7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
18 months since his last win but he is fully effective over C&D and he ran well for third here when last seen in January; this might not be the time to catch him. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 9 (6) |
26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All ten wins have been on AW including five at this track; runner-up off 2lb higher over C&D in September but it has been tough going since and others look safer. |
33/1 |

4th 6 (5) |
28th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Better at 6f these days and can be given a pass for his latest Southwell run (5f); second over C&D on his penultimate start and he is one to consider at this level. |

13th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Picked off in the final strides in a 6f classified event at Lingfield nine days ago but dropped away to finish a remote eighth at Newcastle on Monday (tried in a hood which is left off today); needs better for today's drop back to 5f. |
7/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
8th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Record of 0-16 but he was only just caught by the favourite in a classified event at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) last Thursday; hood is now added into the mix and he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form. |
100/30 |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Back on the up following a wind op in May, placed at Bath and over C&D before making all in a small-field handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; a 4lb rise asks more of her but she should give another good account; stable also run So Smart. |
100/30 |

1st 1 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Well suited by undulating tracks and has come back to form since undergoing wind surgery; now 3lb below her last winning mark and Harry Vigors has plenty of experience for 5lb in this company; down in class and it's hard to find any negatives. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
A few near-misses to go with her C&D win and she bounced back last time from a string of poor efforts on her first start since undergoing wind surgery; on a fair mark if she builds on that. |

Threatened to pick up a small race here early in the year but has had endless chances and recent efforts haven't been good; only holds outside claims. |

30th Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
It remains to be seen what he is capable of on turf after just two novice events and a heavy-ground 1m handicap, all in 2023 (well held in each); trail has gone cold since an okay winter on Tapeta, however. |

30th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
5f-6f winner who acts on a sound surface; has been thereabouts on his last couple of starts without threatening to win; not ruled out each-way. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 7 (9) |
24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Ten-time winner but eight of those have been on AW and she's been generally disappointing since her classified win at Southwell (6f) in March; didn't run badly back at that track (fourth of ten) last week but she needs to build on that. |
12/1 |
|
4th 8 (4) |

11th Mar 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Veteran who retains enthusiasm, finishing second over C&D in January; likely a couple will prove stronger all the same. |
20/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
9th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Now a 12yo but he went close over C&D two starts back and appeared to be undone by the sharp 5f when fifth of six at Lingfield last time; not easy to rule him out. |

16th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Still a maiden but ran encouragingly at Lingfield (6f) last week when back from an absence and making debut for new yard; first win is possible if she builds on that effort. |

26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Opened his turf account when making a winning yard debut off 7lb lower at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last month; placed in two starts since, latest at that same track over this trip (ahead of Cooperation); comes here in good form and looks likely to go well again. |
3/1 |
|
2 (7) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained first turf win over 6f here (good to firm; stable debut) on penultimate start, and backed up with a solid effort (runner-up) at Doncaster; no issue with this longer trip and, while a combined 7lb rise will make life tougher, he's the one who arrives in the best form. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Five-time AW winner who made his belated breakthrough on turf when scoring on recent stable debut at Redcar (6f); up 5lb but he was as good as ever last time and has claims if he can back that up; last run was on good to firm but he's also effective on good to soft. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
14-race maiden who has poor claims on most of his form; this drop back in trip could help but he was tailed off at Kempton (1m) two weeks ago and it's not hard to look elsewhere. |
66/1 |
|
10th 10 (2) |
22nd Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Has poor claims on most of his form but the return to this trip is a cause for some optimism; less exposed at 1m than shorter. |

5th 7 (2) |
10th Jan 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Never figured in similar event at Lingfield (6f) last week; regressive maiden who needs to derive major benefit from first-time hood. |

4th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Exposed low-grade maiden who has been out of sorts since May 2022; visor and return to sprinting are not enough to tempt. |
20/1 |
|
7th 8 (5) |
16th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
23-race maiden who has appeared only once this season, coming home in her own time at Brighton (7f) in July; too much to prove. |
33/1 |
|
10th 11 (9) |
4th Jul 2023 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has run well a few times over an easy, turning 7f, including twice over C&D, but she's a longstanding maiden who's returning from a lengthy layoff in a competitive race for the grade. |
