31st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
4lb lower than when winning at Wolverhampton last November; 2025 has been a struggle but he's eligible for this lowly level as a result and today is the first time he hasn't been apprentice-ridden in over two years; risky but not impossible. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Decent record over C&D (13022; all in 2023) but has become very hard to predict; given a seven-week break since a poor effort at Chepstow and others are more reliable. |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded the 18th win of his long career when leading late over C&D in February (for Myla Coppins); ran well behind a thriving rival at Lingfield next time but he failed to fire over C&D a fortnight ago (finished behind Coloane); he has bounced back from quiet runs before so can't be ruled out. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
18th success of his long career when getting the better of Antiquity (winner since and runs in the 6.00) over C&D last month; bumped into an in-form opponent at Lingfield two weeks ago (7f; blinkered first time); another 2lb rise is not ideal but he is likely to give his running. |
5/1 |

2nd 2 (4) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of enthusiasm and ran on well to beat a subsequent winner (Age Of Time third) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) three weeks ago, his 18th success; a 2lb rise not excessive but late in the day to be giving blinkers a go (has run well in new headgear before). |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time C&D winner, latterly off 4lb higher in February; fine on Polytrack but the return here is an obvious plus off a career-low mark and he's another with claims in an open handicap. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with a win at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in December; has had some ups and downs since but he came from off the pace to finish a creditable third at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) two weeks ago; now 3lb lower than for his last success and has claims if he can build on that last run. |
7/2 |

3rd 6 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Ended 2025 with victory at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in December and largely in good nick this term, a close fifth in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap two weeks ago; not ruled out off a 2lb lower mark. |

16th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
All four wins have been at this track; his last success was 14 months ago but he's run plenty of good races since including when runner-up here (8.6f) 13 days ago; didn't get a smooth run in that race and has possibilities if he gets a good pace back at this trip. |

9st 3lb |
All four wins have come over 8.6f/9.5f here and now 7lb lower than when twice runner-up over 7f at this venue last October; his last four efforts raise serious doubts over his ability to capitalise, though. |

7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Gained his fourth win at his track when coming from off the pace to win by a neck here in January; kept on into fifth behind Avatar Jet over C&D 12 days ago and has each-way claims if this is run to suit. |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time course winner, all in the winter months, latterly off this mark in January; usually misses the break and again hung left when behind Marry The Night over C&D last time; a stronger pace would help for last year's winning yard. |

5yo who was in top form on AW in the spring, with a win at Kempton (1m) being sandwiched by two seconds; showed some promise in May 2024 when he last raced on turf; key player if transferring good form back to grass. |
