18th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 32y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Five wins on AW, including at Southwell (1m6f) last time; may remain competitive but looks by no means guaranteed to follow up, being 0-15 in Flat turf events; just 1-20 over hurdles. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual C&D winner; beaten 2l when fourth of six here last month and he was unfortunate not to go even closer when fourth of 12 at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft; short of room late on) 16 days ago; switches back to the AW with a good chance. |

Returned to the Flat with respectable fourth of six at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last month but is still 3lb higher than for narrow AW win last autumn, and his Flat turf strike-rate is 0-14. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
All eight Flat wins have been on the AW, though he's won twice over hurdles at up to 2m4f; very capable at the right level but this isn't it; faces a mammoth task on all the figures. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Highly fruitful in his two and a half years with this yard, including two wins (Flat/hurdles) this February/March; needs to bounce back from a rare flop but the chief concern is his 0-15 record on Flat turf. |

Thriving at present and he followed up 1m6f Chelmsford success in February with an emphatic victory over hurdles at Huntingdon last month; big shout once more. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Back to form when second of eight in 1m handicap at Newmarket 13 days ago; this C&D winner take a big step back up in trip now and must enter calculations off a reduced mark. |

2nd 7 (4) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
His two Flat wins have been over 1m6f and 2m on AW; won over hurdles at Worcester last summer but he's been generally disappointing since, including in three Flat runs this season; continues to drop down the weights but he was sixth of seven over C&D last time and others are preferred. |

His two Flat wins have been over 1m6f and 2m on AW; won over hurdles at Worcester last summer but he's been generally disappointing since, including in two Flat runs (1m2f/11.4f) this season; has plenty to prove and his tactical speed will be tested back at this trip. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Landed a Catterick handicap in May on his second start for Joey Ramsden and got off to the perfect start for this stable in a classified event at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) eight days ago, winning decisively; returns to handicap company with strong claims under a 4lb penalty. |
11/4 |

1st 5 (1) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four of his seven wins have come over 1m4f/1m6f here and showed he retained ability when winning a handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good) in May; now makes his debut for his eighth different trainer (same owners) and his course record makes him of interest. |
9/1 |

6th 9 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won on his second start for this stable (and second run since wind surgery) at Catterick (1m4f, good) last month and did best of those from off the pace when fourth in a classified at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) 11 days ago; stepping back up in trip looks a good move and he's a contender. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Runner-up in three bumpers in 2024 but her Flat win in June came in a basement-grade classified race and she'll need to take pretty well to hurdling to pose a threat here. |
20/1 |

4th 5 (2) |
14th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Showed the benefit of a wind operation when winning a classified event at Windsor (1m4f, good to soft) last month and backed that up with a good second behind an in-form rival at Ayr (1m5f, soft); acts on the AW and she makes the shortlist on this return to handicap company. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
11st 1lb |
Long time since he won on the Flat and he had lost his way when last seen; the change of yard will need to spark a revival and there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh. |

8th 7 (1) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Not beaten far into fifth in a 2m handicap here four weeks ago; on a fair mark but others bring more persuasive claims. |
