9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of dash, setting a good pace at Catterick 17 days ago before weakening into third (Tuscan Point second but 8lb worse off today); likely to make a beeline for the stands' rail and more minor money could be on the cards. |

3rd 3 (6) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
The old man of the party but he still likes to get on with it and has a good record here; solid comeback second on AW in January wasn't built on but he's back down to the same mark he won this race from last year; that was a fourth C&D win and he has to enter calculations. |
8/1 |

11th 5 (4) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Front-runner; ended 2025 campaign with a C&D second and filled the same position on his return in January, again over C&D; backward step last time but capable of a prominent showing off this mark. |

27th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple AW wins; much less prolific on turf but he was running over 5f on grass for the first time since a 2024 win when getting up near the line at Bath (firm) recently under James Glennon; has an awkward draw but this track may also suit; has to be considered. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (4) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A three-time 6f AW winner in 2025 and in good nick over the winter; just as effective on turf and this quirky sort is not out of things back from a break today. |
5/1 |
|
5th 1 (2) |
9th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins have been over C&D and has mostly run well since the latest of those in September; beaten just over a length into fourth of ten behind Sisters In The Sky here a fortnight ago, but is capable of reversing the form if producing his best. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Well backed when winning a 5f handicap at Pontefract (soft) last October but hasn't matched that since, including beating only one home over C&D three weeks ago; back on the mark he defied at Pontefract but would need to see money for him again. |
16/1 |

7th 8 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Turned things around with a win at Pontefract (5f, good) in October but he's been back in the doldrums in three subsequent runs; has plenty to prove again and needs another bolt from the blue. |

19th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Won a couple of nurseries here (5f/6f) in the autumn of 2023, but 0-19 since the latest of those despite a sliding mark; look elsewhere. |
