28th Jul 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won two 7f novice events (one here) in late 2022 when trained by Jane Chapple-Hyam; struggled in 2023 and he hasn't been seen since pulling up in a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield 664 days ago (for James Owen); plenty to prove on his belated return; first runner for his owner-trainer. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three wins here (1m, good to firm), most recently in October, immediately raise interest and he stuck at it when third over 1m2f on his final start of last term; quiet reappearance in February probably best ignored and he's worth another go at this trip (tried once two years ago); respected. |
100/30 |

12th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time turf winner including three at Brighton; placed in both starts on Polytrack (7f/1m2f) and the biggest question is how ready he will be after 79 days off. |

Two C&D wins in 2024, the second off current mark; behind two of today's rivals here most recently but good chance if back to best. |

2nd Sep 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Looked one to follow when surging clear at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in April; things haven't gone to script since but is now only 3lb higher than for her win and she travelled well for a long way when a close fourth at Yarmouth on her penultimate run; dangerous back on AW. |

7th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Longstanding, regressive maiden who can pull hard and is being given a rare try without headgear; has been turned over at 11-2 or shorter seven times already this year and will need to improve on recent efforts. |
10/1 |

9th 16 (16) |
18th May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

25-race maiden but regularly placed on AW this year; promise on turf at Doncaster last summer (6f, good); each-way shout once more. |

17th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Won his first four starts on Tapeta after the visor went back on, rising 34lb in the process; however, he could only manage a midfield finish off this mark at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) on Wednesday which means he has something to prove all of a sudden. |
25/1 |

7th 3 (2) |
15th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Impressive in Class 6 at Wolverhampton 11 days ago, completing a quickfire 7f four-timer; hit with another hefty rise in the weights and steps up two grades but he is better than ever; shortlisted. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Started 2025 with a bang, winning four handicaps (7f-8.6f) between January and March; mixed bag this summer but he returned to form with a clear second at Kempton (1m) last Friday and went one better there (7f) yesterday; this dual course winner would have be respected if running again today. |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Found only an unexposed 4yo too strong over a mile here last week; handicapped to win but he wouldn't be suited by a tactical event back at 7f. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Started 2025 with a bang, winning four handicaps (7f-8.6f) between January and March; also finished second in a Class 3 handicap over C&D in April when rated 7lb higher; mixed bag this summer but he's on a good mark now and is of obvious interest back at a suitable level. |

10th Oct 2023 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
With the headgear left off he returned to winning ways with a narrow success over 1m6f here when delivered from midfield; the runner-up went into that race in decent form; just 2lb higher. |

1st 9 (2) |
28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won on seasonal reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, soft) but has failed to demonstrate improvement for stepping up in distance; placed from a 4lb higher mark at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) on penultimate start but well below par behind Huscari at Lingfield since; risky proposition. |
20/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
16th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
1m2f winner (soft) on turf; placed for the first time in five attempts on AW latest, when staying on to be 7l third at Wolverhampton (2m, Tapeta); drops 2lb; more is needed from him. |

1st 6 (8) |
22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Sent handicapping for three wins (all on softer than good; unraced on heavy) and a controversial second from four starts this spring, all at odds on; good to firm may have been against him in June on his only appearance since; absent three months but he catches the eye with the ground back in his favour and his sire gives encouragement for 1m2f. |
3/1 |

7th 2 (10) |
25th Jun 2023 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Three wins and a controversial second in four handicap runs this year, climbing 31lb in the weights as a result; suspect there is more to come and he's one to take seriously; untested on faster than good to soft. |

1st Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Has struggled at massive prices in all four starts including on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last week; can only be watched until she shows some promising signs. |
100/1 |

13th 13 (13) |
25th May 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Not started at less than 200-1 in three novices over 7f/1m and has been beaten a total of 150l (in cheekpieces last time); needs something extraordinary on handicap debut, especially from the outside stall. |
