10th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Has six wins on the Flat; sole success in this sphere came at this track (2m5f, good) in August 2024; still 6lb above his winning mark but was still in contention when brought down at the last flight over C&D (good) in April; holds place claims. |

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. |

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. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
A four-time scorer (including here in 2025); in good nick without winning this season, finding drop to 1m4f against him when a staying-on sixth of 12 at Newcastle last time; this veteran needs considering back up in trip. |
4/1 |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Four wins last season included two here at 2m; never figured in this race last term but he's been in the frame all nine starts this year and was unlucky when fifth at this track in December on his last go at 1m4f; each-way prospects. |
14/1 |

4th 8 (8) |
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. |

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. |

21st Feb 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
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. |

9th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Regressive ten-race maiden who has had four different trainers and he's been well held in his three runs (1m2f-1m6f) this year; regular tongue-tie is now removed and cheekpieces return. |
