25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Getting on for four years since he last contested a Class 4 handicap; in better form than his figures suggest, having nowhere to go at a crucial stage at Windsor two weeks ago, and he is one to take seriously. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

C&D win off a 3lb higher mark last July; none too consistent on AW over the winter but it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see him bounce back to form returned to turf. |

Won this two years ago and went close over C&D (good) on last season's sole run here; reappeared with good second of 16 over C&D (good to soft) last Wednesday and she's a key player off the same mark today. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
He's inconsistent but he was back on song when winning at Beverley (5f, good to firm) this month; he's just 2lb higher today and is a leading player if backing up that latest performance. |
11/4 |
|
1st 8 (4) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Modest strike-rate since 2022 and his form thus far this term hasn't continued the broad consistency he showed in 2025; no certainty to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
14/1 |
|
7th 7 (3) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Conditions shouldn't be an excuse and he didn't run badly at Bath (5f, good) three weeks ago after a short break; Tom Marquand a notable booking; each-way shout. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has been a superb servant, winning 16 of his 99 starts, including three this year; comfortable scorer at Haydock (6f, good to firm) latest, for which he has gone up 6lb; has won over C&D and looks a player again. |
2/1 |
|
1st 5 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of two of his six starts this year, both over 6f at Southwell; he could only manage fourth of the nine runners back at Southwell 20 days ago and he will need to raise his game to defy this mark. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
5th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Made it 4-15 under Connor Planas when gaining his second C&D success ten days ago; did it comfortably enough and despite a 5lb higher mark, is a major player if in the same form; stable also runs Melissa Honey. |

9st 5lb |
Ended 2024 with a pair of soft-ground 6f wins at Catterick, the second of them off 13lb higher; handicapper has held the upper hand this year but conditions will suit and he helps form a strong hand for Tim Easterby. |

7/1 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice over C&D early this year and he's now 2lb lower than for the second of them; showed signs of a return to form when fourth of nine at Lingfield three weeks ago; solid candidate. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Four C&D wins but the latest was back in 2024 and he's struggled a bit here off this sort of mark in recent attempts; has been running well on turf of late, though, and he shouldn't be that far away. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Made all to win a Class 6 handicap over C&D last month; not so good on his next two starts but returned to his recent best when a close second at Beverley ten days ago; runs off the same mark today and he's ideally drawn to attack; should go well. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Scored over C&D (off 1lb higher) last summer and at Pontefract this spring but has proved inconsistent otherwise during that period; no banker to give his running. |

5th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
On a career-low mark and there's been a couple of hints of promise this year, but he's 0-17 since winning on his debut in 2021 and others have more compelling credentials; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
11/1 |
|
7th 7 (9) |
30th May 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
He's won just one of his 17 starts and has a regressive profile; however, he kept on for a fair sixth of 13 at Catterick (5f, good) last time and this step back up to 6f is worth a go; not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
6th 5 (12) |
13th May 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
0-11 and inconsistent for current stable but may benefit from the drop back to Class 6; runner-up off 11lb higher in this grade last June; good chance if back to that form. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both of his wins from 41 starts have been on turf, the most recent in October 2023, but he was unlucky not to finish closer at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 31 days ago; each-way claims if things drop right for this hold-up performer. |
7/1 |
|
5th 6 (9) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Always had his quirks and again hung left when a beaten-favourite at Southwell last time; usually dropped in and that will likely be the case again from the outside stall, in which case he'll need things to pan out ideally down from 7f. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-13 on AW but he is fully effective on Tapeta; the step up to 7f didn't yield instant dividends at Wolverhampton 16 days ago but he didn't get chance to show his true colours, tight for room inside the final furlong and having to switch right before keeping on steadily; this more spacious track could see him in a better light. |

Two 5f wins for Tom Clover last season, including a Goodwood handicap off this mark; best run for new connections when second of eight in an Ayr handicap last week (5f, good; tongue-tied for the first time); dangerous if he can reproduce that on today's ground (untried on faster than good). |

Ran on well to win a 6f handicap at Newmarket two weeks ago (6f, soft); that race had rather an end-of-season feel to it but the Topspeed figure was good and a 3lb rise looks fair; interesting on first AW start since October 2018. |

Four-time AW winner who is 0-29 on turf but he ran well to finish third over C&D (good; 100-30 favourite) three weeks ago; rallied well in that race and he should be in the thick of things again off only 1lb higher. |
