26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Third, beaten 1.25l by Over Spiced, in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; that represented his best turf result but this race will demand an even bigger effort. |
9/1 |

3rd 6 (3) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Big chance on his AW form but he has finished out of the placings in all nine turf runs; BHA mark is 15lb lower on turf but he's likely to remain vulnerable. |
14/1 |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won from a similar mark at Lingfield (5f; 8-1) in November; form levels have dipped since finishing third back there in January, failing to beat a single rival the last twice; is 2-4 over C&D, so it's possible that added cheekpieces can rekindle a spark. |

3rd Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-Irish 3yo; led inside the final furlong but weakened quickly when sixth on his stable debut four weeks ago (6f, Tapeta); return to 5f no bad thing; not discounted. |

6th 3 (9) |
6th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Won on handicap debut at Dundalk (6f, Polytrack) last November and he went close at Cork (5f, good) in May on the second of his three runs this season; left Donnacha O'Brien for 19,000gns since; still lightly raced and needs checking in market on his stable/Tapeta debut; cheekpieces reapplied. |

Handy sort who win twice here (5f/6f) last year but she ended 2023 with two heavy defeats on Tapeta; now back on last winning mark but she needs a major revival back in trip; hood removed. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |

Has six wins to his name but the last one came in October 2024; second on his return to turf at Windsor (5f, good) and should run well. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Two of his three turf wins have come over C&D; solid return to action at Chelmsford in February but he took a backward step at Southwell 12 days ago; William Carson replaces a 7lb claimer; not discounted. |
7/1 |

6th 3 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Consistent 7yo who kept on from the rear for third under James Glennon at Chelmsford (5f) in February, after a layoff; has never run here before but has form on Tapeta at Wolverhampton; can make his presence felt. |

3rd Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Came from off the pace to win a 5f handicap at Musselburgh in July; not so good twice since and earlier AW efforts unconvincing. |
12/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
12th Sep 2023 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner who scored at Musselburgh two starts ago, but good runs have been scarce this season and he was merely mid-division at Beverley latest. |
11/1 |

8th 8 (6) |
17th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Took advantage of a falling mark when resuming winning ways at Musselburgh (5f, good); given the narrow winning margin (a nose), a 2lb rise looks fair; should be thereabouts; stablemate of Resilience. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of dash, setting a good pace at Catterick 17 days ago before weakening into third (Tuscan Point second but 8lb worse off today); likely to make a beeline for the stands' rail and more minor money could be on the cards. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
The old man of the party but he still likes to get on with it and has a good record here; solid comeback second on AW in January wasn't built on but he's back down to the same mark he won this race from last year; that was a fourth C&D win and he has to enter calculations. |
8/1 |
|
11th 5 (4) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner; ended 2025 campaign with a C&D second and filled the same position on his return in January, again over C&D; backward step last time but capable of a prominent showing off this mark. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Nine-time winner who has not scored since September 2024 but he finished well to go close at Catterick (5f, good) last week; looks interesting off same mark and this step back up in trip is a positive. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 (4) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time turf winner who went close at Newcastle (5f, AW) last September and races off 7lb lower today; however, last season ended tamely and this 9yo finished down the field on last month's reappearance. |
7/1 |
|
12th 9 (10) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Veteran with a better record on AW than turf; 5f on fast ground no problem for him and he has run well after an absence in the past (although not last year); good run wouldn't be a surprise but others appeal more for win purposes. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Drawn wide back up to 6f last time and that run is best overlooked; previously in good form over C&D, winning at a short price late last month in 0-55 company, but this race is stronger and he's 6lb higher. |
12/1 |

9th 9 (10) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual C&D winner who recorded his eighth AW win when coming from last to first at Southwell (5f) last week; 5lb higher under a penalty but he remains feasibly treated and is a big player again back up in trip. |
7/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven AW wins have come elsewhere but he has often run well over C&D and did so again when only narrowly failing to end a losing run here on Saturday; had no problem with returning to 5f for the first time in over a year and a likely candidate. |

27th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Two wins on the AW this year, the latest at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in May; not the easiest to predict, though, and has followed that success with two lesser efforts; not quite sure what to expect. |

1st Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

Soft-ground 5f win last April on one of her two visits to this track; three wins in the meantime, latest on Wolverhampton AW (6f) this May; no show on latest start but plenty of 2023 turf form (acts on any going) gives her a big shout. |

Didn't run badly in a stronger race here last month (6f), going with plenty of enthusiasm in this headgear for the first time; down 2lb and she should give it another good go. |

7th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Beat 16 rivals when winning a Class 6 nursery at Leicester last October (6f, good); first two starts this year weren't too bad but quiet more recently, including a 7l fourth at Chelmsford on Saturday; tongue-tie tried the last twice left off and cheekpieces go on. |

9st 12lb |
Beat 16 rivals when winning a Class 6 nursery at Leicester last October (6f, good); first two starts this year weren't too bad but she took a backward step at Newmarket a fortnight ago (tongue-tied for the first time, retained); better than that but others still appeal more. |
