9th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-17 since completing a hat-trick over C&D early last year and recent form has been patchy; has dropped to a favourable mark, but others are still more compelling. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Completed a Wolverhampton hat-trick around this time last year and returned to form with a close fourth there 16 days ago despite a slow start and hitting some traffic; has won twice here so needs considering. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not very consistent, but has won nine races, eight on the AW; twice well held since winning a handicap at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in June, but more than capable of playing a part if on a going day. |
7/1 |

9th 12 (6) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Won over Newcastle's 6f in June (5lb lower) but he's very hit and miss and pulled hard when down the field at Southwell (stays 7f). |
25/1 |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Won Kempton classified (7f, Polytrack) in March and, after five unplaced runs, he returned to form with convincing handicap win at 20-1 at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) last week; bang there if backing up that latest effort. |

Went close at Pontefract in July on her most recent turf run; disappointing on AW last time but should be a force at this modest level. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Seven wins on the AW elsewhere; surrounded by subsequent winners when beaten half a length into second of five at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month and a 1lb rise still leaves him 6lb below his last winning mark; shortlisted. |
9/2 |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins in 2025 include one over C&D; has shaped as if back in form on his last two starts, including when a front-running second of five at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; should go well. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five wins in 2025, including C&D, but rather going through the motions this time around; showed a bit more spark with his front-running sixth at Kempton in May; on a manageable mark and the type to come good again soon. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Veteran who is on a lengthy losing run; can lead but didn't at Windsor last time and was never involved; if on his game he wouldn't be without hope. |
8/1 |

6th 8 (2) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Veteran who is on a losing run of 22; knocking on the door on AW when last seen and he won't mind getting back on the grass; has made the running but it is not a prerequisite; could go well. |
13/2 |

4th 10 (3) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Veteran with nine wins on his record, all over sprint trips; stays this far though and he holds each-way claims once more. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Poor strike-rate, including 0-27 on turf; would need a major pace collapse to win over this trip. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |

Poor strike-rate, including 0-26 on turf; unlikely to be righting that wrong from 5lb out of the weights. |

26th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

20th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All three wins have been at Wolverhampton but ran well behind Pockley over C&D last month; not ideally drawn when below best last time but couldn't rule out here. |

|
7 (9) |
17th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins have come at this track (6f/7f) and he's run respectably in classified events on Tapeta in last two starts; on dangerous mark back in a handicap and has possibilities if he can find something extra. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
8th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

He didn't run badly in a classified event at Wolverhampton two weeks ago (cheekpieces refitted) and returning to 5f could help; has course form and he's not ruled out. |

Well treated on his old form but he's an infrequent winner who has finished down the field in his last six starts and last two have been on Tapeta; down the list. |

9st 0lb |
Both wins have been over 1m at Yarmouth and latest was in August 2022; reached the frame a few times since November but she's been well held over 7f in last two starts; new headgear is now tried but she's not run over this trip for a long time and others are are preferred. |
