6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Ten-time C&D winner, mainly from the front, including twice earlier in the year, latterly off this mark; this company a bit warmer than he's used to and there's other pace in here, so he'll need something close to a career-best effort. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner who is 11-61 on the AW, but 0-6 on turf; has a bit to prove and will probably need the ground to dry out in any case. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Cracking 8yo who has won two Polytrack races in every season for the last five years; however, he finished behind Spendmore Lane and Ancient State at Lingfield recently and the return to Tapeta looks a negative. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Useful in his younger days but, while he remains consistent, he's been on the downgrade for a while and has only won one of his last 43 starts; better effort on his second run back over C&D last time and this is a bit easier off a career-low mark. |
4/1 |

6th 5 (3) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Now at the veteran stage; may have needed last month's Lingfield reappearance and is back off the same mark as when beaten a head over C&D last September; can make the running; stable also runs Kento. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Has run well fresh in the past but is knocking on and may need this after eight months off; doesn't often go beyond 5f these days and is drawn low, so has a bit to overcome. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time AW winner who went close at Lingfield (5f) in March and ran well there over 6f in April, finishing third of five (beaten a length); never got involved there 28 days ago but he could go well returned to 6f. |
9/1 |

6th 1 (3) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner who came close to ending a losing AW run when a fast-closing runner-up here (5f) in March (5f); returns to this C&D for the first time since and ought to go well if the race falls his way. |
7/2 |

More prolific on AW than turf; arrives on the back of a solid third at Lingfield two weeks ago (6f, AW); each-way shout. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Scored at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in May and probably bettered that performance when very close second at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month; recent Windsor run is best overlooked (saddle slipped); slightly out of the weights but the return to 6f won't be a problem; probably won't be far away. |
14/1 |

13th 5 (5) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Nothing like the force of old but he won at Lingfield in May and has been bang there at Newbury and Brighton (beaten a nose) on both starts since, all over about 5f on good to firm; should go well again. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Useful 3yo who's come back to form since dropped to 5f on turf, minus the blinkers, following up his Lingfield win off 3lb lower with a solid effort at Newbury; needs considering but wants a proper test at this trip and a bigger field would have helped. |

Not the force of old and, although he retains some ability, others in this field have more pressing claims. |

4th 3 (5) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Multiple winner in previous seasons; 0-11 this year but is proving consistent, close second returned to AW most recently; remains 1lb below last winning mark; in the mix. |
9/2 |

2nd 3 (1) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of 12 of his 92 starts, the latest success coming at Chelmsford in October off 1lb higher; several good runs to his name this time around and Billy Loughnane replaces a 7lb claimer today; one to take seriously. |
2/1 |

2nd 1 (1) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Losing run up to 13 and he finished over 4l behind Sonic Si when fifth of seven at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday; 1-1 here but he needs to do better than that latest effort. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown inconsistent form, mostly on AW, this year and ran below par over C&D in most recent turf attempt; far from sure to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
20/1 |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won off 9lb higher at Bath (5.6f) last August but he's been up and down since then and has been well held in last three starts; has plenty to prove again and he's not run over this trip since 2021. |
8/1 |

4th 1 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Should be making a big impact off this sort of mark but mixed record early in the year and well held, albeit after 164 days off, at Brighton five weeks ago; others look safer. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
He'd been headed when badly hampered at Newbury recently (not recover) but was without his usual visor, in which he was running really well in defeat previously under Chloe Lyons at up to 5.2f; he should be fine at this trip; the visor returns and he could bounce back with a big run. |
11/2 |
|
8th 1 (8) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Three good turf runs to his name this summer, all for today's apprentice Chloe Lyons and including C&D; no obvious reason why he wouldn't go well once again. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 2 (2) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Handy sort whose record here reads 131; has run well in both starts under Chloe Lyons since returning to turf last month, going down by just a neck at Newbury (5f, good to firm) eight days ago; respected off the same mark. |
5/2 |
