31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 7lb |
Not the force of old (one-time useful AW handicapper) but runner-up in modest maiden hurdle company three times in Britain this summer; well beaten back in handicap company at Galway earlier this month but okay fourth of eight in a Tramore maiden hurdle last time (2m1f, good to yielding); place chance. |

Not the force of old (one-time useful AW handicapper) but runner-up in modest maiden hurdle company in Britain this summer at Stratford (twice) and after making most (carrying head awkwardly, hung right) at Worcester (2m, good); no show on handicap debut at Galway and back into maiden company probably with a bit to find. |

Not the force of old (one-time useful Flat handicapper) but runner-up on latest three starts in modest maiden hurdle company in Britain; twice at Stratford and most recently after making most (carrying head awkwardly, hung right) at Worcester (2m, good); handicap debut and doesn't exactly appear thrown in. |

12th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple C&D winner, the latest last August when rated 5lb higher; obvious chance if anywhere near that level but he has been struggling more recently; the return to 1m2f will help but not a solid option. |

6th 1 (3) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 3 |

Eight-time AW winner and first and second in two of his four races here; didn't run at all badly last time at Lingfield (1m2f) but looks vulnerable at the minute in a race of this nature. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Good C&D record includes a win in this last year off 5lb higher; back on form when narrowly denied at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) and things went wrong from the start (stumbled) when well behind Westridge at Goodwood since; could bounce back. |
18/1 |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Has a mixed 1-6 record at Goodwood, with the win in 2019, but he won a 17-runner race at the York Ebor meeting last August and went down by a neck at Sandown this month, both over 1m2f on good to firm but the ground was not an issue previously; now a 9yo but 4lb lower than for that York win; drawn wide but likely to be delivered late anyway. |
20/1 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Resilient 9yo who can still give it plenty in competitive handicaps, as when beating 16 rivals at York (about 1m2f, good to firm; off 5lb higher) last August; however, he has less obvious claims on subsequent handicap runs, including back at York in June. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Four of his five wins have been on the AW, his only turf success coming at Newmarket in 2023 (1m4f, good); ran a couple of fair races on the AW earlier this year but pulled up in the Duke Of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot last time. |
25/1 |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
6th, 15th and 11th in his three 1m4f handicaps at this meeting; 11-week break is not a concern but slow starts have become an unwelcome habit and he's proved far more potent on AW than turf in recent years, so probably won't be able just yet to exploit what should be a favourable mark. |

Returning to AW should be in his favour but there isn't much room for error off this mark and the 1m4f trip is a concern. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |

Five turf wins but has done most of his winning on the AW; surprising to see blinkers back on having won in a visor at Chester last month and then beaten only 4l in a Class 2 handicap at Goodwood; if that doesn't backfire then has possibilities. |

27th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Smart earlier in his career (including Listed placed); met trouble at a crucial stage when seventh (Teumessias Fox fifth) of 13 in 1m2f Newcastle handicap on his recent AW debut after another long absence, showing enough to suggest a good chunk of his ability remains; fine at 1m4f; no surprise were he to go well. |

Smart middle-distance handicapper in his youth; the handicapper was in charge when last seen, however, and he's only been dropped 6lb after a 524-day absence. |

29th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Back-to-back AW wins at the end of 2023; tongue tied, respectable third in 1m2f handicaps at Redcar (soft; Zetland Gold Cup) and Haydock (good to firm; six ran) on last two starts and had similar form three starts back on his second crack at about 1m4f, but he needs a bit extra. |
7/2 |

3rd 1 (7) |
22nd Jun 2024 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Hasn't progressed in quite the manner that looked likely after back-to-back AW wins at the end of 2023 but his latest third of ten in the Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar (1m2f, soft) was a creditable effort; likely to be competitive if in similar form. |
7/2 |

3rd 6 (2) |
27th May 2024 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Returned from break with novice and handicap AW wins at about 1m2f in late 2023, but he hasn't put it together at this trip and 1m4f in three starts since (cheekpieces latest; now tongue tied); the return to 1m2f can suit but soft ground is not sure to improve matters. |

All seven wins have been on the AW, two of them over C&D, but his last three runs have been abysmal; perhaps he'll be freshened up by ten weeks off but he's difficult to recommend. |

10th 7 (11) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
All seven wins have been on AW and latest was over C&D in January; found more progress when a close third off this mark at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) in April but he's been tailed off back on turf in last two runs; now returns to scene of his last success but he needs to bounce back near best. |

Prolific winner (7-13 on Tapeta) who switches to a visor from cheekpieces having twice finished held off her career-high mark last month; this trip's as far as she wants in this company and she needs to find a bit more for the new form of headgear. |

8th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 3 |

C&D winner who has only ever raced on the AW and has a fine straike-rate on it (8-17); not seen to best effect when fourth of six in a slowly run contest at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) last Saturday, but should be suited by the return to this sort of test; shortlisted. |

Fine on Tapeta but has done most winning round Chelmsford, always over 1m2f; generally consistent in recent times, without looking quite as good, and has to prove his stamina going beyond 1m4f for the first time; the usual headgear comes off. |

Formerly a front-runner but more often held up these days; finished a 4l seventh at Wolverhampton in last two starts but he's 5-9 at Chelmsford and was runner-up over C&D in June; has possibilities back at this track and he needs a close look with Hollie Doyle booked. |

Not the force of old but gained his fifth success, at Kempton (1m, AW) in May; beaten 4l at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last month in an 18-runner contest but this smaller field should play to his strengths (all five wins have been in races with less than ten runners). |
