1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual course winner early in the year for 5lb claimer Ryan Kavanagh, and will be happier back on the AW and down from 7f; would have been better off with all bar one were this a handicap, however. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won two classified events at Wolverhampton (5f/6f) this year but he's not made an impact in last three runs; this step back up to 7f is no problem but he needs to find more to get back on the scoresheet. |

Two wins this year, both in Wolverhampton classified races (5f/6f); probably needs to find something extra in this handicap, though, and below form on last two starts (both 5f). |

Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win. |

He'd been quiet in 2024 but he attracted support dropped into a Class 6 at Chelmsford ten days ago and duly ran better, third of 11 (cheekpieces first time) from a wide stall; high on the list. |

Has shown inconsistent form, mostly on AW, this year and ran below par over C&D in most recent turf attempt; far from sure to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
20/1 |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won off 9lb higher at Bath (5.6f) last August but he's been up and down since then and has been well held in last three starts; has plenty to prove again and he's not run over this trip since 2021. |

Should be making a big impact off this sort of mark but mixed record early in the year and well held, albeit after 164 days off, at Brighton five weeks ago; others look safer. |

2-4 over 6f here and 3lb lower than when winning at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) in May; not really threatened since, though, and needs the cheekpieces to bring about a resurgence (has worn a hood). |

8st 11lb |
Made all at Lingfield (5f classified) in January but that was a narrow success and he's been vulnerable to finishers in five subsequent runs; could be the same story here and he looks opposable back in a handicap. |
14/1 |

5th 2 (9) |
10th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Won a similar contest at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) in January and his proven early speed is an asset over this C&D, but the outside stall poses a problem; cheekpieces return. |

Fifth AW win came over 5f at Lingfield in January in second-time cheekpieces but backward steps since and was well beaten at Wolverhampton (6f) 12 days ago; he's won on turf but needs to return to form in the added blinkers. |

All five wins have been on turf, rattling up a three-timer in October 2024; it's been downhill since and while cheekpieces replace usual blinkers, he makes little appeal here. |

28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

8st 11lb |
Drawn wide back up to 6f last time and that run is best overlooked; previously in good form over C&D, winning at a short price late last month in 0-55 company, but this race is stronger and he's 6lb higher. |
12/1 |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual C&D winner who recorded his eighth AW win when coming from last to first at Southwell (5f) last week; 5lb higher under a penalty but he remains feasibly treated and is a big player again back up in trip. |
7/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven AW wins have come elsewhere but he has often run well over C&D and did so again when only narrowly failing to end a losing run here on Saturday; had no problem with returning to 5f for the first time in over a year and a likely candidate. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to make all but has become tactically versatile; all four wins have been at Chelmsford where he ran well from a wide draw 11 days ago; 0-6 on the AW here but three times a runner-up and much respected from stall 1. |
11/4 |
|
5th 9 (9) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has been a trailblazer in the past, but showed he didn't have to lead when successful off this mark on his reappearance over C&D in May (all four wins here); should appreciate the return to this venue following three lesser efforts on turf and one for the shortlist despite the outside stall. |
9/2 |
|
6th 2 (2) |
9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All four wins have come on the AW at Chelmsford including from 2lb lower on his reappearance in May (5f); however, he is 0-26 elsewhere and 0-15 on turf so not hard to have reservations. |
