29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Eight-time turf winner including three over C&D (good to firm/firm); disappointing effort on his final start last year and he was held in sixth here on his reappearance 12 days ago; may come on for that. |
14/1 |

6th 8 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Eight-time turf winner including three over C&D (good to firm/firm); well handicapped on his best form in 2025 but he's not easy to predict and he ended last season on a low note; market should guide after 169 days off. |

9st 3lb |
Dual C&D winner and his latest victory came in the corresponding event in 2021; patchy record this year but a repeat of his Chepstow third in June (7f, good to firm) would bring him into it. |

Took a major step back in right direction with his close third at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) two weeks ago and ties in with Ballet Blanc on that classified form; last win (in 2021) came off this mark. |

24th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Several lengthy absences in recent times and returns from four months off today; ran fairly well behind Fact Or Fable over C&D last summer but will do well to add to his sole win, which came as a 3yo in Ireland. |

Looks on the downgrade and dropping to 6f didn't help at Ffos Las 11 days ago; others safer. |

31st Jul 2023 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

20th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

One of three runners for this stable; hinted at a return to form in C&D classified event last time, finishing fifth to Fact Or Fable; poor strike-rate and long losing spell are the negatives. |

28th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Out of the frame in all five starts; not beaten that far when sixth of 11 (Ballet Blanc second) on turf debut in a similar contest here (7f, good to firm) last month but still hard to fancy. |

26th Jul 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Sister to Thrave, who is among today's opponents; best AW effort (close third behind subsequent winners) came over 1m; has appeared to find 7f and 1m2f unsuitable since switched to turf; interesting returned to what may prove her optimum distance. |
7/1 |

6th 9 (5) |
15th Jul 2023 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 6 |

Made the frame in two AW handicaps this spring (1m/8.6f) but was safely held in basement-grade classified on last month's turf debut (7f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces); clearly needs to do much better over new trip here. |

5th 4 (7) |
31st Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |

Shaped better when having a troubled run at Chepstow last week but he has something to find on these terms and was never in contention in a similar C&D race in July. |
33/1 |

8th 13 (13) |
24th Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Over three years since the last of his six wins and he has to bounce back from a low-key run at Bath on Saturday; others look much safer. |

0-16, but two of her four frame finishes to date have been recorded over this C&D on quick ground; yet to offer sufficient here or elsewhere in a light 2023 campaign so far, however. |

9st 10lb |
Slightly disappointing when last in action but generally in good form this summer, most notably when winning Lingfield classified race (7.6f, good to firm) in June; each-way claims at least if back on song. |

5th 1 (10) |
13th Aug 2023 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark at the 20th attempt, in a classified at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) in June; similar form on all three starts since and should be on the premises; tongue-tie (last worn in December) returns. |

7th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |

Always struggling on seasonal/handicap debut in April (6f) but subsequent midfield finish in Kempton novice (7f, AW) was more encouraging, and she's back in calmer waters today; still unexposed; not ruled out. |

15th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

On long losing run but she turned things around with a creditable third over C&D on Boxing Day and was just behind Royal Redemption in that race; meets her old rival on similar terms in this classified event and has each-way claims again. |
