1st 7 |
28th Sep 2024 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
A fairly useful 2m3f hurdles winner in May, 2022, who has been in excellent form since returning on the Flat this summer, bagging a third win at Chelmsford (1m6f) nine days ago; he's not taken lightly back in this sphere. |
5/1 |
|
1st 3 (2) |
19th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Has returned from nearly two years off in terrific form on the Flat, winning a slowly run race at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) and coming right away at Leicester (1m2f, good to soft) ten days later; good second at Brighton (1m4f) on Tuesday; well handicapped under a penalty if he can keep up the good work after just a two-day break. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
17th Sep 2024 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Mostly hurdling since trained in Britain but he's returned from nearly two years off in terrific form on the Flat, winning on AW (1m4f) on second run back and coming right away at Leicester (1m2f, good to soft) last week; a big rise looms so his claims are very obvious with no penalty. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Creditable second in small field on penultimate start; successful over C&D (off 2lb lower) last July but wasn't in the same form returned to this scenario (behind two of today's rivals) in latest outing. |
14/1 |
|
8th 4 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Four Flat wins to his name, including over C&D, and he was second of four at Lingfield 18 days ago (1m6f, good); should run his race but perhaps vulnerable for win purposes. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Four wins last year including one over hurdles and two over this trip on the Flat; just 2lb above his last winning mark, but needs to put a tame effort at Nottingham (1m6f, good) last month behind him. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Scored over hurdles at Stratford last May but below par on the AW over the winter, beating just one home in 1m2f handicap at Chelmsford in February; more is required after a break in a change of headgear. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D scorer but she's not proving the easiest to predict of late, tried in a change of headgear when only sixth of eight in 1m handicap here last month; others are preferred. |
12/1 |

6th 8 (6) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three of her wins on the Flat have been over 1m2f; failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in November but she ran a better race when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 26 days ago; cheekpieces replace the visor but this is the shortest trip she has encountered since July 2023. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Well backed when winning here on the AW over 1m4f in December but never featured when beating only one rival home 19 days ago; 0-9 on turf and others are preferred. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Well backed when winning over C&D in December off a 2lb lower mark (ridden by Myla Coppins); the odd solid effort since and he can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |
|
9th 3 (13) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not the most consistent, but has won six times on the AW including five over 1m4f/1m5f at Lingfield; has run well here, but stall 13 isn't ideal even over this trip. |

9st 9lb |
Belatedly got off the mark when sporting a first-time hood (kept since) on good to soft over C&D in July; short-headed next time and ran respectably when coming from behind at Bath (heavy) on latest; each-way claims. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Off the mark for the season when winning a 1m2f handicap at Doncaster 16 days ago, suited by the strong pace; 3lb higher mark to contend with and his stamina isn't assured. |
100/30 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Some return to form in his last two races and wasn't far away over 1m here last time when a stronger pace would have helped; interesting returned to further, having won over this far. |
11/4 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Latest Nottingham third in this headgear was a bit better and he'll be a threat to all if recapturing the form he showed when a close second over C&D (good to firm) off 2lb higher in April, particularly with Jack Callan taking an additional 3lb off. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |

1m2f AW win April off 2lb lower; mixed bag since but he is a C&D winner on good to soft and a prominent showing would seem likely. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Got competitive some way out at Salisbury last time (1m2f, good to firm) and was mugged on the line; respected off 1lb higher, for all that he's yet to prove his stamina for this far. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Posted career-best performance when winning on Poytrack at Lingfield (1m2f) in April, after a break, but subsequent turf form has been underwhelming and he's still on a fairly tough mark; cheekpieces refitted in bid to perk him up. |

9st 4lb |
Five wins on AW, including at Southwell (1m6f) last time; may remain competitive but looks by no means guaranteed to follow up, being 0-15 in Flat turf events; just 1-20 over hurdles. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual C&D winner; beaten 2l when fourth of six here last month and he was unfortunate not to go even closer when fourth of 12 at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; short of room late on) 16 days ago; switches back to the AW with a good chance. |
7/4 |

4th 3 (7) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Returned to the Flat with respectable fourth of six at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last month but is still 3lb higher than for narrow AW win last autumn, and his Flat turf strike-rate is 0-14. |

It's now 15 runs since his last success but this course winner posted a solid third of ten over C&D 17 days ago; he's one for the shortlist. |

1st Feb 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Winner of 12 races under rules including two here, but losing run up to 16 and he ran poorly at this venue (1m4f) a fortnight ago; enough to prove. |
