16th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has the same mark as when winning at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) almost exactly one year ago, on her final start last season and the last time she was ridden by Billy Loughnane; that was her fifth career win, and she stays 1m4f and used to look effective on Tapeta but a revival is needed on this first run since May. |

Ended her 2025 campaign with an August win but hasn't been in anything like the same form since returning to action and is the most exposed, as well as the oldest, contender in this field. |

1m2f AW win April off 2lb lower; mixed bag since but he is a C&D winner on good to soft and a prominent showing would seem likely. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Got competitive some way out at Salisbury last time (1m2f, good to firm) and was mugged on the line; respected off 1lb higher, for all that he's yet to prove his stamina for this far. |

9st 11lb |
Posted career-best performance when winning on Poytrack at Lingfield (1m2f) in April, after a break, but subsequent turf form has been underwhelming and he's still on a fairly tough mark; cheekpieces refitted in bid to perk him up. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Veteran who's had ten wins overall and has a 3-22 record at Windsor, which also includes five seconds; he's not sparked this season but the best of those performances was a C&D third on reappearance and he's now 8lb lower, racing off a career-low mark. |

10yo who is a ten-time winner, but he's not posed a threat in four runs this season and was beaten 8l at Ffos Las (1m4f, good) last time; mark continues to fall but he needs to rediscover his spark. |

Five wins to his name and he's 8lb lower than for the last of them (March 2023); hasn't beaten a rival in three runs this year; hopes pinned on the drop to Class 6 company sparking a revival. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Polytrack winner who scored twice over this trip on turf last autumn; wasn't helped by being pestered for the lead when a well-held third of four at Salisbury (1m,6f, good to firm) last month, but still 3lb above his last winning mark; more will be needed. |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Gained his most recent success in C&D event (good) last October; best effort this term when going close at Salisbury (1m4f) on penultimate start; not disgraced in higher grade here latest; fighting chance returned to Class 5 and back up in trip. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |

Perhaps better over further and when going close over C&D a month ago he was edged out by a 66-1 chance who wasn't in much form before that race and has disappointed since; may need a tad more here, though Taryn Langley takes off a handy 5lb. |

9st 9lb |
Won a Beverley handicap last summer when trained by Charles Hills; close third on his stable debut in August (1m2f, good to firm) but he has been well held twice since; full revival needed. |

3rd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

Well-beaten sixth at Newbury last month on second stable start but that was a curious race (winner scored by 17l); prior to that he was a close third at Nottingham (1m2f) on his stable debut and he's run well on Tapeta elsewhere in the past; not written off in first-time cheekpieces. |

9st 10lb |
Can lead; creditable effort on second start for yard when runner-up at Pontefract (1m2f, good) in June but he's had problems at the stalls otherwise this year and refused to enter them in July; capable but risky. |

Clearcut winner at Sandown (1m2f, good to soft) last August but he's been disappointing this season, albeit failed to stay upped to 1m6f here latest; back on a good mark and down in trip/class but he's got a bit to prove at present. |

On a handy mark again now and his first three runs of this campaign confirmed he retained plenty of enthusiasm; off the boil more recently but he drops in class with Henry Callan booked; one to be interested in. |

Won twice over C&D (good/soft) last summer; has reached the frame on four of his five 2026 starts but beaten 6l when fourth at York latest and the return to Sandown needs to help him recapture his peak form. |

Has done well with cheekpieces, winning twice at 1m2f at Sandown (good/soft) last summer; started 2026 with three creditable in-frame efforts (including good to firm) but needs to shrug off a lesser effort over C&D four weeks ago. |
