2nd Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 5 |

Five-time course winner, but he's never scored beyond 1m2f and his last success was in November 2023; well handicapped on his old form but he's been well held in last four starts and latest was over 1m6f here last month; opposable. |

Had a very solid campaign over 1m in handicaps and Listed races last term, including here on soft (unraced on heavy); did not reappear until three weeks ago, however, when below form at Newmarket trying 1m2f. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Well handicapped on even last year's best form for Ed Dunlop; 25-1 and shaped with more promise than the distance beaten suggests at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) in June; back to a more suitable trip today and he's an intriguing contender. |
10/1 |

5th 4 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Quite smart at his best for Ed Dunlop and he goes well on slow ground; however, essentially regressive in 2025 and new trainer has to turn him around. |
25/1 |

7th 3 (6) |
8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
All wins have come in the spring, mainly on soft ground, but there was no win this time round; has his lowest mark since 2020 but easily his best show this season was in March; usually wears a visor or cheekpieces and now he's blinkered first time. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Best on good ground as he showed when running away with the Sussex Champion Hurdle at Plumpton in April; however, that came at a cost to the tune of 10lb and he failed to fire behind Moon Chime in the Swinton; others might be better in here. |
12/1 |

10th 4 |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
4-6 on good ground over hurdles, notching another personal best when returning from a break to win readily at Plumpton (2m; 15-2) last month; a 10lb rise demands further improvement but he's thriving and should encounter suitable conditions again. |
5/1 |
|
1st 7 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Very progressive in completing a good-ground hat-trick last year and when third to Tutti Quanti in a Class 1 handicap at Newbury in November (soft); still on a competitive mark despite all that and for whatever reason he didn't show his true form at Kempton on final sighting at Christmas; if forgiven that, and he's had a break, then he enters the picture. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Found plenty for pressure to win by 2l on reappearance at Goodwood (1m2f, good) in May and kept on for solid third at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) since; those performances, allied with his pedigree, indicate this lightly raced 4yo will be suited by this step up in trip; major player. |

3rd 3 (4) |
26th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Runner-up on handicap debut at Newbury (1m2f, heavy) last October and reappeared with a well-backed win at Goodwood (1m2f, good) this month, finding plenty for pressure and prevailing by 2l; this unexposed 4yo could have more left in the tank and may well take a 7lb rise in his stride. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
No match for Filibustering when second at Cartmel (2m1f, good) on stable debut in June and has since been well beaten on the Flat but is well handicapped on some of his form for Alan King and will be suited by today's trip/ground; could have a say. |
7/1 |

5th 2 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Minor honours over 1m3f/1m4f in his two Flat handicaps this term (his last runs for Alan King) prior to his creditable second 19 days ago for new yard over hurdles; should be a serious player. |
3/1 |

2nd 8 |
28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |

Formerly with Alan King; creditable second at Warwick on latest hurdles start (2m, good) and has since finished third in a 1m4f handicap at Salisbury; stable debut; each-way chance. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Multiple winner down the years, including at this track, and all ground seems to come alike to him; dropping back into Class 4 will help but his stamina has to be taken on trust. |
20/1 |
|
11th 9 (10) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who won two in a row at Lingfield (1m2f/1m1f, good to firm) and maybe went off too hard when well beaten at Sandown (1m2f, good) last time; has won here twice and he might not be far away if bouncing back. |
20/1 |
|
9th 6 (11) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won this in 2021 and was third in one of the divisions 12 months ago; returns off a 6lb higher mark than last year but on the back of two wins at Lingfield, the latest narrowly from the front off 3lb lower; thriving 9yo who must have some sort of chance. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Had an excellent spell last autumn, winning two of his final three starts at 1m (good and heavy); needed further progress to win the Spring Mile at Doncaster in March and that didn't happen but he ran well for a long way; can be more of a factor under Brodie Hampson who won this last year. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

An ideal type for this prize having ended last term with a C&D win, showing career-best form; that was on heavy but he seems versatile as regards ground; further progress is not out of the question; shortlisted. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |

In good form on turf until folding tamely and well held last time; consistent in defeat on AW (four attempts) but he's 9lb higher than last appearance in this sphere. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive 4yo who has won three times this season (1m2f-1m4f, good to firm/good) and again ran well when third of five at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; there's every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

Doubled his tally at Newbury (1m4f) in May but beat only two in 1m3f handicap there following month; needs to hit the ground running after a layoff. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Was winning for the first time since his debut when just prevailing over 1m4f here (good) last month, but may not have been suited by the conditions when third of six at Yarmouth (11.5f, soft) 12 days ago; each-way claims. |
5/1 |

3rd 7 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Was winning for the first time since his debut when just getting the better of Patrol at Newbury (1m4f, good) last month; 5lb higher and could probably do with the ground drying out (best form on good or faster), but still respected. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
The last three of her seven wins were at Goodwood and she has never won on worse than good ground, but she was a respectable third on heavy at this meeting last year; seems flattered by margin beaten in Listed race on penultimate start but she followed that with a handicap second at same track. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 9 (3) |
12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Her last three wins have come here (good/good to firm) and the latest was over C&D in August; seems versatile ground-wise; outclassed in C&D Listed race last time and could play a leading role back in a handicap. |
8/1 |
|
10th 8 (8) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Successful off a mark of 70 in C&D handicap on penultimate start, taking Goodwood record to 3-4; return to this venue is a plus but she has easily the worst chance at the weights upped in class. |
