20th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won four in a row on Tapeta for Barry Brennan in early part of this year (two at this track); has run with credit on turf since for Tom Dascombe in June/July and his current trainer; returns to AW following a break and has been gelded; any market move should be noted. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Struck form with two 2m3f wins at Fontwell (good to soft/soft) this winter, and may not have been suited by heavy ground when disappointing on latest outing (2m4f); could have a say if suited by this new trip. |

29th Jan 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 179y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Dual Flat winner who has come good over hurdles with wins at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft/soft) on last two starts; up another 6lb but that was a smooth success last time and he's open to more progress; highly respected in hat-trick bid. |

19th Feb 2026 2m 0f 57y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
5-14 on AW; stopped quickly in last year's Northumberland Plate and it was a similar story in added cheekpieces at Wolverhampton (1m6f) the following month; afforded time off thereafter, returning with a sound effort at Southwell (2m; beaten a neck) in December; key player from a 1lb higher mark. |

31st Jul 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Completed an AW hat-trick at around 2m during the winter, but has disappointed in his last three starts including when beaten miles in the Northumberland Plate (2m, Tapeta); will need the first-time cheekpieces to make a big difference. |
25/1 |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Disappointing on last two outings, denting his good records both on AW surfaces and at 2m; having been dropped just 1lb, he needs to return from three months off with a career best; good 5lb claimer is enlisted. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
1m4f AW handicap win for the Gosdens and doubled his tally in soft-ground handicap at Yarmouth (1m2f) for William Knight, both in 2024; couldn't recapture that form last year and was sold for 8,000gns in October; starts out for new yard from career-low mark so worth a check of the betting. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Two wins in 2024, over 1m4f (AW) and 1m2f (soft), but it's been a slog this year and he's gone into reverse since a better effort in third of 11 at Windsor (1m2f, soft) in July; the recent rain is in his favour now back on turf, though, and he's not ruled out. |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Dual winner last year (C&D first occasion) but there's been an echo of that form only once this season, when third at Windsor on penultimate start; sinking in the weights but C&D tenth on latest dampens enthusiasm. |

13th Mar 2024 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't show a great deal on debut but different proposition at Southwell (1m3f, sole run on Tapeta) 20 days later, winning a seven-runner novice; well below that level back at Kempton latest but perhaps this return to Tapeta will turn things around again; also tries headgear on this handicap debut. |
