20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
His win in July took C&D record to 3-4 (good to soft and good to firm); had a very awkward start here since and was soon tailed off (stablemate Cherry Cobbler was second) but, given his fine strike-rate here, he can't easily be left out. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All four turf wins have been gained on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in his first two runs this season but he returned to form when beating Jumby over C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago; only 2lb higher here and has leading claims if he can back that up. |
7/2 |

1st 7 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins on turf have been achieved on this course (7f/1m); beaten around 9l in two comeback outings in recent months but eased 3lb and capable of bouncing back to form to a form with a bang. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back off the same mark as when winning over 7f here in September; has won fresh so the four-month absence not a major problem, but he has never tackled a trip this short before; blinkers are given a go. |
12/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Boasts a decent record in handicaps round here (two wins and two seconds from six starts) and ran better than his final position suggests over C&D from a wide stall two weeks ago; one to consider. |
12/1 |
|
9th 3 (9) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't get home at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month, but his record in handicaps around here reads 21412, his latest win coming over this trip in November after six months off; still just 1lb higher and respected; stable also runs Bungle Bay. |

C&D win in January; not in the same form in three runs since April and minor money perhaps his best hope. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Multiple winner down the years; solid effort on turf three weeks ago and won't mind getting back on AW; looks the likeliest of Phil Mcentee's three runners. |

26th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Largely consistent since beginning this year with two 1m Polytrack wins (one here) and lost out only narrowly after enduring a wide trip at Kempton three weeks ago; has to take a 3lb rise on the chin but probably won't be far away. |
12/1 |

2nd 2 (4) |
6th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Some creditable efforts on turf this summer prior to backward steps the last twice; has form figures of 211 in 1m handicaps on Polytrack and looks interesting back in this scenario. |

13 times a winner, three of them over C&D; in good form wheen last seen, including when second off this mark here in June; missed an intended C&D run last month after a controversial administrative error saw him withdrawn; high on the list. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On a losing run but consistent in the main and was a close fourth in a 1m2f classified here last week; must have some sort of chance. |
4/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Needs to rebound from a poor handicap run here nine days ago but is generally very consistent; came second in similar race to this over C&D (good) in June and probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
12th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Admirably consistent 7yo who chased home Angel's Call in 7.3f classified race here in June and was third over C&D in that grade a fortnight ago; probably in the mix again. |

2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Triple AW winner who was a respectable fourth in classified event at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) last time, but that took her turf record to 0-12 and she still has stamina to prove at this trip. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
19th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lacks consistency on turf but goes well here and did better on her second run back from an absence behind two of these over C&D last time; is better off with both tonight, which brings her into the equation. |
7/1 |
|
5th 2 (4) |
30th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has run well on turf but her wins have come on the AW; ran poorly on her comeback from eight months off eight weeks ago (pulled hard after the blindfold was slow to come off for the second race on the spin) and has something to prove after that. |

30th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ran his best race over 6f in March (Wolverhampton) but hasn't lived up to that early promise and the visor is not doing a lot for him. |

9th 4 (12) |
21st Sep 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Has not lived up to initial promise and his four handicap runs have not been persuasive; hooded twice before visored on latest start. |
