27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Three-time AW winner who is yet to score in nine attempts over hurdles, but was placed on his last two starts in this sphere before a below-par Flat run at Redcar last time; this looks a good opportunity to open his hurdles account. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |

Not seen on the Flat since narrow AW win over this trip in October but placed twice over hurdles in recent weeks; probably won't be far away. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Three wins on the Flat; 0-8 as a jumper but was clear of the rest when a 7l runner-up at Stratford (2m, good) recently and something similar will see him on the scene. |

Tailed off last time and was no match for the winners of her two previous races; has to raise his game. |

3rd 4 (5) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Not as good this year and has looked to have no excuses in some ordinary handicaps of late; only 1lb lower than when well held over 1m6f here 12 days ago and Free World looks his trainer's best chance. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 3 (3) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Well treated on the form of his two 2m wins (good to firm and good) in 2025 and although he hasn't been himself this year, the signs were better when he was second of five on this course (2m2f) two weeks ago; has another well-treated rival to contend with today but he should be competitive. |

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. |

19th May 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
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. |

Stole a small-field C&D event from the front last November and has failed to back up that form since; not solid. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Has made the frame several times this year including when third of seven over C&D (good to soft) in May, but a record of 0-22 is hard to ignore. |
16/1 |
|
4th 7 (1) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Handful of fair efforts in the spring but he's a longstanding maiden who's lost his way of late; again hung left at Hamilton last Thursday (ended up on the stands' rail) and running at another right-handed course would be a worry. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Placed a few times this year but well beaten at Newcastle two starts ago and she hung badly left and unseated her rider at Ripon last Thursday; remains a maiden after 20 starts and others make greater appeal. |

10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 17y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
2-24 on turf compared to 9-43 on the AW; completed an AW hat-trick when winning at Chelmsford (1m6f) in February off a 2lb lower mark, but he was too free over 2m at Lingfield (good) 23 days ago; dropping back in trip should suit. |
8/1 |

4th 3 (7) |
18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Proven winner who can pull hard and did so the last time he went this far (over C&D two summers ago); things didn't pan out his way latest but there's little wiggle room off this mark back on turf after a short break. |
7/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 6 |

Prevailed narrowly at Chelmsford (1m6f) last time to complete a hat-trick; climbing back up the weights but warrants respect in current form. |

16th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Unplaced all eight Flat starts for Rae Guest and tailed off (albeit on soft ground) in a juvenile hurdle for new stable in December; sports first-time blinkers on this Flat return; improvement required. |
