Not the force of old but he ran creditably when second to Alshimali over C&D ten weeks ago; wouldn't be sure to build on it. |

Dual AW winner who is 1-19 on turf; now 10lb lower than for his Kempton win (6f, Polytrack) last March but he's been well held in last six runs and others are preferred; cheekpieces back on. |

He has seven course wins to his name but 2025 was disappointing and he's rather been going through the motions on AW this year; not impossible the return to Bath will pique his interest. |

7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Regressive 8yo who has been unable to exploit his reduced mark this winter; his penultimate C&D fourth wasn't a bad effort but others still make more appeal for win purposes. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well treated on the pick of his form, the latest when second of eight off 7lb higher at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) in January, but not matched that form since and is just 2-32. |
12/1 |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
None too consistent but both his wins have come over C&D and he does seem well suited by the track; on a good mark back from four months off and a big run would be no surprise, for all his propensity to miss the break is a nagging concern. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Won twice over 6f at Chepstow in June (good to firm) before being beaten a head at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) under Imogen Mathias; below his best when forced wide at Lingfield (1m, AW) 32 days ago; back on turf and drops to 5f (all wins over 6f). |
4/1 |

7 (9) |
30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 12lb |
All wins at 6f, including on AW at Kempton at start of career; in top form with pair of victories at Chepstow in June and showed he's effective over 7f when collared on the line at Salisbury under Imogen Mathias last month; stamina an obvious worry tackling 1m for the first time on his 51st start but he might get away with it round here. |
7/2 |
|
4 (5) |
23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
All wins over 6f, on good to firm and good ground, the last two at Chepstow in June; has something to prove back over 7f, let alone on a stiff track like this, but he's still on a much-reduced mark and he might get away with this trip in an uncompetitive race. |

30th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not straightforward and was tailed off after missing the break at Ffos Las last month but he won by 4l there (6f, heavy) on his penultimate start; has claims if he can recapture that form and he has won off a higher mark in the past. |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Not straightforward but he has more ability than his mark and his last two wins have been emphatic ones, latterly a near-5l success over 6f here 19 days ago (heavy; first time accessories); that form has been boosted by the reopposing Diamondsinthesand and a 5lb rise still leaves him lower than when running away with an Epsom handicap last summer (7f, good to soft); 5f asks a different question of him but his stamina will be an asset and they are likely to go hard. |

Now beneath his last winning mark but he was beaten a good way out last time at Salisbury (6f) and he runs that track well; has been good and bad in the reapplied cheekpieces; bit risky. |

8th Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Longstanding maiden but he's dropped in the weights and he ran well dropped to 6f at Chelmsford on Saturday; shouldn't be far away if reproducing that form. |
6/1 |

4th 7 (7) |
4th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
He's dropped a long way in the weights and there were a few more promising signs when fifth of 11 at Wolverhampton last week (pulled hard over 7f in first-time blinkers); return to 6f not sure to suit. |
