8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Scored for the sixth time when making all at Newbury (13.5f, good to firm) off 1lb lower in July and gave it a fair go from the front when second at Bath (2m1f, good to firm; Educator third) three weeks ago; same mark and should make his presence felt. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Often a front-runner but he's a tactically versatile; six wins on turf (1m4f-1m6f) but he's not easy to predict and has been quiet on AW this winter; now only 1lb higher than for his last success but he still has stamina to prove at this trip and others are preferred. |

Completed a 1m6f double at Wolverhampton last summer but he's lost his way since and has been tailed off in two AW runs this spring; has lots to prove back on turf and he's 0-10 in this sphere. |

Early summer has always tended to be her time of year but she's regressed in recent times, is into the veteran stage and entitled to need this after seven months off; others hold more pressing claims. |

On a fairly tough mark but otherwise has plenty in his favour and ran a solid second over C&D last time; every chance. |

Two solid placed efforts since returning from a break, latest when a 7.25l third at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm; Magic Seven second) last month; should give another good account though he remains vulnerable off this sort of mark. |

9st 8lb |
A break may have helped and he's just 1lb higher than when winning at Newcastle (2m, AW) last October; however, he was down the field there in December on his first two runs for this yard; something to prove on return. |

8st 12lb |
Record of 32123 over 2m at Newcastle in his final five runs for D O'Meara; struggled on recent stable debut but the drop back to 1m4f was against him and he now takes a big step back up in trip; has claims if he can recapture his spark and he's not ruled out; visor the headgear of choice today. |
