12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Reliable staying handicapper who hit new heights when winning in grand style at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f) last time; more is required in his first Group race but he needs some respect following such a career best. |

Solid 2024 campaign included fourth of 18 in this race (good to firm; fine on soft) off same mark as today; made a satisfactory reappearance this April and, likely to build on that, looks a strong each-way candidate. |

Quite useful on the Flat and won a Listed hurdle two seasons ago for Nicky Henderson; hasn't been herself this season but was highly tried the last time and interesting to see what Dan Skelton can do with her. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Beat 13 rivals to win at Newbury (1m2f, good) ten days ago on his second start back from some time off; back up 4lb but he's just 1lb higher than when second in this last year and he's a solid contender. |
9/2 |
|
1st 2 (10) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ran creditably over 1m2f on good ground on first three starts last season and back-to-form fourth of 13 at Kempton (AW) three weeks ago; thereabouts if the returning cheekpieces (worn on final start in 2024, below form) don't have an adverse effect. |
12/1 |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Ran creditably on first three starts last season, before two lesser displays in the summer; versatile ground-wise on turf and although he's raced only twice on AW, in first half of 2024, the first of those runs was creditable; the widest draw does not help today, however. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Made it 2-3 for Joe Tizzard when scoring back from another break at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good; 100-30) two weeks ago; up 5lb but that was a comfortable win from off the pace and this step back up in trip should be fine (first hurdle win was over 2m4f); big player. |

1st 3 |
13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
First run for Joe Tizzard when justifying market confidence at Wincanton (2m4f, good) in March last year and unlikely he gave his true running when well beaten after a 7lb rise at Taunton in November; could be given another chance, though lengthy breaks have become a feature in his profile. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Can set the pace; twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f/16.5f) during the winter and a good third of 14 in competitive event at Lingfield (2m, also AW; Tarbat Ness sixth) on Good Friday; turf no problem and he should give a good account. |
8/1 |

3rd 11 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Often a front-runner; 1lb lower than when twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f/16.5f) during the winter and didn't enjoy much luck when behind a couple of these there last month, but the outside stall won't make things easy. |
9/1 |

6th 4 (2) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who was well beaten over hurdles last time but had previously twice finished runner-up here (1m6f/16.5f); may be happier back in this sphere, but likely to face competition for the lead. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Bumper and four-time Flat (1m2f/1m4f) winner who is ideally suited by fast ground; respectable fourth on AW when last seen in February and he's on a workable mark back over hurdles; needs close look for in-form yard. |
7/1 |

4th 2 (4) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Out of the frame in all four starts since returned to the AW, but his fifth of ten over 1m2f here in December suggested that all may not be lost; now 6lb lower than for that effort and 8lb lower than when last successful; interesting. |
11/1 |
|
7th 2 (1) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Now 6lb lower than for his two turf wins last May, but he's finished down the field in last six starts and last three have been at this track (1m2f/1m4f); others preferred. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His mark continues to tumble and he's one to watch in the betting in reapplied cheekpieces with the slow ground in his favour; however, this 12yo has very much struggled on his four starts since last June. |

8th 9 (8) |
18th Feb 2026 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 7f 196y Class 2 |

Sixth in 2022 Chester Cup (sole visit); well handicapped on best 2024 form; now an 11yo, well beaten on final outing last season and his only start this term (June); the latter was on good ground, whereas it's softer (preferably soft or heavy) which has suited him best for a long time now. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Came good at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in March and probably bettered that performance when close second at Newton Abbot (2m5f, heavy) in April; reportedly not suited by the sharp track at Cartmel when very disappointing favourite last month but might bounce back in new headgear here and is evidently versatile ground-wise. |
6/1 |

8th 11 |
26th May 2025 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |

Arrives on the up for his current yard, scoring at Fontwell (2m5f) in March before an excellent second of nine in 2m5f handicap at Newton Abbot the following month; he was a fair 1m6f Flat winner so merits serious consideration despite a 3lb weights rise. |

10st 0lb |
Clearcut winner at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in July and placed in valuable Lanark Silver Bell at Hamilton (1m4f, heavy) since but this season's record is very mixed and he was never dangerous in first-time cheekpieces (retained) last month; not an easy one to predict. |
8/1 |

9th 6 (15) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Has an inconsistent profile but with easily his two best turf efforts having been delivered in the mud, including when third at Hamilton (1m4f) 15 days ago; stayed on late that day but underperformed in all four appearances at about 1m6f; connections reach for headgear. |

23rd Aug 2024 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |

In-and-out profile and well beaten at Ascot last time, but the good ground may not have suited (sole turf win was on soft going); in good form on AW earlier this summer and he's not ruled out. |

Eight-race maiden who ran creditably in a hood over 1m6f on three outings this summer, on final occasion staying on from well off the pace when fourth on soft at Goodwood; cheekpieces instead when running poorly at Haydock (1m6f, heavy) 16 days ago, hanging left, but he now reverts to a hood. |

Six-race maiden who has shaped with some promise in 1m6f handicaps at Sandown (good) the last twice; looks a tad quirky but has possibilities if getting his act fully together. |
