17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won over C&D off this mark last summer but does most racing now over further and wants a good test at this trip; said to have run flat last time but does have his good and bad days now for a yard responsible for two others; 2-4 for Kaiya Fraser. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January and close fourth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February before winning over this C&D (good) a fortnight ago; it was a tight finish but he's gone up just 2lb; again in calculations. |

1st 7 (4) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
6lb lower than when winning from a poor draw at Chester (7.6f, good to firm) last August and just 1lb higher than when successful at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January; ran well when a close fourth of 12 at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time and capable of playing a part; stable also runs Kelpie Grey. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner; well handicapped, being 8lb lower than for his Chester win last May, but he didn't fire at that meeting two weeks ago and he now has a point to prove. |
12/1 |

13th 12 (6) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Prominent racer with a very good Chester record, including a win in this race on good to firm in 2024 (also third on soft in 2023); off for 20 months prior to finishing well held at the Newmarket Craven meeting three weeks ago but he led for long enough to think plenty of ability remains and this has presumably been the target; could bounce back to form with a bang. |
5/1 |

13th 2 (8) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up in this race in 2024 when it was staged as a Class 2; made all at Chester (7.5f, good to firm) on his next start and it was a solid fourth back there (7f, good to soft) when last seen 20 months ago; yard going well and handicapper has given him a shot too; watch the market. |

Well below par in two races (elsewhere) since returned to AW but could revive back at Wolverhampton; has form figures of 7112441 over C&D, most recently defying a 2lb higher mark last March; not dismissed. |

19th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

7f specialist who has to put a moderate effort at Southwell last time behind him, but is back off the same mark as when gaining his third Wolverhampton success back in March; has gone close on Polytrack and shouldn't be far away. |

Acts on soft; close third on penultimate start, inconsistent otherwise this year; three-time winner at Chester and has possibilities back here, provided he takes well to first-time visor. |

1st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |

7f course winner who had dropped 6lb lower than when successful at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last December when beaten less than a length into third of 11 at Ripon (1m, good to soft) 12 days ago; races off the same mark but this trip looks to be right on the limit of his stamina. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
13yo who has won on 12 occasions, the latest in December 2024 and his C&D win came before most of today's rivals were born; not disgraced on reappearance and he's now 13lb lower than this time last year, but his last turf win was in 2022; not the percentage call. |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

13yo who has won on 12 occasions, the latest in December 2024 at Wolverhampton; on a good mark but he ended last season with some below-par efforts and is likely best watched on his first start for 194 days. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who won twice in the second half of last year, the latest in a big field at Thirsk (7f, good) in September; went close on last month's reappearance at Newcastle (7f, AW) and he can make another bold bid. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 (4) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who is a C&D winner and added another AW success at Southwell (7f) last July; ended 2025 with a good third back at Southwell (7f again) in October; formerly trained by Ann Duffield; claims if ready to roll after five months off. |
12/1 |

3rd 8 (5) |
30th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who has won three times on the AW, the latest over C&D in July; scored at Thirsk (7f, good) last month, but needs to put a lacklustre effort at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month behind him, while an easy lead seems unlikely. |

Veteran who's become hard to win with and been on the downgrade this year, coming 22lb down the weights; late in the day to be making his Tapeta debut in a new form of headgear and will need some luck if dropped in as usual from stall 11. |

27th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

On a long losing run but he's well handicapped on last year's best efforts and was beaten just a neck at Leicester (7f, soft) last time on his second start back from a break; has won twice here (6f/7f, good to firm) and it's a course that often brings out the best in him; firmly in calculations. |

7th Feb 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
No win since 2021 but has good recent form, having been placed at Kempton in three of his last four races (7f/1m; the hood worn each time is now removed); thereabouts provided he continues in similar vein. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
31st Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Off the track for 381 days prior to his return in October and he's run two good races and two lesser ones since reappearing; the two good efforts have both come at this track, latterly over 1m 25 days ago; looks a key player back at 7f with Rossa Ryan retaining the ride. |

27th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Done most winning round easy, turning courses, so has that in his favour; isn't as consistent now, which is no surprise given his age, but retains most of his ability and is fine on Tapeta; the harder they go the better for him. |
8/1 |
|
4th 2 (9) |
30th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Veteran now but he ran really well in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m) and the Victoria Cup at Ascot (7f) in the spring and took advantage of a slight drop in grade at Chester (7.5f) last time, underlining how well he goes on soft ground; has an excellent course record and should remain very competitive after a 5lb rise. |
