3rd Jan 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Ran as though something was amiss four weeks ago but is accustomed to stronger races than this and is now 3lb lower than when placed for Joe Bradnam at Kempton (1m3f) in September; player if back on song. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Narrow C&D winner (Class 4; 12-1) in November and, broadly speaking, has acquitted himself respectably since; stamina was likely overstretched at Wolverhampton (1m4f) latest; it's interesting that Jack Callan (1-1) returns to the saddle from just 1lb above that winning mark. |

8th 3 (6) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
1m2f and 1m4f AW winner, including on Tapeta; backed up November's Newcastle success with a respectable third at Lingfield last month; was below that level at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) latest; drops 1lb and can be competitive if he acts at this track. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 109y |
11st 12lb |
Four wins in Britain, best on AW; reached a peak rating of 85 after two Kempton wins last year; not at his best in recent months; however, he is race-fit and the bar is set low for his hurdles debut; interesting. |
4/1 |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
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. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Formerly trained by Andrew Balding and Nicky Henderson; sole Flat win came over 1m2f in 2023 but she has since won five times over hurdles; ran creditably over 2m at Lingfield at the start of the year before being sold for £6,000 in May; worth a check in the market. |
22/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
In good form when last seen on the Flat, going down narrowly over 1m3f at Southwell last March, and successful three times over hurdles since; however, she ran poorly in that sphere in November and has stamina to prove on her return to the AW. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
2-4 for new stable, winning at Goodwood (1m4f, good; cheekpieces first time) before getting the better Epictetus over C&D last month; came unstuck at York in his hat-trick bid and this looks a competitive race in which to get back on track. |

8th 8 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Represents a new trainer in excellent form and has won at Goodwood (1m4f, good) and Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) on his last two outings, proving himself better than ever; edging up the weights only gradually and in the mix again. |
10/1 |

1st 4 (8) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Did well on AW last winter and even better form when the cheekpieces replaced a visor at Goodwood (1m4f, good) four weeks ago, leading over 1f out to score with rather more authority than the half-length winning margin suggests; used to act on good to firm; up 3lb but firmly in the picture. |

Back to some form over 1m4f on turf on last two starts; 0-11 on AW, however, with two places but they were on Polytrack. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Struggled over 1m at Southwell last month but relished the step back up in trip when winning at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; still fairly treated on his old form off this 3lb higher mark and has claims. |
100/30 |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
1m2f win here (good to firm) kicked off a four-timer in 2023 for Tony Carroll but he took a while to rediscover his level before scoring at Chepstow (1m4f, good; first-time blinkers) for this yard one year ago; raced mainly over further without success since and latest start over 1m can be written off; handy mark and he's not discounted on just his second visit to Brighton. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |

Last three runs have been over 1m2f at Newbury and was bang there on each occasion; still on a good mark and has won over this far; seems fine on most surfaces. |

2nd 1 (2) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

He had been threatening prior to his C&D win in an amateur riders' race three weeks ago; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

2nd Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well beaten twice in a row over hurdles this spring and only fifth of seven when back on the Flat at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) a fortnight ago; however, he won over C&D last August on his sole previous course visit and is well treated on AW form as recent as February; not written off. |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner (from four runs), latterly off a 1lb lower mark last autumn; said to have stopped quickly when well beaten at a short price over hurdles last month, which leaves him a bit to prove, but he has one of the more experienced jockeys up. |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
In good order here when last seen at the beginning of the year, winning over 1m4f in January before being beaten a head over today's distance the following month; holds claims if ready to roll after a break. |
2/1 |

2nd 10 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has a patchy profile but he justified support when bouncing back with a strong-finishing win here (1m4f) last month; up 4lb but that was a cosy success and the form has been boosted by the runner-up since; interesting contender. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (1) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 1m novice at Kempton in September 2023 but 0-10 in handicaps since; did catch the eye when third at Kempton (1m3f) back on AW in November but hasn't built on it twice since, finishing remote third at Chelmsford (1m6f) latterly; the return to 1m4f may help but others are more convincing. |
12/1 |
