20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has five wins, four being on AW but losing run stretches back to May 2024; gets little respite from the handicapper but has run with credit on all three starts this year. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

Getting on for two years since his last win but he has run two solid races in defeat this year, not ideally drawn when sixth at Newbury last month; effective over C&D and well handicapped; good chance. |

Getting on for two years since his last win but he was a good second in this race last year (off 2lb higher mark) and he returned to action with a promising third at Kempton three weeks ago; solid contender. |

Sole win came at Chelmsford (6f, Polytrack) a year ago, though she seemed to stay when fourth of 11 back there (1m) ten days ago; this even longer trip asks another question of her, though, as does the outside stall. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

Has registered two wins apiece on AW and turf; went close at Nottingham (5f, good) most recently; again receives weight all round and may well remain competitive; has bits of C&D form. |

Has returned to AW for two starts this year, better effort when runner-up on reappearance; has gained both turf wins at Windsor but is attractively treated off current mark; could go well. |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
A dual C&D scorer last autumn; yet to hit top form this term but he wasn't best drawn when eighth of 12 in 6f Southwell handicap in February; possibilities from an easing mark after a break. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (11) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Won twice over 6f at Yarmouth last year and was a close third at Newcastle (6f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) in November; held in sixth at Chelmsford (6f, AW) on his return from a break last time, and better is needed. |

Both her wins for Ed Walker came over 6f at Leicester on ground slower than good, the second off this mark last October; two runs for current stable have come over 6f here, not doing enough on either occasion to make her of significant interest today. |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Nowhere near as good as he was and last win was in June 2023; on much reduced mark and has run some decent races this year but he didn't get very far here (unseated at start) last time and all of his wins have been at 6f; down the list. |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Nowhere near as good as he was and although not disgraced on a few occasions on turf/Polytrack this year, more is needed in order to win despite dropping into a 0-55 for the first time; visor returns. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since winning a Group 3 on the AW as a 2yo; not disgraced on a few occasions on turf/Polytrack (with and without headgear) this year, but a bit more is needed in order to win. |

18th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made a winning debut at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in January but hasn't built on it in seven starts since and didn't see this trip out in his one attempt; enough to prove. |
12/1 |

7th 10 (8) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) on his debut in January but he's 0-6 since and has finished down the field in last three runs; edging down the weights but he needs to raise his game on this switch to Polytrack; cheekpieces removed after one use. |
9/1 |

13th Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Started the season well with two placed runs but then finished last at Newmarket (6f) and was no better at Yarmouth (7f); cheekpieces could turn things around but dangerous to bank on it. |

Two C&D wins in April and she's run respectably here and at Wolverhampton in last two starts; now drops back in grade and she should give it another good shot for in-form yard. |

14th Jun 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Yet to run a bad race over C&D and recorded back-to-back wins in April; Wolverhampton third six weeks ago wasn't much of a backwards step and she should give it another good shot. |

Minor handicap form on Tapeta in the autumn but going great guns over 6f at Kempton of late, winning on last two starts; back up just 2lb for latest win in a higher grade but needs to prove as effective on Tapeta. |

All-the-way winner in a first-time eyeshield over C&D last month but diminishing returns over this trip in the same headgear (now discarded) since; has something to prove again and he's drawn out widest of all. |
