11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won over this trip at Newmarket last autumn for Mick Appleby but three turf runs for current yard have been well below par; bit to prove. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Reappeared for new yard with a near-miss at Kempton (6f, AW) in March but he's struggled at 50-1 back on turf in last two runs; got hampered early on at Ascot last time but he's hard to predict and needs to bounce back near best. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins over 7f/1m on good and soft ground in the summer of 2024; looked about ready to strike when second of 12 at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) in June and now 3lb lower, but modest in both starts since; something to prove attempting this far for the first time. |

8th 11 (3) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Absent since having an excuse (track position) when beaten favourite in the Carlisle Bell three months ago; largely consistent otherwise and ran creditably over C&D earlier in June; rebound plausible. |
10/1 |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent sort who won three times last year (7f/1m, good/soft) and kept on for second at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) recently; the forecast slow ground is in his favour and he's high on the list for his in-form yard. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
He's not consistent but he won over C&D last November and ran really well when second of 18 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago; major player if he's once more on song. |
7/2 |

2nd 10 (16) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has gained all wins at shorter, including three times off higher marks at Doncaster; however, not disgraced over 8.5f last time and enters calculations back here. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Should be making a big impact at this level and he is 1lb lower than for his Southwell win (7f) in November; still to convince he wants this far though. |

26th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Conditions to suit and he is back to the same mark off which he beat Captain Parma here in October; not at his best at Southwell last week but he is the type to bounce back quickly. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Seven-time AW winner for Darryll Holland, notably of a 7f handicap at Southwell in March 2025 when 5lb higher; well beaten in three runs for Jim Boyle and, although the last two were on turf, enough to prove even back on AW. |
33/1 |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All seven wins have been on AW; yet to hit form in two runs for this yard; cheekpieces return but best watched at present. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
A fairly useful 6f-1m AW winner at his best for Darryll Holland, but he failed to beat a rival on his yard debut in 7f Kempton handicap in November; needs to take a big step forward after a break. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Prominent racer; made all in a small field at Brighton in April when rated 3lb higher; patchy since and has stamina to prove. |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Prominent racer; the pick of his form in the first half of the year brings him right into the reckoning but more recent efforts haven't quite been at that level; dropping into a Class 6 will help. |
7/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to encounter ground softer than good; placed at Yarmouth last Sunday; registered his most recent success off this mark over C&D in April; interesting back here. |
