25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Five wins at up to 1m4f but last three have been on AW and last turf win was 2022; finished placed twice on AW this season but he was last of five over C&D last month and was beaten 12l on that stable debut; opposable. |

Five-time winner; picked off by late arrivals at Chelmsford (1m2f) earlier this month and a day later changed hands for 6,000gns at the sales; could have further wins in him. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless since 2024 and is having his first run on turf in three years; down to a career-low mark and has been in fair form in blinkers, but he's regressive and has returned three poor efforts in turf handicaps. |
4/1 |

11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Dual C&D winner who's been brightened up by the blinkers of late without having the breaks; a slow start cost him here a month ago and he's one to consider. |

10st 0lb |
Course winner over 2m in October 2024 but her last three wins have been at Windsor over 11.5f; well held in three starts this year, albeit she wasn't helped by being caught wide at Lingfield last month. |
16/1 |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Six-time winner, with four at Windsor (11.4f) and two on Polytrack (1m2f/2m); her last success was off 2lb higher last autumn but she's been disappointing in last two runs and needs to get back on track. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On a long losing run but he signalled he is ready to strike again when an unlucky-in-running third of 12 in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap a week ago, twice hampered in the straight; big shout off an unchanged mark. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 6 (9) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Just 2-43 with his sole success in Britain coming over 9.4f here; has finished runner-up in five of his seven starts over C&D and is lower in the weights than for all of them; capable of making some sort of impact. |
6/1 |

7th 1 (7) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Doesn't always appear the most resolute in a finish but he is regularly placed and conditions hold no terrors; each-way claims once more. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won juvenile hurdle over C&D in 2022; ended long losing run in basement-grade Flat race last month but has not run over hurdles since November 2024 and his current ability over jumps is tricky to gauge. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

It's been a while since he got his head in front on the line; was beaten less than 3l at Windsor last month and drops into a classified; needs to be considered. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
7-25 on the AW, with one of the wins coming on his only Chelmsford start; creditable third of ten at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) 19 days ago and the second from that race has won since; stamina not assured over the longest he's tackled but can be very competitive from his mark. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
7-24 on the AW with six of those wins coming at Lingfield (1m2f/1m4f); no joy in three turf runs in May/June but he didn't get much luck back on AW at Wolverhampton last month; now only 1lb higher than for his C&D win in April and he's in the mix back at this track. |
15/2 |

31st Jul 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
7-23 on the AW with all wins coming over 1m2f/1m4f on Polytrack, six of them at Lingfield; 0-7 on Tapeta, but runner-up on four occasions so he isn't easy to dismiss. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Scored off 2lb lower at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) in June and has claims if judged on that performance but ought to have been suited by return to Polytrack when unplaced favourite at Kempton (1m4f) 18 days ago, and the forecast rain may not aid his cause here. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Five-time course winner (1m-1m3f) who gained his third success on turf when winning under Billy Loughnane at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) in June; can't be dismissed back on the AW off this 2lb higher mark. |
9/4 |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
7-32 on the AW and 2-19 on turf, but he has performed well on grass in his last two starts, latterly over 1m2f at Yarmouth where he didn't get the clearest of runs; respected. |

No win on turf since successful over C&D (good to firm) in July 2024; losing run up to 12, but 4lb below his last winning mark and has won on soft ground; shortlisted. |

5th 1 (6) |
12th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Placed here (1m2f, good) in June, after a break, and not discredited when second of four over C&D (good) last month; remains well handicapped on some of his winter AW form and can make his presence felt again. |

29th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a 1m3f maiden at Kempton (AW) last April but she's found it tougher in handicaps since; the hood she wore when well held at Lingfield last month is quickly discarded; others are more obvious. |

28th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won a 1m3f maiden at Kempton (Polytrack) last April but she's found it tough going in handicaps since, including in two runs this winter; mark continues to fall but she's now 1-7 and needs a hood to make a difference. |
9/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
7th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Winner of a 1m3f maiden at Kempton last April; failed to kick on for a switch to handicapping (mostly turf); faded at Lingfield (1m2f; 33-1) five weeks ago but is entitled to strip fitter for that - her first run since June - and a further 2lb ease in the weights is helpful; chance. |
