4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Not far behind Spartan Fighter here last month and now 11lb better off; not so good at Southwell last time when the cheekpieces were left off; headgear back on today. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Often slowly away, as when winning over C&D last February; three 6f runs since October have all been creditable and the step back up in trip could give him a lift. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Won three of her first nine starts for Mick Appleby; a particularly slow start cost her dear when fourth to Maids Head at Chelmsford last time (sent off favourite, perhaps as she was unpenalised for winning an apprentice contest); 2lb higher here. |

Arrives at the top of his game, scoring twice over 1m here before a good second of 12 in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap 12 days ago; firmly in the picture off the same mark. |

19th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner just under a year ago and comes into this on a hat-trick after two wins at Southwell (1m, Tapeta), the latest a narrow success under Andrea Pinna 11 days ago; up another 2lb and although his wide draw isn't ideal, he has to be respected in his current mood. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Hanging to his left may have cost him dear when a close fourth behind Barnsnape Boy in a C&D classified event 12 days ago; each-way claims if keeping straighter. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Often a front-runner; returns to turf for the first time since winning a 0-60 handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last July but he does appear to face a difficult task on these terms. |

Front-runner who won over C&D in 2024; beaten around 6l when third here in January but he's been well held in two starts since; others preferred. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Has won three 6f events on AW since August, one here; last run at Pontefract forgiven as he was drawn wide but he was also below par here the time before when behind Mount Ruapehu. |

7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |

Prominent racer who has won three 6f events on AW since August; not at his best at Southwell last month and he has a wide stall to overcome returned to 5f. |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Enthusiastic front-runner with three 6f wins to his name on AW, including here last October; ran his best race for some time when scoring at Chelmsford three weeks ago but even that will need bettering if he is to overcome a 4lb rise. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
16-race maiden; just touched off in the corresponding event 12 months ago (good ground); absent until returning over 5f here last month, a race where he weakened in the final furlong having raced on his own up the far rail; goes without the blinkers today but still more appealing than many. |
6/1 |

8th 11 (1) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
15-race maiden but he was runner-up in a classified event here (6f, good) in his final run last season; returns after 341 days off but he should be fine back at this trip and he needs watching in market. |
12/1 |

2nd 8 (11) |
12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |

14-race maiden; finished in front of Korroor at Leicester last week and would have finished closer still but for meeting trouble close home; he'll need to settle better back up in trip but he's not discounted. |
