27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won two of his last five starts (with and without headgear), scrambling home at Leicester (1m, good to firm) 18 days ago; a 2lb rise not excessive and he has a good strike-rate for one of his rating; chance. |

Back to winning ways at Lingfield (1m) in February but his more recent form is not so encouraging, tenth in 1m Doncaster handicap two weeks ago; needs to take a step forward. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
All 24 of his races have been on AW (won three of them) but he's finished down the field in two starts this summer, including over C&D 34 days ago; bit to prove. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Below par at Chelmsford last month but that was his first outing since finishing third over C&D in January and he could strip fitter now. |

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. |
16/1 |

5th 6 (6) |
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. |
10/1 |

5th 5 (5) |
5th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

9st 3lb |
Won here over 7f in February either side of wins over this trip at Kempton; encountered a wide trip when down the field in a higher grade than this last time and he may well be able to bounce back. |
8/1 |

8th 11 (8) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Arrives seeking a four-timer, two of the wins over C&D, and he hasn't been treated punitively by the assessor having gone up just 6lb; this is a much stiffer test of his credentials but there are no doubts surrounding his wellbeing. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Has started 2026 with wins over C&D and in a small field at Wolverhampton (7f); only 1lb higher on the hat-trick bid but this is more competitive and he's drawn widest. |

Registered his most recent win off just 1lb lower over 1m4f here in February but hasn't shown enough in two runs back from a break to suggest his turn is near. |

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 |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Five-time 7f winner here (well suited by a good test over that trip) who's currently 0-17 over C&D; patchy since a win here off 1lb lower in February and others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
18th 1 (22) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Still on a realistic mark and several good AW runs to his name already this year; 0-13 on turf and 0-31 at 1m+ so he will need to break new ground to come out on top today; Simon Walker booked but others might be seeing it out more strongly. |
10/1 |
|
5th 11 (1) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Dual course winner (1m/7f) this year, following a layoff; managed only sixth when favourite here (1m) 11 days ago but has a big role to play from the inside stall if quickly back in the groove. |

Five-time AW winner but 0-22 on turf; ran poorly behind Penny Ghent at Ripon ten days ago and others have more obvious claims. |

|
13th 12 (12) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

All five wins over 7f on AW; 0-21 on turf and doesn't appeal for win purposes despite career-low mark. |

4th 9 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Billy Garritty gets on well with him (form figures together read 421125) and the likes of Kessaar Power should ensure this is truly run, which will suit this hold-up performer; he does seem more effective over 7f, though. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won two in a row over C&D (good) in May/June; merely mid-division over 1m2f the next twice, here then at York, but the drop back down in trip and return to Ripon could both be positives and he's not ruled out. |
9/1 |

9th 17 (14) |
28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has form over 1m2f but was below par (behind Westernesse) returned to this trip last week when bidding for a Ripon hat-trick; still seeking first success beyond 1m. |
20/1 |
|
5 (8) |
19th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Bids for a hat-trick after back-to-back 1m handicap wins here recently; up 3lb but he's effective at this longer trip and not taken lightly in his current mood. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
All 27 runs have been on AW; back-to-back wins at Southwell (1m) last October but he's been up and down since and was beaten 12l at Southwell two weeks ago; now makes his belated turf debut and comes with risks attached. |
16/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back-to-back C&D wins last October (off 3lb lower than today, then 3lb higher than today); should appreciate returning to 1m having produced a lesser effort over 7f here last time; can be involved. |
11/2 |
|
8th 1 (7) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Scored twice over 1m here in 2025 and back to form of late, posting a good third of 11 in 1m handicap here three weeks ago; he's well in the mix eased 1lb. |
