13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
C&D scorer who has not been seen since beating just one (stumbled halfway) in 5f Lingfield handicap in September; she needs to hit the ground running. |
7/2 |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Expensive to follow this year, for all that she's a winner (5f, good to firm; 5-4f); has the ability to be competitive at this level but stall 7 is wide enough and she's light on AW experience (figures of 636 at Wolverhampton). |

10th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Losing run is now 16 and slow starts continue to hold him back, even when sent over 6f; a stiff 5f is manageable but he's risky from a win perspective. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
3rd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Has more ability than most with his sort of mark but he isn't easy to win with; this track suits and Laura Coughlan has won on him a couple of times, so he is one to consider, especially given his penultimate effort was promising. |
4/1 |

26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Dual course winner last season (5f/6f) and ran big race in defeat over C&D (good to firm) 11 days ago; pretty versatile regarding ground and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

16th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Went close off 5lb higher at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) in August but she's not matched that since and has finished seventh over C&D in last two runs; overall record now stands at 1-22 and others are preferred. |

16th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Yet to win in 2024 but he's run some sound races in defeat; rarely seen on AW these days but his last run here saw him record an RPR of 71 over 6f (March 2023); not ruled out. |
10/1 |

5th 1 (5) |
3rd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Multiple winner down the years and served notice that he was ready to add to his tally when a close fourth over C&D (good to soft) eight days ago; closely matched with My Delilah and Some Nightmare on that run; rain no hindrance; contender. |
3/1 |

26th Aug 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back-to-back wins in 2023 (extended 5f, good to soft; 6f, soft), the latter off 2lb higher; slow to get in the swing this year but he put up a better show when third of five at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) last time, when persevering well; this slower ground should suit; weights chance. |

17th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Most wins have come in the second half of the year, mainly on turf, and there's nothing to suggest she's best caught first time out; others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |

6th 5 (1) |
3rd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Capable at this level and four of her turf wins have come at this track; laboured effort in a stronger race here when last seen in July but there are positives today, including the prospect of rain and the booking of a talented 3lb claimer; not discounted. |
10/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
It was an uncompetitive four-runner classified event in which she finished second at Ffos Las nine days ago; conditions shouldn't be an issue but this will demand more of her. |
