20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Three-time Newcastle winner who made the breakthrough on turf at Haydock (1m3f, good) last July; acquitted herself respectably in Class 2 contests at York (fifth) and Doncaster (seventh) last autumn, but her form has tapered off; fast easing handicap mark. |

1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Progressive for cheekpieces going on early last year, with three course wins, latterly off a 4lb lower mark; again goes without the headgear back from six months off and there's nothing to suggest she's best caught fresh. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Did well to win at York (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in August but only fourth of five in the Great Metropolitan at Epsom (also 1m4f, good, Topteam behind) 17 days ago; that was a shade underwhelming given he'd won the race in 2025 but was a little weak in the market so maybe better can be expected this time. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Last year's winner (good) who ran well in two other appearances over C&D; did well to win at York (1m4f, good to firm) under John Egan in August and arrives here fit after three creditable efforts at Meydan; firm contender. |

Had a busy 12 months but right on the money when staying on best last time at York (1m4f) and this stiff finish will suit him well, as it has done before; only 3lb higher. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
24 visits to Newcastle have yielded nine wins, seven over C&D; the latest came on New Year's Day when beating five rivals; fifth of 12 at Southwell since and could better that performance now back here, but there's a suspicion today's contest will prove too competitive. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Enhanced his outstanding Newcastle record (all nine AW wins there) on New Year's Day when fending off five rivals; only 2lb higher and he'll probably be ridden positively as usual; has only raced twice here (unplaced). |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All his three wins were over 1m2f at Newcastle last October-December, easily on last occasion, but his creditable third there on latest outing suggests that the handicapper has caught up. |
14/1 |

3rd 2 (1) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won three over C&D (Class 5) between October and December, rising 20lb in the weights; reportedly "ran flat" when only fifth of six (beaten over 12l) over C&D (Class 3) on New Year's Day; given a short break since, and this is marginally easier (a Class 4); chance. |

10st 2lb |
All three wins on good to soft, the latest in October 2023; third off 5lb higher at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in March but disappointing since. |

26th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

Has become well handicapped, but is usually seen over further and the drop in trip didn't inspire him at Carlisle (7.7f, soft) last month; others preferred. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Has slipped to a career-low mark and well-backed fifth of 15 when returned to turf at Doncaster (1m2f) in March last time wasn't too bad; however, his record over that sort of trip is far more appealing than his two runs at 1m4f and his turf tally is 0-11. |
10/1 |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Drawn a blank since AW debut success but was placed over this trip on turf (good/good to firm) off higher marks last season; hard to get too excited by this winter's AW efforts but it's possible an eight-week break could have had a reviving effect; one to note in the betting. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |

7f Tapeta winner but has not won since that debut in 2023; was a close second on turf from a higher mark last season but needs to be much better than his latest AW effort. |

Twice well held at Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta) since winning from 1lb lower over C&D (well behind Metallo on the first occasion); needs to bounce back in the first-time cheekpieces. |

17th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Registered a Class 4 success at Chelmsford last month on third start for new yard, taking his 1m2f form figures to 421; upped a couple of grades but may have more to offer at this distance. |
