15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Has added to his impressive tally with two further 5f wins this season but recent defeats suggest he's gone off the boil somewhat; dropped 2lb since last run but may need some more assistance from the handicapper. |

The winner of 14 of his 48 starts, including two 5f handicaps this season; dropped away when seventh to King Of Light over 6f at Windsor 12 days ago; others look better handicapped. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Running consistently all season and the handicapper continues to give him every chance (5lb lower than when last successful); ran well on his only previous start here too but he's ultimately made a career of getting beaten at short prices. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Unplaced on last two starts but hasn't run badly and he's 4lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (good) in June; capable of having a big say. |
4/1 |

4th 6 (2) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Unbeaten (2-2) under Oisin Murphy until finding traffic in the Windsor race he'd won last summer a fortnight ago; unlikely he'd have won there but he's consistent, fine round here and on a winning mark, so is one to consider. |

17th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

With only one win (last November) in more than two years and not being so good this season, he is some way down the pecking order. |

9th 6 (12) |
19th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Should be competitive off this mark and he didn't run badly at Newcastle last week; on the downside, he's another that likes to be on the sharp end and he's drawn wide to boot. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ended long losing run with soft-ground C&D win in June and gave another good account when fourth at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago; probably won't be far away. |
9/2 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Scored at Lingfield in most recent turf start; record at Salisbury features two wins (2023/2024) and a close fourth in this contest 12 months ago; again has frame possibilities. |
10/1 |

Notched a first success in over two years in 7f handicap at Lingfield last month; needs to back it up off a 5lb higher mark here in a change of headgear. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won two of her first four starts but her progress has stalled since a Lingfield handicap win in April (6f, AW); others look safer now she returns to turf. |

2nd May 2024 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

C&D winner early last month before getting turned over at a short price here six days later (no penalty); remains lightly raced but she was soundly beaten at Catterick on Tuesday. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Holds weak claims on his form this winter for new yard; possibly found 5f too sharp last time but returning to 7f may not be the answer; 6f has looked his optimum trip. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Six-time turf winner; placed a few times since returned to that sphere; only 1-16 on AW but gained the success over C&D (off 3lb higher); in form and has a fighting chance. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Three-time course winner (5f/6f) who often leads, as was the case when a 4l third of five here ten days ago; that was a bit disappointing. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Three-time course winner (5f/6f) whose form has been mixed since returning to turf in May, but this front-runner may enjoy the run of the race and she remains on a favourable mark; goes especially well on good to firm ground; much respected. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Not the force of old and, although he retains some ability, others in this field have more pressing claims. |

4th 3 (5) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple 6f AW winner who is 0-16 on turf, where his better efforts have been on slow ground; AW form has tailed off recently and he looks in need of a revivial if he's to break his turf duck. |
10/1 |
|
12 (7) |
22nd May 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Four wins on AW over 6f, including here; two solid seconds at Kempton this year and his last run there (over 7f) can be forgiven; remains favourably treated. |
