30th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Back to form to win at Catterick last time (7f, good to firm); just as effective on the AW (C&D winner last December); chance. |

C&D scorer who hinted at a revival when seventh of 12 over C&D two weeks ago; he's very much one to consider off a 2lb lower mark. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Course winner who returned from five months off with a very good second of nine over C&D last month, faring best of those held up; a player nudged up 1lb. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 (9) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Clearcut win in first-time blinkers on turf here (7f, soft) last June; several creditable efforts since but he was disappointing at Bath in his final run last autumn; has bit to prove with headgear missing after five months and this is competitive for the grade. |
12/1 |

7 (6) |
20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Has fared reasonably well since blinkers were fitted and again competitive at Brighton (7f) recently; has form over 1m but it's been a long time since he ran over this far. |

9st 1lb |
Five-time AW winner who made it 3-4 over C&D with a game success last Friday; has a penalty on this step back up in grade but she should get a decent tow into this race and could be in the mix again. |

All four wins on the AW including over C&D; has mainly held her form well despite being kept busy and is just 1lb above her last winning mark, but she needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last time. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time C&D winner, latterly off 4lb higher in February; fine on Polytrack but the return here is an obvious plus off a career-low mark and he's another with claims in an open handicap. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with a win at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in December; has had some ups and downs since but he came from off the pace to finish a creditable third at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) two weeks ago; now 3lb lower than for his last success and has claims if he can build on that last run. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 6 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Ended 2025 with victory at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in December and largely in good nick this term, a close fifth in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap two weeks ago; not ruled out off a 2lb lower mark. |

19th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Good third to Outreach over C&D on Boxing Day but good runs are scarce nowadays and she was well beaten over C&D on Monday; cheekpieces go on. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 (3) |
15th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On long losing run but she turned things around with a creditable third over C&D on Boxing Day and was just behind Royal Redemption in that race; meets her old rival on similar terms in this classified event and has each-way claims again. |
8/1 |

3rd 12 (8) |
26th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

22nd Dec 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Unexposed 3yo who returned from a break with an improved third on her handicap debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack; 33-1) two weeks ago; that was eyecatching from off the pace and she now drops back in trip but this well-bred filly has plenty of speed in her pedigree; interesting contender. |
5/1 |

3rd 13 (12) |
6th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Fair form when fourth in novices at Lingfield (1m) and Newbury (7f) in the spring; this Zoustar filly returns from six months off for her handicap debut and can't be totally dismissed. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All of his four turf wins have been on good or slower including heavy; his last win was at Bath (5.6f) last September but he's finished down the field there in his last three runs; now drops back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark; regular hood is removed. |
25/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Ties in with a couple of today's rivals on C&D reappearance form but ideally needs a return to further; yet to score over a bare 5f; gained his Bath win over the extended 5f. |
10/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |

16-race maiden who was C&D third last August on handicap debut but has been running over shorter since October; no persuasive form, particularly as he's 6lb out of the handicap. |
