29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won off reduced mark at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March and has remained in good form since; only faded out of contention in closing stages when fifth over C&D (good to soft; behind Too Much Trevor and Connie's Rose) last week and ought to be better suited by today's faster ground; one to consider. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Four-time C&D winner, including twice in the month of May; got his head back in front at Wolverhampton (7f) in March; respectable return to turf when third of 11 at Bath (1m good) 17 days ago; can be expected to go well back at Chepstow. |

Back to winning ways in a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in March; not so good back at Wolverhampton last month but 1m on fast ground is no problem and he is still on a fair mark. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Usually ridden patiently; step back in right direction when keeping-on fifth at Kempton (7f, AW) this month, but his three turf wins in 2025 were gained over 1m and he'll probably need a strong pace to aim at over this trip. |

5th 9 (8) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Most wins come later in the year and is high in the weights (13lb higher than when last successful on the AW) after three turf victories last summer; not been at his best in two runs back. |

Won four Class 6 handicaps (7f-1m) in 2025, including on good to firm and heavy ground; back on last winning mark but he's been out of sorts in last four runs and needs a major revival back on turf; cheekpieces removed. |

9st 5lb |
Went back-to-back in good-ground handicaps (7f/1m, including here) in September 2024 but no wins since and two runs last month (led before weakening) don't suggest another crack at this trip will turn the ship around. |

Won two in a row on turf in September 2024 but he's drawn a blank since and was well held on C&D reappearance (good) 12 days ago; may have needed that run but he's hard to predict and others are more convincing; blinkers reapplied. |

Veteran who scored over C&D in October, but she's not easy to predict and was 6l behind Nordic Glory here ten days ago; needs to bounce back again after that disappointing run and others are more persuasive. |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

9st 4lb |
Triple C&D winner for Robyn Brisland in 2021 and came good for current stable at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in June, having reportedly benefited from the reapplication of a hood; reverted to her free-going tendencies when midfield on consecutive outings without a hood last month, though, and the headgear is again missing here. |

Gained two of his six wins over this C&D, the latter in June; versatile ground-wise and seemingly on a workable mark but didn't fire here last week (raced too freely) and is unreliable. |

2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
