21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Placed plenty of times since last success and current mark is attractive; well capable of taking a serious hand but his losing run is mounting up and latest effort wasn't one of his best. |
10/1 |

8th 4 (12) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; no win anywhere since October 2024 but he's been placed this year on both his visits to Windsor (5f, good to firm); drawn wider this time but he's considered each-way. |

18th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more. |
16/1 |

4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper. |
20/1 |

7th 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Three-time course winner but last season ended on a low note and he was tailed off here on last month's return, albeit on ground faster than ideal. |
12/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Three-time C&D winner, most recently last May; absent since two disappointing runs here last August, though, and would appeal more on good or slower ground. |
13/2 |
|
5 (2) |
1st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins this season, the latter from the front over C&D (good to soft) in May; also suited by good to firm ground and last month's down-the-field finish here can be excused (stumbled leaving stalls) but others in this line-up look better handicapped; finished last of 13 in first-time visor here yesterday. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Prolific 5f winner, including over C&D, most recently at Chelmsford in October off 2lb lower; however, he was disappointing back at Chelmsford in February and has a bit to prove this time. |
5/1 |
|
8th 5 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Recorded his 11th AW win when narrowly beating Shalaa Asker over C&D in October; been absent since then but he's only 2lb higher than for that last win and he has won after a break in the past; dangerous on return. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His C&D win last October came off a 16lb higher mark so his ability for a race of this nature isn't in doubt; he hasn't been firing in recent starts though, including when well supported. |
6/1 |
|
9 (6) |
18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Two 6f wins in 2024, both off a mark 14lb higher than today's; the odd promising sign this year and Hector Crouch replaces a 7lb claimer tonight. |
14/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
6th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
5yo who has a regressive profile but has dropped down the weights and took a step back in the right direction when sixth of 14 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June last time; might not be far away. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In-form front-runner who has two wins, a second and two thirds to his name in five runs here; on career-high mark, though, having been put up 5lb for his Newmarket win early in the month under 7lb claimer Chloe Lyons. |
4/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Tough and consistent sort who made all over C&D (good to firm) under Chloe Lyons last Saturday; raised 5lb but likely to give it his usual good shot. |
9/4 |
|
1st 1 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Tough 5f performer, holding his form well; close third under regular rider Chloe Lyons at Windsor on Monday; should give it his best shot again. |

26th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Fluffed the start when last of seven behind Cabeza De LLave last week; overall profile unconvincing. |

7th 6 (2) |
17th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Disappointing in sole run this term but is open to improvement now handicapping over new trip (looks worth a go at 5f); interesting. |
