6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won the Listed Golden Rose at Lingfield in November 2023 and landed a valuable 6f Class 2 handicap here (off 106) the following summer; has finally slipped back down the weights, giving notice of a return to form (third) in an added visor at Lingfield (7f) 51 days ago; respected. |

3rd 4 (7) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Good runs few and far between since August 2024; should be well handicapped but that has been the case for a while and he hasn't shown much this year; now tried in a visor; stable also run Heathcliff. |
20/1 |

9th 1 (2) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Not the force of old but he ran well when third in a hot Newcastle handicap last May (6f; RPR 108) and he races off a 7lb lower mark today; neither subsequent run has been comparable but this is a drop in grade and he can't be ruled out. |

22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Few chances on AW but he ran well over C&D in November off 3lb higher; returned to winning ways in a Racing League handicap at Chepstow two weeks ago (6f, good to soft); respected despite a 4lb rise and his draw in stall 1. |
10/1 |

1st 1 (4) |
8th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

He's had a mixed campaign but has shown spark on occasions and was stretched by 7f last time; now below last winning mark and he's not ruled out. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Much better known as a sprinter but has form over 7f; now 3lb lower than when placed at Goodwood (6f, heavy) in May and his more recent efforts were perfectly respectable; back up in trip with William Buick up; a possible. |

Three wins during his latest spell on AW; close second to Dark Thirty in this contest two years ago but needs to rebound, having been comfortably held returned to turf 17 days ago. |

14th 3 (12) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
2-4 at Doncaster; ended 2025 in rude health on the AW, winning handicaps at Southwell (6f), Wolverhampton and Lingfield (both 5f); his form has dipped slightly on his last two starts but it's not out of the question that this return to Doncaster will pique his interest. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Opened his AW account in Kempton contest (6f) in December; has remained in form since, without necessarily building on that success; likely needs to raise his game in this field. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 3 (2) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Made his AW breakthrough when scoring over C&D in December; matched that form when second over C&D in January and big player with Billy Loughnane taking over in the saddle for the first time. |

Made his AW breakthrough when scoring over C&D near the start of last month and it was a creditable effort when close fifth of 12 at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; solid claims from the same mark. |

9th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer; ran well for second at Epsom in July (6f, good to soft); less convincing in his three starts since, albeit latest run on heavy is easy to excuse; risky but not impossible that this first taste of a Class 5 handicap will prompt a revival. |

25th Sep 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

9th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Made a bold bid when runner-up off a reduced mark at Epsom (6f, good to soft) last month but he failed to beat a rival in a big field at Windsor (behind Supreme King) last time; has something to prove again after that and his last win was over two years ago. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Nine wins on AW; scored at Bath on penultimate outing but is only 2-23 on turf and latest effort confirms that marks in the 80s are probably beyond him, at least nowadays, in this sphere. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf but he's capable of useful 6f form on grass and made short work of his rivals at Bath (extended 5f, good) last week; now 6lb higher but this mark isn't beyond him on past exploits; would have welcomed rain but still considered. |
5/1 |

1st 3 (12) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Nine-time AW winner who won three in a row during the winter and was a creditable fifth in Class 3 at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) two weeks ago; record of 1-21 on turf but he's on a lower mark in this sphere and he had a close call at Windsor last autumn; dangerous. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has a poor strike-rate since 2022 and isn't particularly solid on 2025 efforts; however, drops in grade off a reduced mark and can't be dismissed; very similar type to Illusionist. |
11/1 |

26th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
He's dropped to a dangerous mark and showed the odd hint of spark on occasions towards the end of last year; can go well fresh but he's been regressive and has a poor strike-rate over the last few years. |

9st 3lb |
5yo who improved his turf record to 3-9 when justifying support at Leicester (6f, soft) last month; up 3lb for that narrow win but he beat a clear second and this return to forecast quicker ground is no problem; respected for in-form yard. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Smooth winner of a Class 4 handicap at Wolverhampton last month; runner-up in three runs since and highly likely she's still attractively handicapped; hard to see why she would reverse Pontefract form with Unequal Love on these terms though. |
20/1 |

2nd 8 (4) |
7th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning over C&D early last month and has performed at least as well in two starts on turf since, looking unlucky not to win when dead-heating for second at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) nine days ago; only 1lb higher and one to be interested in. |
