16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Has nine wins, including one over 6f here in January; best effort since when fourth of eight at Leicester (7f) when last seen in August; fairly treated if fully primed after a short break. |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has nine wins, including two over C&D; hasn't shown much on his last three starts, over 6f; cheekpieces worn last time are left off and return to 7f in his favour so not out of this. |

Two of his five turf wins have come at this track, albeit over 7f; successful off today's mark (and for this rider) at Southwell in January; struggled in two runs back from a three-month break in the spring but grounds for expecting better today. |

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). |

31st Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

0-13 but he's shown the odd bit of promise here over 7f this winter; inexperienced rider on board and his maiden status looks set to remain intact. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
C&D winner who is without success in over four years; went close over C&D in March when 3lb higher but needs to bounce back after being well beaten (6f, good to soft; first-time blinkers) at Chepstow latest. |

Two wins at 7f on AW and he went close on that surface at Wolverhampton (7f) in March; below that form on last two starts and has something to prove back at 6f on this forecast easy turf; blinkers go on. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Veteran who scored over C&D in October, but she's not easy to predict and was 6l behind Nordic Glory here ten days ago; needs to bounce back again after that disappointing run and others are more persuasive. |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Regained the winning thread in C&D event in November and has made the frame in both starts since, latest at Kempton; this in-form veteran can't be dismissed. |

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. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Has been revitalised since joining this yard with form figures of 23121; latest win came in this headgear combination at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) last Wednesday; drop back to 7f is no problem and she's a leading candidate under the penalty. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Highly competitive with James Owen for last four starts, notably when running away with a Brighton handicap (7f, good to firm) eight days ago; creditable second there yesterday with a hood added; had 1m form last season; highly respected if she's brought out quickly again. |

2nd 2 (9) |

Has been running well since joining this yard and recorded her first turf win over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday with Dion Baker (has won since) two places back; shoulders a 5lb penalty but may have more to give. |

2-4 since returned to turf in April, the latter win gained at Catterick (7f, good for firm) three weeks ago; effectively 6lb higher here if Conor Whiteley's reduced claim is considered but ought to go well again. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

Backed when winning over 7f here in April (good) and first-time cheekpieces perhaps backfired at Doncaster; those aids are now left off but has stamina to prove over this far. |
