31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
His last win came over C&D last July (good; off 1lb higher) and he stayed on for a close third at Hamilton (5f, good) a fortnight ago; could build on that latest performance now back up in trip; firmly in calculations. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
May have needed his recent comeback from six months off at his age (cracked late on having raced prominently from a low stall over 6f round Chester); 2lb below his last successful mark and has won here before but David Allan has opted for Vince L'Amour. |

On a competitive mark with a handy inside draw but he is returning from a seven month absence and his connections are also represented by Miraculous. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four of his six wins have come over C&D, including the corresponding race in 2024; drew a blank in 2025 but retains ability and he has run some solid races in defeat this year too, keeping on for fourth at Beverley 18 days ago; drops in class but he has the widest stall to contend with. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

9yo who is on an 18-race losing run; good second over C&D last July (good to firm) and is now 3lb lower. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Has won two of three C&D starts (good and good to firm), the latest in July 2024; went very close to breaking the losing run when involved in a tight finish on Southwell AW in March; convincing claims. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and posted a respectable effort at Newmarket (5f, good) last month; however, he was down the field at Ascot (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago and is now just 1-46 on turf; others preferred. |
20/1 |
|
14th 15 (16) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and he is just 1lb higher today; solid effort at Newmarket 17 days ago when not ideally positioned; each-way claims at a track where he has run well in much better races than this one. |
12/1 |
|
4th 8 (6) |
14th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 6lb |
Close call in a Group 3 here in 2022 and deserves so much better than his very modest turf strike-rate, given how many fine races he continues to run in defeat, such as when going down narrowly to both Rosario and Regal Envoy on different 5f runs (good and good to firm) last May; some cold comfort that he won on AW in January but tough to support for the win. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Two narrow AW wins at 6f and 7f over the winter months; never involved back on turf at Thirsk (7f, good) recently and although this is less competitive her stamina for a tough 7f like this still has to be proved. |
16/1 |
|
9th 13 (13) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Successful twice (6f/7f) on AW during the winter but her mark edged up and she was only seventh at Newcastle on Good Friday; used to be just as effective on turf but she needs to bounce back and others appeal more. |
14/1 |
|
7th 11 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Coped well with the rise in class at Lingfield five weeks ago, finishing with a flourish and nabbing Powdering close home; that was her first attempt at 7f, and in a hood, and she could have more to offer at the trip. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
5lb lower than last winning mark and came close to taking advantage when finding only Vantheman too strong at Hamilton (5f, good) last week; meets that rival on 5lb better terms; should be involved in the shake-up once more. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 11 (8) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
C&D winner who boasts a good record at this time of year; will always be reliant on some luck given his hold-up style, which he hasn't had this year; on a handy mark when things do fall his way again, though, and is one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
5th 7 (10) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Trouble in running on both AW starts last month and same story at Pontefract last time, in the circumstances doing well to finish eighth of 13 from 4lb out of the handicap; he has a good record at Pontefract but could play a leading role off his proper mark today if getting the breaks. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Ended last season in good form on AW; has done most of her winning on turf but looks weighted to the hilt on reappearance, being still on a career-high mark; seems unlikely to improve aged eight. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
13th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
She was having just her third run on AW when running out the stylish winner of a C&D handicap nine days ago; a 4lb rise shouldn't be beyond her but stall nine tempers enthusiasm. |
