25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
7yo who is lightly raced for his age and made it 6-12 on AW when winning a competitive C&D handicap over Easter; failed to get heavily involved back on turf at the York Dante meeting since but has to enter calculations now back on AW. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
7yo who is lightly raced for his age and made it 6-12 on AW when winning a competitive 1m2f handicap at Newcastle last month; achieved very little on turf at the start of his career but he's a different model now and he could be in the shake-up if the return to grass isn't an issue. |

Five AW wins between July 2024 and February 2025, including here; however, he hasn't been at the top of his game on his three starts since November, which puts him down the pecking order today. |

9st 11lb |
Three wins in 2025, the last two over this trip at Kempton; yet to match that form after three starts this year, though, and didn't find that much after travelling well at Kempton (1m3f) on Monday. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |

Not fired in two starts on turf since returning last month but he won twice over C&D last autumn and is just 1lb higher than for his latest success; worth a second look. |
12/1 |

8th 1 (7) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner who completed a Kempton double (1m3f, AW) in October but he's been well held in two starts since; may have needed his reappearance run at Chepstow last month but that took his turf record to 1-13 and others are preferred. |

0-17 on AW but he returned to form with a staying-on third here (1m6f) last month; now drops back in trip but he's 1lb lower than last time and has possibilities if this sets up for his closing style; visor reapplied. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won this 12 months ago and returns on a hat-trick after another course win (made all) and a success at Salisbury that looked unlikely until he picked up late on; might travel sweeter back at this track and can cope with this mark. |
3/1 |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Returned from three-month break with front-running win at Brighton (1m4f, good) in May and will be fine on the faster surface here but he's probably not quite as good as he was; younger rivals appeal more. |

30th May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |

Ordinary form on the AW during the winter but he is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last August; off since February but he's respected back here on this return. |

10st 13lb |
Three-time flat winner showed a little bit more over timber at Tramore (16.5f, good) last time but was still beaten 7.5l into eighth; down 2lb but needs to improve again to be competitive here. |

17th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 140y |

Three-time Flat winner (twice in France, once in Britain) at up to 1m4f; has shown little over hurdles, but can be forgiven his recent run at Cork, failed to recover after being badly hampered four out; may do better. |

26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Both wins at this track, the latest a C&D defeat of Sun Dancer Girl in January; solid placed efforts on his last two starts and he has the assistance of a top amateur jockey; big player. |

3rd 8 (6) |
25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Most runs and both wins have been on the AW but has comparable turf form, including a second over C&D in 2022; needs respecting after a near miss at Kempton (2m). |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Multiple Flat wins at 1m-1m4f, including on heavy; unable to make a significant impact on the Flat last autumn but he's run with credit over hurdles in recent months and is well treated back on the level (6lb below his last winning mark); considered. |
10/1 |

2nd 4 |
9th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Multiple Flat wins at 1m-1m4f, including on heavy; switched to hurdling late in the day but he's taken surprisingly well to this game, running two good races at Leicester (extended 1m7f; soft and heavy), and may well improve for this easier stamina test now handicapping; thereabouts. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 11 |
20th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 113y Class 4 |

8-46 on the Flat; left it rather late in the day to launch his hurdling career but went down fighting over C&D (soft) just after Christmas and has a good chance if in similar form again. |

18th Dec 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Showed promise in novice/maiden events (1m2f/1m4f) this year but he struggled switched to a handicap at Lingfield (2m, AW) two weeks ago and that was after a non-completion on his hurdling debut; still unexposed and now drops back in trip but he has some questions to answer. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Veteran who's done a lot of his winning in the summer and always liked it round here; back in form over hurdles last time and is 2lb lower than when going in here last July, so he needs a second look. |
7/1 |
|
1st 8 |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Not the easiest to predict and well held on both starts on the AW since finishing a good second over hurdles at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) in March, ridden by Harry Atkins who can claim his 5lb allowance here; will not mind any rain and not out of this if in the mood, with one of his two hurdling wins coming over C&D. |
