9st 11lb |
Ran well over C&D one year ago (after 495 days off) and also went close at Lingfield last winter; not quite as persuasive subsequently but he's had a wind operation since last seen and is not discounted at this level. |

5th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made the frame over 1m4f on his last two turf starts and has become well handicapped, but he's no longer the force of old and was never involved over C&D last time; returns from a short break but his last Flat win was over two years ago and others are preferred. |

21st Aug 2023 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Back in better form the last twice, finishing fourth at Doncaster then third at Epsom, both over 1m4f; 0-6 on AW but returns to this sphere off a handy mark; not dismissed. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time winner, split between turf and AW; last success was off 2lb higher at Salisbury (1m) last August but he's been out of sorts in last three runs and needs a major revival; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |
10/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ran well at Bath in June but has lacked consistency this year; 7yo who's far from guaranteed to take advantage of being 2lb below last winning mark. |
14/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Recent form a bit patchy, but his second of 11 at Bath (1m, good; first-time visor) on his penultimate start took his record off today's mark to 313212; does most of his racing over shorter these days, but shouldn't have a problem with this trip. |

29th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Beaten half a length or less in his last two starts at Newmarket (1m2f/1m4f); has winning form on Tapeta (at Wolverhampton) and is 8lb lower than when last on the AW, but losing run up to 14; needs a bit more. |

23rd Aug 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has won four middle-distance handicaps and latest was off 9lb higher at Chester (1m4f, good) last June; 0-13 since but he bounced back with a close call over 1m2f here last Friday and is a big player if he can repeat that form (due to be 2lb higher in future). |

Four course wins, latest two over C&D and 1m5f early in 2024 (both with no headgear; cheekpieces refitted today); creditable return from break at Kempton and no blame attached to his third over C&D since; not far away. |

20th Apr 2023 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Took a couple of runs to find his feet after his long absence but he has been placed in each of his last three starts, including here and also over 2m; should run his race again. |
9/2 |

3rd 2 (7) |
1st Apr 2023 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Won twice on Polytrack in 2021, latterly over C&D; 15-month absence before Christmas return and he's been back near his best when second at Wolverhampton on last two outings; major player again. |
5/2 |

2nd 2 (6) |
13th Mar 2023 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Won twice on Polytrack (1m4f/1m6f) in 2021 and was having his third start back from a 15-month absence when second of eight here (1m6f) nine days ago; tackles this far for the first time but respected off the same mark if his stamina holds out. |

On the downgrade for this yard since missing a year; running fairly well on Wolverhampton AW (always liked it there) of late, often in races not run to suit, but only holds each-way claims. |

11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Three-time C&D winner who's getting on and been on the downgrade since missing a year; found his level again lately but is some way down the pecking order. |

5th 2 (7) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to stay this sort of trip; very low-key start for this yard but has gradually found his level and was blinkered when third in 9.5f course selling handicap ten days ago; cheekpieces, previously worn without success, are refitted. |

Has won over hurdles for current yard; never landed a blow at Wolverhampton (1m4f; first Flat start since 2021) last month but shaped as if this extra distance may help. |

7th 9 (1) |
13th Feb 2023 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not seen on the Flat since 1m2f turf win for Ralph Beckett in September 2021 and was well beaten on only previous AW start; in fairly good form over hurdles in the autumn but probably best watched here. |

1st Feb 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Two Flat wins for Ralph Beckett in the second half of 2021; successful over hurdles for this yard last May; not at his best in that sphere when last seen in December; career best required to take this. |
