27th Aug 2023 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Emphatic winner of this race 12 months ago and followed up on her return the following month; those wins were off 2lb and 8lb higher marks respectively so handicapped to threaten if able to rediscover some form with the headgear (sported for last three runs) now removed. |

16th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Triple C&D winner who was a clear second back at this track (1m2f, good to soft; second-time visor) two weeks ago; that was behind a handicap blot who has won again since and this return to fast ground is no problem; dangerous with cheekpieces now tried. |
4/1 |

1st Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Three C&D wins all came in late summer, including two for Isobel Francis last year, and she offered more in a first-time visor (retained) recently; holds decent claims on that down 2lb. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
4-9 over C&D including landing this race three years ago, but his starts have increasingly become a problem, flatly refusing to do so here in October; too risky. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Increasing tendency to blow the start last season culminated in a refusal to race on final appearance; that was at Newbury, where he'd previously been at his best; he's contrastingly 0-6 on AW and none of his form in this sphere lives up to today's mark; probably best watched. |
40/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Last four wins were over C&D, including on heavy last September and good to soft in same race this year; ran respectably off this 5lb higher mark (career high) at York latest; increasing tendency to blow the start is a major worry but C&D record puts him high on the list; also declared at Doncaster. |

21st Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Infrequent winner who lacks consistency; has been running well of late, though, and is 1lb lower than when going in over C&D for Christian Howarth in June, so will rightly have his supporters. |

23rd Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over C&D in June but he's been disappointing since and was laboured back here (9.4f) last time; now back on last winning mark but he has questions to answer and is drawn out wide; tongue-tie worn last time is removed. |

10th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Knows how to win as he showed when successful from four rivals at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last month, but he was allowed to dictate there and didn't back it up at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) a week ago (has won over that C&D); needs to bounce back. |

Recorded his sixth win when making all to justify favouritism off reduced mark at Wolverhampton (1m6f) 18 days ago; this is a deeper race but he's only 2lb higher than last time and has won over C&D in the past; could be a major force again. |

Her last three wins have come over this trip at Yarmouth, the latest of them off 5lb higher 14 months ago; ignore her reappearance (blindfold off late) and a better run is on the cards today. |

14th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Her last three wins have come over C&D, the latest of them 14 months ago off a 5lb higher mark; blindfold slow to be removed and always on the back foot on her recent reappearance here; easy to strike a line through that and better expected this time. |

Handy sort who hasn't been seen in 222 days, but was winning for the third time over this C&D when making a successful return in April of last year; 3lb lower now and given that she is proven fresh a big run wouldn't surprise. |
