21st Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Seemingly back in good form when third over C&D in July but two very disappointing runs (8.6f/7f) have followed; dangerously well handicapped now but a very hard filly to predict; visor removed after one use. |

10th 3 (9) |
20th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins on Tapeta last year including one over C&D; third of eight (again over C&D) last month, but failed to beat a rival over 8.6f back here last time; return to this trip should suit and 8lb below her last winning mark, but not quite sure what to expect; visor given a go. |

13th 12 (6) |
1st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won three times on Tapeta last year including twice at this track (6f/7f); quiet after returning in April, but put up a better performance when third of eight back here (7f) last month; down another 1lb, but is still to fully convince over this far. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner who bounced right back to form when second of ten back here eight days ago; already due a 2lb rise for that but stall 13 is far from ideal. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 8 (5) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three Tapeta wins, including C&D; recent form figures not inspiring but she didn't run too badly when sixth of 14 over C&D on her first run back from wind surgery and an excuse emerged last time (reportedly lost action). |
18/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has gained last three wins on AW, including latest start; effective on turf but has never won away from Leicester in this sphere; something to prove back up in grade. |
10/1 |
|
1st 2 (9) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three 7f wins on AW elsewhere, most recently at Southwell in April; a quick return didn't pay off there next time and he was always behind when returned to turf at Leicester last month; has run well over C&D in the past, though, so he may be more himself this time. |

20th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Maiden who hasn't progressed from a close fourth on the AW last winter; hopes rest on the visor turning things around on this step up in trip (cheekpieces didn't do much for her). |
25/1 |
|
7th 4 (2) |
20th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ran well in all three starts over 6f/7f on the Newcastle Tapeta late last year, but has gone the wrong way since including on last month's reappearance/turf debut; enough to prove in the returning cheekpieces. |
10/1 |

10th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Solely raced on Tapeta, though on pedigree turf will suit; 3lb lower now than for December's close Newcastle fourth (7f), but refusal to settle three times either side of that tempers confidence in her capitalising. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three course wins (6f-1m) and a multitude of placed efforts, including a close third to Saytaar (Harry The Rogue second) over C&D in March; has struggled on turf in his last three appearances (7.5f-1m2f) but his mark has eased accordingly. |

9th 8 (4) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
3-21 on the AW but 0-16 on the grass, never in the first two; beaten about 10l in last two races; not hard to turn elsewhere. |
14/1 |

6th 3 (8) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
All three wins from 36 starts have been on the AW at Newcastle (6f/1m); solid effort when third at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last month but he needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Pontefract (1m) three weeks ago; has stamina to prove for this longer trip. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
She's 5lb lower than when winning at Newcastle (1m, AW) in February and when running well at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) in June; she's 0-12 on turf and unproven at this trip, and she's been below par at favourite course Newcastle on her last two starts (1m). |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

Took this in 2025 and also scored over C&D in February; not at her best when 11th over C&D last time but she's the sort to bounce back. |

Three-time C&D winner, including this race last year, who ran well when seventh of 24 in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot last week; she's below her last winning mark and has strong claims back down in grade. |

9st 9lb |
Refitted with blinkers when finally gaining a first win (switched to front-running) in 7f classified event at Brighton eight days ago; a repeat of that form in retained headgear will see him firmly in the picture again. |

1st 7 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Still a maiden after 32 starts and sometimes races too freely but was respectable third in this grade at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) in June, after a break, and ought to be suited by this move back up in trip. |
3/1 |

3rd 3 (5) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has claims on a couple of runner-up efforts over 6f (good to firm) last summer but he's still a maiden after 31 starts and was well held in classified events in his final two runs last winter; now returns to sprinting but he needs to revive after 165 days off. |

Only win in 20 races was at Nottingham in July 2023 (6f, soft); very well handicapped on that form but mainly disappointing this season and hard to fancy. |

5th 8 (6) |
14th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Won a Nottingham handicap (6f, soft) last July but she's 0-14 since and has finished down the field in most of her runs this season; now 12lb lower than for her win but she's finished behind Alice's Impact a couple of times recently and others are more convincing. |
12/1 |

5th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |

Has done most racing in sprints and has regressed this year; stamina will be tested again, round a stiff course from the outside stall, and she's some way down the pecking order. |
