8th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Winner of ten races on the AW including three over C&D; still 1lb below his last winning mark and recent efforts suggest he remains capable of playing a part. |

Ten-time AW winner; just a respectable fifth at Wolverhampton (7f) this month but remains on a workable mark and can't be ignored. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Couple of 6f wins at Brighton last term; proved resurgent over C&D (good to soft) last week, going down by only a whisker; now 2lb lower and due to go back up 6lb in future; leading player. |
7/2 |

2nd 9 (1) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice here (6f) last year but on a downward trajectory since then; shaped okay here (fifth) on return from a 266-day absence in early September but his more recent AW efforts (6f-7f) have failed to offer further encouragement. |

21st Apr 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the 12th attempt in a 0-50 classified event over C&D last month and his heavy defeat in a handicap back here a week later can be forgiven on account of the draw; better berthed this time and could go well. |

5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Winning for the third time at Wolverhampton, and his first over further than 7f, when landing a C&D handicap in March; his stamina looked stretched by 9.4f when fourth 18 days ago; not ruled out back down in distance. |
5/2 |
|
4th 8 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His third win here when holding on grimly last month (8.6f), ending a two-year losing streak; only 2lb higher but he wouldn't be an obvious one to follow up and has never raced over quite this far. |
12/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All four wins at 7f, two on this track, but he lost out only narrowly over C&D in January (Lhebayeb third); found less over 1m at Newcastle (favourite) last month but is of more interest back at Wolverhampton. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ended 2024 by winning the corresponding race off 5lb lower; returned from 170 days off to win another C&D handicap in April (off this mark); not at his best in a Class 5 here two weeks ago but he was caught wide and shouldn't have that issue from stall 4; one to consider. |
9/2 |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Handy sort who has been running well on turf lately including when second of five at Chepstow (6f, good) last time; looks interesting now returned here with his record over C&D reading 113; high on list. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (7) |
19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Largely consistent since returning from break with 6f AW win in April, and lost out only by two necks when third in slightly better race than this at Newbury (6f, good to firm) last month; below that form when favourite over C&D soon afterwards but still features prominently in calculations. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won three of her first nine starts for Mick Appleby; a particularly slow start cost her dear when fourth to Maids Head at Chelmsford last time (sent off favourite, perhaps as she was unpenalised for winning an apprentice contest); 2lb higher here. |

Six-time winner, with five of those wins coming on turf; ran well when second of 11 here on the AW in December and switches to turf on her first start since; seems unsuited by ground softer than good. |

AW winner who is 0-8 on turf but is threatening to put that right, having finished second at Brighton (1m/7f, good/good to firm) the last twice; this in-form contender has to enter calculations. |

7th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

3rd Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Just one win to his name from 21 starts; chance on this summer's best efforts but his last two runs have been over 1m1f and 1m2f and he now drops to sprinting; others are safer. |

24th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins were in September including over C&D; mixed form since her last success but was a clear second at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) last time and has claims if she can back that up off an unchanged mark. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 4 (7) |
8th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins over 6f on the AW last September; had dropped 1lb below her last winning mark when a close fourth of 11 at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta; first-time cheepieces) 11 days ago, but her stamina for this far remains unproven. |
