Multiple AW winner; out of sorts this winter, however, and the addition of blinkers needs to turn things around. |

15th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won three times over 6f in early 2024 and was placed in a valuable race on sole attempt at 7f but is yet to strike form since returning from a break in December and needs a good boost from the first-time cheekpieces. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon off a 7lb higher mark; didn't run badly at Nottingham (5f, good) on penultimate start and a wide draw offers an excuse at Chester since. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon off a 5lb higher mark; didn't run badly at Nottingham 12 days ago (5f, good) but he has a double-figure stall to contend with and could prove vulnerable. |
16/1 |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and has done all his winning over 6f/7f; inconsistent since last success; 0-12 over 5f and doesn't look the answer. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Regressive 8yo who is yet to add to his Listed AW success in February 2021; did nothing wrong when second under Sam Feilden at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) last month but the forecast rain is unlikely to aid his cause here; younger rivals are preferred. |

20th May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 4 |

Well treated on AW form and soft ground was a possible excuse returned to turf last time; has the ability to win this race but he's on a very long losing run. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Promising second on reappearance at Newcastle and better than the bare results suggest since, meeting significant trouble in running in a big field at York last time; could play a major role if getting the breaks. |
11/1 |
|
15th 19 (11) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Merely fifth on his last two starts, following a very promising second on his reappearance at Newcastle (6f, AW); however, he won this last year (good to firm) and is handicapped to be in the mix if he's back on song. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 (2) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Not much room for manoeuvre off this mark but has resumed in good form, latterly when inclined to pull hard at Newmarket (6f) in a race not run to suit; usually ridden patiently these days but has made all more than once in the past; a lot may hinge on how things unfold early. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has won only once since making his British debut in October 2023; has threatened plenty of times but has been very poor in last two races. |
14/1 |
|
12th 2 (11) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
He's won just once since making his British debut in October 2023; however, that came this January (7f, AW) and a slow start proved costly when back at 6f at Southwell last Thursday; effective on turf and might not be far away now back up in trip. |
12/1 |
|
8th 9 (5) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
1m win in January and back to his recent best when a close third at Lingfield last week; runs off the same mark today but he would be more appealing over an extra furlong. |

pulled hard, in rear but in touch with leaders, short of room against rail after 2f, outpaced 2f out, weakened from over 1f out |
14/1 |

7th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Four-time sprint winner, including here; the handicapper has given him a chance on this first run since July 2022 and he returns with his trainer among the winners, but it's hefty absence to defy. |
