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. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
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. |
8/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Regressive gelding who's often been inclined to pull hard since returning from a year off; winless since his 3yo days and there are safer options. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Overall record of 2-30 but this 7yo has been in good form recently and he was only just caught over C&D last time; only 1lb higher and she should make another bold bid. |

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. |

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. |

9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the 20th attempt when battling well to justify support at Musselburgh (7f, good) two weeks ago; up 4lb but he beat a clear second last time and his confidence could be boosted after that success; big player again with cheekpieces added. |
5/1 |

1st 8 (11) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Out the back on first four outings for Lawrence Mullaney but big step back in the right direction when second in 7f Southwell classified event seven weeks ago, pulling clear with one who has won and finished a close second in two handicap starts since; his last 11 outings have been on AW but was runner-up over C&D (good) in August 2024; bold show likely if a wide stall isn't too much of an inconvenience. |
3/1 |

2nd 12 (7) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

A case can be made on 2025 best, including a C&D second last March, but he has finished out the back in four runs for new trainer this winter. |
