1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His C&D win in February was achieved off a 10lb higher mark; out of sorts more recently though and others look safer. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
All nine wins over 6f including three here; 8lb below his last winning mark, but attempts this far for only the second time on his 64th start and didn't prove his stamina in the first. |

He was winning for the ninth time in his career when scoring at Kempton in February (made most); quiet on turf this summer and opposable despite a reduced mark. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Three wins in the winter, including over C&D, and he has continued to run well off his revised mark; drawn wide on turf last time and usually gives his running round here, so holds each-way claims. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Nine wins on the AW but just 1-28 on turf; fit from a productive winter campaign but he's drawn on the outside and others are more appealing. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Just one win from 22 starts but that came at Brighton (6f, good) last May and he was runner-up on AW at Lingfield last month; remains well handicapped on old form and he's in the mix back on turf. |
11/2 |

2nd 8 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Last season's campaign fizzled out but he made a fairly encouraging return in 6f Wolverhampton classified last month, keeping on steadily from the rear to finish in midfield; now 6lb lower than for last spring's win at Brighton (6f, good); a possible. |
6/1 |

6th 3 (8) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Has a chance on last season's best, notably a 6f win at Brighton (RPR 59); ended that campaign quietly though and he has a 176-day absence to overcome. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two 5f wins at Newcastle this winter and he finished third off a 2lb higher mark back there in February; disappointed behind Little Mi Mi last month; could rebound with a promising 7lb claimer booked. |
9/1 |

7th 7 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Notched his second C&D success when winning by a neck in January and he posted a solid effort when third of ten here 15 days ago; place claims again. |
8/1 |

3rd 7 (6) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Held off the late finishers to notch his second C&D win (11-2; from 3lb lower) on penultimate start; respectable effort (sixth) over 6f at Wolverhampton latest; Jack Callan's 5lb claim may aid the cause from a handicapping perspective. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Consistency not his strong suit, but he is 2-5 over C&D and latest heavy defeat excusable on account of his wide draw; capable if on a going day. |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Nine-time winner who got back on track with a narrow success over C&D (17-2) in January; drawn out wide this time but he's only 2lb higher than for that last run and could be a major force again. |

Record of 2-5 since wearing a hood (maiden previously), the wins in Class 6 events at Brighton (about 5f); has to overcome career-high mark back up in trip/grade and returned to AW. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Dual AW winner (6f/7f) but his last success was 17 months ago and he's been up and down in five runs this year; ran too freely at Lingfield last time but that was a disappointing run as favourite and he needs to bounce back again after that. |
10/1 |

8th 10 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Has modest 2-33 strike-rate but one of the wins was gained over C&D and he returns here after two fairly good fourths, the latter in first-time visor at Southwell (5f) a fortnight ago; more appealing than most. |

Poor strike-rate; ran okay at Lingfield on his penultimate start but efforts either side of it suggest he's vulnerable. |

Verdict
In-form maiden ALSHIMALI is taken to open his account and reverse C&D placings with Poetic Jack, who warrants respect all the same. Big Bard and Okami complete the shortlist.[Steve Boow]
