3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Her Kempton success (1m3f, Polytrack) in July came in a race run at a crawl; still 3lb higher and out of the frame in three starts since; others preferred. |
8/1 |

26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Winner off 3lb lower here last month (1m3f); firmly put in her place at Lingfield since, including by a load of 3yos latest. |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Returned to winning form in a slowly run apprentice handicap at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) last month and probably didn't stay 1m5f here five days later; new mark has now kicked in and she looks vulnerable to younger legs. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner at around this trip last year (Chepstow maiden and Sedgefield novice); comes into this having won a Carlisle handicap on the Flat three weeks ago (1m1f, soft); quite interesting. |
7/1 |

1st 1 (5) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has a record of 3-7 (Flat/hurdles) for current yard; creditable third at Newbury (1m4f, good) on seasonal debut most recently; major player off same mark, assuming he copes with this drop back in trip (stiff track and forecast slow ground are helpful in that respect). |

22nd Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Four-time AW scorer who has proved consistent, including on grass, since most recent success (in May); went close off this mark at Chester (good) on last turf attempt; in the mix. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
3rd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice over 1m2f on Polytrack in the spring and has continued to run well, most recently runner-up at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack); that surface may suit better than Tapeta but he's not discounted here. |
3/1 |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins have been on the AW, the latest over 9.5f here in March last year; placed in a seller (9.5f) and a handicap (1m4f) here in April; poor run back on turf after a break last time; blinkers replace visor. |

7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
On lengthy losing run but he's been placed at Wolverhampton (9.4f/1m4f) in last two starts and three of his five wins have come over C&D; has each-way claims again back at this track. |
9/2 |

21st Apr 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Handy sort; has done most of his winning at Chelmsford, but he does act here (244232172); hasn't had many goes over this far, but finished second of 11 in his only previous attempt over C&D; interesting back up in trip at this level. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |

Five-time winner, all on good to firm ground; arrives in good form but the ground looks a potential stumbling block. |
7/2 |

3rd 2 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Best known as a Brighton specialist but also runs this track well; needs to rebound from disappointing C&D run four weeks ago but looked in good nick when scoring at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in June; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
7th 1 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Five-time winner who has been placed in half of his six visits here, including when third in this race in 2024; carries a 5lb penalty for winning at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago but Toby Moore's 7lb claim will aid his bid to go back-to-back; considered. |

4th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two creditable shows in midwinter, including over C&D, but his sole win was back in 2023 and he ran no sort of race on this track in January; needs to shrug that off. |
12/1 |
|
8th 9 (4) |
14th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
It's now 19 outings since his last victory but he wasn't discredited when fourth of ten in 1m Southwell handicap 11 days ago; possibilities. |
