2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ended last season with a success but has contrastingly started this campaign in poor form; hasn't won away from Newmarket since 2022; others preferred. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten a long way at Leicester three weeks ago on his first run of the season but heavy reappearance defeats have been a recurring theme in his profile; won over C&D (good to soft) on final outing last year and he's also run well here on fast ground; could bounce back with a big run. |
12/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Said goodbye to 2025 with a Newmarket win (6f, good to soft) in November; has won on good to firm but he missed a recent intended return on the surface and this might be needed anyway (soundly beaten here last April). |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Had some useful handicap form over 6f and 7f last year, winning twice and running well at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last August when rated 4lb higher; not found his best form this season and now returns to AW with cheekpieces enlisted; revival possible. |
8/1 |

5th 4 (5) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Two wins during a progressive 3yo campaign but he's been well held as favourite in his two runs (6f/7f) this season; has bit to prove but he's edging back down the weights and this new trip looks worth exploring. |
3/1 |
|
4 (4) |
17th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Disappointing favourite at Goodwood on reappearance but perhaps the track and the drop back to 6f were against him; progressive in handicaps last season and this lightly raced 4yo could still have more to offer for a top trainer who has won two of the last four runnings of this race. |

9st 10lb |
Ended a losing run when gamely fending off another in-form rival over C&D 11 days ago; 3lb rise is not excessive and this is a weaker race, so he has to feature prominently in calculations. |

8th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Good record in AW sprints and she recorded a personal best with a front-running win at Yarmouth three weeks ago (6f, good to firm; well backed); 3lb rise to deal with but she's back against her own sex and can't be ignored. |

Has a very consistent record (2212) in 6f AW contests, runner-up here the final time; best turf effort when second at Windsor (6f) this month; holds solid claims back in this sphere. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Three heavy defeats at big prices in 6f handicaps at York this summer; easy to write off this 11yo on that evidence but he comes alive at Newmarket (six wins and three placed efforts from 14 visits) and he is 9lb lower than when a close third behind Spring Bloom and Dashing Dick in this race last year; revival would come as no surprise. |
20/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Had C&D form earlier in career; losing run goes back two years and although well treated on some good placed runs over 6f in 2024 he hasn't looked likely to capitalise so far this year. |

24th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
4-29 on turf and although he hasn't won on genuine soft ground he again showed he acts on it when second at Bath (5.7f) latest; each-way player. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
21st Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has patchy record but he won on fast ground at Windsor (5f) in July and was beaten less than 2l on soft at Redcar (fourth of 11) last time; seems tactically versatile and he's not ruled out on this drop back on grade. |
13/2 |

5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Dropped away in the final furlong in the race won Our Absent Friends at Ripon last week; Paul Mulrennan is a good booking (close fourth on him at Newmarket 11 months ago) but others appeal more. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
14-66 and somewhat of a Hamilton Park specialist; creditable third to Vince L'Amour (Betweenthesticks second) over C&D on penultimate start but, that aside, she hasn't been overly competitive; easing mark (8lb below her last winning one) offers some hope. |
14/1 |

9th 5 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Best on good/firmer; 14-time winner who showed clear signs of a return to form at Ripon last time, finishing third; enters calculations off 6lb below last winning mark. |
13/2 |

3rd 6 (7) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Prolific winner who is on a dangerous mark but she's been out of sorts since completing a double at Hamilton (5f, good) last August; has plenty to prove and needs to turn things around back in trip. |

Weakened quickly at Southwell 15 days ago but had been a model of consistency in 2025 prior to that, winning twice (including C&D) and placed on three other occasions; capable of bouncing back. |

12th 5 (5) |
