16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has won on firm but best form on soft, as when winning the Lincoln (1m) in 2024; lightly raced with little return since but he was hampered on Newcastle AW last June; entitled to be rusty for new trainer on this first run since; missed a race earlier this month due to good to firm ground. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up twice in February (including C&D on soft) before making it 14th time lucky over hurdles in 2m4f Sedgefield handicap (good) last month; he and the runner-up came well clear of the third so he should competitive off 6lb higher. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 188y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-13 over hurdles and becoming rather frustrating but came second twice over 2m3f last month (soft/good to soft) and seems very likely to be in the shake-up again here. |
3/1 |

2nd 4 |
24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Last Flat win came in November 2023 and he's 0-12 over hurdles; however, he ran well when second off this reduced mark at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last Monday and can be in the mix if backing that up. |

15th Oct 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Recorded a clearcut success on soft going at Windsor (1m) in the spring; respectable third on similar surface at this course (1m1f) most recently; has slipped back to an attractive mark and enters calculations. |
10/1 |

3rd 8 (6) |
27th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 4 |

Similar type to Junkanoo, having recorded a clearcut success on soft going at Windsor (1m) in the spring; not disgraced over 1m1f three starts back; on a workable mark and looks one to consider. |

8st 12lb |
Veteran who is often a front-runner but he's not won since August 2023 and he's been well beaten in his two starts this year; on career-low mark but he has a lot to prove. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
About 7l behind Diamond Bay at Goodwood (1m6f, good) on final Flat run but has since won well with the blinkers back on over hurdles, albeit an ordinary handicap; Ashley Lewis also takes off a handy 7lb; could have some role to play. |
8/1 |

10th Jun 2025 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Generally disappointing over hurdles since Plumpton novice win (2m, good to soft) in early 2024 and not seen in this sphere since down-the-field finish in Ascot handicap in December; in fairly good form on the Flat this year, though, and his current hurdle mark ought to be workable; market may guide. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
All wins have come in the spring, mainly on soft ground, but there was no win this time round; has his lowest mark since 2020 but easily his best show this season was in March; usually wears a visor or cheekpieces and now he's blinkered first time. |
25/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
All wins have come in the spring, with one on AW but mainly on soft turf; well handicapped on his best form last season but he's failed to beat a rival in his last two runs and needs a major revival after a break. |

7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
He was making his seasonal debut when only fifth in this race 12 months ago but he's been kept on the go this winter and has been better than ever; suspicion others will prove better handicapped here though. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
He has been a fine servant to connections and added wins eight and nine to his tally in 2025, the latest a 1m handicap at Kempton in November; ran as well as he ever has when second to an upwardly mobile 4yo over C&D five weeks ago but even that effort will need bettering in this field. |

20th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Won at Bath (1m2f) in August and better than ever when adding to her tally at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last Saturday, pulling 3l clear; a 7lb rise demands even more but she does have a steadily progressive profile on AW. |
6/1 |

1st 4 (3) |
13th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won at Bath (1m2f) in August and bounced back from a couple of below-par efforts when 2l second over C&D in November; that looks solid form and she should play a part again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 13 (7) |
25th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Bath (1m2f) in August and has had excuses the next twice, namely soft ground at Goodwood then the 1m4f trip here (set strong pace); won over C&D last November and she's on the shortlist today. |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 161y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Capable Flat performer who ran okay in maiden hurdles during the summer before losing her way; had wind surgery but others look safer. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Fair Flat racer who made the frame in two of her first four hurdling starts for new stable this year, more notably when third over C&D (good to firm) in July; below form last time, though, and has a point to prove on this handicap hurdle debut. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Fair Flat racer who has made the frame on two of her three hurdling starts for new stable this year, more notably when third at Stratford (2m, good to firm) in early July; well beaten when back on the Flat last time but still enters calculations here. |

27th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 4 |

Successful twice on slow ground last September, including off 4lb higher; not in anything like the same form since and spring wind surgery has failed to help; major revival is required. |

20th Aug 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Rain would be welcomed after she won over 1m2f last September here (soft) and at Ffos Las (good to soft); quiet this season but off since April and on a fair mark if all the better for wind surgery. |
