23rd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Course regular who led close home to score over C&D (good) last month; reportedly unsuited by the soft ground when well beaten here 16 days ago; current mark is workable if she's back on song. |
9/1 |

7th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Notched a third course win when ending a losing run over C&D 17 days ago (unlucky Vape not far behind in sixth); got messed about a bit herself and has a fair chance of defying a 3lb rise. |

Suffered lots of defeats since last win nearly two years ago, though went down by a short head at Salisbury (6f) two runs ago; she was entitled to run better here last week over the 7f, though. |

18th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
In-form 6yo who regained the winning thread at Epsom (good to soft) then went very close over this C&D (soft) later in July; still well treated on peak RPRs; respected. |

8st 11lb |
Tumbled down the weights and returned to his optimum conditions (7f, soft) he ran well at Brighton two weeks ago; that was a lowly Class 6 event though and he'll need vastly more to come out on top in this field. |

12th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

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. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Course specialist who landed his sixth win on this track earlier this month, in a C&D classified; beaten at odds-on over 7f here 24 hours later but will be more at home back over 1m and must be on the shortlist. |
11/4 |

3rd 4 (2) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
8yo who has worked his way back into form this season and he won a 1m classified here yesterday under Molly Gunn, which was his sixth course win; strong claims under 4lb penalty if running again today. |
9/4 |

1st 5 (7) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained five of his 11 wins at this track; not at best in three handicaps since returned to turf in June but was only beaten about 2l when fifth of seven at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last time and is strong interest in this lower grade and with cheekpieces refitted. |

Well short of her best last season and she made a low-key start for her new stable at Lingfield 11 weeks ago (7f, AW; 150-1); too much to prove for comfort. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed signs of a revival when fourth in a handicap at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) and a slow start was no help at Chester (stays 7f); only 2-35 but he's not without a chance. |
5/1 |

7th 10 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 but he's on a reduced mark and showed signs of a revival when fourth at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) last month; has possibilities if he can build on that and he's effective at this trip. |
12/1 |

4th 10 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 (Newcastle); weakened quickly on turf return at Doncaster (7f) three weeks ago; the only real glimpse of life this year was when a never-nearer fourth at Southwell (5f; 25-1) in February; stablemate of East Tyrone. |

9st 6lb |
Three-time course winner over 1m on good or faster ground, but was successful from 8lb higher on heavy at Bath (1m) a year ago; an extra furlong may suit him best, but still respected from an an attractive mark. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
The winner of three of his six C&D starts (good and good to firm), all in July or August; well treated these days and he looked on the way back when hampered over 7f here in July and he again didn't get the clearest of runs over C&D nine days ago; solid contender. |
6/1 |
|
5th 9 (13) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In a good run of form when winning this 12 months ago and returns after a close third here over 7f; nothing wrong with his mark. |
