Now 2lb lower than when winning a 7f handicap here on New Year's Eve; also ran well at Southwell (6f) in February but his last three runs have been underwhelming; needs a full revival. |

Won a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield on New Year's Eve; also ran well at Southwell in February but his last two efforts have been disappointing; lightly raced on turf but fully effective on fast ground; new visor needs to turn things around. |

Four-time AW winner at 7f/1m for Jennie Candlish with his last win coming at Southwell off 70 in August; not at the same level since, but the best of three runs for this yard came last time here over 5f when 3l behind the winner; into 0-60 company now and returns to winning distance. |

Triple C&D winner who took advantage of a reduced mark when coming from rear to score at Brighton (7f, good) in August; remains well treated on old form but his spark was missing at Kempton last time and he needs to step up again after that. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Nine wins on AW; scored at Bath on penultimate outing but is only 2-23 on turf and latest effort confirms that marks in the 80s are probably beyond him, at least nowadays, in this sphere. |
11/2 |

3rd 1 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf but he's capable of useful 6f form on grass and made short work of his rivals at Bath (extended 5f, good) last week; now 6lb higher but this mark isn't beyond him on past exploits; would have welcomed rain but still considered. |

Nine-time AW winner who won three in a row during the winter and was a creditable fifth in Class 3 at Lingfield (6f, Polytrack) two weeks ago; record of 1-21 on turf but he's on a lower mark in this sphere and he had a close call at Windsor last autumn; dangerous. |

No fluke about her 40-1 surprise win over C&D one year ago; finished second in a Wolverhampton novice back from a 355-day absence this month; not sure that form is especially solid though and she'll need improvement to defy the widest stall on her handicap debut. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Improver who has won three of his last seven starts including when back from a break at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) last month; up 4lb for that narrow success but he still looks feasibly treated and his first two wins were at this track; respected. |

Wins both came off a 3lb lower mark over 1m round Kempton, latterly in January; there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh, so he looks to have a bit to overcome back from three months off. |

Multiple wins include four over C&D; his losing AW run goes back two years but he's on a handy mark now and showed he can make it pay when close up at Bath (1m) recently after getting checked in his run; blinkers return and Oisin Murphy rides for the first time; can be involved. |

Struggled on turf on two of his last three starts (ran well over 6f here in between) but that hasn't done his mark any harm; a strongly run race at this trip would suit; likely to go well. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Had a productive time on AW over the winter and he's held his form well enough; the only real blip since November came when disappointing at Windsor on his penultimate start which now raises doubts back on turf. |

1st Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

His form dipped on turf three weeks ago but he was in fine form on AW over the winter, winning twice at Lingfield and going close over C&D last month; perhaps a shade high in the weights for a race as competitive as this one. |

0-15; third of seven over C&D on his penultimate start; has dropped 11lb this calendar year and has a chance from this mark on several pieces of form in that period; below par at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) latest; jockey has been in the first four in 22-31 rides for this trainer (five seasons). |

21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

0-13; down the field at Lingfield (7f, good) 17 days ago but he now returns to AW off a mark 8lb lower than when second of eight here over 7f in October; stamina for this far is a question mark but his pedigree suggests it's worth exploring (dam 1m2f/15.5f winner). |

Four wins include one over C&D (good) in May 2024; hasn't scored since August of that year but he's now 20lb lower and latest fourth of 13 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) was a solid effort despite hanging; should enhance creditable Brighton form figures of 21424. |

0-30 on AW but he's won four times on turf (7f); struggled during the winter but he returned to this scene with a respectable effort at Yarmouth (6f, good) last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this step back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |
