10st 0lb |
Six AW wins on his record, three of them at this track; solid third at Lingfield on Good Friday, on second run for this stable, and he's undergone wind surgery since; promising apprentice takes off 5lb and he's one to consider. |

Ran creditably on his stable debut at Southwell 12 days ago and returning to 6f won't be a problem; not sure he's ahead of his mark though. |

9st 8lb |
C&D winner for Clive Cox in August 2024; down the field in two runs for new connections after 418 days off but has looked to retain some ability; this race should prove a better guide as to where he is at the moment. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Four-time AW winner in Britain; pleasing start for this yard when staying on third at Leopardstown (7f, good) in August and excuses following month when disappointing favourite at Fairyhouse (ground, too keen and not clear run); drops in grade for AW return, Keane booked. |
4/1 |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |

Pleasing start for this yard when staying on from the rear for third at Leopardstown (7f, good); nine-time winner dropped 2lb for that and has won off higher marks in the past; best turf form is on good ground. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
In-form 9yo whose last four runs have been over C&D; failed narrowly under a penalty two weeks ago (behind Fifty Nifty) but 1lb lower here and should be involved. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (7) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Retains plenty of vitality aged nine; record over C&D features wins in this race two years ago and in his last two starts, latest by a neck seven days ago; rock-solid kept to this scenario and likely to remain competitive even with 4lb penalty. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Runner-up off 6lb higher at Redcar (5f, good) in June but hasn't kicked on from that and hopes are pinned on first-time blinkers prompting a revival; unproven on soft/heavy ground. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (5) |
19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Went very close off 5lb higher at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) in March but he's been up and down since; had an excuse in the mud at Haydock last time but losing run is now up to 13 and others are more convincing. |
16/1 |
|
9th 10 (12) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
He has finished runner-up twice this season, including at Redcar (5f, good) off 4lb higher, but he failed to justify support when seventh at Beverley three weeks ago; career-low mark but his modest strike-rate (2-27) tempers confidence and there's a soft-ground query too. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Commenced the campaign with turf/AW wins and has made the frame in most starts since, close second at Yarmouth latest; back up in class but receives weight all round; could go well. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 11 (8) |
16th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 1f 21y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Has won at this track on soft; upped markedly to 1m3f at Southwell (AW) last month and led 2f out until three rivals went past in the final 1f; that was a good run, followed admittedly by a lesser show at York but that was over 1m4f; could be a player back here at 1m1f. |
20/1 |
|
8th 16 (6) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Acts on soft; unproven beyond 1m and unraced beyond 1m1f until he tried 1m3f at Southwell (AW) 15 days ago and led 2f out until three rivals went past in the final 1f; that was a good run and his dam won at this trip but others clearly have less to prove in this hot 1m4f race. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark for Simon Dow when making all in a 6f handicap at Lingfield (AW) in August; not so good twice since and stamina for 7f is unproven. |
12/1 |
|
9th 4 (4) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when making all and just holding on at Lingfield (6f, AW) last month; couldn't build on it back there 13 days ago and may be better suited by that extra furlong now. |
7/1 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Made all and prevailed narrowly over C&D last time, opening his AW account at the 14th attempt; back up 3lb but has defied higher marks on turf; likely to remain competitive. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time AW winner, most recently at Lingfield (6f) in January off the same mark as today's; left the impression he's still in form on soft ground at Salisbury 23 days ago and has place claims back on the AW. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (11) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All four wins have been on the AW but he does act on turf; beaten 4l when second of five at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) ten days ago but soft ground would be a slight concern. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |

Campaigned over sprint trips for former yard, winning over 6f here 11 months ago; in and out this year but he's been gelded since last seen and starts out for Ed Walker off a reduced mark; stamina the unknown. |
