3rd Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins on Tapeta, the handicap off only 2lb lower (1m); only subsequent blip came two runs back in first-time blinkers (retained) at Newmarket and he soon steadied the ship at Southwell; unlikely to be far away. |

6th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

4yo with a record of 2-7; won on Tapeta in two of his first three starts and he resumed his progress when runner-up at Sandown (1m, good to soft) last month; on same mark here but he was disappointing in blinkers at Newmarket (5-2 favourite) last time and needs to bounce back after that. |

Five-time AW winner who was a good third off reduced mark at Kempton (1m; cheekpieces added) last month but he's not easy to predict and was never involved at Southwell last time; others are more solid. |

Five-time AW winner who turned things around with a good third off a reduced mark at Kempton (1m; cheekpieces added) 19 days ago; was beaten less than 2l in that race and he's a big player if he can back that up. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Very respectable 12-76 record for one who plies his trade in this sort of grade; vast majority of those wins came on AW but he can do it on turf and latest third over C&D (good to firm), while beaten a fair way, wasn't a bad effort; has dropped back down to his career-low mark. |
12/1 |

3rd 9 (8) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-time AW scorer but sole turf win was three years ago; some creditable efforts on Polytrack for new yard this year but he's been out of sorts at Wolverhampton in last two runs; has some questions to answer and he looks opposable back on turf. |
20/1 |

10st 1lb |
Three 1m wins this season and he went desperately close at Chester 16 days ago (7.5f, soft); only 1lb higher here and Ben Curtis is a positive booking; one to take seriously. |

2nd 9 (8) |

All of his eight wins have been at 1m and latest was in blinkers at Newbury (good) in May; only 1lb higher than for that success but he's gone off the boil in last two starts and was a remote third over 7f here last time; down the list. |

Stands his racing really well and as good as ever when winning an apprentice handicap at Newbury (1m, good) last month; respectable second on firm going at Bath a week later; below-form fifth over 1m2f back at Newbury 15 days ago but this is more his trip. |

Habitual slow starter; made a flying start to life with this yard in the summer, winning handicaps at Lingfield (1m, AW), Chepstow (1m2f) and Chelmsford (1m2f, AW); not so good the last twice but those runs were on slow ground; return to AW in his favour but still to convince he needs this far. |
