25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not yet a year since he almost defied 8lb higher on quick turf (1m); mixed bag since, and hard to find any benefit from a third wind operation in the winter, but he's too well treated not to bear in mind at least. |
16/1 |
|
5th 7 (5) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with two good runs but he has been well short of that level in two runs this year, a wind op before the latest making no difference; tongue tie returns; risky despite his reduced mark. |
20/1 |
|
11th 9 (8) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
First win was on turf (7f) and last two have been on Tapeta (8.6f); reached the frame in two starts at Wolverhampton in December but he had a major blip there the following month; had another wind operation since and needs a major revival after four months off. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins were in late 2022 and he has been looking regressive this year; wouldn't be the obvious answer after nearly three months off. |
8/1 |

6 (13) |
27th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last win was over C&D but that was in a novice in December 2022; very well treated on old form but he's faded in his five runs this year and was beaten 15l at Chepstow (7-2) last time; had a difficult track position in that race but he needs a big turnaround back in trip. |
9/1 |
|
12th 2 (2) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since late 2022; has dropped in the weights and his reappearance effort at Doncaster wasn't a bad run but he failed to build on it at Salisbury a fortnight ago; others appeal more. |

3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Took a while to put her head in front but having got off the mark at Wolverhampton last month (8.6f; blinkers first time), she followed up in emphatic fashion at Newcastle last week; escapes a penalty for that win and she's due to be 9lb higher in the future; obvious claims. |
15/8 |
|

26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made her breakthrough at the 13th attempt when landing a Wolverhampton handicap (8.6f; first-time blinkers) three weeks ago; up 5lb but that was a comfortable success and she's still unexposed on AW; key player. |
11/4 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
12-race maiden; regularly run well in defeat this year, going down narrowly over 1m at Thirsk three weeks ago; blinkers now replace cheekpieces; 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Five wins since December, three of them at this track (including over 1m); 3lb wrong under his penalty but he's never been in better form. |
6/1 |
|
1st 8 (6) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Four wins, including C&D, this winter and latest Chelmsford run probably not the one to judge him on; that said, he wouldn't look to have much wiggle room off his current mark. |
8/1 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won four times during the winter (7f-1m) and has gone up more than a stone in the weights, having been nudged up another 2lb for last weekend's Lingfield second; won't mind going back up in trip, though, and has a decent chance of adding to his tally. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
On a losing sequence but he took a step back in the right direction with seventh of 12 in 1m Carlisle handicap 23 days ago, fading only late on having raced wide; not out of things eased 2lb. |
13/2 |

7th 4 (10) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |

Perhaps needed the run when sixth on his return from nine months off in May; dropped 3lb and not discounted for a trainer who also runs Soames Forsyte. |

6th 3 (4) |
18th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Last win was in September 2024 but ran well on several occasions when making the frame since; last seen when a beaten favourite at Nottingham last August and may be better for the run. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Four C&D wins; attracted market support and looked an unlucky loser, hitting the line strongly after being hampered at a crucial stage over C&D (100-30 favourite, beaten a head) three weeks ago; still fairly weighted after a small upward nudge; holds an obvious chance. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 4 (10) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won four over C&D (BHA marks between 50-60) in 2024; began 2026 with a respectable third to Sea Legend, but it's been disappointing - with some mitigation - that he hasn't built on that since; stablemate of Billyjoegold. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

8th 3 (9) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Difficult to win with in recent years, now 7lb lower than when last successful at Southwell (1m) in August 2024; met trouble when sixth (beaten over 4l) here on penultimate start, but latest Leicester effort was less encouraging. |

7th 9 (7) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |

It's now 17 outings since his last success but he arrives on the back of a respectable sixth of 11 in 1m Newcastle handicap last month; easing in the weights and no forlorn hope. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |

His form went the wrong way after he made a winning reappearance at Carlisle last May but he returns having had wind surgery and the break may have helped; 2lb lower than when last successful and could be involved. |

Both turf wins have been over C&D on good to firm, the latest last August; close third to a subsequent winner at Yarmouth last time (7f, good to firm) and has a fair chance here. |

Both wins on turf have been at Doncaster (7f) on good to firm; close third of 11 at Newcastle (7f, AW) in December but ran below his best when last seen 147 days ago; break may have done him some good. |

Scored at Doncaster (7f) in August and has returned from a ten-week break in good nick, not enjoying the rub of the green when sixth of nine over C&D 39 days ago; he can make his presence felt. |

8th 7 (7) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

A dual C&D winner in 2025; yet to hit top form this season but took a step back in the right direction with fifth of nine over C&D ten days ago; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces here and not out of things. |

Three of his four wins have come over C&D and is 5lb lower than for the latest a year ago; well beaten in his last two visits, though, so has something to prove. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Three of his four wins have come over C&D (from 11 visits to Pontefract) and latest was off 3lb higher last July; he therefore cannot be comfortably dismissed despite being well held on all three starts (two here) this term. |
12/1 |
Verdict
Rwenearlytheredad ended the turf campaign on a roll and is respected in his hat-trick bid, while Mercurius Power (second choice), Adelabella, Bass Player and Bernalda also have something to recommend them. BARLEYBROWN finished behind Mercurius Power at Newcastle 12 days ago but this race may set up better for him and the handicapper may not have his measure just yet.[Paul Smith]
