23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
5lb lower than last winning mark and came close to taking advantage when finding only Vantheman too strong at Hamilton (5f, good) last week; meets that rival on 5lb better terms; should be involved in the shake-up once more. |
12/1 |

2nd 11 (8) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner who boasts a good record at this time of year; will always be reliant on some luck given his hold-up style, which he hasn't had this year; on a handy mark when things do fall his way again, though, and is one to consider. |
6/1 |

5th 7 (10) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Trouble in running on both AW starts last month and same story at Pontefract last time, in the circumstances doing well to finish eighth of 13 from 4lb out of the handicap; he has a good record at Pontefract but could play a leading role off his proper mark today if getting the breaks. |

13th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

All three wins over C&D; should come good again at some point this winter but quiet this autumn and may need a bit more weight off her back. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Course regular who's going beyond 5f for the first time in almost two years; remains consistent and is on a winning mark but others are preferred over this trip. |
10/1 |

6th 8 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
In-form 8yo, placed at Wolverhampton and Newcastle on his last two starts; goes back up in class but it's difficult to rule out this eight-time course winner who should get a good pace to aim at. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 1 (7) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Eight of his nine wins on the AW have been at Wolverhampton and the other came over this C&D; ran well but was no match for the winner when second of nine at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) nine days ago; claims off his last winning mark. |

13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Having slipped in the weights he returned to form with a close third at Southwell five weeks ago; won't be inconvenienced by this stiffer test and he is one to take seriously. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 9 (1) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Shaped well on his return from a 258-day absence when fourth at Newcastle in December; yet to kick on from that and others look more persuasive. |
14/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Not at his best since returning from a nine-month absence, just fifth to Digital over C&D last time out; more is required from this C&D winner. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown inconsistent form, mostly on AW, this year and ran below par over C&D in most recent turf attempt; far from sure to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
20/1 |
|
5 (7) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won off 9lb higher at Bath (5.6f) last August but he's been up and down since then and has been well held in last three starts; has plenty to prove again and he's not run over this trip since 2021. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Should be making a big impact off this sort of mark but mixed record early in the year and well held, albeit after 164 days off, at Brighton five weeks ago; others look safer. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Seven-time winner; style of racing leaves him a hostage to fortune and he has met trouble in two of his three runs for Ben Haslam; has the ability to win at this level and stall 1, while not optimal, should at least keep him clear of some of the traffic. |
9/2 |
|
4th 10 (5) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |

Seven-time winner with bucketloads of placed efforts to his name; both runs for this yard have been respectable and the return of cheekpieces is a definite plus. |

2nd May 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Best form has been on the AW and now having only his third run on grass; could be well handicapped but this year's efforts leave him with much to prove and soft ground is a complete unknown. |

24th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dropped right out on his sole course run, in May, but comes into it on his best turf form and also some AW handicap runs over the winter; capable of a big run at this easier level. |
8/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
13th Jun 2024 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Now 15lb lower than when winning at Chelmsford last November; that is indicative of a decline in his form though and the return to turf didn't help matters at Bath three weeks ago. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of dash, setting a good pace at Catterick 17 days ago before weakening into third (Tuscan Point second but 8lb worse off today); likely to make a beeline for the stands' rail and more minor money could be on the cards. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
The old man of the party but he still likes to get on with it and has a good record here; solid comeback second on AW in January wasn't built on but he's back down to the same mark he won this race from last year; that was a fourth C&D win and he has to enter calculations. |
8/1 |
|
11th 5 (4) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner; ended 2025 campaign with a C&D second and filled the same position on his return in January, again over C&D; backward step last time but capable of a prominent showing off this mark. |

24th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Thrown in on some of her Irish form but she's proving frustrating for new connections; ran well for second at Southwell a fortnight ago but she wasn't in quite the same form at Newcastle last week (off 3lb lower); another change of accessories today; drawn widest. |

9th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual 5f turf scorer in Ireland, but despite having dropped well below her last winning mark she has been disappointing in three starts for her new yard; the switch to first-time cheekpieces will need to make a difference. |

2nd Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Became disappointing for William Haggas and she was well beaten in one run for Adrian Keatley in November; something to prove from the widest stall on stable debut. |

17th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Expensive to follow for William Haggas this year but her AW form back in spring gives her claims off a reduced mark; sold for 8,000gns in July; drawn wide after her absence and others look safer. |
