24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Productive spell from August 2024 to April 2025 over hurdles and on the Flat; has had some struggles in a light campaign this season but he showed signs of a revival at Stratford (2m6f, good) last month and has possibilities if he can build on that. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Productive spell from August 2024 to April 2025 over hurdles and on the Flat; Fontwell win over nearly 2m6f started that sequence but this season's three runs over hurdles were heavy defeats. |

Productive campaign last season over hurdles and on the Flat; however, tailed off towards the end of last year on last two hurdle starts and he wasn't at his best back on the Flat early this month. |

31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
10yo whose easily most successful season was 2025, with four wins; the latest was at this track (2m) in December and he's held his form, including over C&D, so has each-way claims once again. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner whose most recent success came at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) off this mark in December; beaten 2l when fourth of seven there nine days ago, despite failing to settle, and there's no reason to suggest he won't go well. |
9/2 |

4th 4 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Consistent veteran who made the frame on his last six appearances and is now back on same mark as for C&D win in December; likely to be on the premises. |

6th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Lightly raced filly; hasn't shown too much since joining Kevin Frost, but did make some late headway when seventh of ten on C&D handicap debut (beaten 4.75l; 33-1) three weeks ago; 2lb lower here; isn't a forlorn hope in a weak race. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |

Dual 1m4f winner on Tapeta elsewhere; placed three times from six starts over this sort of trip on Tapeta and could make the frame from just 2lb above his last winning mark. |
12/1 |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No AW win since January 2023 (Newcastle, 12.5f); managed to score at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last July but fortunes dipped markedly towards the end of the turf season; more than enough to prove after layoff. |
16/1 |

1st Oct 2025 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won here (12.4f, good) in July and respectable efforts in next two runs but his form nosedived at Hamilton last month; has something to prove again after that and he needs to bounce back; stablemate of Elemental Eye. |

9st 9lb |
Won two in a row on turf (11.6f/1m2f) in September 2023 but he's been lightly raced since and has finished down the field in his three runs this winter; AW record now stands at 1-24 and others are preferred. |

9st 4lb |
2m win at Wolverhampton off 2lb higher when trained by Stuart Edmunds; well beaten at big prices in two runs for new yard after an absence; hood left off today (often pulled for former yard); risk attached. |

7th 3 (6) |
6th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Sole success from 15 starts came over 2m here (same mark) for Stuart Edmunds in January 2023; failed to make her presence felt (last of eight; first-time hood) when an unconsidered outsider on stable debut here over 1m4f last month; could strip fitter, but needs more. |

0-12; best run for a while when keeping on for third in a 1m2f classified race here and going further this afternoon should be a plus. |
