19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two wins over C&D but his mark suffered after a comfortable win at Sandown (1m, good) around a year ago; handicapper's releasing his grip and last time's fifth at Ffos Las was a step in the right direction, however; might go well. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won three over this trip last year, twice from the front on turf, latterly off a 3lb lower mark; well held in two runs back but this is less competitive under Billy Loughnane and he may well be able to get his own way in this smaller field; possibilities if so. |

Largely consistent since beginning this year with two 1m Polytrack wins (one here) and lost out only narrowly after enduring a wide trip at Kempton three weeks ago; has to take a 3lb rise on the chin but probably won't be far away. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

29th Jul 2023 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Just fair form in three runs over 7f but he retains potential having been short of room when a one-paced third of 12 at Haydock (good) three weeks ago; should be at least as effective over this longer trip and moves into handicaps on a workable mark considering his fairly useful pedigree; shortlisted. |

Only 1-24 but ran his best race yet for current connections when beaten a length in this new headgear combination at Chelmsford; has won on Tapeta and should be well handicapped. |

9th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Generally consistent for three yards but has only won once from 23 starts, that coming over further on Tapeta; is down to a career-low mark, though, and needs a second look in first-time cheekpieces. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Out of sorts on turf in her last two runs, but six of her seven wins have been on Tapeta (including over C&D) and latest was off 3lb at Wolverhampton in December; usually comes from off the pace and she's one to keep an eye on back in this sphere. |
20/1 |

10th 16 (12) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

She's dropped below her last winning mark and has run some reasonable races on turf this summer, but without suggesting a win is imminent; she's just 1-20 on grass as opposed to 6-43 on AW. |
25/1 |

11th 10 (5) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than grass but she's in better form than her last two turf runs suggest, short of room at Ascot on latest; less obvious than several of these but not ruled out. |

Triple AW winner (including here) who was on a long losing run until popping up in a Windsor classified (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; had previously looked a little unlucky when second in a similar event over C&D in March; chance. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
More wins this year, two over hurdles and two on the Flat (about 1m4f, good), but perhaps found out by a career-high mark at Ascot and Lingfield (back at 1m6f, good to firm) since; probably has work to do again. |

Has won six races on the Flat at up to 1m6f and this year is going particularly well, with two hurdle wins and now two over about 1m4f on Flat (on good ground at Salisbury and Chester); raised 4lb to career-high mark but should be fine back on good to firm and he's never been better. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

All three wins at about 1m, most recently over C&D in June (good; has won on good to firm), but his form has taken a turn for the worse since, over 1m (on two occasions) and 1m4f; has plenty to prove; usually wears aids but not today. |
16/1 |

7th 5 (9) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has done a lot of his racing at 1m and has often pulled hard when going further, including in the hood (back on tonight; tongue-tie comes off) but does stay this far; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark and needs to leave two lesser efforts behind. |
