1st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins this season, the latter from the front over C&D (good to soft) in May; also suited by good to firm ground and last month's down-the-field finish here can be excused (stumbled leaving stalls) but others in this line-up look better handicapped; finished last of 13 in first-time visor here yesterday. |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
In a good vein of form, including at Brighton, until losing his chance at the start last time; however, raced mainly at about 5f and this belated return to 6f presents a question mark; change of headgear. |
10/1 |

6th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Resurgent 8yo who handles most ground and has form figures of 231212 since the end of March; put in a dominant display (good to soft) in May and was just nabbed last time (also C&D, good to firm) in June; up another 1lb but remains well handicapped on old form and he's a big player back from a two-month break. |

12th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Front-runner; 5lb lower than for his Chelmsford win in December; fully effective over C&D and he's likely to make a bold bid. |
6/1 |
|
6th 8 (4) |
22nd May 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
C&D winner who scored at Chelmsford in December but he's not easy to predict and dropped out at Ascot (5f, good) 19 days ago; may have needed that after a short break but he needs to get back near his best. |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Versatile trip-wise; C&D winner; put a couple of low-key runs behind her when a front-running second at Chester three weeks ago (7.6f, good); 1lb higher but her apprentice takes off a valuable 7lb; one to consider. |
8/1 |

13th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 5 |

On a losing run and she came in a below-form seventh of ten in 6f Windsor handicap 18 days ago; others appeal more. |

24th Jan 2023 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Tough mare who has been holding her form very well, most recently making all to beat Murbih over C&D last week; penalty against stiffer opposition and other pace influences mean she'll need to step forward again. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Hit and miss but it was career win number nine when narrowly scoring at Carlisle 17 days ago (5f, good), coming from off the pace; 4lb higher here. |
3/1 |

1st 10 (8) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Hindered by traffic issues on his return to turf from AW but latest effort is harder to forgive; otherwise remains well treated on best form, albeit now goes back up in grade. |

8th 2 (9) |
5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

21st Sep 2023 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Better on turf than AW but handicapped accordingly and she ran okay at Wolverhampton 19 days ago when there was a bit of money about for her; not discounted in this lower grade. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 (3) |
2nd Sep 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Five-time turf winner who is 1-15 on AW; went very close off a higher mark at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) in June but that was in a small field and she's lost her way in last two starts; others are more convincing. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (8) |
9th Aug 2023 Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Two good efforts in June but her form dipped on slower ground at Chepstow 12 days ago; drying surface here would help but others appeal more. |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive gelding who can pull hard and has hung left a couple of times since returned to turf, including here; most racing over 5f and his record over this trip is hard to enthuse about, for all that this is easier snd he's in a new headgear combination. |
20/1 |

5th 2 (4) |
23rd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Not as good as he was and although that is reflected in his handicap mark, others bring more pressing claims. |
16/1 |

4th 7 (3) |
27th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
3-25; most recent win came off 16lb higher at Goodwood (5f, good) in August 2023; pulled hard at Chelmsford (5f, AW) when last seen in February; refused to enter stalls in March and returns to turf with hood reapplied. |

20th Aug 2023 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Losing run up to 22, but runner-up on consecutive days last week, firstly in a similar contest to this at Chelmsford (6f, Tapeta) and then a 0-55 handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good); should go well again, but others preferred for the win. |

9th Aug 2023 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

Dropped a long way in the weights and even this season's best would give him claims at this level; declared 8.20 Chelmsford Tuesday. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 9 (5) |
8th Aug 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Losing run now up to 20, but he won over C&D winner as a 3yo and this will be his first go at this level; good draw and no surprise if he figures. |

12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was at Windsor 13 months ago but that was off 13lb higher and he finished a close third over C&D (good to firm) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he won't mind what the weather does. |
15/2 |
|
8th 4 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Windsor last April off a mark 12lb higher than today's and he took a step back in the right direction when a close-up third at Nottingham (5f) a week ago; claims if building on that now returned to the AW. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 8 (3) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Out of sorts this winter; tumbled down the weights but not a solid option now returning to turf. |
