6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time C&D winner who's not well drawn for one happiest on the sharp end; resumed in good form, with two solid efforts over 1m, but has never won off a mark this high and isn't improving at his age. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (6) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |

Five-time Kempton winner who boasts a consistent record round here too; solid comeback from over three months off over C&D last month and is well drawn for one happiest on the sharp end but has never won off a mark this high. |

Multiple AW winner, including C&D, but yet to win off a mark this high; creditable effort at Kempton (7f; Class 4) when last seen in December; could prove vulnerable at this level once again. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won handicaps at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) and Kempton (7f, Polytrack) in 2024; has made the frame in both starts since dropped to this level and is frame material again, provided her stamina holds out. |

Should be a potent force at this level and her recent return from a four-month absence should have blown away the cobwebs; one of two with a solid chance for connections. |

Dual AW winner but he's generally struggled this year and was beaten 10l at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month; continues to drop down the weights but he has plenty to prove and is 0-11 on turf. |
14/1 |

His last win was in October 2024 and he's been well held in most of his runs this year; on reduced mark but this looks tough back up in grade and others are preferred. |

5yo who was in top form on AW in the spring, with a win at Kempton (1m) being sandwiched by two seconds; showed some promise in May 2024 when he last raced on turf; key player if transferring good form back to grass. |
7/1 |

Two solid efforts for Roger Varian in January; sent off at big prices and has finished well beaten in three runs for new connections; should be well handicapped and he is another who needs monitoring in the betting. |
25/1 |

12th 12 (9) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

10th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Steady progression in handicaps this year but he's had plenty of racing now and the handicapper knows where he is; no obvious reason he won't go well again for his in-form yard but is vulnerable to improvers. |

9st 2lb |
6-31 on AW, four of those wins gained over C&D and the most recent a ready success from a 1lb lower mark last December; failed to settle on outer when only eighth of 12 (Jersey Maverick sixth, State of Madness ninth) at Kempton three weeks ago; others arrive in better form. |
10/1 |

8th 2 (12) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Best known for his Southwell exploits, but has run well here including a win over this trip; the outside stall is not ideal, though. |
10/1 |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

Last four wins have been gained over C&D at Class 5 or lower, and tonight's would be the highest banded handicap he has taken in to date; drop back from 1m rates a plus, but clear career best likely required. |

9st 6lb |
7-43; took full advantage of an easing mark to gain his third Salisbury win when making all (6f apprentices', good) last week; escapes a penalty, and Jake Dickson is able to claim his 7lb allowance, so his chance is an obvious one; clearly the one to beat if in the same kind of form. |
2/1 |
|
1st 8 (1) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Dual C&D winner last year (including this race), the most recent coming off a 2lb higher mark than today's; fair third at Kempton (7f) on his return and ran a solid race when fourth at Bath 27 days ago; claims back at this track (form figures here read 3114). |
3/1 |

4th 10 (1) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Five of his six wins (5f/6f) have been on turf but he returned after five months off with a fair third at Kempton (7f) three weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he has possibilities on this drop back in trip. |

C&D winner who made it 3-8 on AW when scoring over 7f here (cheekpieces added) in October; still looks feasibly treated on that form and she had an excuse when dropped to 6f from tough draw here last time; dangerous back up in trip. |

All five wins have been over 7f on AW but latest was 11 months ago; on dangerous mark but he ended last year on a low note and was tailed off on his hurdling debut last month; has rejoined Darryll Holland since that last run but he has some questions to answer; blinkers reapplied. |

9st 13lb |
Made it an amazing seven wins for the year, all from the front, over C&D on Friday; subsequent 1lb rise and 4lb penalty sees him still just below his highest successful mark and there's every chance he can complete a two-month eight-timer. |
7/4 |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

He was recording his 11th course win when making all in a Class 5 over C&D ten days ago, completing a six-timer in the process; 1lb well in under his penalty, well drawn and dropping in grade, so a seven-timer is beckoning. |

On a six-timer; all out to defy a double penalty over C&D 15 days ago and will need more off 5lb higher, especially as they claimed 5lb last time; still respected given the form he's in. |
