12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form this spring, winning at Thirsk (1m, good) and over C&D (good to firm) last month; front pair were 6l clear that day and if he can maintain that level of form he'd still look well treated despite a 5lb rise. |

20th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Admirable veteran who has won 17 races, all on the AW, ten of them here; won three times last year, so still capable of a good showing but usually needs the run when returning from a summer break. |
33/1 |
|
10th 9 (9) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
11-time course winner who defied this mark over C&D in December; some creditable efforts since but he has been a bit up and down and was only sixth behind Anthropologist here last time; others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
6th 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
11-time course winner, the latest over C&D in December, and he twice finished placed over C&D last month; certainly of interest on that form but this 12yo has gone off the boil on his last two starts. |

Has done all his winning over C&D, most recently off 4lb higher in February; midfield in the latest of his two starts since returning from summer break; good chance if staging a full revival. |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

8th 4 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Five-time 7f winner here (well suited by a good test over that trip) who's currently 0-17 over C&D; patchy since a win here off 1lb lower in February and others have more pressing claims. |

19th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Regressive 4yo who has been unplaced all seven starts for Ruth Carr this year; continues to slip down the weights but was particularly disappointing when returning to turf ten days ago and has a lot more to prove than some. |
16/1 |
|
14th 5 (3) |
9th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
No win since juvenile days (then with Robert Cowell) and yet to take advantage of a falling mark; wasn't beaten all that far, some 3.5l, when fourth in first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton (7f) a fortnight ago; sits 2lb lower and drops back in trip; trainer won this race in 2017 and 2021. |
16/1 |

4th 6 (4) |

His mark continues to fall and he didn't run badly when upped to 7f and sixth of 13 at Southwell (Tapeta) last time; however, he needs something extra in the first-time blinkers if he's to win this. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f, good to soft) last month and she would surely have gone close to following up at Newcastle 13 days ago granted a clearer passage, motoring home having had to sit and suffer at a crucial stage of the race; handles soft ground and she's a key player. |

7th 8 (1) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Four AW wins (all at Wolverhampton) to her name; arrives on the back of a good win at Ayr (6f, good to soft) ten days ago and should be fine at this track; one to consider under her penalty. |

Three wins early in the year, including over C&D off a 7lb higher mark in February; not beaten many home in his last seven starts (often slowly away) but the return of the visor may help and he's got the ability to go well. |

Not quite on his game since back from a break but he's getting temptingly treated again relative to his form at 7f and 6f here last spring; having first run over C&D this winter, which might make a difference. |

8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Done most winning earlier in the year and doesn't arrive in any form; on the positive side, he has three wins and a couple of seconds to his name from ten runs over C&D, which counts for something at a track that's always produced specialists. |
