14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Still 4lb higher than when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in May but has been pretty consistent since rejoining Tony Carroll in March and probably won't be far away. |

Three-time winner in the UK; some promise in Platino Bianco's race last week for all that he was only tenth. |

|
10th 19 (12) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
8st 11lb |
All three wins came when trained in UK; has been below form for this yard and has to stage a revival even from a dropping mark. |
33/1 |

9th 13 (14) |
28th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 25y |
9st 3lb |
Won twice over 5.5f at Bath in 2023 but has come up dry since; no show in three starts for this stable but handicapper relenting and Colin Keane is 2-9 for this yard. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Stable stalwart with 13 wins; not the force of old and contests his first classified; can't discount but likely to find one or two too good. |
7/2 |
|
6th 3 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Both wins on turf have been on ground slower than good and his last four wins have been on the AW; beat only one rival home at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago and now drops back in trip with promising amateur Henry Callan taking over in the saddle; visor back on. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Solid strike-rate on AW but not so good on turf and latest sixth of 12 at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) will need improving on; nothing wrong with this mark, though. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Placed over C&D twice in a row in July (firm) and respectable fourth at Windsor (6f, good to firm) since; this three-time course winner is high on the list. |
3/1 |
|
4th 10 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Nine wins in his 91-race career and he was beaten by two noses (by Jackie Brown and Symbol Of Hope) over 5.7f at Bath on latest start, flying at the finish having been last of nine inside the final 1f; that classified race puts him back in the picture but Bath is his most usual hunting ground and his only appearance here was in 2023. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained three of his nine wins here, two on firm ground over this trip; kept on for second (no match for winner) off his basement handicap mark over C&D (firm) at start of this month and has each-way claims again. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven wins include two at this track over 6f (good to soft/good to firm) but her last success came in October 2024; beat only one rival home on her reappearance here over 6f last month and now drops back in trip on her return to classified company. |
10/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Mudlark who starts her campaign off a lowly mark; she has a nine-month absence to overcome, however, and that hasn't been the time to catch her in previous seasons. |
14/1 |

6th 6 (8) |
14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Effectively 11lb lower than when winning on heavy ground at Windsor (5f) last October but placed on only one of her nine appearances this year and evidently not as good as she was. |

30th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
On dangerous mark and is versatile ground-wise but his last win was in 2023 and he's struggled in both runs this season; has lots to prove and he needs a big turnaround after a break. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On a workable mark and versatile regarding ground, but last month's seasonal debut (7f) was very disappointing and he needs to have taken significant benefit from that outing; blinkers refitted. |

Six-time winner but out of sorts on last three starts; needs to get back to the form she showed when winning at Lingfield (6f, good to soft) in July. |

21st Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Still a maiden after 17 starts but she's dropped a long way in the weights and was a clear second over C&D (heavy; blinkers added) 11 days ago; that was a bold bid and she looks interesting off same mark here. |
