17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Big prices and out of the frame in three starts since returning in April, albeit he met trouble when finishing in midfield in the Carlisle Bell (7.7f, soft) last month; 4lb lower than for the latest of two wins in April last year; interesting. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins last April (1m, AW/soft) and he's 1lb lower than when last successful; the return to slow turf could also be a plus; however, he's failed to shine on either outing this season and has something to prove. |
25/1 |

11th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

7yo who has an impressive 8-28 strike-rate and is effective on Tapeta; he may have needed his comeback run at Newmarket last month but was beaten a long way at 66-1, and he was also below par last May/July on his final two outings last season; plenty to prove. |

All three wins gained here, doing well to overcome pace bias on Saturday (7f); the other two wins came over this trip and he's not handicapped out of it under a 5lb penalty. |

Both wins have come over C&D and he's reached the frame here in his last three runs; wasn't far behind Harry The Haggler when third last time and has possibilities if this sets up for his closing style. |

30th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
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. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 9 (8) |
14th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
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. |

3rd 10 (1) |
30th Jun 2023 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

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. |

8th May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Mixed form since returning from long absence March but he got back in the groove when scoring over C&D (hood reapplied) two weeks ago; 3lb higher from wide draw this time but he remains well treated on old form and has claims if he can back up that last run. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner, latterly off 4lb lower in the spring; switches from a visor to first-time cheekpieces back from a few months off and the new headgear will need to eke out a bit more. |
25/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Six wins from 37 starts, the most recent success coming at Southwell (1m, AW) in March; ran respectably here on the AW 19 days ago, taking his form figures since the visor was applied to 314, but he's 0-7 on turf. |
13/2 |

4th 12 (7) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Aided by new visor on his two starts this year, latterly when exploiting a much reduced mark at Southwell (1m) last month; that form has been well advertised by the runner-up since and this C&D also suits; shortlisted. |

9st 5lb |
Course specialist who landed his sixth win on this track earlier this month, in a C&D classified; beaten at odds-on over 7f here 24 hours later but will be more at home back over 1m and must be on the shortlist. |
11/4 |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

1st 5 (7) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |

Gained five of his 11 wins at this track; not at best in three handicaps since returned to turf in June but was only beaten about 2l when fifth of seven at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last time and is strong interest in this lower grade and with cheekpieces refitted. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
All of his five AW wins have been at longer trips but he went close over C&D last summer and was runner-up over 1m at Chelmsford last month; on same mark as for that last run and has possibilities if he gets a good pace and some luck; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
All five wins have been on AW, including two at this track; bounced back with creditable third at Lingfield (1m) last month and he caught the eye of the stewards when a never-dangerous sixth there (7f) last time; looks interesting on this step back up in trip and he should get a decent pace to aim at. |
8/1 |

6th 4 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two course wins, at 1m4f and 1m; has raced only once at 7f, over C&D in August (favourite), and although a fast-finishing runner-up, the early stages weren't too encouraging as he was taken off his legs; if sharper in the early stages he'd look interesting. |

0-18 overall and, after 265 days off, never dangerous in his two starts last month; several minor honours last year and one was a C&D second, which would make him look well handicapped but he's not the percentage call. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |

3lb higher than when winning this race last year, but is off the same mark as when following up at Salisbury (1m, good to soft) next time; looked unlucky not to go even closer when third of eight at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm) 15 days ago and is respected. |

Returned to form with second in amateur riders' race at Brighton (1m, good to firm) last month and is still on a good mark but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his habit of starting slowly is another worry. |
