9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well treated on best turf form; placed twice for new yard; down the field returned to AW last time and still has something to prove in this sphere; however, this class-drop may have positive effect. |
10/1 |

8th 6 (10) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Runs over shy of 1m for the first time in ages (may well help) on her Tapeta debut; shown enough in three runs for her current, in-form yard to suggest this mark is well within reach; shortlisted. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
All three wins for Alice Haynes were on ground slower than good; had lost her way but the signs have been a tad more encouraging for James Owen and she's on a dangerous mark. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
A bit underwhelming at Hamilton a fortnight ago but went there in good form, having won at Musselburgh (1m, good) previously; has won over C&D on soft ground and can be a contender if leaving latest run behind. |
11/2 |
|
6th 3 (6) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
This is his time of year and, after a close second over C&D (good) last month, he went one better at Musselburgh (1m, good) last Tuesday; fully at home on slow ground and firmly in calculations under a 4lb penalty. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Ended 2025 with a win at York (1m2f, good) and returned from 208 days off to win at Chester (10.3f, good) in May; not much has gone right since and he was disappointing in a seller last time; vulnerable. |
33/1 |
|
6th 2 (7) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Gained a second C&D win in May but his more recent form is far less encouraging, beating just one in 1m2f York handicap 13 days ago; this is much easier though so he can't be discounted back here. |
6/1 |
|
14th 6 (16) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner on final start of last season and opened this campaign with a win at Chester (1m2f, good); essentially disappointing since then and will do well to bounce back from his wide draw. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Short-headed at Carlisle (1m, good) in August and he's also gone close on soft ground in the past; however, he's failed to threaten on his last two outings and this 6yo remains without a win since September 2022. |
12/1 |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Below par returned to Ascot (1m) most recently; still on a three-year losing spell but is very attractively weighted, being 12lb lower than when favourite for this contest 12 months ago (finished third). |
12/1 |
|
10 (1) |
5th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Bettered his 2023 third in this when runner-up (under Becky Smith) to Terries Royale in last year's soft-ground renewal; last win came off a 13lb higher mark in September 2022 but he went mighty close at Carlisle (1m, good) one month ago and this has likely been a target; player again despite stall 1 probably not being ideal. |

5th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
C&D winner (good to soft) just over four years ago; on a losing run since going back-to-back at Nottingham and Newmarket (both heavy at around 1m) in the autumn of 2023 and recent efforts are not enough to tempt despite this falling mark. |
16/1 |

6th 8 (8) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Continues to drop down the weights but this 8yo struggled in the main last season and it was the same story on last month's reappearance; needs to turn things around. |

14th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner but has trailed in last on two most recent starts; has had his second wind op since and difficult to place too much faith in. |
50/1 |
|
11th 8 (11) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner whose most recent win was at Kempton (1m, AW) last October off 1lb lower; not so good in his only four races since; absent 187 days before his last of 12 at Sandown four weeks ago, so he's a touch speculative this time. |
20/1 |
|
12th 3 (5) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Front-runner who won at Kempton (1m, AW) last October; however, this 8yo wasn't at the top of his game at Southwell (1m, AW) in January and he may improve for this first outing since. |
