10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Prolific winner, mostly on AW and at 1m6f-2m, including C&D; 1lb higher than when scoring here in February; not quite as good in two subsequent starts but looks a player back up in trip and with the same claimer up as for that most recent success. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Held on to win at Kempton (2m, AW) in February and posted a solid effort when fourth at Southwell (2m, AW) 84 days ago; off since and this drop back in trip probably isn't ideal on his first outing on turf since September 2023. |

Won a Sedgefield handicap hurdle in May (2m1f, good to firm) but has been rather disappointing over hurdles and on the Flat since; needs to bounce back. |

9st 1lb |
Dual winner for Charlie Johnston in 2024; runner-up over this C&D last May on his second start for this yard but he's lost his way since, albeit it was his first start for 301 days when beating only one rival home at Newcastle three weeks ago. |

Two wins for Charlie Johnston in 2024, including over 1m4f on Tapeta; mixed form since and may be better for the run after 301-day break; refused to enter stalls on intended reappearance. |

Course winner for Charlie Johnston; struggled for this yard last summer and returns from nine months off tonight; did win first time out as a 3yo but would want to see some support before considering him. |

11st 0lb |
0-18 under rules but ran her usual solid race when third of ten at Worcester (2m7f, good) 16 days ago in a returning visor (retained); looks sure to give another good account but doesn't appeal for win purposes. |

Runner-up over 2m5f here last April and returned to that sort of form when third over that trip at Exeter (good); she was beaten nearly 7l and is off the same mark here, but perhaps this longer trip is what she needs. |

Ended long losing run when scoring off 1lb lower at Southwell (2m, Tapeta) in November; some creditable efforts since but his form nosedived at Southwell 11 days ago and he needs to bounce back from that heavy defeat. |

9st 10lb |
Made all for his last three wins, the latest at Bath in May; never better than when beaten a nose in four-runner race at Nottingham (again 1m6f on good to firm) two weeks ago, so he needs respect. |

Speedily bred but kicked off over 1m2f and didn't get home over 2m on handicap debut at Newcastle, though that was better; others might see this out stronger. |

10st 1lb |
Was snapping a losing run when prevailing narrowly at Lingfield (1m4f) but then followed up over the same C&D ten days ago, defying a 4lb penalty without being overly pressed; only 2lb higher for this despite another penalty, but stamina for 2m is unproven. |
