22nd Jun 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Sparingly raced and first six runs on the AW, showing progressive form in 1m handicaps; modest first attempt on turf in April (good to soft) but his latest third, on good ground at Newbury, was more reassuring; proven stamina can stand him in good stead back at 7f and he should have more to give for top yard. |

3rd 10 (2) |
20th May 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Progressive on AW, including this year since a long absence; close second to Alrehb at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March; however, last of 13 at Newmarket (good to soft) last month when he finally had a turf race. |
8/1 |

13th 4 (8) |
18th Apr 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive on AW, latterly since returning this year from long absence; close second in the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton (8.5f) most recently; yet to finish out of the first two; still has low mileage; big player provided he's just as good on turf. |

Gained sole turf success in 2021 and it's two years since last AW win; 0-5 for current stable but he could strip fitter for his Beverley reappearance a fortnight ago. |

Gained sole turf success in 2021 and it's two years since last AW win; 0-4 for current stable and lacks recent match practice having been absent since November; probably best watched unless the market suggests otherwise. |

10st 2lb |
Veteran has shaped very nicely the last twice at Leopardstown (7f, yld-sft) and Roscommon (7.5f, good); close third off 3lb higher over C&D last summer; big chance with the step back up to 1m sure to suit. |

9st 5lb |
Seven-time AW winner but he's finished a well-held seventh at Kempton in last two starts; on much lower mark back on turf and he's just 1-11 in this sphere; that win was a narrow success off 4lb lower; others preferred. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Ended last season with a success but has contrastingly started this campaign in poor form; hasn't won away from Newmarket since 2022; others preferred. |
20/1 |

8th 5 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten a long way at Leicester three weeks ago on his first run of the season but heavy reappearance defeats have been a recurring theme in his profile; won over C&D (good to soft) on final outing last year and he's also run well here on fast ground; could bounce back with a big run. |
12/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Said goodbye to 2025 with a Newmarket win (6f, good to soft) in November; has won on good to firm but he missed a recent intended return on the surface and this might be needed anyway (soundly beaten here last April). |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Dual course winner who scored twice at Wolverhampton (7f/8.6f) in March; only 1lb higher than for his last win and he's had excuses with traffic issues and a slow start in last two runs; should get a good tow into this race and has possibilities if he gets the breaks; cheekpieces reapplied. |
12/1 |
|
6th 3 (10) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins and a near-miss to his name in eight starts here and boasts a decent record in the spring down the years, added to when he went in twice at Wolverhampton in March; hit traffic last time and the harder they go the better for him. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (9) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Returned to winning form at Wolverhampton (8.5f) last month and followed up back there (7f) seven days later; back up in grade in search of a three-timer and although this looks tougher he cannot de discounted. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Eight-time winner on AW and 0-24 on turf but he went very close off his lower turf mark at Nottingham (8.5f, good to firm) one week ago; same mark here and must have claims in search of his turf breakthrough. |
15/8 |

2nd 1 (3) |
26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Last nine starts on AW; ended a losing run when scoring at Lingfield (1m) in December but that set up for his closing style and he's not really threatened in four runs since, latterly at Kempton (7f) 113 days ago; can race off his lower turf mark today but others are more persuasive. |

Began season with emphatic handicap win at Pontefract (1m, good) in May but not much has gone to plan for him since and he was well beaten when returned to Pontefract in August; in calmer waters here but it still takes a leap of faith to support him. |

Seemed to benefit from going over 1m2f (and this new headgear combination) when runner-up here two starts back and fared less well back in trip at Chelmsford on Thursday, though the draw didn't help; others preferred kept to 1m. |

Four-time AW winner who scored off 10lb higher at Southwell (1m) last November but he's not finished closer than sixth in his seven runs since; turf record now stands at 0-13 and he has questions to answer at this new trip; tongue-tie added. |
