27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner in May 2025 and 2026, latterly in clearcut style (from Now The Eagle) when 6-5 favourite on return from hurdling; back up 5lb now; third in this race last year and looks set for another prominent finish. |

Not seen on the Flat since finishing first and third over C&D around this time last year; comes into this fit from hurdling, though, and should make his presence felt. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 103y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
In good form on AW Flat last spring and returned from an absence for 50-1 win on handicap hurdle debut at Kempton (2m, good to soft) in February; weakened quickly in the Imperial Cup at Sandown (soft) but perhaps a return to less testing ground may help. |

30th Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Placed twice over this trip (at Navan and Cork) before front-running 1m maiden win at Cork, beating Cuban Dawn who ran respectably off 91 in the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot; makes handicap debut off 90 here and sets a good standard. |
4/1 |

1st 14 (2) |
23rd May 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Two good runs this season both over 1m2f; strong chance if equally effective at this trip; slight concern that his second on heavy ground at Navan was better than his third on good-to-yielding at Cork, though he was beaten under 2l; a stable outsider was too good for Cuban Dawn last week. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent ex-Irish gelding who's never run on ground faster than good; didn't take to hurdles in one try last autumn but solid comeback off this mark three weeks ago and this does seem to be his time of year; no surprise to see him take this. |
7/4 |

3rd 6 (10) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Beaten a nose at Goodwood (1m6f, good; 2lb lower today) last May but that's far and away the best of his six runs for James Owen, who won this race in 2024 and 2025; beaten 24l when evens for hurdling debut in October when last seen; needs a major revival. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won a classified race at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February in a first-time visor; however, down the field at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in March and well beaten back over hurdles in April; needs to get back on track. |
9/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time visor when winning basement-grade AW race in February but was below that form on latest Flat start, and this is his first hurdle run since he was pulled up here (2m4f, good) on handicap debut last June; no headgear today; others have more pressing claims. |

Finally off the mark when beating Desiderata at Wolverhampton a month ago; always in the right place in a messy affair (first-time visor) that night and history suggests he's no good thing to reproduce the effort. |

Came on from his debut when narrowly denied in a Tipperary maiden in April; two solid runs in maidens since, including when dropped back to extended 1m2f here latest; return to further likely to help and his opening mark seems fair. |

A second over 1m2f from 2lb higher on good ground at Sligo is sandwiched between two seconds over hurdles, most recently at this track last month; she is a five time winner on the Flat and is 1lb lower than her last winning mark; not discounted |
