16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Completed a hat-trick of wins in this race a year ago (good to firm; 2lb lower mark); not in such good form this season and probably best watched for now. |

24th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ran up a four-timer around this time last year, including two course wins, latterly off a 3lb lower mark; back in form last time and has a fair chance of making it 4-8 round here. |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Only 2lb higher than for his front-running win at Chelmsford in July but he hasn't matched it in three runs since, including back at Chelmsford 17 days ago; others appeal more. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Returned to winning form when making all over C&D in July; twice held on turf in the meantime, but one for the shortlist if the return here galvanises him. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf but she wasn't disgraced after a break at Carlisle (1m, good to firm; 40-1) 17 days ago; may come on for that outing and she's not ruled out. |
11/1 |
|
6th 11 (9) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Hold-up performer whose record on turf reads 1-17 compared to 6-43 on the AW; shaped as if still in form when sixth of 11 at Lingfield (7f, AW) 117 days ago but may need her first outing since. |
20/1 |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Came from off the pace to win a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in fine style in December; beaten twice since but she hasn't run badly; fully exposed but a strong pace would enhance her claims. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Last five wins have come on the AW including when completing a hat-trick in the spring; has winning form on good to firm ground, but his last two efforts since returning to turf need improving upon. |
14/1 |

6th 7 (1) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Was recording wins eight, nine and ten when rattling off an AW hat-trick this spring (1m-8.6f); the wheels came off when well-beaten over C&D 33 days ago, however, and this mark looks beyond him. |
20/1 |

10th 6 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has rattled off a hat-trick on AW this spring including a clearcut win at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; this is tougher off 9lb higher but he remains feasibly treated on his old form and is a five-time winner on turf; key player. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time 7f/1m winner in 2025, including over this C&D; mainly below his best this season but he didn't run too badly when sixth at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 12 days ago; on a handy mark and now drops in grade. |
5/1 |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
A three-time 7f/1m winner in 2025; mainly well below par this season though, only 14th in 1m1f York handicap last month; has it to prove at present. |

Three-time 7f/1m winner in 2025; good second at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) in April but well beaten behind some of today's rivals on his two outings since. |

21st Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His only win came in a 7f Doncaster maiden as a 2yo; struggled for David Evans thus far but he's dropped 22lb since August and many of those runs have come over an inadequate 6f; the booking of Rossa Ryan and the addition of a visor point to a better showing this evening; confidence would increase if backed. |
