10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Had a rare off day in the Dash at Epsom but quickly back on track with a close third at Windsor (5f good to firm) 18 days ago; unlikely to be far away off the same mark. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Poor effort at Epsom, behind two of these, last time will need forgiving but he boasts a fair record for Billy Loughnane (won for him last summer off 6lb higher); handicapper given him a chance and it wouldn't be a shock were he to pop up. |

Admirable campaigner who is gradually edging down the weights; type to pop up soon but perhaps in a slightly less competitive affair. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Front-runner who's drawn to attack and boasts a solid record over C&D; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark, though, for a yard also responsible for Ziggy's Missile. |
8/1 |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who was found an ordinary Yarmouth handicap when winning easily in the spring; handicapper had his say for that and he finished well beaten behind Dream Composer upped in class at Epsom last time; yard also runs Rhythm N Hooves. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Better on AW than turf but took advantage of a good opportunity at Yarmouth in April (5f, good); hit with an 8lb rise for that, bringing his turf and AW marks into line; blew the start back at Yarmouth last month but the stewards deemed him a non-runner due to having his head turned as the stalls opened; risky on the back of that and there are other pace influences to contend with today. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Finally ended a 49-race losing run at Southwell (5f, AW) in January; now 2lb lower than for that success and this company is much easier than that he normally keeps, but his record of 1-47 on turf still makes him hard to warm to. |

5th 13 (9) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and posted a respectable effort at Newmarket (5f, good) last month; however, he was down the field at Ascot (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago and is now just 1-46 on turf; others preferred. |
20/1 |

14th 15 (16) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and he is just 1lb higher today; solid effort at Newmarket 17 days ago when not ideally positioned; each-way claims at a track where he has run well in much better races than this one. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Prominent racer; on a good mark and his latest Hamilton third offered hope he would be adding to his tally soon; tongue-tie returns today; considered. |
9/2 |

3rd 8 (3) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten just a nose at Newcastle (5f, AW) in March and close fifth of 13 over this C&D (good) last month; might not be far away if he's on a going day but he's been up and down this season and was soundly beaten at Thirsk (5f, good) last time. |

Inconsistent front-runner but was close up behind Vantheman at Hamilton and this flatter track could suit better; respected. |

9st 7lb |
Made an impressive winning debut when making all at Southwell (5f, Tapeta) a year ago and only beaten half a length there (first-time tongue-tie) on her penultimate start; blinkers now given a go after one try in cheekpieces, but she will do well to dominate this field. |

Early promise for this yard but he's been struggling for form this winter; tackles 7f for the first time; stable may have stronger claims with Straight A. |

Rated considerably higher this time 12 months ago but he's down in the weights as a result of some modest runs since March; returning to 6f not enough to tempt this time. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Still short of his best form but last month's midfield finish at Southwell was a step back in the right direction; 2lb lower today and no surprise to see him in the shake up. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Well handicapped on the pick of his form which includes a win here, but he arrives under a cloud; finished last on Sunday and hard to fancy. |
