2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
8yo who is without a win since August 2024; however, he was beaten just a nose in a classified here (5.7f, firm) in July and 6f stretched him at Windsor last time; this seven-time course winner could play a leading role back here and back down in trip. |

7th 11 (5) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Pipped by Jackie Brown in a 5.7f classified at Bath last time, with Sisters In The Sky finishing strongly another nose back; that was so nearly his first win for two years (8-81 overall) but coming fourth in 2022 was easily his best result from five visits here. |

2nd 8 (6) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Third in similar C&D race to this (good; first run since rejoining this stable) in June and also ran well when third in recent 5f handicap here (firm) but is not one to rely upon heavily and sometimes races too freely. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
2-45, with the latest win coming at Bath (5.5f, good) last July; tailed off on his return at Salisbury (5f, good to firm; reported to have had a respiratory issue) two weeks ago; has form over this far but others are currently preferred. |
20/1 |

3 (5) |
23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Has a poor strike-rate and is the only runner who lacks recent match practice, having been absent since last October; best watched unless the market speaks favourably. |

5th 9 (8) |
31st Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Had a good record at Bath until tailed off here (5f, heavy) last time in first-time blinkers; however, the ground may have been too much and he's back in cheekpieces today; has shown promise on soft going; could go well. |

2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Without a win since June 2022 but produced three solid efforts here when making the frame in May/June; below that form when seventh of eight at Windsor in July but not out of this if he can recapture his form. |
10/1 |
|
7th 8 (9) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Without a win for over three years but has made the frame in three consecutive Chepstow handicaps (5f-6f) since cheekpieces were refitted in May and has obvious each-way claims here. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
23rd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Getting on for three years since his last success but he's reached a basement mark and there were encouraging signs when second over 6f here last week; bold bid expected back at 5f. |

19th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Infrequent winner but she's reliable at a low level and comes here on the back of six solid turf runs this year; well drawn for a prominent racer and she's likely to be involved once again. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
10th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has very modest 1-37 strike-rate but scores high marks for her consistency; most of her recent form is over 7f but she can cope with today's drop back in trip and probably won't be far away. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 10 (2) |
24th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 6 |
10st 8lb |
Very consistent, running well in the cheekpieces the past twice (deal better off with Gilt Edge than when third to her last month), but has only won once; may be the one to take them along under a jockey taking just her seventh ride. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three course wins over 5f/6f; just 2lb above her last winning mark and softening ground wouldn't be a problem, but she needs to do better than in her last two starts. |
8/1 |
|
9th 1 (5) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well backed and took advantage of a sliding mark when winning an uncompetitive small-field handicap off 3lb lower at Lingfield (turf) in June; always liked it here but this mark is as high as she's ever won off, so there's little margin for error. |
8/1 |
|
6th 2 (7) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner over 5f/6f here; finished 2l behind stablemate So Smart over C&D eight days ago and meets him on the same terms, but she lost ground at the start when the blindfold was removed late so she may get closer. |

Always tended to do best in the second half of the year but has been on the downgrade for a while; didn't build on a fair comeback behind Symbol Of Hope in the spring last time. |

Always tended to do best in the second half of the year but he's adaptable regarding ground and is well treated now; offered enough behind Media Guest on his recent comeback here (lost both front shoes) to suggest he's worth a look. |

34-race maiden who has flattered to deceive on occasions; returning to 1m (attempted once in 2023) not the obvious answer. |

14th May 2025 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Has shown enough to think she could win races, but she's currently 0-33 and she didn't really threaten behind Banana here on her reappearance nine days ago (5f, firm); the extra distance should help, as may a change of headgear, but others appeal more for win purposes. |

24th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Nine-race maiden; went desperately close at Windsor last June (5f, good to firm) but that hasn't proved to be a springboard to better things; this is likely to be the slowest ground she's tackled and she looks best watched back from 225 days off. |

Longstanding, regressive maiden who's been as far as 1m and has finished held in a couple of runs over 5f lately, including from out of the weights at the weekend; the lowest rated contender, so again has something to find. |
