Well-related Kingman filly; inexperience evident on Ascot debut (1m) and then ran a nice race at Chepstow when beaten over 4l by a talented Andrew Balding inmate who is progressing; has to step up again but that's very feasible. |

Low-mileage 4yo who is 3-3 since being gelded (maiden previously), most recently winning with something to spare at Lingfield (1m) in the trial for this race; on a roll and holds strong claims. |

28th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
He has looked an improved performer since returning to action (gelded during his absence) this year, following an easy 8.6f maiden win at Wolverhampton with a front-running success in a handicap over the same C&D 17 days later; 6lb rise asks more of him but he could be up to the task. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up off 1lb higher at Kempton (1m, AW) last July but he's been well held in last two Flat runs and was tailed off on his hurdling/stable debut in September; overall record is now 0-15 and has something to prove on his return. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
0-14 on the Flat but placed a few times, most recently when close second at Kempton (1m, AW; RPR 72) for John Gallagher in July; stamina might be an issue over hurdles but he joined a good stable for jumping career. |
16/1 |

4yo maiden whose 2025 form suggests he'll be suited by the return to Kempton; however, has a question to answer upped further in trip; remains unproven beyond 1m. |

15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished close up in his first three runs this season before making the breakthrough (11th attempt) at Leicester (1m4f, good) in July; that was a narrow front-running win but he's only 1lb higher here and is still unexposed at this trip; respected. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |

Handy sort who is 0-10, but was only just caught over C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago; 2lb higher but still respected, especially if again allowed to dictate. |
7/2 |

17th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-9 but he was close up in a 1m4f AW handicap in December and, after looking likely to fade away over 1m2f here last time, he found a second wind to be involved in a tight finish; of interest now back at 1m4f. |

A three-time winner (including over C&D) in 2025; off six months before a fading tenth in 6f Doncaster handicap on his recent return and he should strip sharper here. |

Proven winner who found another burst of improvement for cheekpieces going on last autumn; generally kept to 5f and no headgear as he returns from six months off; also has to prove this sort of mark is within range. |

3rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-10 but he was placed in five handicaps (1m2f-1m6f) before being pulled up at Wolverhampton 15 days ago after his saddle slipped; that's worth forgiving and the drop back to 1m4f should be fine; respected on his first go in a classified event. |

Not yet off the mark, but he's been placed in his last five handicaps and had little hope against a subsequent wide-margin winner at Chelmsford (1m6f) when back from a break; has stamina still to prove on Tapeta debut but this is realistic. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 6f 55y |

First reserve; won a 1m2f heavy ground Ffos Las handicap last year off 55 for the Kublers; has been hurdling for current yard and scored in a heavy ground Punchestown maiden in February over an extended 2m3f; way below that level in a Newcastle novice hurdle when last seen later that month; stable among the winners recently. |

Both wins on heavy ground, over 1m2f on the Flat and last time reeling in one of Willie Mullins' lesser lights in a Punchestown maiden over an extended 2m3f; as that day, she's a 4yo filly getting the allowances. |
