8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time winner, split between turf and AW; last success was off 2lb higher at Salisbury (1m) last August but he's been out of sorts in last three runs and needs a major revival; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |
10/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ran well at Bath in June but has lacked consistency this year; 7yo who's far from guaranteed to take advantage of being 2lb below last winning mark. |

Recent form a bit patchy, but his second of 11 at Bath (1m, good; first-time visor) on his penultimate start took his record off today's mark to 313212; does most of his racing over shorter these days, but shouldn't have a problem with this trip. |

Won over C&D last season and began this campaign with some very respectable efforts but has looked out of sorts on both outings this month and now has questions to answer; swaps blinkers for refitted visor. |

9st 2lb |
Losing run goes back to 2019; however, shaped encouragingly in first-time blinkers here (7f; third start for new stable) last month when back from an absence; possibilities off a handy mark in the retained headgear, with this return to 1m looking ideal. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
In the veteran stage now but the old man's been giving younger legs plenty of trouble this year, dead-heating at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February and placed on another five occasions; still in good heart judged on latest second at Bath (1m, firm) and this dual C&D winner can go well again. |
5/2 |

2nd 5 (7) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Eight career wins divided between AW and turf, and he's won from 5f to 1m; returns to turf on the back of a string of pleasing AW runs and no reason why he won't have a say; races prominently. |
7/2 |

2nd 2 (5) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

In good form over 7f of late, recording win number eight at Lingfield two starts ago (dead-heat); has the assistance of Oisin Murphy, but 1m around here just stretches him. |

Without a win since December 2022 and absent since below-par turf run in June last year; probably better suited by 1m+ nowadays; not the most obvious answer. |

Back to form when second of seven in a minor handicap at Wolverhampton last month; never in contention back there 13 days ago; usually worth taking on. |

9st 9lb |
12-time winner including over C&D; has mixed record since last success in May 2024 but he's reached the frame here in two of his last four runs; things didn't go well over C&D last time but he had a wide trip in that race and could be dangerous if he can bounce back. |
