2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Three good runs over the winter (two of them from five runs in Bahrain) but he has struggled in two 7f runs back in Britain since April; handicapper slow to relent and this step up to 1m isn't sure to spark a revival. |
16/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
7yo who was well beaten in Bahrain and at Chester on his last two starts; however, he was drawn wide at Chester and showed some good form in Bahrain in January; he's run really well on both previous attempts at this C&D and is not ruled out each-way off a competitive mark. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |

Campaigned back in Bahrain since December, best efforts when placed twice over 6f; well treated on historical data but hasn't won a domestic race since 2023; returns to 7f for first time since last July. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Fine servant down the years but he hasn't won over 6f since August 2022; on a good mark and can pop up soon but would like to see more from him before getting involved. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Fine stable servant with eight wins to his name, two of them here; probably needed the run when down the field at the Dante meeting; the usual headgear returns today and Jack Nicholls claims a handy 5lb; quite interesting. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

8yo who was inconsistent last season and lacks a recent run; however, he's just 1lb higher than when both second of 13 over C&D (good) last May and winning at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) next time; not ruled out each-way. |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Has a stunning record at this meeting, winning four of his five attempts, including this race for the last three years (soft, good and good to soft); well held of late but he ran no worse last time out than he had in his prep race before the 2023 win and he's weighted to have a big chance despite being 3lb wrong; Hollie Doyle rode for his 2021 win; drying ground could be the sticking point, however. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Unplaced in this race in 2021 and 2023 and short of his best when last seen on AW in February; his last three wins have come in the same 5f handicap at Glorious Goodwood and that race looks a better fit than today's. |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Winless on turf since 2021 but showed more on his second run back from a break last time, is now 2lb lower and this is easier than the handicaps he's used to contesting; tends to be held up and a speed-favouring 5f in a small field may not be optimal but he's capable. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Well handicapped on the pick of last year's AW form and he may have needed his comeback run at Thirsk in May; however, this 9yo was well beaten and is without a win on turf since September 2021; others are more compelling. |
40/1 |

Veteran with a mind of his own and refused to leave the parade ring on last intended start in November; however, perfectly capable of a big run off this mark and he's gone well fresh in the past. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Regressive 8yo who is yet to add to his Listed AW success in February 2021; did nothing wrong when second under Sam Feilden at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) last month but the forecast rain is unlikely to aid his cause here; younger rivals are preferred. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
9yo who was well beaten at 33-1 at Redcar a fortnight ago; however, he may have needed that first run since January and he completed an AW hat-trick late last year, the first leg coming over this C&D; he's won here three times and could bounce back with a bold show returned to Southwell. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

Enjoyed a terrific spell on AW at the end of 2025, winning four times; given a break since a lesser effort behind Spring Is Sprung at Southwell in January; runner-up in this race last year but off 14lb lower. |
25/1 |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has only managed to win two of his last 31 starts, though he got it right when recording his second C&D success last month (four of these behind); had excuses back here last time (blindfold removed late) and he's a big player if things pan out right this time. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |

Poor effort at Epsom, behind two of these, last time will need forgiving but he boasts a fair record for Billy Loughnane (won for him last summer off 6lb higher); handicapper given him a chance and it wouldn't be a shock were he to pop up. |
