24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won twice over 1m on Tapeta at the start of the year (including here), but has steadily regressed since; may need this after four months off and could probably do with another furlong in any case. |

27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins were over 1m on AW early this year; has some fair form on turf but he's been well held back in this sphere in both runs for current yard; bit to prove again and has work to do back up in trip and grade; another change of headgear. |

16th Jun 2025 Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins were over this trip with blinkers on the AW in January/February this year; has some fair form on turf, but was well beaten after a break at Redcar last time (1m, good to firm; cheekpieces tried); should come on for that; blinkers back on. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Five-time AW winner but 0-24 on turf; will appreciate this ease in grade but has been out of form since returning from a break in June; needs to turn things around. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Very rarely goes this far and it's a long time since he won at higher than 0-55 level; always a chance he'll miss the break too and he's some way down the pecking order. |

Well handicapped on pick of this year's AW form but finished well down the field on both starts last month (1m1f/7f) and is now 0-23 on turf. |

10th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Continues to edge down the weights and he's run the odd fair race this year, but he's without a win since November 2023 and it's hard to be confident regarding his claims. |

9st 0lb |
He has run some fair races for this yard but all four wins, the latest of them in November 2023, have come over 6f on Polytrack; solid effort over 1m last week; each-way shout. |

Three C&D wins to his name, including this race 12 months ago; arrived in good form on that occasion whereas he has been struggling this winter; new headgear not enough to tempt. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 1m classified event at Southwell last March; not firing on all cylinders this winter and stamina for this trip has to be taken on trust. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Kept on for fourth in 1m Southwell handicap in October, after a break, but this 9yo was not in the same form on any of his three subsequent appearances there; cheekpieces removed after one use. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Best known for his Newcastle work but goes well here too; consistent enough and the handicapper has given him a chance, back on the AW and given another try without the usual hood. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ran respectably, albeit without being able to justify favouritism, at Chepstow latest start and is back on last winning mark; however, he's a quirky sort who comes with some risk; steps back up in class. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Five of his six wins have come on AW; didn't look straightforward without usual hood or tongue-tie (back on here) when fourth of seven at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; two things in his favour here are that he is the only distance winner in the field and this represents a drop in grade, so he needs to be considered seriously. |

9st 6lb |
3lb lower than when gaining her sole success in 22 starts at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in January, but not matched that form since and she didn't run very well in two previous goes on good to firm ground. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Sole win came on AW at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in January; failed to match that level since but she's been a respectable third in her last two outings, including at Lingfield (7f, soft) 26 days ago. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (7) |
7th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Got off the mark at Chelmsford (7f) in January but she has been below that level subsequently, a never-nearer third of nine in 7f AW handicap here in March; she needs to bounce back in a change of headgear. |
7/1 |
