29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
6-35 for Stuart Williams but 0-11 on turf and, despite a falling mark, that's the obvious concern on this first start for new connections. |

26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Third, beaten 1.25l by Over Spiced, in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; that represented his best turf result but this race will demand an even bigger effort. |
9/1 |

3rd 6 (3) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Big chance on his AW form but he has finished out of the placings in all nine turf runs; BHA mark is 15lb lower on turf but he's likely to remain vulnerable. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ended losing run with an emphatic success at Wolverhampton (5f) six weeks ago and the runner-up has done his bit for the form since; still seeking a first turf win though and following up off 7lb higher won't be easy. |
7/2 |
|
1st 4 |
29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins on Tapeta elsewhere, at 5f-7f, all in 2024; has been involved in several tight finishes since December, including for Oisin Murphy at Kempton (6f) in April, and while he's been on much the same mark throughout, he's worth another go over a bare 5f; thereabouts. |
4/1 |
|
12th 8 (12) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Yet to win in ten starts for current stable but he has been placed in seven of them, including back on turf at Wetherby 13 days ago (5.5f, good to firm); should run his race but this looks a tough race in which to end his losing streak. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Still short of his best form but last month's midfield finish at Southwell was a step back in the right direction; 2lb lower today and no surprise to see him in the shake up. |
7/1 |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well handicapped on the pick of his form which includes a win here, but he arrives under a cloud; finished last on Sunday and hard to fancy. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Five AW wins, the latest from the front off 2lb lower at Newcastle (6f) in February; well below that form on turf lately but still worth keeping an eye on in the betting. |
14/1 |
|
8th 3 (8) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Only turf win came off a much lower mark more than two years ago and he remains weighted to his AW best after a couple of no-shows at Yarmouth last month; some way down the pecking order. |
16/1 |
|
4th 3 (6) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Tends to lead; started the year well on AW but it all went wrong at Newcastle in March and he could only beat one home in seven-runner 5f course handicap a fortnight ago; easy ground probably no help that day and it's not impossible this C&D winner can stage a revival. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Six-time winner; effective at this track and she arrives on the back of a good second under Myla Coppins at Nottingham (5f, good) three weeks ago; has a low draw and looks set for another big run. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 6 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Six-time winner including four on turf (good/soft); runner-up in final two starts last season but she struggled at Wolverhampton (6f) in her final run last year; this drop back in trip looks a good move on her return but her last three wins have been in Class 5 events and others are preferred. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
17th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Course regular who landed her third race here when making all over C&D (good) in July; similar form when second at Chester (5.5f, soft) last time; player. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins have come over 5f on turf and was only beaten a head at Thirsk (5f, good) six days ago; 1lb well in and won't mind what the weather does; major player. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 1 (12) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Has won five times on turf on a variety of ground; did best of her group when ninth of 17 at Doncaster (5f, good to soft) on her return but failed to beat a rival home at Yarmouth 55 days ago; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
