4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
10-32 on the AW and as tough as old boots, going down by less than a length in his last three outings including when beaten a short head over C&D in March; likely to be bang there once again. |

2nd 6 (7) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |

C&D record is currently three wins and two seconds from five starts; most of his career wins have come in the winter but he continues in good form and has strong claims. |

All of his ten wins have been on AW and he had a near-miss over 1m3f at Kempton last Wednesday; on same mark here and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |

Five-time Flat winner who landed a novice hurdle last March; it's been slim pickings in the main since and he was soundly beaten on his recent stable debut at Southwell; however, he was sent off the 4-1 joint-favourite and it will be interesting to see if his backers return. |

Last won over C&D last May; first-time blinkers (retained) replaced visor for his last two starts and he responded with a creditable third in a classified at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft) on first occasion; tailed off on latest, however, which was a poor show notwithstanding the 1m2f. |

11th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Won four times at Brighton in 2022; 0-13 last year and only fourth on her return to action on Saturday; conditions suit and she's capable at this level but she'll need to up her game if she's to gain her first AW win at the 22nd attempt. |

Has done all his winning on turf but lost out only by a head in 1m2f Polytrack handicap at Chelmsford in November and his fourth over that C&D a few days later was also a decent effort; today's trip-and-surface combination will also suit; likely contender. |
