13th Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Had an excellent run in 1m turf handicaps this year, winning the first three, including over C&D, and losing nothing in defeat against a fellow improver at Newbury (heavy) 22 days ago; edged up 1lb but has much better claims than most. |
4/1 |

2nd 8 (12) |
21st Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Similar type to Atlantic Gamble, being a productive gelding who has a high strike-rate (5-8) in handicaps; close fifth off this mark last time (1m, AW) and remains in form; versatile ground-wise on turf. |

Pretty consistent since cheekpieces have gone on, including winning a Beverley maiden (8.5f) in June; creditable third of six at Sandown (1m) on latest start in August; makes AW debut back from seven weeks off. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
5lb lower than for last April's Yarmouth win (1m2f, good); solid fourth at Windsor two weeks ago and now drops in class; high on the list. |
4/1 |
|
4th 7 (2) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
In good form in the first half of 2025, including a 1m2f win at Yarmouth (good ground) last April; ended the year quietly and he was only in midfield in a 1m2f handicap at Nottingham on his reappearance last month; on a dangerous mark if using that as a stepping stone. |
15/2 |

6th 6 (3) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |

A bit below form on his final five starts last year but a revival can't be ruled out on return having dipped to 3lb below the mark he defied at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) last April. |

20th Jun 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Couple of costly defeats since handicapping, not seeing it out on heavy ground and then from a wide stall at Nottingham (still ran creditably); he has less to prove than most of these, however, and there won't be any excuses this time. |
7/4 |
|
4th 13 (14) |
5th Jun 2024 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Well held in all four runs, most recently when fifth of seven on handicap debut at Goodwood (1m, heavy) last month; still early days for this well-bred gelding but he needs improvement on this switch to much quicker ground. |

15th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up in a Kempton maiden earlier in the year, but hasn't kicked on for the switch to handicaps and, after eight starts, looks more exposed than some; easing mark and return to AW potentially helpful. |
5/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
17th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Seven-race maiden who hasn't really threatened in any of his four handicaps (1m-1m2f); mark continues to fall but he needs to raise his game at this new trip; all of his turf runs have been on good to firm. |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 (6) |
24th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Six-race maiden who hasn't really threatened in any of his three handicaps, for all that he was far from disgraced; will need to improve for this longer trip (pedigree offers some hope in that respect). |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Best form on AW but has won on turf and it was his best effort on grass when third of six at Newbury (2m, good; plugged on) three weeks ago; each-way shout. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Was returning from six months off and drawn wide when beating Arlecchino's Rex by a short head over C&D in April, but found the trip too far at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) 13 days later; still 3lb higher than for the win, but still high on the list back under these conditions. |
10/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Overcame a wide draw to resume winning ways at Wolverhampton (9.4f; 22-1) a fortnight ago; that was her first win for 29 months and, while it's possible she'll strip fitter again, you couldn't be totally confident of a repeat from this 3lb higher mark. |

0-9 and unable to threaten in the main since debut win in June 2023; however, off this reduced mark she dead-heated with Dandy Lichious for second of 14 on recent reappearance at Catterick (7f, good; albeit no match for winner) and she's on the shortlist. |

1m win here last September off a 2lb lower mark; two respectable runs here last month and stepping back up in trip can help; each-way chance. |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Sole win from 17 starts came over C&D in September (good to soft); ran well here on quicker ground next time and left the impression her first start for 167 days was needed when fifth on her most recent start; has claims. |
