25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Reliable sort who posted a solid fourth of 13 in 7f Southwell handicap 30 days ago; not ruled out in his bid for a breakthrough success. |

26th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
0-9 but finished runner-up in his first two career starts at this venue (7f/1m) at the start of the year; an extra furlong may suit him ideally now, but the drop in class and return here make him interesting. |
4/1 |

5th 7 (3) |
21st Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up in his first three starts earlier in the year and filled the same position with a tongue-tie added over C&D a fortnight ago; a stiffer test may suit him ideally, but still one for the shortlist off 1lb higher. |

31st May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Dual winner for Jamie Osborne last year, the latest at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in October; regressive in three starts over 7f here since returning for this yard in March, though, and will need the switch to cheekpieces to make a difference; yard also runs Golden Pharaoh. |

28th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Off the mark at the 13th attempt when scoring with tongue-tie reapplied at Windsor (1m, good; 18-1) 12 days ago; that was a narrow win but he's only 3lb higher here and has possibilities if he can transfer his form back to AW. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Resumed progress when winning by 2l at Newbury (6f, good to firm) on latest start, coming from towards rear; raised another 6lb but earns plenty of respect for his 6f record over the past year. |
9/2 |
|
1st 1 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Made good progress last year, collecting four 6f wins along the way, but made nothing better than a satisfactory reappearance in May and is still on a fairly tough mark for this first run since. |
16/1 |

10th 7 (14) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
His two wins for Ross Burdon have come at a lower level; disappointed at Kempton when last seen and although he is relatively unexposed at 6f, he will need a clear personal best to take this after 108 days off. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Now 2-3 over C&D having blown the start and hit a bit of traffic a fortnight ago; also had excuses here previously and she'd been consistent prior to that, but she has to prove this mark is within range. |
20/1 |
|
6th 10 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has scored twice over C&D this year; was denied her hat-trick (8.5f) last month after being hampered at the start and denied a clear run when looking to challenge; may be worth another chance. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice in July, including here (1m2f, good), and his last two runs have seen him hamstrung by pulling far too hard; drops in trip on what will likely be the slowest ground he has encountered; risky. |
6/1 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won twice over 1m2f last month (good and good to firm); pulled his chance away when third to Mariner at Doncaster 16 days ago; stamina for 1m4f has to be taken on trust but Henry Callan is 5-7 for James Owen and he should give it another good go. |
9/2 |

3rd 1 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |

All the better for a hood returning, winning two of his last three races; overcame some traffic issues to prevail narrowly at Windsor 12 days ago (1m2f, good to firm); 3lb higher. |

7th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Recorded a 40-1 win at Haydock (6f) on 2yo debut; has failed to match that form since, mostly finishing last; first-time headgear needs to have major effect. |

Modest Flat performer at up to 1m6f (only win came on AW early in 2025); not been at best recently; hurdles debut. |

12th 10 (1) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |

Nine-race maiden on turf, best recent run when third at Catterick in April (1m4f, good); hasn't done as well since. |

6th 10 (10) |
11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Just one win from his 25 starts but he was a good third over C&D last month and didn't see out 1m6f when fifth to Free Pic here last time; each-way claims back down in trip. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Wouldn't judge him harshly on his two turf defeats this summer but even his best AW form needs bettering if he is to come out on top here. |
20/1 |
|
21th 8 (19) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Took a step forward on the AW earlier in the year, at 7f and 6f, but he didn't make his turf debut until never involved in a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good) in May; comes from a line of superb turf sprinters but this is a difficult first handicap on grass, to put it mildly. |
66/1 |
|
7th 4 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
In good form on the AW this year, winning a handicap at Lingfield (7f) in February and running creditably when fourth in similar event at Newcastle (6f) on Good Friday; has shown he's up to Listed level but this is still a warm race in which to be making his debut on grass. |
