24th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
4-16 on AW and 0-11 on turf, with no joy on either this year but there were two minor honours; acts on soft, probably on heavy; others have more pressing claims, including as she is unraced over this far. |
14/1 |

6th 2 (1) |
14th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Four AW wins include two here over shorter; has so far drawn a blank in 2024 but hasn't been running badly and she's been bang there on her two previous runs over C&D. |
3/1 |

She ran respectably off this mark in two starts last month, third behind an unexposed rival at Southwell last time (second and fifth have won since); should remain competitive and this is slightly easier than last time. |

13th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Exposed 3yo whose record is only 1-26; however, he's currently in a consistent vein of form and went down by only a neck at Lingfield (1m, AW) eight days ago; has a fighting chance off same mark. |
6/1 |

5th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Sole win (25 races) was in July 2022 over 7f here; consistent in recent outings, runner-up to Neptune Legend over C&D last time, and has a cracking each-way chance once again. |

4th 5 (2) |
17th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
His win came off 2lb higher here (9.4f) in May but he's not matched that since and has been well below form in his last two runs (1m2f); record now stands at 1-26 and has plenty to prove again with regular headgear removed. |
12/1 |

5 (8) |
9th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
21st attempt when off the mark on Wolverhampton Tapeta (9.4f) in May off 2lb higher; has raced freely, so perhaps recent ventures over 1m2f have not been ideal, but he does not look the percentage call. |

6th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in August and pedigree provides some hope regarding this step up in trip; however, she's struggled on her last two starts (8.6f/1m, including here) and has something to prove. |
14/1 |
|
12th 13 (6) |
6th Dec 2022 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Ready winner of a Wolverhampton nursery (extended 1m) in August off a 2lb lower mark; good second next time but her form has dipped twice since; the return to Class 6 company will help but others are open to more obvious progress. |
10/1 |
|
7th 10 (8) |
7th Nov 2022 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Her form in Class 6 nurseries includes a C&D success; below form back here when last seen two months ago; the only course winner in the field but takes a step up in grade. |

7th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just 2-31 but had dropped in the weights and undergone wind surgery before finishing a creditable third of ten at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in December; each-way claims if backing it up. |

17th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
He's been disappointing since July and has undergone wind surgery since finishing seventh here (1m2f) last month; drops in trip/grade and a market check looks prudent. |
