2nd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Dual winner last spring (including over C&D) and comes here in good nick after a spell in Meydan; he's not discounted. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Ran in snatches and reportedly hung right when well beaten at Haydock latest; something to prove after that but progressive previously, winning twice in the spring (1m2f, good), and could bounce back with a big run. |

14th 6 (10) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Won four in a row last summer and kicked off this campaign with another two wins (1m2f, good); no match for well-treated winner at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) since but the time looks right for him to have a first crack at 1m4f and he could play a leading role. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Has performed well in several notable handicaps, including a strong success at Windsor (2m; beat the subsequent County winner) in January and good second at the Cheltenham Festival (upped to 2m4f, soft) last time; solid contender who looks set for another big run. |

2nd 23 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Fairly useful hurdler at about 2m and ran creditably (lost two places close home; finished fourth) in the Fred Winter at this meeting 12 months ago; bagged a valuable pot at Windsor (soft) in January but form dipped last time; goes into unknown territory over this longer distance. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
5yo who races prominently and has been progressive this season in some competitive handicaps, finishing second at Ascot (1m7f, good to soft) in December and winning at Windsor (2m, soft) last month; up 5lb for last time but he did it nicely and could continue to improve; respected. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Good fourth in this in 2024 (soft) and respectable eighth last season (good to soft), making his reappearance each time; runner-up on three of his five subsequent starts last term (good to soft/soft); his four wins have come on soft/heavy going and such testing ground today seems unlikely. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
4-9 over C&D including landing this race three years ago, but his starts have increasingly become a problem, flatly refusing to do so here in October; too risky. |
20/1 |
|
10th 9 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Increasing tendency to blow the start last season culminated in a refusal to race on final appearance; that was at Newbury, where he'd previously been at his best; he's contrastingly 0-6 on AW and none of his form in this sphere lives up to today's mark; probably best watched. |
40/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Last four wins were over C&D, including on heavy last September and good to soft in same race this year; ran respectably off this 5lb higher mark (career high) at York latest; increasing tendency to blow the start is a major worry but C&D record puts him high on the list; also declared at Doncaster. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Generally kept away from fast ground but won easily on good to firm over 1m2f here for Olivia Tubb early in the month; retains most of her ability for a yard enjoying a good spring but she's often come to hand early in the past and a 7lb rise will test her. |

1st 6 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Registered his seventh win when scoring on reappearance at Newbury (1m2f, good) last year and he attracted support before finishing second to an unexposed sort at Epsom (8.5f, good) on recent comeback this time; might not come on a bundle for that but this trip is more suitable and he's in with an each-way chance. |
3/1 |

2nd 7 (9) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Seven wins include five off higher marks than this and one at this track (1m2f, good to soft; has won on good) in 2023; this trip might be on the short side but he went close on his reappearance in 2024 (1m2f) and scored off 2lb higher on his comeback last term (1m2f); not readily dismissed. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Multiple turf winner at up to 11.5f; less effective on AW surfaces but her best such effort was when last tried at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in May; if able to repeat that form she would have claims from this 5lb lower mark but she's not easy to predict. |
12/1 |

10th 2 (10) |
5th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
1m2f win here in April in a consistent season, bar one blip; raced freely in the lead when she last tried this sort of trip (penultimate start) but she did well over 11.4f on soft when held up last October; each-way player. |
10/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Bar one blip she's been running well for George Scott and won over this trip at Haydock in April off the very same mark; last two runs weren't bad at all, having not got the run of things at Ripon and she raced freely when third at Catterick (1m4f). |

Low-mileage 4yo who won on turf last term; gelded prior to his good second behind Road To Wembley at Chelmsford (1m6f) on AW/seasonal debut; may well build on that effort; respected upped further in distance. |

Well beaten in two of his three handicaps last season but his keeping-on fourth of 13 at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) in between was a good effort; gelded during subsequent layoff and remains lightly raced; up in trip for seasonal/AW debut; not ruled out. |

9st 7lb |
Sole win at 1m on Polytrack; close third over the extended 1m1f on Tapeta last time but has more to prove at 1m2f on turf, even if this is a better fit than the Class 2 he ran in at Newmarket in July or even the 1m1f on Sandown's stiff finish in June; still has a gap in his record, though. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Unplaced all three times since a successful handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW) in March, but close behind Mr Monaco when front-running fourth of seven at Sandown (1m1f, good to firm) on latest outing; visored in the latter and today; withdrawn last Saturday when the ground was soft (tried heavy as 2yo) which is a worry. |
