12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Seven-time AW winner who was runner-up over C&D in March but has lost his way with heavy defeats in his last three runs; has a lot to prove and he needs to get back on track. |
25/1 |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Seven-time AW winner but sole turf win was in 2023 and he was tailed off back in this sphere at Catterick (7f, good) in May; has something to prove after another break and others are preferred. |
20/1 |

10st 0lb |
Runner-up at Kempton (7f, AW) two starts ago and he has a 9lb lower mark to work with on turf; however, he's been inconsistent this year and his sole turf win (from 15 attempts) came back in 2023. |

16th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
1-22 on turf compared to 8-27 on the AW but that turf success came over this C&D last May (good to soft); ran well here two months ago when last seen, taking his course form figures to 5323313522, and has solid place claims. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Eight-time AW winner but he's 1-21 on turf; placed a couple of times this season, including over C&D (good to firm) in April, but he's not easy to predict and was out the back at Doncaster last time; has another switch of headgear and he comes with risks attached. |
9/2 |

8th 6 (9) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 6f scorer last season; comes here on the back of a good third of eight in 6f Leicester handicap last month so needs considering. |

5th Oct 2023 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
7f winner at two but wasn't seeing out his races this year until dropped back to 6f at Yarmouth (close third on good ground) two weeks ago; still unexposed at this distance; interesting off the same mark. |
7/1 |

3rd 4 (4) |
20th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |

Hasn't this year matched form of 7f AW win from last September and didn't get home over that trip at Newbury last time; unlikely to be inconvenienced by the return to 6f. |

Began the season with placed efforts at Windsor and Ascot (third of 26); not quite so good the last twice and she returns from five months off in a competitive race for the grade. |

30th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winning yard debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June before finishing second off the same mark next time but he hasn't figured in two starts since, the latest coming after an awkward start over this C&D; could run well if things drop favourably. |
7/1 |
|
9th 6 (10) |
14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Convincing winner at Windsor (6f) on first run for this yard but he couldn't follow up off the same mark next time and never showed back at Windsor last month; had three AW wins earlier in his career but mostly underpowered over the winter and has a double-figure draw today. |
7/1 |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Exploited reduced mark on yard debut over C&D but was beaten at odds-on when escaping a penalty at Ffos Las; that was a missed opportunity as he's now 6lb higher. |

24th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Scraped home over C&D in April but he's been through difficult times since and although he ran well for a long way back over 7f here last time out he did drop out quickly in the closing stages; has a shade to prove. |
12/1 |

3rd Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Regressive form on turf since the spring, but is back off the same mark as when winning over C&D in April; possibilities if the return here does the trick. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
A fair 6f scorer for Luke Dace in 2024; off ten months but shaped well for his new stable with fourth of 12 in C&D handicap 16 days ago; not without interest off a reduced mark. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 (12) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual 6f Windsor winner (soft and good to firm), latterly in April 2024 for Luke Dace; left Claire Hobson after three starts, including fair fourth of nine at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft; first-time visor) last July; market might help on this stable debut (same owner) and first start for ten months. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Down the field in two AW runs back from a break, the latest at Chelmsford last week; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but he has a good record on soft ground and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue. |
16/1 |

10 (7) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Easy win over C&D in December off 3lb lower; should be sharper with his recent return to action behind him but others preferred at this level. |

11th 7 (12) |
3rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

In good order last winter, winning easily at Chelmsford last December and finishing second over C&D (off 2lb higher) in January; drawn wide on his return from 226 days off and likely there will be other days. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Midfield at Ayr (6f, heavy) last Thursday and same story at York (5f, soft) on Friday; however, he twice went close on consecutive days at the end of September (5f/6f, soft/heavy) and is not ruled out under Billy Loughnane. |
14/1 |

2nd 6 (4) |
29th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Hamilton (5f, good) in June and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (soft) on the latter occasion; three lesser runs followed but he was bang there when third back on soft ground at Hamilton (5f) yesterday and has to be considered after that revival. |

3rd 9 (2) |
28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Class 5 success over C&D initiated a solid start to the season; the subsequent other half of his campaign is characterised by a dip in form; no certainty to take advantage of drop back down weights. |

9th 6 (12) |
19th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Should be competitive off this mark and he didn't run badly at Newcastle last week; on the downside, he's another that likes to be on the sharp end and he's drawn wide to boot. |

He has finished second to The Good Biscuit (runs 3.15) over C&D twice this summer, more recently 11 days ago; 2lb higher today but should make another bold bid. |

2nd 8 (11) |
24th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Races prominently; has recorded some creditable efforts in defeat this year, including chasing home The Good Biscuit over C&D (good to firm) in July, but well beaten at Beverley latest; first outing for six weeks. |
20/1 |

10th 3 (9) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |

Races prominently; easy winner of this 12 months ago when only 2lb lower and he returns on the back of some solid efforts, the latest over 6f which has to bode well; good chance. |
