21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Drawn wide back up to 6f last time and that run is best overlooked; previously in good form over C&D, winning at a short price late last month in 0-55 company, but this race is stronger and he's 6lb higher. |
12/1 |

9th 9 (10) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual C&D winner who recorded his eighth AW win when coming from last to first at Southwell (5f) last week; 5lb higher under a penalty but he remains feasibly treated and is a big player again back up in trip. |
7/2 |

1st 4 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven AW wins have come elsewhere but he has often run well over C&D and did so again when only narrowly failing to end a losing run here on Saturday; had no problem with returning to 5f for the first time in over a year and a likely candidate. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Raced exclusively in sprints for the last year or so and has been this far only twice; doesn't arrive in much form and others have more pressing claims. |
8/1 |
|
6th 10 (12) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time winner (around 6f) in 2025 but he's yet to hit top form in a trio of runs this season, seventh of 13 at Nottingham (5f) 18 days ago. |
14/1 |
|
7th 5 (14) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All of his four turf wins have been on good or slower including heavy; his last win was at Bath (5.6f) last September but he's finished down the field there in his last three runs; now drops back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark; regular hood is removed. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Admirable 8yo who recorded his 11th win when surging clear on his reappearance at Catterick (6f, good to firm) last month; has a 10lb rise to deal with but he still looks on a workable mark and his last four wins have come under Tom Kiely-Marshall; key player. |
9/4 |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Multiple sprint winner who runs here for the first time; 3lb higher than when last winning at Leicester (6f, good to soft) last September; not badly treated on that form but has yet to produce one of his better efforts following a break. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
21st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Below best at Leicester recently; had won two of his three 6f starts previously but he hasn't run on the AW for over a year and has been better on Polytrack than Tapeta in the past. |

Five-time C&D winner, including twice around this time last year, who's on the downgrade now; is handicapped accordingly but has had a good few chances in similar company of late. |

19th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Should be winning races off his reduced mark and the return to 6f looks a good move judged on recent efforts; four of his 12 wins have come over C&D; high on the list. |

C&D win 15 months ago, but she's struggled to find her form this year and although her mark has bottomed out, she looks opposable tried in blinkers for the first time. |
14/1 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
15th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Has plummeted down the handicap and has finished out of the frame in her last nine starts; this is however her best chance for a while and cannot be ruled out. |

8th 12 (11) |
5th May 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 213y Class 6 |

Has dropped 7lb below her last winning mark and has the assistance of Patrick Millman, but has finished out of the frame in her last eight starts; has won on good to soft, unraced on anything softer. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Multiple winner down the years; solid effort on turf three weeks ago and won't mind getting back on AW; looks the likeliest of Phil Mcentee's three runners. |
12/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest of his 11 wins came at Lingfield (6f, AW) in January and he went close at Wolverhampton next time; fair effort over 6f at Lingfield 36 days ago but this slight drop back in trip probably isn't ideal. |
7/1 |

5th 4 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
11 wins, the latest off basement mark over C&D in January; largely consistent since and may benefit from this drop back in trip, having raced too freely when fourth over 7f here on latest outing; back from two-month break. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Landed this race off 7lb higher last year; couldn't get involved over the bare 5f here 18 days ago but his two previous runs over this slightly longer trip were encouraging; likely there or thereabouts. |
7/1 |

9th 10 (3) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |

5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Last three turf wins came on this track, on extremes of going; went quiet on the AW earlier in the year but he came from a long way back to take a late third over C&D in May and has better claims than most. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time AW winner who went close at Lingfield (5f) in March and ran well there over 6f in April, finishing third of five (beaten a length); never got involved there 28 days ago but he could go well returned to 6f. |
9/1 |

6th 1 (3) |

C&D winner who came close to ending a losing AW run when a fast-closing runner-up here (5f) in March (5f); returns to this C&D for the first time since and ought to go well if the race falls his way. |

9st 7lb |
Five wins in 2025, including C&D, but rather going through the motions this time around; showed a bit more spark with his front-running sixth at Kempton in May; on a manageable mark and the type to come good again soon. |

Four wins in a purple patch in the second half of 2025; now 5lb lower than for his last success but he's struggled at big prices in five runs this year and needs to turn things around; one of two runners for the yard. |

9st 4lb |
Back on song with narrow win at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month but he failed to back that up at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) two weeks ago; this triple C&D winner now goes back up in trip but he's a mercurial type who needs to bounce back again. |
12/1 |

9th 7 (8) |
17th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Back on song with narrow win in 15-runner Lingfield handicap (7f, good to firm) last week, his sixth career success; not one to rely upon heavily but remains well handicapped on form as recent as the winter and can cope with today's drop back in trip. |
