27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Came from off the pace to win a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in fine style in December; beaten twice since but she hasn't run badly; fully exposed but a strong pace would enhance her claims. |
12/1 |
|
5th 7 (5) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Six-time AW winner but has high mileage and is more exposed than most of today's rivals; gained her most recent success (penultimate start) in Class 5 and faces a stiffer task at this level. |
16/1 |

4th 4 (12) |
4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
She's 1-16 on turf as opposed to 5-38 on AW, which tempers enthusiasm; well beaten in two runs after a break. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
10-47 on AW, with all bar one of those wins coming at Newcastle (7f-1m2f); now sits 3lb below his last winning mark, and Tom Kiely-Marshall's 5lb claim is a bonus, but seems to have lost his way; may strip fitter for 7f course comeback run. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Nine course wins to his name, mainly in the early months of the year; 50-1 for his C&D return a month ago, when well behind a few of these, and needs a big step forward. |
25/1 |
|
12th 12 (11) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Nine of his ten wins have come at this track (7f-1m2f) but last success was 13 months ago and he finished down the field here in his final two runs last year; looks opposable back from a break. |

Returned to form when winning two classified events at Southwell (1m) last month but he flopped in his hat-trick bid there (handicap) last time; has bit to prove again after that heavy defeat and he's 1-17 on turf. |

10th Feb 2024 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-13 since his successful racecourse debut and although he ran well when fourth of ten on stable debut here (1m) in December, he has failed to beat a rival in both starts since; plenty to prove. |
33/1 |
|
12th 10 (3) |
4th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Trained by Richard Hannon for a successful debut; has gone 0-12 in the meantime but it was a respectable stable debut over C&D in December and perhaps Chelmsford didn't suit last time. |

11th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Has been running well since March and she's won at Musselburgh (1m/7f, good) in her last three starts; up another 4lb but she's a strong traveller who still looks feasibly treated and is a big player again in her bid for a four-timer. |
5/2 |

7 (8) |
22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has been running well since March and always looked the most likely winner over C&D three weeks ago (good); fair shout off 4lb higher provided the ground doesn't soften up too much. |

Three wins on turf but yet to fire for current yard; on a career-low mark and first-time blinkers are now equipped alongside the hood; not yet one to give up on for respected stable. |

Free-going sort who hasn't been at his best for his new stable on AW this year; now 10lb lower than for his Ayr win last summer (7f, good), however, and no surprise were the return to turf to have a positive effect. |

Won this race in 2022 and finished second in it last year; much lower rated this time around and last month's third over C&D was more encouraging; should have a part to play. |
