7th 8 (5) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 34y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Made giant strides in the second half of 2024 and she carried on the good work when winning in Listed company at Haydock in May (5f, good); struggled at Royal Ascot but of more concern are her two sub-par efforts since; others look more solid. |
10/1 |

9th 7 (11) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
She has made giant strides since making her handicap debut off a mark of 69 at Haydock last July, winning five times, most recently in Listed race at Haydock in May (5f, good); only ninth at Royal Ascot but she raced furthest from the main action and still looked in peak form; drying ground wouldn't be ideal, though, and she has the widest stall to overcome. |
8/1 |

17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Progressive 4yo who made great strides in the autumn with a hat-trick at about 5f on heavy and soft ground; a recent Listed win at Haydock (5f, good) suggests she's still improving, but this is likely to be hard labour. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
2-2 over C&D; shaped encouragingly after two-month absence with third of ten in 5.5f Doncaster handicap last month; that race has already produced two winners so he merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark. |

4th Apr 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Two lengthy absences to his name and has lacked consistency since returning from 16 months off; this mark is within range if the first-time tongue-tie helps and he's on a going day but there are risks involved. |

4th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Two lengthy absences to his name and returns from a ten-week break today, having run below par at a short price latterly; otherwise he showed himself capable at this level in a couple of his runs last autumn and is one to consider. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
String of consistent efforts before winning off 3lb lower in a less-competitive Nottingham handicap last month; found it beyond him under a penalty a few days later and, while he's fine round here, he's weighted to his best again. |
6/1 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Right behind Accrual here before justifying favouritism at Nottingham (5f) three days ago despite an awkward start; the penalty might just find him out. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ultra-consistent and arrives following a solid effort at Thirsk (same mark as tonight; his last winning rating); boasts a good record at this time of year and this is less competitive, so his claims are obvious. |

3rd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time turf winner, latterly off this mark in June, who hasn't achieved a lot on the AW; lost his way of late and is some way down the pecking order. |
25/1 |

11th 7 (1) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Five wins over 5f/6f on varying ground on turf, the latest at Chepstow (5f, soft; first-time tongue-tie) in June; twice held since, though, and needs to get back on track. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No great love for softer surfaces these days, but her present good heart still carried her to second at Lingfield latest (good to soft); record of 13412 in C&D class 5s includes June's win (good to firm); chance. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Refound some form last two outings for first and second at Yarmouth; best efforts last year were better still but, despite form on testing ground earlier in career, she came last of six on last season's two runs on soft. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won this race last year off a 5lb higher mark and came back to form when pulling away with one other over C&D a fortnight ago; has had her moments at the stalls and isn't the most consistent but will rightly be popular. |
