29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Yet to score this term but his sixth of 21 at the Ebor festival (6f, good to firm) indicated he might be rediscovering his level; that didn't prove the case at Windsor last time but he's too well handicapped to ignore and rain would certainly not hinder him. |
10/1 |

10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Saw out 2025 with three AW wins from his final four starts but he's played only minor roles in turf handicaps this year, including when beaten nearly 5l behind King Of Light over C&D in May; could do with some rain or, failing that, a return to the AW as he's well treated now. |
25/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ended 2025 in fine form on AW; 0-7 in 2026 but he has slipped 6lb below his last winning mark and has Toby Moore taking another 7lb off his back; suspicion a few will prove stronger. |

Retains plenty of gusto aged nine and scored in big field at Chelmsford most recently, completing an AW hat-trick; successful (off just 1lb lower) in this race two years ago; likely player. |

17th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner and dual C&D winner, the latest from 5lb higher just under a year ago; 0-16 in the meantime, though, and needs to do better than when returned to the AW at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; stable also runs Novak. |

3rd Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Not been in much form off his lower turf mark this season, coming 12lb down the weights; is 3lb lower than when last seen on the AW but it may just be he's on the downgrade now. |

29th Jul 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner whose mark continues to fall and he showed some good AW form earlier this year; however, he's without a win on turf since 2019 and he's been unable to threaten on grass on his recent starts. |

9st 7lb |
Three-time Kempton winner over 6f-7f as a 2yo who's gone backwards since returning from more than a year off; however, he again pulled hard upped to 1m last time and the return to this trip can see him do better. |

4th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
0-5 on turf but ran respectably over C&D nine days ago and ties in with Red Maids on that effort; still well treated on best AW form, though has a long losing sequence to quell (no success since early 2023). |
8/1 |

25th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well treated on best AW form but her losing run is mounting up and this belated return to grass presents a question mark; her turf record (four attempts) is far from solid. |

16th Jun 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Five good runs over 7f on AW this year and all four wins have been on an artificial surface; modest form on turf, on last run, which was back in June 2022, finishing 9l seventh of eight at Chester (7f, good); best watched. |

Has held his form all winter and boasts a win and a second from two runs over C&D; no obvious reason why he won't go well again but is 5lb above his last successful mark and has done most recent racing in lesser company. |

9st 11lb |
Dual Kempton winner as a 2yo who's been expensive to follow in handicaps, getting turned over at 3-1 or shorter on six occasions; pulled hard in the visor back from a short break over C&D last week (third form of headgear tried). |

Three placed efforts in cheepieces/blinkers over 6f and 7f this winter; ran poorly at Lingfield eight weeks ago (headgear left off); drops back in class and with a visor enlisted; not ruled out. |
