27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Retains plenty of vitality despite his advancing years; however, form dipped last time when bidding for a Chelmsford double; gained the most recent win in a lower grade. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Triple C&D winner who took advantage of a reduced mark when coming from rear to score at Brighton (7f, good) in August; remains well treated on old form but his spark was missing at Kempton last time and he needs to step up again after that. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Four wins include one over C&D (good) in May 2024; hasn't scored since August of that year but he's now 20lb lower and latest fourth of 13 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) was a solid effort despite hanging; should enhance creditable Brighton form figures of 21424. |
4/1 |
|
4th 13 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-30 on AW but he's won four times on turf (7f); struggled during the winter but he returned to this scene with a respectable effort at Yarmouth (6f, good) last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this step back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |
12/1 |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has been struggling on the AW but he's 0-30 in that scene and all four wins have been on turf, albeit over 7f; lurks on a dangerous mark but this trip is not ideal. |

3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; losing run stretches back over two years and he hasn't fired yet this year; dropped 10lb as a result but perhaps not ready to capitalise just yet. |
33/1 |

22nd Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Not run on the AW since 2022 and has regressed on turf in recent times, having been rated a stone higher at the start of last season; well held in three runs round his beloved Chepstow this year. |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded the 18th win of his long career when leading late over C&D in February (for Myla Coppins); ran well behind a thriving rival at Lingfield next time but he failed to fire over C&D a fortnight ago (finished behind Coloane); he has bounced back from quiet runs before so can't be ruled out. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
18th success of his long career when getting the better of Antiquity (winner since and runs in the 6.00) over C&D last month; bumped into an in-form opponent at Lingfield two weeks ago (7f; blinkered first time); another 2lb rise is not ideal but he is likely to give his running. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of enthusiasm and ran on well to beat a subsequent winner (Age Of Time third) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) three weeks ago, his 18th success; a 2lb rise not excessive but late in the day to be giving blinkers a go (has run well in new headgear before). |

19th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Best run for current stable when third in first-time cheekpieces at Brighton (7f, good to firm) last month; 1lb lower here but shade disappointing back at Brighton recently; now tongue tied; others appeal more. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just one win from 14 starts but that came off 2lb higher at Epsom (7f) last August and she returned to form with good third over C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago; responded well to first-time cheekpieces in that race and has claims if she can build on that. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (3) |
20th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
A 7f winner in 2023 for Ali Stronge but she has failed to build on her debut for her current yard on two starts since, latest when ninth of 13 at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month; down 3lb but needs to step up. |

17th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
With only one win (last November) in more than two years and not being so good this season, he is some way down the pecking order. |

9th 6 (12) |
19th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Should be competitive off this mark and he didn't run badly at Newcastle last week; on the downside, he's another that likes to be on the sharp end and he's drawn wide to boot. |

22nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
All of his seven wins have been over shorter trips but he produced a strong finish when a 2l second over C&D (good) 18 days ago; on unchanged mark and has possibilities if he can find some extra spark. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Seven wins, all on good to firm over 6f and 7f; record over 1m is less compelling and he was never in the hunt over C&D on last month's reappearance; minor money perhaps his best hope. |
10/1 |
|
9th 1 (6) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often came to hand early in the past but is getting on now and has never won first time out; carries a big weight, ideally suited by an easy 7f and today's stiff 1m doesn't appeal as optimal. |
16/1 |
