16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Has nine wins, including one over 6f here in January; best effort since when fourth of eight at Leicester (7f) when last seen in August; fairly treated if fully primed after a short break. |
8/1 |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has nine wins, including two over C&D; hasn't shown much on his last three starts, over 6f; cheekpieces worn last time are left off and return to 7f in his favour so not out of this. |
8/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two of his five turf wins have come at this track, albeit over 7f; successful off today's mark (and for this rider) at Southwell in January; struggled in two runs back from a three-month break in the spring but grounds for expecting better today. |

14th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ex-French filly who is 0-11 in Britain and whose form dipped last time; placed a few times otherwise (on turf) of late and holds each-way hopes on those efforts. |
12/1 |

25th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 0f 53y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
2-5 when trained in France but found the handicapper firmly in command in the first half of 2023; she's been much more competitive in recent starts though and returning to 1m will suit; handles slow ground; contender, especially if avoiding the late hanging which has blighted recent runs. |

Nine wins, the most recent off 7lb higher over C&D in January; only seventh in race won by Thoughtful Gift at Brighton in April and below par in three more 7f runs since. |

8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Sole win in the last three years came on AW in January; last four efforts don't suggest he's about the regain the winning thread but this switch to classified grade may help. |

30th Aug 2023 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has not kicked on from her winning seasonal/handicap debut at Leicester (7f, good to firm) in May, but looked suited by the drop back in trip when fourth over that C&D this month and has possibilities here if the first-time cheekpieces have a positive effect. |

27th May 2024 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner who returned from a short break with a front-running second here (1m, good to firm) last month; that was his best effort for a while and he's a big player if he can back that up; his wins have come on good/good to firm but he's versatile ground-wise. |

13th Apr 2024 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins in June 2020, including C&D; had fairly low-key time of it on the AW recently but he's well treated on his grass form last summer; wore headgear on last two starts but not today. |

10th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 7lb |
Two C&D wins early in the year (from the front) and added a Hamilton handicap to his tally in July; solid effort over 7f here three weeks ago and returning to 6f should be beneficial. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 9 (2) |
20th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Campaigned on turf since June, midfield in the Ayr Bronze Cup most recently; effective at Newcastle and has form over 7f but all wins remain at 6f; not the percentage call. |
14/1 |

22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb
|
Narrow win at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) in July and went very close at Nottingham (6f, heavy) next time; this is more competitive but this 3yo is not ruled out each-way now back down in distance, having run well before fading over 7f at Carlisle last Wednesday. |

19th Sep 2023 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 3 |

Bagged her second C&D success when getting up late in six-runner handicap 23 days ago; not ruled out despite taking a 3lb rise in the weights. |
5/1 |

1st 6 (7) |
27th Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ready winner of a C&D fillies' maiden in June; similar form at Newmarket next time but her form dipped when upped to 7f a fortnight ago (sent off favourite); career best needed to come out on top. |

Record of 1-24 suggests that others are more likely winners, but he has been placed in both starts over C&D this year, so not great surprise if he makes the frame again. |
