7th Apr 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made a successful reappearance at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) a year ago when trained by Richard Spencer, but below form in his last three starts and now makes his debut for a new yard in a first-time tongue-tie; market useful. |

Returned from six months off to win a C&D handicap last April off 5lb lower; ran well on his next three AW starts but his form has dipped the last twice; new visor replaces blinkers; dangerous if left alone up front. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
His five wins include one over C&D last May; below his best on his first two starts this year but took a step back in the right direction when a 2l fifth of 12 at Ripon (1m2f, good) 19 days ago; contender. |
9/2 |

8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Five-time winner, three times at around 1m2f (good/good to firm) last summer; well handicapped on his best form last season but he's been quiet in two runs this spring and needs to rediscover his spark. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up twice in a row on AW in the winter before two heavy defeats; didn't run badly back on turf at Haydock (1m, good) last month after a break but the AW seems to be his preferred sphere (just 1-15 on grass). |
33/1 |

7th 7 (4) |
21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time AW winner but he was disappointing at Southwell (1m) in his final two runs during the winter; has won on turf but that was a long time ago and he doesn't have a great record when fresh; opposable on return. |
16/1 |

11th 4 (6) |
22nd Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Disappointing here three weeks ago but he'd been in good form beforehand, second at Wolverhampton and Lingfield around the turn of the year; needs a full revival to win though. |

8th Apr 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won a maiden here (7f) last October but that was a good opportunity and he's not threatened back in two handicaps since; may have needed the run at Newcastle on his return last month but he needs to find more progress at this new trip; hood reapplied. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Another prominent racer; now a seven-time winner on the AW after this year's wins over C&D and at Wolverhampton (8.6f); those were Class 4s but he's got a canny habit of never winning by far so remains on a fair mark. |
7/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Having slipped down the weights he returned to winning ways with a comfortable success at Lingfield (1m) four weeks ago; up 4lb but not handicapped out of things. |
5/2 |
|
1st 5 (7) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has dropped to a dangerous mark, 8lb lower than when last successful, but losing run up to 11 and he was behind three of these at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) 13 days ago. |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Five-time 7f winner here (well suited by a good test over that trip) who's currently 0-17 over C&D; patchy since a win here off 1lb lower in February and others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
18th 1 (22) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Still on a realistic mark and several good AW runs to his name already this year; 0-13 on turf and 0-31 at 1m+ so he will need to break new ground to come out on top today; Simon Walker booked but others might be seeing it out more strongly. |
10/1 |

5th 11 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Dual course winner (1m/7f) this year, following a layoff; managed only sixth when favourite here (1m) 11 days ago but has a big role to play from the inside stall if quickly back in the groove. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
In good form last June, winning off this mark over C&D (good) before an excellent second at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm); some fair efforts this season and on a good mark now; not out of it. |
4/1 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Beaten on his last 14 starts and he's been expensive to follow in that time, but he was denied a clear run at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month and again ran well when fifth of 19 at York (7f, good) last time; could be thereabouts. |
11/2 |
|
5th 5 (13) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
His losing sequence is up to 13 but he's 4lb lower than when runner-up at Royal Ascot last June and was denied a clear run when third at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last Saturday; bang there if getting the breaks. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form this spring, winning at Thirsk (1m, good) and over C&D (good to firm) last month; front pair were 6l clear that day and if he can maintain that level of form he'd still look well treated despite a 5lb rise. |
3/1 |

1st 1 (1) |
22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Has registered most wins on AW but ran creditably last Saturday when bidding for a Thirsk (1m) double; this 8yo remains in form and is still well treated on historical data. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Course regular; his latest third (8.6f) was a remote one behind an easy winner but it was still a creditable effort; no sign of age denting his enthusiasm and he should make another bold bid. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Three wins here in the winter to take his course tally to 11 but he's rather lost the plot since and doesn't often go beyond 7f these days; needs a revival. |
