8th May 2025 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
All five wins have been over 2m on AW; couldn't pose a threat at Lingfield last month but the drop back to 1m5f looked against him and he went very close on his Wolverhampton reappearance in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has possibilities back at his optimum trip. |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
3-34, with latest win last November on Lingfield Polytrack; shot back to some form when beaten a neck off career-low mark in six-runner race on turf at Leicester (1m4f) on latest outing and he's notched up a few placed efforts at this track, so he's one to consider back up 2lb. |

Won off 5lb higher on Tapeta earlier this year and returned to form with a 3l third behind The Colorist at Lingfield four weeks ago; will need more again, though. |

Won on Polytrack as 2yo but three later wins on Tapeta, at 1m4f to 1m6f; hard to recommend at present as he's been a slow starter since his most recent win in March and was way back at Wolverhampton in August. |

3rd Feb 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Habitual slow-starter, fluffing the stalls badly in recent outings; showed three outings ago that plenty of ability remained and he's now 4lb below his last winning mark (last February) but there are clear risks. |

Habitual slow-starter who ran as well as could have been expected over C&D last time after fluffing the stalls completely; that was better on his second run back from a break and he's on his last winning mark, so he's a player if getting away fairly. |

22nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Versatile sort who won three times (2m2f-3m) in June-September last year; only 1lb higher than for his last success but he's been well held in his last three runs and needs a major revival after wind surgery. |

21st Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Did well for new stable in early part of season, winning three times under Sean Bowen (2m2f-3m, good/good to soft); returned from break with low-key run last month but has the champion jockey back on board today. |

15th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
High in the weights with him 6lb above the figure he defied at Carlisle (1m3f) in August and that perhaps a factor in his two subsequent defeats; continues to run well though and unlikely to be far away. |
5/1 |

4th 6 (12) |
28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In career-best form on turf in recent months, most notably when clearcut winner at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) two starts ago; also suited by this surface and must be considered in current mood. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 (7) |
1st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Got off the mark at Southwell in February and back in top form on last two starts when second at Leicester (again under Laura Pearson) and winning an amateurs' race at Carlisle, all over 1m3f or 1m4f; has 5lb penalty but the ground may pose the biggest question, as his only run on softer than good was low-level form early in career. |

14th Jun 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Best AW form has some at Wolverhampton and has run well there the last twice, proving her stamina when third of ten over 16.5f last time; 0-16, but could again make the frame if able to replicate that latest form back on Polytrack. |

Finished just behind Victoriano when third of seven here (1m6f) 13 days ago, but that took her record to 0-15 and she still has to conclusively prove her stamina for this sort of trip. |

Lightly raced since his two very underwhelming hurdle runs for Derek Shaw in summer 2024 and returned from 318-day absence with 19l defeat off basement Flat mark last month; swaps hood for refitted cheekpieces; tongue-tie a first. |

Triple course winner (1m6f/2m) but his last success was in December 2022 and he didn't pose a threat in just two runs last year; returns after 318 days off and he has some work to do back in trip; hood reapplied. |

3rd 8 (7) |
27th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
His wins at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) and Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) in the summer of 2022 both came in amateur riders' races and he is 6lb lower than for the latest, but it will be some performance to win this after 638 days off; jockey has his first ride under rules. |

Unexposed 4yo who won a novice here (1m4f) in January and signalled a return to form when third of eight at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) three weeks ago; 1lb lower and each-way claims if seeing out the longer trip. |

9st 4lb |
Hardy veteran who drew a blank in 2022 but got back in front over 1m6f at Bath this April and his other races this season have been at 1m4f; ground softer than good would be preferable; considered each-way if he gets it. |

Good summer in 2021 included a win in this race under Serena Brotherton; drew a blank in 2022 but got back in front at Bath (1m6f) this April when last seen; it looks as if ground softer than good may be needed if he races over as short as 1m4f these days. |

1st 1 (13) |
21st Apr 2023 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
His seven wins have all been at middle distances but he has form at up to 2m and is ideally suited on slow ground; last success was in July 2021 but that was off 3lb higher and he returned to turf with an eyecatching fourth at Pontefract (1m4f, soft) ten days ago; kept on well out wide in that race and he looks interesting back up in trip. |
