31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
No win on turf since successful over C&D (good to firm) in July 2024; losing run up to 12, but 4lb below his last winning mark and has won on soft ground; shortlisted. |

Placed here (1m2f, good) in June, after a break, and not discredited when second of four over C&D (good) last month; remains well handicapped on some of his winter AW form and can make his presence felt again. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
On a handy mark again now and his first three runs of this campaign confirmed he retained plenty of enthusiasm; off the boil more recently but he drops in class with Henry Callan booked; one to be interested in. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
10st 8lb |
Won twice over C&D (good/soft) last summer; has reached the frame on four of his five 2026 starts but beaten 6l when fourth at York latest and the return to Sandown needs to help him recapture his peak form. |
9/1 |

4th 6 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |

Has done well with cheekpieces, winning twice at 1m2f at Sandown (good/soft) last summer; started 2026 with three creditable in-frame efforts (including good to firm) but needs to shrug off a lesser effort over C&D four weeks ago. |

3lb lower than winning at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in November and was running well when last seen on turf last summer, including a win here (11.5f, good to firm); still capable over this shorter trip and shortlisted. |

9st 10lb |
Scored over C&D (good to firm) in September and was also on target at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in April; recent efforts have been respectable and he holds each-way claims at least. |
13/2 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf and remains on a career-high mark, so seems up against it; however, consistent record (12233) at Windsor includes a good effort (neck second) in this contest last year; solid contender back here. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All five of his wins have come at Newcastle; it has been a long time since the last of them but a second wind op seemed to do the trick earlier in the year, finishing second at Chelmsford and over C&D; absent since March but he has to be taken seriously off his lowly mark. |

2nd 7 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Four wins, two seconds and two thirds to his name from ten runs over C&D and bounced back to form 18 days ago (7f, Polytrack) on his first start since undergoing a second round of wind surgery; on a very attractive mark if building on that. |

10st 7lb |
Flat and hurdle winner who showed signs of a revival when runner-up at Ffos Las (1m4f, soft) in August but she was well held here next time; bit to prove again after that and she's untried beyond 1m4f on the Flat. |
6/1 |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Returned from break with two below-par runs in July but last month's Ffos Las second (1m4f, soft) was much better, and she was a heavy-ground C&D winner off today's mark last autumn; high on the list. |
4/1 |

29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |

Has possibly found good ground on the quick side of late but she was a wide-margin winner on heavy (1m2f) last October and won over hurdles (good to soft) the following month so any rain would suit; not ruled out. |

1st Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
The form of his two wins here (1m2f/1m) this summer has substance; raced freely and folded over 1m2f last time when bidding for Brighton hat-trick, suggesting he'll benefit from this drop back in trip; remains of interest at this level. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Closely matched with A Rose Adaay on their recent clash in a classified race; probably needs more back in a handicap and he's hard to win with (2-33). |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
