18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Without a Flat win since September 2023, but is now 4lb lower than when third of 14 in a stronger race over C&D in April and drops into 0-70 company for the first time; much respected, especially if allowed his own way in front. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Without a Flat win since 2023 but was placed in valuable 2m AW handicap in April and didn't run badly when sixth of 12 at Ascot (2m, good) last month; eased in grade here; can go well from the front. |

Can set the pace; twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f/16.5f) during the winter and a good third of 14 in competitive event at Lingfield (2m, also AW; Tarbat Ness sixth) on Good Friday; turf no problem and he should give a good account. |

29th Mar 2024 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Got back on the scoresheet over C&D (Class 4) last July but he's not really gone on from that and has been well held in his three runs this year; has dipped back below his last winning mark but he's not easy to predict and others are preferred. |
14/1 |

13th Mar 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Not at his best on his second start back from a break at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) nine days ago, but mainly consistent and is 1lb lower than when runner-up over C&D last September; not dismissed entirely. |

9st 2lb |
Two 1m6f wins on her record, the latest on turf off a 1lb lower mark in June; generally held her form since, third of eight at Chelmsford 11 days ago, but more needed to come out on top here. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Took form to new level when scoring by 10l over C&D (good to soft) in March but his two hurdle runs in May were disappointing and, following a wind op, he was soundly beaten on the Flat 12 days ago; has a point to prove. |
5/1 |
|
9th 6 (1) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
50-1 winner of this race last year off 4lb lower; following 228 days off; 10l winner over hurdles this March, followed by two modest shows in May; had wind operation (his second) in July and needs a second look. |
14/1 |
|
4th 4 |
26th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Four-time hurdle winner and career-best form to win by 10l at Fontwell two runs ago (2m5f, good to soft); went up 8lb for that and was back down to earth on his return visit when beaten 20l; hard to know entirely what to expect from him. |

2nd 17 (8) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Missed 2025; has mostly been coming from well off the pace this term and that yielded a win at Thirsk (2m, good) in May and he ended up on the heels of the leaders in a Shergar Cup race at Ascot (2m, good to firm) when next seen 11 days ago; 5lb claimer takes over in what looks a tougher race. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 6 (9) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
A winner off this mark on the AW just over two years ago when trained by David Simcock; returned from a long absence in the spring and back to his best best when coming from a long way off the pace to win well at Thirsk (2m, good) 69 days ago; back from a break with his yard going well; considered off 4lb higher. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Of his five AW wins, two have come at this track, one over today's distance; respectable third at Chester (2m, good) on his reappearance in May but needs to be at the top of his game here as he is 5lb above his last winning mark. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 146y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
5-10 over hurdles, including wins under Freddie Keighley at Fontwell (2m1f) and Taunton (2m3f, good) on two of his last three outings; respected even though he's never raced over this far (he worked his way to the front late on for that 2m3f win) and has been raised another 5lb. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Useful Flat stayer who won his first three starts over hurdles (2m-2m1f) last summer but he's been held back in this sphere in last three runs; mark is falling and he is still unexposed over hurdles but needs to raise his game back in trip; all of his hurdle wins have been on good but he seems versatile ground-wise. |

29th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won at Bath (soft; acts on heavy) in April and ran respectably most starts since; however, he was a remote seventh behind Miller Spirit over C&D 17 days ago, despite starting favourite at a track he does handle. |
10/1 |
|
7th 6 (8) |
12th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won at Bath (1m3f, soft) in April and has run creditably on most starts since, at up to 1m6f; unlikely to be far away if she handles this track. |
7/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won here in 2022 but has not fared so well in his three subsequent visits; won at Bath (1m3f, soft) in April and has run creditably over 1m6f in three of his four races since, so has each-way claims. |
4/1 |
