20th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Three wins over 7f/1m on turf/AW last year; endured a wide trip when fifth of ten on her return from 253 days off at Chelmsford (1m, AW) last month, but she remains 6lb above her last winning mark. |

Won three times last year including twice at this track (7f/1m); returns after 253 days off but this reliable mare still looks on a workable mark and she has won when fresh; dangerous with Jim Crowley booked. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 6f success at Southwell and comes here on the back of a good third of 11 in 7f Kempton handicap; this three-time C&D scorer must enter calculations. |
9/2 |

3rd 3 (5) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Nine-time winner (6f-7.4f), who defied this mark at Southwell in January but he's been well held in three runs since; now drops back in grade but he needs to get back near his best. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |

Did too much up front kept to AW on return from break last time, again running below the form of his January win; effective on turf but has never defied a mark as high as current one. |

22nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
All of his seven wins have been over shorter trips but he produced a strong finish when a 2l second over C&D (good) 18 days ago; on unchanged mark and has possibilities if he can find some extra spark. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Seven wins, all on good to firm over 6f and 7f; record over 1m is less compelling and he was never in the hunt over C&D on last month's reappearance; minor money perhaps his best hope. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often came to hand early in the past but is getting on now and has never won first time out; carries a big weight, ideally suited by an easy 7f and today's stiff 1m doesn't appeal as optimal. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Four wins include one over C&D (good) in May 2024; hasn't scored since August of that year but he's now 20lb lower and latest fourth of 13 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) was a solid effort despite hanging; should enhance creditable Brighton form figures of 21424. |
4/1 |
|
4th 13 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-30 on AW but he's won four times on turf (7f); struggled during the winter but he returned to this scene with a respectable effort at Yarmouth (6f, good) last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this step back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |

Front-runner who won over C&D in 2024; beaten around 6l when third here in January but he's been well held in two starts since; others preferred. |

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

Front-runner and C&D winner, but patchy form since his latest success last summer and was well held in a 0-50 classified event here four week ago; others preferred. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

31st Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Back-to-back AW wins in the spring, latterly over C&D; made a good return from eight weeks off when second at Brighton (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago; considered back here. |

2nd 8 (6) |
20th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Form has dipped slightly since two AW wins in March/April and remains on a 2lb higher mark than for the most recent win; however, he posted a better effort at Newbury in June, having been denied a clear run before finishing his race off well, and is worth considering on the back of that. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Comfortably won a division of this last year and a 2lb drop for finishing best of the rest at Wolverhampton last time means she lines up off the same mark; key player. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

1lb higher than when third of five in this race last year and well treated on her best form but recent performances leave her with a bit to prove; best efforts have come at Kempton. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Yet to add to his turf nursery win three years ago but kept on for fourth off basement mark at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) in August and did not enjoy the run of the race in 1m4f AW classified last time; considered each-way. |
10/1 |

26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
33-1 second in a Wolverhampton classified (8.5f, Tapeta) in March; didn't get the breaks when an eye-catching fifth on her penultimate start and she wasn't beaten far when fourth of 12 in a Leicester handicap (1m2f, good to firm) 16 days ago; kept on in the latter and this new trip could unlock a bit more; interesting. |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Sole success came at Nottingham in September 2022; her handicap mark has dropped to an all-time low but she is showing no signs of taking advantage. |
