19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Two of his six wins have been here, one of which was over today's distance; not the force of old but has come down the weights accordingly and is back on a decent mark; cannot be discounted. |

Two of his six wins have been at this track, one of which was over today's distance; best run for a while when fourth of nine at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last month but he needs to back that up here. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
He's run really well on his four starts this season (including on soft going), winning at Leicester (6f, good to soft) last month; the drop back to 5f isn't an obvious positive but the testing ground could compensate. |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
A dual 6f winner in 2024; quite lightly raced since but back in very good form of late and came in a clear second of seven in 6f Epsom handicap eight days ago; merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark. |
5/2 |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |

Finished third in his two races this year, the latest in June at Carlisle (6f, soft); on a competitive mark and should make another bold bid. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Two fine runs at Sandown this season and when disappointing at Haydock last time there was a valid excuse (blindfold off late and stumbled at the start before racing furthest from the stands' rail); now 2lb higher but not discounted. |
10/1 |
|
11th 6 (6) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Four-time turf winner, including on soft, who just failed to reel in a very well-backed favourite at Sandown (5f, good to soft) on Saturday; does tend to go well at that track but he runs off the same mark (2lb well in) and is firmly considered. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 7 (5) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A four-time 5f/6f scorer in 2025, including C&D on soft; resumed from seven months off with an encouraging second of nine to Twilight Calls (won twice since) over C&D (good) in June; first run since when failing to fire at Hamilton last week but could revive back here. |

17th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well handicapped on his best form and is effective in the mud but he's still maiden after 14 starts and was disappointing at Lingfield (7f, good) in August; has something to prove again after a break and others are more convincing; tongue-tie back on. |

30th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winning yard debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June before finishing second off the same mark next time but he hasn't figured in two starts since, the latest coming after an awkward start over this C&D; could run well if things drop favourably. |
7/1 |

9th 6 (10) |
14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Convincing winner at Windsor (6f) on first run for this yard but he couldn't follow up off the same mark next time and never showed back at Windsor last month; had three AW wins earlier in his career but mostly underpowered over the winter and has a double-figure draw today. |
7/1 |

6th 3 (7) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Exploited reduced mark on yard debut over C&D but was beaten at odds-on when escaping a penalty at Ffos Las; that was a missed opportunity as he's now 6lb higher. |

Holds weak claims on his form this winter for new yard; possibly found 5f too sharp last time but returning to 7f may not be the answer; 6f has looked his optimum trip. |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
First 7f win at Newmarket in May; just 1-22 on the AW but this surface suits and he was unlucky in his sole C&D run, when runner-up in September, and looks well worth another go back over this trip. |

All bar one of his seven wins has come over 6f, but he has finished runner-up in both goes over this trip including here; still 6lb above his last winning mark, though, so needs to find a bit more. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Versatile regarding the ground; useful form when beating an improver at Hamilton (6f, soft) in September but his best turf handicap form is on that track and has more to prove following an Ayr defeat since. |
10/1 |

5th 1 (2) |
29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Went close twice in a row this summer before winning at Hamilton (6f, soft) eight days ago; he has a strong record at Hamilton but has also run well here and is firmly in calculations under a 5lb penalty. |
100/30 |

1st 2 (7) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Often leads; his latest three wins have come over this C&D, including on soft; 7lb higher than the June win but he hung on grimly after losing his lead here in August and has another good run in him. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His C&D win last October came off a 16lb higher mark so his ability for a race of this nature isn't in doubt; he hasn't been firing in recent starts though, including when well supported. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |

Two 6f wins in 2024, both off a mark 14lb higher than today's; the odd promising sign this year and Hector Crouch replaces a 7lb claimer tonight. |

4th 1 (4) |
6th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

5yo who has a regressive profile but has dropped down the weights and took a step back in the right direction when sixth of 14 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June last time; might not be far away. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Two 6f wins on good ground in June and ran pretty well last time at Windsor; he's probably even better on this slower surface so looks sure to run well off what remains a fair mark. |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 (15) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Best form on good to soft or slower but won twice on good ground in June and he's only 1lb higher than for the Ffos Las win (6f); beaten on AW twice since but the return to turf is a plus. |
25/1 |
|
7th 7 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner who ran as well as could have been expected in a Tapeta claimer on tough terms last time; that effort confirmed him still in form but there's not much wiggle room off this mark. |
