24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D win last April came off a 5lb higher mark; good second at Wolverhampton three weeks ago but unable to back it up at Southwell one week later (both 7f); chance if back to his best. |
10/1 |

8th 10 (7) |
30th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time AW winner, the latest at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in April; now 2lb lower and no problem with the return to 7f, but he needs to fare better than in his last three starts. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Popped up over C&D (good) when beating Reginald Charles in June but after a subsequent run of placings he appears to have gone off the boil; did show a bit more on AW three weeks ago, however, and he's dipped below that winning mark; might go well at attractive odds. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Had a brief consistent spell that was initiated by Redcar success but his form has dipped sharply in last two starts; yet to win beyond 7f. |
12/1 |

11th 7 (15) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Three-time winner whose last success came over this C&D (good; possibly flattered by racing in a small breakaway group) in June; only 2lb higher but he stopped abruptly over a mile last time; may do better back at 7f. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Listed winner (6f) on AW; showed himself to be smart on turf too with a 7f handicap win at Newmarket last month; wouldn't judge him harshly on his Bunbury Cup defeat five weeks ago, racing away from the main action and still in front 1f out; 4lb lower today and he looks a big player for last year's winning connections. |
8/1 |

10th 1 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 3lb |
Respectable fifth in this year's Victoria Cup; prevailed last Saturday to take C&D record to 2-2 and overall strike-rate to 7-23; incurs 6lb penalty but Conor Whiteley takes off a useful 5lb; major player. |

26th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has an excellent record at Ayr and it was a shame that he was drawn on the other side to the narrow winner when leading home his group in the Bronze Cup (6f, soft) last week; back up 3lb which won't be beyond him if he copes with this track at the first attempt. |
7/1 |

5th 5 (3) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Inconsistent and winless this year and well beaten at York (6f, good to firm) recently; however, that was more competitive than this and two starts ago he ran well when third of 17 at Ayr (6f, good); may have a chance. |
6/1 |
|
19th 14 (18) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won a good C&D handicap last year and also successful at Ayr last September; 0-7 in 2026 but he retains all his ability and ran well for third (of 17) at Ayr 19 days ago; high draw a potential stumbling block. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner; struggling for form this year but that is reflected in his much-reduced handicap mark; dropping into 0-80 company will help but there are risks attached. |
20/1 |
|
12th 1 (4) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Hasn't got going this year but he's dropped to a good mark on last year's high points and a tongue-tie is turned to; a revival is not out of the question; effective on soft but hasn't shone on heavy. |
20/1 |
|
10th 9 (7) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Yet to fire this season but landed his third win here when successful in this race last year (good to firm) off 4lb higher; he has also been placed twice at this track and can never be written off around here. |

20th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Can't blame the 7f trip for last month's below-par run at Southwell but he was second over 6f in higher-grade company there twice in August and has possibilities here; swaps blinkers for refitted cheekpieces; tongue-tie left off. |
10/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has done his winning over 6f; placed over same trip at Southwell in two of his last three runs; numerous defeats over 7f are a reason to be cautious with him today. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (5) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent and hard to win with; better over C&D early in the month but typically failed to build on it at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago (said to have been unsuited by racing wide throughout from stall 9); Dicko The Legend looks his yard's best shot. |

23rd Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
He's now 9lb lower than when completing a double last September and he got a bit closer to the target at Windsor ten days ago; finished second off a 4lb higher mark in this race last year; revival imminent. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Often leads; 7f winner at this meeting in 2024 and he went out on his shield in the Gold Cup (soft) last year off 1lb lower, giving up his lead only late on; had two wind surgeries in 2026, returning from the latest one with two solid efforts, struck into when sixth in the Portland at Doncaster last week; cheekpieces return in place of a visor; good form chance. |
8/1 |
|
6th 15 (3) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Made all in a 6.5f handicap at this meeting 12 months ago before a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup six days later (off this mark); first two runs this year weren't up to much but he had wind surgery in June and last month's midfield finish at York was much more like it; a visor is now reached for, replacing cheekpieces, and he is an interesting contender. |
12/1 |
|
9th 18 (8) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Ended 2025 with a Doncaster win and a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft); had a wind operation after the Ayr run but two heavy defeats this summer have seen him undergo another wind surgery; on a dangerous mark but Ayr next month might be the big target; cheekpieces back on today. |
