30th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
A regular on the AW here (three wins) who's much higher in the weights than when last seen frequently on turf; generally consistent but whether he's up to this mark on grass is the leading question, and Quamby looks his trainer's best chance. |
25/1 |

13th 14 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time winner over 1m/1m2f here and just 1lb higher than when beating a dual subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in January, but he has the outside stall and will require some luck given his come-from-behind style. |

Good run on AW last time; hard to win with (2-41); looks held by Methgal on Leopardstown running before more recent third behind another of today's rivals, Comfort Line. |

Gained just second win from 39 starts when springing 50-1 shock in 7f course claimer in December; creditable efforts in two handicaps here since for new yard; below best on softish ground at Leopardstown eight days ago but player back on this surface. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Five-time turf winner who went close at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in February when last seen; not discounted but it's possible this 8yo will improve for this first run since; question mark about slow ground nowadays. |

17th Feb 2026 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Conditions shouldn't be an excuse and this trip is more suitable than the 1m he tackled at Newcastle last month; however, he finished down the field when back up to 1m4f here last night. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Scored at Carlisle (1m) last May but her more recent form is much less encouraging, beating just one in 1m2f Redcar handicap eight days ago; this C&D scorer needs to take a major step forward. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Both AW wins have been at Newcastle (1m/1m2f) but her last success was 11 months ago and she's been out of sorts in two runs this spring; down the list. |

Currently 1-33 and the fact he's been beaten at 7-2 or shorter ten times tells its own story; will again be popular under Rossa Ryan after a solid second to Arlecchino's Rex in a C&D handicap a fortnight ago though. |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four wins in 2024, one of them here (8.3f, good to soft); not at his best at Musselburgh 11 days ago but he's slipped to a good mark and this is uncompetitive; solid candidate. |
3/1 |

10th 5 (3) |
7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has finished close up when fourth/fifth the last twice (8.3f/1m2f, good to firm) and he was on the scoresheet here (1m1f, good) last July; won on good to soft ground ten days later; every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

Winner at Wetherby in April 2025 (7f, good to firm) and some fair runs since; hasn't been in much form on the AW this year and perhaps best watched for now. |

7th 13 (7) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Triple C&D winner but he's finished in rear in his last three runs and and his last win was 12 months ago; one of three runners for the yard and he needs to turn things around. |

8th 4 (2) |

A three-time C&D scorer but he arrives out of sorts, beating only one in classified event over C&D 40 days ago; he needs this change of headgear to spark a resurgence. |

20th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seemed to benefit from the application of a tongue-tie when running creditably to finish fourth in his last two starts for Archie Watson early last year, but having been off for 675 days he was tailed off on stable debut at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) four weeks ago; hard to fancy. |

Races prominently; has won here (1m2f, soft) and was in good form over 1m at Newcastle late last year before an off-day at Wolverhampton; could well need this on his first sighting since Christmas. |
