26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |
20/1 |

6th 4 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time winner at 1m2f (good to firm) although that was back in 2022/23 and his last success came over 1m6f at Sandown in July; tailed off on final start last term and two runs (1m4f) this season contained little encouragement. |
40/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner but he ended 2025 below par and beat one on his return from six months off in 1m4f Kempton handicap three weeks ago; needs to take a major step forward. |

9st 10lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in March latest; won on good to firm in 2023 but it's a concern that last year he did much better on AW than turf. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice over about 1m4f (AW/good to firm) last spring and he's thrown in judged on that form; twice close up on AW in January and a respectable third at Bath (2m) in April, before Ascot 2m race last week proved too tough; there's a rethink on trip today and cheekpieces (last used in June 2024) return. |
20/1 |
|
7th 10 (6) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Three wins on turf (good/good to firm) at up to 11.5f; also went fairly close at this trip on AW in January; respectable third at Bath (2m1f, good to firm; Lusaka second) on return from two-month break last time; might build on that. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Triple turf winner who finished well to go close off this mark at Kempton (2m, AW) in January; flopped with a heavy defeat at Newcastle the following month but that was a Class 3 and has claims if he can bounce back after a short break; has form on good to firm and good to soft. |

12th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Landed another Chester win in May but behind Stressfree, Have Secret and Paddy The Squire there last month, albeit perhaps just needing the outing after 11 weeks off; acts on heavy. |
18/1 |
|
7th 1 (8) |
14th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner on soft and good to firm at the last two May meetings; below par at Epsom and Newcastle this summer but returns from an 11-week break only 1lb above the mark he defied in May. |
11/2 |

7th 2 (8) |
29th Jun 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Enhanced his good Chester record there in May (1m2f, good to firm); comfortably held off this mark at Epsom since but good chance he'll bounce back and Wolverhampton exploits bode well for his first visit here. |

21st Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 37y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned after wind surgery with close thirds at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) and Windsor (11.4f, good) but he didn't find much when disappointing at Kempton last time; bit to prove again after that and he's had only one win in his last 17 starts. |
6/1 |

11th 10 (3) |
25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Only recently returned from wind surgery and under positive rides has finished close up at Lingfield (1m4f AW) and Windsor (1m3.5f); had no excuses either time but he's unlikely to be far away. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
16th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
First run after wind surgery when unable to exploit a soft lead on the AW recently (1m4f); however, six of his seven wins have been on turf and he likes it around here; dangerously handicapped. |

The handicapper was in command on the Flat this summer and although his latest hurdle second (October) was respectable, he will need to raise his game to win here. |
