21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Placed plenty of times since last success and current mark is attractive; well capable of taking a serious hand but his losing run is mounting up and latest effort wasn't one of his best. |
10/1 |
|
8th 4 (12) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; no win anywhere since October 2024 but he's been placed this year on both his visits to Windsor (5f, good to firm); drawn wider this time but he's considered each-way. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His losing run goes back to October 2024 and he was only fifth at Lingfield (5f, good) last month, but prior to that he was second over this C&D (good to firm) and the return to Windsor could be a plus for this two-time C&D winner; he's one to consider. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No great love for softer surfaces these days, but her present good heart still carried her to second at Lingfield latest (good to soft); record of 13412 in C&D class 5s includes June's win (good to firm); chance. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Refound some form last two outings for first and second at Yarmouth; best efforts last year were better still but, despite form on testing ground earlier in career, she came last of six on last season's two runs on soft. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won this race last year off a 5lb higher mark and came back to form when pulling away with one other over C&D a fortnight ago; has had her moments at the stalls and isn't the most consistent but will rightly be popular. |

1st Mar 2023 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Dual 5f winner; has had plenty of chances since last win but put a couple of below-par runs behind when third at Chelmsford last time; claims back up in trip with Oisin Murphy up. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 7 (6) |
16th Feb 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
5yo with an overall record of 2-34; two good placed efforts off a higher mark over C&D in November but he's lost his way in his last two starts; drops back in trip but he bled from the nose here last time and needs a major revival in new combination of headgear |
9/2 |
|
6th 4 (5) |
3rd Jan 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well held in first-time blinkers (retained) at Southwell recently but he likes this track, is favourably treated now and the return to 6f shouldn't be an issue; is one of the better options. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Prolific 5f winner, including over C&D, most recently at Chelmsford in October off 2lb lower; however, he was disappointing back at Chelmsford in February and has a bit to prove this time. |
5/1 |
|
8th 5 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Recorded his 11th AW win when narrowly beating Shalaa Asker over C&D in October; been absent since then but he's only 2lb higher than for that last win and he has won after a break in the past; dangerous on return. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Ten-time C&D winner, mainly from the front, including twice earlier in the year, latterly off this mark; this company a bit warmer than he's used to and there's other pace in here, so he'll need something close to a career-best effort. |
16/1 |
|
4th 3 (7) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner who is 11-61 on the AW, but 0-6 on turf; has a bit to prove and will probably need the ground to dry out in any case. |
20/1 |
|
6th 8 |
29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Cracking 8yo who has won two Polytrack races in every season for the last five years; however, he finished behind Spendmore Lane and Ancient State at Lingfield recently and the return to Tapeta looks a negative. |

27th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win since summer 2020 but has made the frame three consecutive times in cheekpieces in recent weeks (5f-6f), and competes off another career-low mark here; sports first-time visor for this first run at Brighton. |
6/1 |

30th May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
On a long losing run but is on a handy mark and ran his best race for a while when chasing home a well-treated one on Southwell AW 19 days ago; likes these conditions (all four wins on good to firm) and is likely to go well. |

Not as good as he was but he has run a couple of good races over 5f on Tapeta this spring; has C&D form but others make more appeal. |

8th 4 (3) |
20th Apr 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

He has dropped a long way in the weights and he ran creditably in a 5f seller at Wolverhampton ten days ago (first-time visor, retained); a bit more will be needed back in a handicap. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time AW winner who is 1-7 on turf; paid for setting a strong pace when returned to this sphere last time but ended up achieving nothing in terms of form and he has become inconsistent. |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 (1) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time tongue-tie when causing 28-1 surprise on AW in February (6f) but absent since running as though something was amiss the following month and has become far too inconsistent to rely upon; not the percentage call on first turf start since summer 2024. |
12/1 |

8th 2 (1) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Returned to form out of the blue when winning a C&D handicap last month (tongue tied first time); fair effort at Southwell (5f) one week later and he will be happier back up in distance. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended 2025 with two placed efforts on AW and he lines up here off a 6lb lower mark than when second at Newcastle in December; that is a result of four lesser efforts though and he now has a point to prove. |
20/1 |
|
9th 3 (2) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Close third over C&D in November off 3lb higher but he's finished down the field in his last three starts and his last win was over two years ago; others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
10th 5 (7) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
No win since February 2024; caught late by Latin Five (who, when factoring in riding arrangements, is now 6lb worse off) over C&D three starts back; less competitive at Southwell (6f) and Wolverhampton since; must bounce back. |
