23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 5 |

Three Flat wins but no joy over hurdles so far, including in two handicaps; refitted blinkers replace cheekpieces; best watched. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 169y Class 5 |

Won three on the Flat but doesn't look up to much over hurdles; completely tailed off on handicap debut here when friendless in the betting; tries two new forms of headgear. |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
More talent than many with his rating but he is often the architect of his own demise, as when virtually refusing to race here three weeks ago; prior to that he'd won a C&D handicap for today's rider so a revival wouldn't be a total shock; headgear off today. |

Had been racing over further but managed to win an amateur riders' event over C&D (first-time blinkers) in April; more needed off 3lb higher, but he still has more to recommend him than some. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Hard to win with and hold-up style means she is reliant on luck in running; that wasn't in evidence here last week (1m2f) when she ran into traffic in the straight, eventually finishing a never-nearer fifth; each-way shout. |

12th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Placed twice off lowly marks this year and will be suited by today's trip/ground but this regressive 7yo is on a fairly long losing run and others here appeal more; visor the headgear of choice today. |
14/1 |

15th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win came in December 2023 but he's run some good races this year, including when third of nine at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) in May; well beaten behind some of these rivals at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) 27 days ago, despite being sent off favourite; cheekpieces replace visor. |
8/1 |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was in December 2023 but he's run some good races this year including when runner-up in a classified at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February and a close third in Leicester handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; looks interesting on that form and he's respected in this weak race. |

Six-time AW winner who is 0-11 on turf but he's been placed at Bath (1m, good) and Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in his last two starts; should go well again and he's respected in change of headgear. |

A fair 2m2f hurdles winner at his best but he ended his time with Gary and Josh Moore out of sorts before Christmas; pulled up on his yard debut over C&D recently and tongue-tie is added here. |

6th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 4 |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |

Won basement-grade Flat race this summer and returned to hurdling with very respectable fourth on handicap debut at Fontwell (2m1f, good) last month; still unexposed over hurdles after only two attempts and has possibilities here; first ride over jumps for 10lb claimer Ben Pollard (three Flat wins). |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who returns to turf 4lb higher than when last seen on it after a Polytrack win in the winter; 0-11 round here down the years and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Lingfield a month ago. |
6/1 |

5th 6 (2) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Scored over C&D (fourth victory here) in December and collared only late on having set a good pace when fourth of eight in 1m Kempton handicap 45 days ago; he merits serious consideration eased 1lb in a headgear change. |

4th 7 (1) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Most effective when able to dominate as he again showed when making all at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) last month; given no peace up front there last time and now 7lb higher than for the win, but dangerous if allowed his own way and does have winning form over C&D. |
