1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple AW winner; quirky sort who often starts slowly but he finally got off the mark (in a change of headgear) on turf in 5f Goodwood handicap last month; up 3lb but he can make his presence felt again. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on AW; record of 0-16 on turf but he was only beaten a nose off this mark at Bath (5f, firm) on Monday; has leading claims if he can repeat that form and he's versatile ground-wise; regular hood is removed and cheekpieces return. |

Multiple AW winner; hindered by being hampered on Good Friday last time; 0-15 on turf but ran creditably (finished second) in this race last year; place claims off same mark. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Had been running well on the AW this winter and wasn't for catching after setting a strong pace over this C&D last month (third has won since); an 8lb rise still leaves him on a fair mark based on his previous form but he does now step back up in grade. |

9st 5lb |
Ultra-reliable operator on AW, running another solid race when second to a class-dropper at Wolverhampton (5f; first time visor) last month; lesser strike-rate on turf but he is fully effective on it and he has been given a real chance by the handicapper, dropped 10lb for his last two turf defeats (in Class 3); should go well. |

9st 2lb |
Three wins in Britain at 5f (twice on AW); placed at Lingfield over the winter before being bought for 14,000gns in February; dropped out quickly after forcing pace on yard debut in Naas handicap last month on soft; probably best watched for now. |

Came good for Julie Camacho with narrow turf win in first-time cheekpieces this summer and did well to finish fourth on last month's AW debut at Lingfield (first-time visor), having started slowly; remains unexposed on artificial surfaces; one to consider. |

Record of 4-22 on AW; no win since 2023 but has consistent handicap form this winter, going close on a few occasions, and faced a stiff task at Listed level last time; fighting chance off current mark. |

Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in January on second start since returning to this stable and he went close over that same C&D next time; ran creditably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) 17 days ago but he has a better strike-rate on the AW (1-24 on turf). |
10/1 |

6th 6 (4) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and it's four years since his sole success in this sphere; not the percentage call in this first grass attempt since last August. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Useful mark and was bang there in Kinetic Force's race here earlier this month; below that level back here 15 days ago but again he travelled well for a long way and he's still in good form. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Back to his last winning mark and arrives after a close third of ten over C&D two weeks ago; runner-up in a division of this race last year; in the mix once more. |
8/1 |

3rd 11 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Conditions to suit and back to his last winning mark; two good runs this year, third of eight at Ripon last week (5f, good), and he's more appealing than many. |
