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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
11-time winner, most recently from off the pace over C&D last month; not in same form on either 8.6f start at Wolverhampton since, though, and might still be a shade too high in the weights. |
12/1 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Came from off the pace (in refitted blinkers) to run down Von Krolock in a 7f apprentices' handicap at Southwell (10-1) on penultimate start; only eighth (King Of Speed fourth) over C&D subsequently; 4lb higher now, with a different claiming rider booked. |

Successful in 0-55 apprentice event under Myla Coppins at Southwell (7f) last week, taking AW record to 6-45; this is a slightly better race but he escapes a penalty; dual C&D scorer; respected. |

22nd Apr 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
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. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner but he's generally struggled this year and was beaten 10l at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month; continues to drop down the weights but he has plenty to prove and is 0-11 on turf. |
14/1 |
|
11th 14 (12) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

His last win was in October 2024 and he's been well held in most of his runs this year; on reduced mark but this looks tough back up in grade and others are preferred. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Usually ridden patiently; step back in right direction when keeping-on fifth at Kempton (7f, AW) this month, but his three turf wins in 2025 were gained over 1m and he'll probably need a strong pace to aim at over this trip. |
10/1 |
|
5th 9 (8) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Most wins come later in the year and is high in the weights (13lb higher than when last successful on the AW) after three turf victories last summer; not been at his best in two runs back. |
20/1 |
|
6th 3 (1) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won four Class 6 handicaps (7f-1m) in 2025, including on good to firm and heavy ground; back on last winning mark but he's been out of sorts in last four runs and needs a major revival back on turf; cheekpieces removed. |
