4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
10-32 on the AW and as tough as old boots, going down by less than a length in his last three outings including when beaten a short head over C&D in March; likely to be bang there once again. |
13/2 |

2nd 6 (7) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
C&D record is currently three wins and two seconds from five starts; most of his career wins have come in the winter but he continues in good form and has strong claims. |
3/1 |

3rd 6 (8) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
All of his ten wins have been on AW and he had a near-miss over 1m3f at Kempton last Wednesday; on same mark here and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |

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. |
11/4 |

3rd 8 (6) |
25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
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). |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Hard to recommend on recent efforts, but has dropped 7lb lower than when gaining his second C&D success back in February; worth a second look with a visor given a try, especially if attracting support. |
9/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in February but he's not fired in three starts since July and seems out of sorts at present; only of interest with market support. |
25/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
This year's win was on Polytrack at Kempton (1m4f) in February and he's 2lb lower today, having gone off the boil in his two runs this summer; has never won beyond 1m4f and he last ran on ground softer than good in 2021. |

Well backed when winning here on the AW over 1m4f in December but never featured when beating only one rival home 19 days ago; 0-9 on turf and others are preferred. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Well backed when winning over C&D in December off a 2lb lower mark (ridden by Myla Coppins); the odd solid effort since and he can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |

Not the most consistent, but has won six times on the AW including five over 1m4f/1m5f at Lingfield; has run well here, but stall 13 isn't ideal even over this trip. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Dual winner (11.5f and 1m2f) who was placed in a couple of 1m2f handicaps here in 2024; the wheels have come off subsequently, however, and three starts this year promised little. |
25/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Finished last in two runs back having missed a little over a year; handicapper proving slow to relent and first-time headgear will need to make a difference. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Won twice on fast ground in the summer of 2024, including at this track (extended 1m3f); she hasn't stood much racing since, seen just four times since September 2024, and there are major question marks over how much of that old ability she retains. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |

Formerly effective on AW but has produced best results for current stable on turf; regressive form since returned to AW started with a modest third over C&D (sole 2m attempt). |
25/1 |
Verdict
The four last-time-out winners should ensure that this is competitive and it’s not clear who will make the running, which may also contribute to a tight scrap. TORTURED SOUL gets a narrow vote and Tony Carroll’s other runner Upepo should not go down without a fight, while Alfheim (second choice) has been on the charge at Wolverhampton for her new yard and Khangai is another in-form candidate.[Richard Austen]
