9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Six-time winner, including in first-time blinkers at Glorious Goodwood; close third at Haydock (7f) with reappearance under his belt, paving the way nicely for a crack at this prize; has made the frame in both C&D attempts; possibilities in new headgear (visor). |

25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Strong handicap form over 7f last summer, winning at Goodwood and Chepstow as well as finishing second in a 20-runner event at Ascot (all when wearing blinkers); still feasibly weighted on that form and he went without headgear when down the field in the Lincoln; the blinkers return today and he's a leading contender. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Thrived in 7f handicaps last season when blinkers went on; however, he failed to shine when tackling 1m last term and reappears minus any headgear (tried cheekpieces when last seen; down the field); others preferred. |

5th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won on handicap debut at Kempton (7f) in May; ran with credit when reaching the frame on her next five starts (including here on good to firm) and something presumably can't have been right when well held at Newmarket four weeks ago; solid contender if that latest run is ignored. |

9th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won on handicap debut at Kempton in April (7f) and has continued to run well in defeat without looking ahead of her mark; seems fine at 7f or a mile; involved once more. |
3/1 |

3rd 4 (3) |
11th Jul 2024 Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Made a successful return/handicap debut at Kempton (7f, AW) in April and has finished runner-up in three of her four outings since, the latest a narrow defeat at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago; up another 2lb, but in good order and she ran with credit on soft ground as a 2yo. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Hit the ground running last year, winning twice at Nottingham in April, over 8.5f (good) and 1m2f (good to firm); also scored at Epsom (good to soft) in September and once again made a winning return when picking up an AW handicap here (1m2f) 19 days ago; up 5lb and this is tougher but he's progressive and can't be ignored. |
7/2 |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

A three-time winner (at up to 1m2f) in 2025 but he signed off with a below-par fifth in 1m2f Nottingham handicap in October; has won off a break though. |
9/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
4yo who's come into his own this season with three wins, the first two on a sound surface at this track (1m/1m2f) in April and the latest when coming from the rear at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) three weeks ago; needed some riding last time and is 5lb higher today but he was strong where it mattered and finished well on top. |

Off the mark in 1m novice on Lingfield AW in December but he's found it harder in handicaps this year and his recent runs back at Lingfield leave him with work to do on his Tapeta debut. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive gelding who's having his first run in a sprint since this time last year and is drawn widest; well held back from a break on turf here a fortnight ago (7f) but will be happier back on Polytrack should they go hard in front. |
12/1 |

Scored over C&D just before Christmas and went close to following up back here 12 days ago; a further 2lb nudge shouldn't prevent another bold bid in his current mood. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Bolted up in a 6f fillies' h'cap at Windsor 12 months ago on good-to-firm for George Boughey; last of 14 on yard debut at Naas early this month after a 303-day absence so entitled to come on for it but this trip probably stretches her. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 3lb |
Bolted up in fillies' h'cap at Windsor 12 months ago on good-to-firm; two lesser efforts on easier ground since; has to defy a 303-day absence on stable debut but is still lightly-raced and would appreciate quick ground. |
11/1 |

7th 8 (3) |
5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Has claims on her clearcut win off 6lb lower at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in August but she then ran poorly over the same C&D three weeks later; easier ground was blamed but she does have form on soft. |

Running well in defeat of late, most recently bumping into a heavily backed improver at Wolverhampton (8.6f) two weeks ago; stable going well and she's one to consider. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Back to the mark off which she ran away from eight rivals at Southwell in January (7f); mixed record since but has a chance if she's on one of her good days. |

13th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

3-21, those wins coming over 5f, 6f, and 7f; placed on return from a three-and-a-half month absence at Newmarket (1m, good to soft; 6-1) on penultimate start but less productive next time (7f); easing mark coupled with Alec Voikhansky's 3lb claim helpful. |

A maiden after ten starts but did well to finish second to a progressive rival at Wolverhampton (1m6f; first-time blinkers) three weeks ago, given he raced wide and had a lot of use made of him in the early stages; remains unexposed over this trip and looks ready to strike soon. |

3yo who is 0-9; encouraging efforts over 1m4f here in a visor the last twice, finishing third most recently (ran in snatches); now wears first-time blinkers instead and he could be suited by the extra yardage; chance. |

6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Has improved steadily with each run and the front two came clear when a workmanlike winner at Newmarket (1m, good; 13-8); the runner-up was third of nine on his next start; 7lb rise demands that he improves some more but that's very feasible. |

Better with each run last backend before being gelded; had a subsequent dual winner behind when going close off a 3lb lower mark on his comeback over this trip last month and holds leading claims for a yard back in its usual form. |
