8st 4lb |
Often slowly away; last won in February 2025, with 14 races since; eight of nine wins were on AW, but easily best turf form came on last two starts (minor honours over 1m2f at Redcar) which gives hope; 2lb out of handicap. |

8st 5lb |
Beaten on his last 13 starts going back to last February and eight of his nine wins have come on AW; can be slowly away but that didn't stop him finishing second over C&D (good to firm) last Monday when back up in trip; has the same mark today and could well be in the mix once more. |

Two wins on AW during the summer and she returned to form with a close call over C&D two weeks ago; nudged up 2lb but she was as good as ever last time and is strongly respected with cheekpieces added. |

Both wins have come on AW, latest at Lingfield (1m2f) in July off 4lb lower mark; ran well subsequently when second at Chelmsford and Lingfield and has excuses for her last two defeats (race may have come too soon; ground); should go close. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring at Wolverhampton (9.4f; first-time cheekpieces) last month and he followed up with a dominant display on his return visit two weeks later; 7lb higher here but he remains well handicapped on his old form including a win over C&D; key player. |

1st 4 (4) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Caught the eye on penultimate start; justified market support over C&D subsequently (in newly applied cheekpieces), that his first win since September 2023; a 4lb rise looks fair, so he's entitled to be on the premises assuming the headgear continues to have the desired effect. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

No win since September 2023 (1m, Kempton; from 9lb higher); caught the eye making late headway (sixth; 16-1) over 8.5f here seven weeks ago; interesting to see if added cheekpieces can instigate a revival; market helpful. |

Winless in his first 25 starts, but in good form since the blinkers went on in June (4321133); both wins came over 1m1f on turf in August, but he finished well for a creditable third over C&D last time; interesting contender on this drop back in grade. |

28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

His last five wins have come at Newcastle, but he hasn't been at his best there in last three starts; went close off this mark in November but he needs to get back near that level; all AW wins have been at 1m2f but he has won over this trip on turf. |

7-47 on AW but has struggled for form since finishing third at Newcastle (1m, Class 5; from 12lb higher) last November; failed to beat a rival in each of his last two starts (9.4f/1m4f) so it's difficult to have confidence. |

All six wins have been on Tapeta, including three over C&D; well treated on his best form last year and he went close off this mark over C&D (Rubellite third) last Thursday; that was his second run after a break and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |

Three C&D wins to his name; should be sharper for his recent return to action and he'll appreciate both dropping into Class 6 and returning to a longer trip; one to consider. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

2lb below last winning mark and although not seen in six months, has won after a similar absence; has run well in all four starts over C&D, but all six wins have come over 1m4f (three here) so he wouldn't want a dawdle over this trip. |

0-10 here but scored at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) in February; campaigned over shorter since March and won again at that venue (8.5f) in June; case to be made now he's back on that winning mark. |

Retains a fair chunk of ability aged nine but all of his 2025 AW form is at Wolverhampton, winning twice; not sure quite what to expect back elsewhere. |
