6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 1 |
9st 11lb |
Four-time Listed winner who made Group 3 breakthrough at Saint-Cloud (1m, very soft) last October; ran well when 2l fourth in Group 2 Huxley Stakes at Chester (10.3f, good) four weeks ago; third in this last year and a penalty shouldn't prevent her being competitive again. |

9st 0lb |
Admirable mare who is 12-21 on turf including wins at Group 3/Listed level; has winning form over C&D, but will need to improve plenty on her reappearance effort at Saint-Cloud in March if she is to play a part here. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Keeps missing the break but he still went close two starts ago at Chepstow and it wasn't a bad run here last time, again over 1m; returning to further looks a good move. |
11/2 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Yet again he missed the break before going down narrowly at Chepstow last week (1m, good; handles softer); too risky when he's almost certain to give himself another uphill battle by starting slowly. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins and a second in four starts over C&D and he is running at this lower level for just the second time, so there are positives; on the flip side, he's almost certain to miss the break and can give it away completely at the stalls; risky. |

10th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Comfortable winner off this mark at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) in January but he's 0-8 since and has been well held in his last three races; now returns to AW but he needs to rediscover his spark. |
9/1 |

5th 5 (8) |
1st May 2023 Heavy 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Two-time winner whose progress has stalled in recent starts; over 7l to make up with Sparks Fly on last week's C&D run and vulnerable for win purposes. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (3) |
24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His two wins came off slightly lower marks and he's completely exposed after a busy AW campaign; looked to go hard in front last time and has been consistent in the blinkers but remains vulnerable to improvers. |

9st 5lb |
Placed three consecutive times in the autumn (1m2f-1m4f) and built upon encouraging seasonal debut when gaining breakthrough win here (1m2f, good) ten days ago; drew clear of the others with the runner-up that day and could still be well treated after a 2lb nudge. |

Registered his most recent win off just 1lb lower over 1m4f here in February but hasn't shown enough in two runs back from a break to suggest his turn is near. |

Well beaten in two runs for Andrew Balding and no better for current yard, finishing tailed off in first-time cheekpieces (now discarded) at Windsor last week; much safer to look elsewhere. |
25/1 |

8th 4 (9) |
24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Well beaten in two runs for Andrew Balding, once in a hood; bit more promise for her new yard recently but she'll need to settle better in first-time cheekpieces back up from 7f on her turf debut. |

9th 8 (6) |

23rd May 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Back off the same mark as when winning at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) last August, but not threatened in four starts since; heavy ground a likely excuse for last month's poor Windsor return, but still hard to recommend. |
16/1 |

9th 9 (10) |
24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Lost her way after a Polytrack win last summer; is having her first crack at a slow surface on comeback (half-sister Romantic Time won on heavy) for a yard that's been quiet of late. |

18th Nov 2022 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Off the mark at the fifth attempt when landing a C&D nursery in August but she's been disappointing in both runs since; returns to Polytrack but she was beaten 13l when favourite at Leicester last time and needs a major revival. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Yet to fire this year and has a bit to find with Bohemian Breeze on their meeting here three weeks ago, but he is 12lb lower than when completing a hat-trick around this time last year (first two legs came over C&D); worth a second look. |
14/1 |

Landed a hat-trick around this time last year, two of the wins coming over C&D including this race off 4lb higher; needs to improve plenty on recent efforts if he is to exploit this mark, though. |

4th 5 (2) |
17th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
His win came off 2lb higher here (9.4f) in May but he's not matched that since and has been well below form in his last two runs (1m2f); record now stands at 1-26 and has plenty to prove again with regular headgear removed. |
12/1 |

5 (8) |
9th Jul 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

21st attempt when off the mark on Wolverhampton Tapeta (9.4f) in May off 2lb higher; has raced freely, so perhaps recent ventures over 1m2f have not been ideal, but he does not look the percentage call. |
20/1 |
