28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
The oldest contender and a familiar face, having taken part in this race for the last four years (form figures read 6529); beat all bar Eldrickjones over C&D last month but the return to this better grade presents a tougher task. |

Four-time C&D winner, including this race in 2021; second in it last year; has continued in good form in the main since winning over C&D last November (didn't run badly at Doncaster latest) and is on the shortlist now back here. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Ties in with Golden Mind on Musselburgh running but the pair of them are facing a stiffer assignment in this major prize; remains useful on turf but a lower mark in this sphere reflects that his peak form, namely dual Listed honours, has been shown on AW. |

4th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Made his name on AW but he can do it on turf when the ground is quick, as when a cosy winner at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) in August; has since added a second Listed AW event, at Southwell in November, but the Saudi Arabia venture came to nothing in February and he has ground worries today. |

Switched to front-running the last twice, winning a novice event at Wolverhampton (easy task) then disappointing in C&D handicap; widest draw is not ideal if same tactics are attempted. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Won a Class 4 over C&D in September; unplaced in three runs this year, the latest here last week, and this looks a tough race in which to try to rebound. |
40/1 |
|
9th 1 (11) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

All three wins over C&D, the latest in September; failed to build on his quite promising reappearance when well beaten at Southwell five weeks ago but capable of staging a revival back at Newcastle. |
10/1 |

Unraced here but goes particularly well at Newcastle (all three wins there at 1m) where he shaped nicely after a break in a Class 2 last month; this mark isn't beyond him. |

1st 4 (2) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Not the most consistent but still capable on his day, as when winning a 6f handicap at Newcastle in December (2lb higher today); handy draw and no surprise to see him show up well. |
14/1 |

7th 6 (2) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Sole win from 18 starts on the AW came at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December and bounced back to form when runner-up there ten days ago; makes each-way appeal returned to 7f off a 2lb lower mark (4lb well in). |

Came from off the pace to win a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in fine style in December; beaten twice since but she hasn't run badly; fully exposed but a strong pace would enhance her claims. |

5th 7 (5) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Six-time AW winner but has high mileage and is more exposed than most of today's rivals; gained her most recent success (penultimate start) in Class 5 and faces a stiffer task at this level. |

4th 4 (12) |

9st 12lb |
Veteran who dipped into a seller for his latest win, at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in July; current handicap mark is workable but his AW strike-rate is 0-13 and he needs to rebound from two down-the-field runs. |

9st 1lb |
Notched two wins over this trip at Catterick last October and he has returned in fine form, making much of the running when a close third over C&D (good ground) last month; solid claims again from an unchanged mark. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won a pair of 7f handicaps at Catterick last October; returned from a 142-day absence with a fine third at Newcastle three weeks ago, doing best of the smaller stands' side group; runs off the same mark today and should make another bold bid. |
6/1 |

3rd 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ended a long losing run with back-to-back wins from the front over 7f at Catterick last October; found out in a higher grade at Musselburgh on final start; fifth is the best he's managed in four AW starts (all here) and it's likely best to look elsewhere on reappearance. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Record of 122 over 7f on AW once fitted with a visor; however, despite turf achievements early in career, his return to turf at Doncaster (7f, good to soft; second favourite) in March bore no comparison. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Record of 122, all over 7f on AW, since wearing visor; most recently bumped into thriving rival who was on the second leg of a four-timer; dual winner on turf; solid claims in the retained headgear. |

2nd 4 (4) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Reinvigorated by a visor, winning a C&D handicap (beat Bobby Joe Leg) early last month before a close second at Southwell two weeks ago (Goldmoyne third); up another 2lb today but he threatened to be useful in his youth and should have another big run in him. |
