6th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Progressive on AW, winning twice (9.5f/1m2f); has failed to transfer that form back to turf (1m2f) in last two outings but gives the impression this return to 1m is worth exploring; difficult to write off. |
10/1 |
|
8th 6 (9) |
15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Major improver in 1m2f AW handicaps, quickening up smartly at Lingfield in March (hood discarded, now refitted; Andaleep back in third); said to have been unsuited by Chester's tight turns when way back there in May; needs to show he's as good on turf as AW but remains of interest. |
9/2 |
|
11th 1 (6) |
9th May 2024 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Big improver in AW handicaps this year, running out a decisive winner of a 14-runner race over 1m2f at Lingfield on Good Friday; a 5lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him if proving as effective on turf (9l second in a maiden on previous attempt). |

Five-time course winner, but he's never scored beyond 1m2f and his last success was in November 2023; well handicapped on his old form but he's been well held in last four starts and latest was over 1m6f here last month; opposable. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
9yo who was down the field at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last time but was running consistently well prior to that; this C&D winner has an each-way chance if bouncing back. |
25/1 |
|
9th 1 (10) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Hearty strike-rate on turf, adding another in a Racing League race at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July; less of a win machine on AW but both wins have come on this track, over C&D and 1m4f in early 2024, and he was involved in a tight finish back on AW at Wolverhampton two starts ago; not far away. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Usually apprentice ridden but Jude Fernandes rides him for the first time; 6lb lower than when winning at Sandown (1m6f, good to firm) last June; he has not beaten many in his four starts this season, coming last in a four-runner race last time, but can't be dismissed and the hood he often wore last term (and first run this year) is reinstated. |
10/1 |

4th 2 (4) |
26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |

7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 10-33 on AW features six wins at Wolverhampton, including in this race (off just 1lb lower) last year; close fourth at Lingfield for an encouraging start to his 2026 campaign; fighting chance. |
7/2 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Best known as a Wolverhampton specialist (six wins), but is 2-5 over C&D and the middle leg of his hat-trick early last year included this race off 3lb lower; interesting. |
7/1 |
|
10th 4 (7) |
28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |

Has a much better stirke-rate on AW than on turf; form dipped back in this sphere when last seen; on a difficult mark and isn't the percentage call. |

Seven Flat wins include over C&D, and more recently on the AW in December; trip inadequate on seasonal return here in April and has since been pulled up over hurdles; champion jockey booked but veteran appears vulnerable. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Seven-time Flat winner won a Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March 2023 (2m, good to yielding) but generally moderate form over hurdles since then; the same can be said of his recent outing on the level at Leopardstown last month. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Dual Newcastle winner who's generally struggled since returning from more than a year off; his only below-par effort on Tapeta came when not seeing out 1m6f, however, and the handicapper's given him every chance. |
10/1 |
|
13th 10 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Often a front-runner; 13lb below last winning mark, but patchy form in five starts since returning from 14 months off in October; others make greater appeal. |
33/1 |

8th 6 (7) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |

Handy sort who was off for 14 months before returning for this yard in October; third of 11 when stepped up in trip at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) 11 days ago, but this will test his stamina further. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Seen mostly at up to 1m4f, over which he delivered a telling late challenge on the other Newmarket track in May; while that looked encouraging for longer trips, his one attempt at 1m6f (on soft last July) and two at 2m (last two Northumberland Plates) saw him well beaten; that's not conclusive proof that he won't stay 1m6f but it leaves his stamina unproven. |
33/1 |
|
12th 11 (13) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Three wins at this track but he came 13th in this race last year; that was his only appearance over this long a trip and he was also below form when he had a crack at 1m6f, so he's unproven beyond 1m4f, over which he's contested his last nine starts; stamina is the big doubt. |
16/1 |
|
4th 7 (12) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Track regular who finished third in this race (good to soft) in 2024 and stayed on from the rear to be fourth in last year's edition; also won last season's Great Metropolitan over C&D (good) and got back in the winning groove when taking Newmarket handicap three weeks ago; latter success puts him on a career-high mark but he's unlikely to be far away. |

Now 2lb lower than when keeping on well for close second behind course specialist in quite valuable Brighton Mile this summer, but recent Tapeta form has been underwhelming and he remains without a win since 2023. |

Five-time Flat winner in Britain; promoted winner of C&D handicap in which Friar Hogan was carried out; he had also suffered interference caused by the first-past-the-post; went up 6lb and failed to distinguish himself at Punchestown. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 12y |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Fine on Tapeta but has done most winning round Chelmsford, always over 1m2f; generally consistent in recent times, without looking quite as good, and has to prove his stamina going beyond 1m4f for the first time; the usual headgear comes off. |
10/1 |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |

Much more exposed than some of these and usually runs over 1m2f but gave pretty good account when fourth in valuable Chelmsford handicap (1m2f) a fortnight and is 1lb lower here; could have a say. |

7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Formerly a front-runner but more often held up these days; finished a 4l seventh at Wolverhampton in last two starts but he's 5-9 at Chelmsford and was runner-up over C&D in June; has possibilities back at this track and he needs a close look with Hollie Doyle booked. |

Lightly raced since making a winning debut here (7f) in October 2022; well beaten on his debut for his third different yard at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack; first-time tongue-tie) in March and has been absent for another three months since; look elsewhere. |
