20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran who showed his best form for a while when winning at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in February; below his best on turf at Goodwood 19 days ago but cannot be overlooked back on AW. |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Kickstarted 2026 with all-the-way 6f Wolverhampton win in February; up 2lb but this veteran C&D winner can't be discounted after a break. |

Four wins in 2025, including over C&D and off this mark; made a pleasing return from 142 days off when fourth over C&D five weeks ago; can take a step forward today. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed signs of a revival when fourth in a handicap at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) and a slow start was no help at Chester (stays 7f); only 2-35 but he's not without a chance. |
5/1 |

7th 10 (8) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 but he's on a reduced mark and showed signs of a revival when fourth at Thirsk (6f, good; 11-1) last month; has possibilities if he can build on that and he's effective at this trip. |
12/1 |

4th 10 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 (Newcastle); weakened quickly on turf return at Doncaster (7f) three weeks ago; the only real glimpse of life this year was when a never-nearer fourth at Southwell (5f; 25-1) in February; stablemate of East Tyrone. |

13th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Two 6f AW wins for previous yard last winter but it hasn't been easy since winning for this one at Newmarket in August and, after getting closer at Wolverhampton last month, things never went his way from a wide draw at Southwell; needs more weight off his back. |
20/1 |

24th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Slipped in the weights and back to form in refitted blinkers at Wolverhampton last time; drawn on the outside this time, though, so has to show that can be backed up. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
His last win was 15 months ago but he made a bold when a close third off a reduced mark over C&D (good to firm) last time; responded well to first-time cheekpieces in that race and has claims if the headgear works again. |
15/2 |

3rd 7 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won on the other course here (6f, good to firm) last May but he's been up and down since and has been out of sorts in his last two starts; now 8lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival with cheekpieces added. |
12/1 |

10th 2 (11) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Merely mid-division at Newmarket (6f, good) three weeks ago but prior to that he took a step back in the right direction when third on the Rowley Mile there (6f, good) and his stable is in fine form; not discounted. |

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

Seven-time AW winner and his last success was over C&D last October; should be on a perfectly good mark but hasn't been in the best of form. |
12/1 |
|
7th 2 (10) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-time AW winner and his last success was over 6f here last October; now 2lb lower than for that win but has a mixed record since and was never involved at Wolverhampton last Monday; comes with risks attached and he needs to raise his game back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |
9/1 |

5th 9 (9) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch in 2024 when winning six times; landed his third win over C&D last August off this mark; handicapper has given him a chance after two defeats last month; should run well. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Likeably consistent this season and last week's fifth at Chester was no backward step, as he was close up despite being dropped in from a bad draw; usually ridden handier; never won off a mark this high but respected; goes on all ground. |
4/1 |
|
5th 14 (11) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Series of good runs this year, most recently a dominant success at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) ten days ago; that wasn't far off his very best and he's one to consider up 4lb. |
8/1 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won a Class 5 over C&D (soft) in June and followed that with three runner-up finishes; beaten favourite at Goodwood a fortnight ago but he was racing away from the main action and shaped as though still in top form; Oisin Murphy retains the ride; solid claims. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time AW winner, most recently at Lingfield (6f) in January off the same mark as today's; left the impression he's still in form on soft ground at Salisbury 23 days ago and has place claims back on the AW. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (11) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All four wins have been on the AW but he does act on turf; beaten 4l when second of five at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) ten days ago but soft ground would be a slight concern. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |
5/1 |
