29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Fully exposed but always dangerous when getting a strong pace to chase and this is much easier than at Goodwood last time; has form here. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won at Goodwood (5f, good) in the spring and has remained in form, second of seven at Lingfield last time; no obvious reason why he won't be thereabouts again but he's fully exposed after 52 starts. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 1-20 on turf but that win was off 1lb lower at Goodwood in May; hasn't matched that form in three subsequent runs but he ran into a well-handicapped rival when a 4l second at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last time; now drops back into a Class 5 event and he's not ruled out. |

8st 6lb |
Had a bit in hand when winning over C&D last month and was caught on the line over 6f here nine days ago (off this 3lb higher mark); has to go well again. |

Not been with Chris Gordon for long and he has run two good races for the yard, finishing second at Windsor before getting the better of Washington Heir over 5.3f here 16 days ago; whether he can prove quite so effective over 6f remains to be seen. |

1st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Three wins in Britain at 5f (twice on AW); placed at Lingfield over the winter before being bought for 14,000gns in February; dropped out quickly after forcing pace on yard debut in Naas handicap last month on soft; probably best watched for now. |

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. |
12/1 |

8th 6 (9) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
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. |
6/1 |

1st 3 (7) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

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. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-35, with the latest success coming at Lingfield (7f, AW) in December off a mark 8lb higher than today's; never featured over this trip at Wolverhampton 31 days ago and better is needed. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, and most racing, come over 7f, including when making all on his second start for this yard on Polytrack off 6lb higher in the winter; not at his best lately and, while well drawn, may not get his own way as he likes back down in trip. |
16/1 |

7th 6 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield in December, his second start for Mark Loughnane; in and out since that success but no doubt he is handicapped to go well and he has run well over C&D in the past (including finishing second in this race year off 4lb higher); one to consider with Billy Loughnane back in the saddle. |

1st Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Struggled on turf on two of his last three starts (ran well over 6f here in between) but that hasn't done his mark any harm; a strongly run race at this trip would suit; likely to go well. |
15/2 |

6th 5 (3) |
21st Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Had a productive time on AW over the winter and he's held his form well enough; the only real blip since November came when disappointing at Windsor on his penultimate start which now raises doubts back on turf. |
12/1 |

9 (5) |
1st Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
His form dipped on turf three weeks ago but he was in fine form on AW over the winter, winning twice at Lingfield and going close over C&D last month; perhaps a shade high in the weights for a race as competitive as this one. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 5lb |
Has turned the corner with two quick 6f wins under this rider last week; was 5lb well-in when winning here a week ago (heavily backed); travelled well just behind the speed then, so maybe 5f will be okay given the form he's in at present, and well drawn for the hat-trick bid. |

1st 11 (5) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Fair effort in a 5f Navan handicap before running out a very decisive winner of a 6f handicap at Fairyhouse on Monday (Coincidental Glory third); went up 12lb for that but just has the mandatory 7lb to carry this evening; hard to beat if coming here in the same form. |

1st 17 (15) |
21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |

Had decent form in maidens at three when trained in Britain; modest form for this yard until showing more when 3.5l off Irish Rumour at Navan earlier this month. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Modest strike-rate but his handicap wins have come on his last two starts, over 5f on Wolverhampton AW and at Bath, when taking advantage of a drop in the weights and the refitting of blinkers; still on a fair mark on past 6f form and bold bid likely on course debut. |
2/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
With blinkers belatedly back on he finished off best over 5f at Wolverhampton 12 days ago when they didn't hang about up front; fair shout off 4lb higher should he be as good again. |
3/1 |
|
1st 8 (2) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
1-29, that win in a 5f Chelmsford novice (for Olly Murphy) back in February 2024; third at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) in July but his efforts either side of that don't instill confidence; notable Billy Loughnane is booked. |
7/1 |
