23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Four C&D wins to his name, the latest in June off 4lb lower; an easy lead would seem unlikely and this opposition may prove too demanding. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Front-runner who is probably best known for his exploits at Brighton; won there (7f, good to firm) in June and was placed from favourable draw at Chester (7f, good) last month but finished well down the field when last in action and might find others better treated. |
10/1 |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Likes to get on with it and he registered the latest of his six wins when making all in five-runner Brighton handicap (7f, good to firm) last month; went off too quickly next time but his third at Chester was a solid effort two weeks ago; same mark and this is tougher, though. |

9st 7lb |
Returned from 314-day layoff with very respectable fourth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in April 2024 but absent for another 446 days since, and it's hard to gauge how much ability he retains as a 10yo. |

3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; losing run stretches back over two years and he hasn't fired yet this year; dropped 10lb as a result but perhaps not ready to capitalise just yet. |

22nd Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Not run on the AW since 2022 and has regressed on turf in recent times, having been rated a stone higher at the start of last season; well held in three runs round his beloved Chepstow this year. |

12yo who was disappointing here (1m) last Tuesday but did too much too soon in that amateurs' race; had previously been running consistently well (including over C&D) and he may well bounce back with a bold bid. |

17th Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Triple C&D winner for Robyn Brisland in 2021 and came good for current stable at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in June, having reportedly benefited from the reapplication of a hood; reverted to her free-going tendencies when midfield on consecutive outings without a hood last month, though, and the headgear is again missing here. |
12/1 |

26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Gained two of his six wins over this C&D, the latter in June; versatile ground-wise and seemingly on a workable mark but didn't fire here last week (raced too freely) and is unreliable. |
10/1 |

6th 6 (1) |
