25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
AW wins at 1m and 1m2f and he's 0-8 on turf; refused to race on second run back from an absence and, following his fading fifth at Redcar (1m2f) recently, a further drop in the weights could be in order; at least this is a drop in grade, though. |

30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Not the force of old on AW and he refused to race at Lingfield in February; made it 0-7 on turf when 5l sixth of nine here (1m, good to firm) last Monday but that wasn't devoid of promise as he was denied a clear run and kept on pretty nicely; he's not ruled out each-way back up in trip. |

Very well handicapped on AW form up to 2024 but inferior on turf (0-6); down the field in January (7f, AW) following an absence and refused to race in February; arrives with plenty to prove. |

Not won on turf since Windsor success in May 2022 (1m, good to firm); has won on AW since; back on a good mark, fair fourth at Windsor last time (1m, good to firm) so could go well. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
8yo who has been in fine form this spring, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) last month then going close at Lingfield (1m, AW) and Nottingham (1m, good); there's every chance he'll be bang there once more. |
9/1 |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ten-time winner split between turf and AW; his last success was at Kempton (1m) last month and he backed that up with a close third under a penalty at Lingfield (Polytrack); did well to hang in there from a wide draw last time and he's respected off same mark back on turf. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 (10) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Tended to do his winning in the past in batches, which bodes well under a 4lb penalty for last Monday's Kempton victory; well over two years snice he won off a mark this high and hasn't been at his best in two previous runs here but needs considering. |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Drawn a blank since January 2024 but he hasn't had much clemency from the handicapper; latest AW run saw him finish fourth at Newcastle in June having met trouble in running and he will be in the shake-up if anywhere near that level. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Four wins have come on good to soft/soft ground later in the year and he wants a good test over this trip on good ground; turned in a solid comeback effort over C&D in March but there's little room for error off this mark and he has his quirks. |
8/1 |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Hasn't fulfilled the huge promise of his early form for William Haggas but he retains a good chunk of ability and enjoyed a resurgence last autumn, notably when a comfortable winner over C&D (soft) in October; disappointed when last seen but he should be in for another good year; back from a break is perhaps not the time to catch him but market should give clues. |

Both turf wins on soft and won a Listed race on AW in November; ducks and dives regarding the trip but he nearly made his first 6f turf handicap a winning one at Goodwood recently; back up 4lb but has course form at 7f; interesting. |
