11th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Has claims on a narrow C&D win in November and a close second at Lingfield in December, but he finished behind several of these when only eighth of 11 at Wolverhampton (100-30 favourite) on Boxing Day; needs to bounce back. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
8yo who has been in fine form this spring, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) last month then going close at Lingfield (1m, AW) and Nottingham (1m, good); there's every chance he'll be bang there once more. |
9/1 |

2nd 2 (7) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ten-time winner split between turf and AW; his last success was at Kempton (1m) last month and he backed that up with a close third under a penalty at Lingfield (Polytrack); did well to hang in there from a wide draw last time and he's respected off same mark back on turf. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 (10) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Tended to do his winning in the past in batches, which bodes well under a 4lb penalty for last Monday's Kempton victory; well over two years snice he won off a mark this high and hasn't been at his best in two previous runs here but needs considering. |

7th Apr 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made a successful reappearance at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) a year ago when trained by Richard Spencer, but below form in his last three starts and now makes his debut for a new yard in a first-time tongue-tie; market useful. |

28th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Returned from six months off to win a C&D handicap last April off 5lb lower; ran well on his next three AW starts but his form has dipped the last twice; new visor replaces blinkers; dangerous if left alone up front. |

18th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Promising 2yo at 7f, winning on debut for Kevin Ryan and later close up in a Newmarket handicap; well held over that trip and 1m in 2024 though, and still has to prove stamina for this far; enough to prove at this stage for new yard. |

31st Jul 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Both AW wins came here, including over C&D in 2023, but form tailed off sharply at the end of last year, after which he had wind surgery; not much to shout about in four runs this term and he's developed a habit of starting slowly; others preferred. |
33/1 |

8th 7 (1) |
3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Formerly quite useful but he was ending a losing run when dead-heating at Wolverhampton (9.4f; best AW form on that track) in November and he hasn't recaptured last year's best efforts in three runs this time round. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (6) |
19th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Regressed last year, mainly over shorter, and seems happier on Tapeta; well held in two runs back from wind surgery and the cheekpieces come off again as he steps back up from 7f. |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |

Three-time winner on AW but unplaced in all seven turf runs, the latest of which was over C&D last month; not a solid option. |
14/1 |
|
8th 10 (8) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Well treated on this year's AW form; however, she has an up-and-down profile and has a lower turf mark for good reason on previous evidence. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
All three wins (7f-9.4f) have been on Tapeta and the latest was at this track last month; has faded in her last two runs but she wasn't beaten far here last time and is now back on her last winning mark; not ruled out. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
11-time AW winner but he's been out of sorts for new yard since December and was last of eight over C&D last time; mark is tumbling but he has lots to prove and needs a major revival. |
66/1 |
|
8th 6 (8) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All 11 wins on the AW, including one over C&D, though his latest success for the Moores was in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta) in October; out of the frame in all four starts for this yard since then and may be best watched despite his declining mark. |
12/1 |
|
10th 4 (9) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Prolific winner down the years; not fired in three runs for Chelsea Banham this winter; betting likely to guide if a revival is on the cards. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Outsider of four when belatedly doubling his tally at Southwell last April (1m3f); hit the frame last two starts (1m2f) but not sure dropping back to 1m will see him play a bigger role this evening; Penfolds Grange looks connections' best hope. |
20/1 |

4th 10 (9) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
On a losing run and he's yet to hit top form this season, going keenly when a fading fourth of 11 over C&D in February; needs to take a step forward. |
