1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Enjoyed an excellent 2025 when a four-time scorer, including in 5f Group 3 at Dundalk in October; yet to fire this term and failed to beat a rival in 5f Pontefract handicap last month; tried in a change of headgear here. |

7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |

Not solid on form shown in UAE and Britain this year but is very useful on his day, being a turf Listed and AW Group 3 scorer last term, as well as close second in the Epsom "Dash". |

21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |

Four wins in 2025, notably a Group 3 at Dundalk in October; struggled in two runs in the Middle East this year and he is 4lb higher than when second in last summer's Dash at Epsom, his most recent run in a handicap. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Had been running well on the AW this winter and wasn't for catching after setting a strong pace over this C&D last month (third has won since); an 8lb rise still leaves him on a fair mark based on his previous form but he does now step back up in grade. |
5/1 |

11th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Ultra-reliable operator on AW, running another solid race when second to a class-dropper at Wolverhampton (5f; first time visor) last month; lesser strike-rate on turf but he is fully effective on it and he has been given a real chance by the handicapper, dropped 10lb for his last two turf defeats (in Class 3); should go well. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in January on second start since returning to this stable and he went close over that same C&D next time; ran creditably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) 17 days ago but he has a better strike-rate on the AW (1-24 on turf). |
10/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |

Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and it's four years since his sole success in this sphere; not the percentage call in this first grass attempt since last August. |

3rd 10 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Won three 5f handicaps in 2025; continued to run well on his first three starts this year but he didn't really fire behind a stablemate at Goodwood (5f, good) last time; that took his losing run up to ten and he needs to get back near his best. |
15/2 |
|
4th 11 (10) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Notched three 5f handicaps in 2025 and he has continued in decent form this season, fifth of 14 at Musselburgh last month; ought to be thereabouts once more off an easing mark. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (2) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Prominent racer who won off 2lb lower at Newbury (5f, good to firm) last summer; held his form well without winning on the AW over the winter; no obvious reason why he won't be involved again but one or two of these could be better handicapped. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Hasn't built on his success at Southwell (5f, AW) in March; not disgraced when sixth over C&D nine days ago but he'll need more if he's to return to winning ways. |
12/1 |
|
6th 22 (5) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Won off this mark in small field at Southwell (5f, AW) in March; ran pretty well on next two starts but down the field at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) latest and others are preferred in a hotter race than he's used to. |
33/1 |
|
8th 8 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
A wind op last spring had a positive effect; back to winning ways with a ready Southwell win in March; both runs since have been respectable but others in the field look better handicapped. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up in this race in 2024, and he warmed up nicely for another bid with a good fourth in a big field over C&D at the Dante meeting; should be in the thick of things once more. |
12/1 |
|
4th 20 (15) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Two wins last autumn and he's better than he's shown at Pontefract and Ascot of late; however, this is tougher and he needs to raise his game. |
33/1 |
|
10th 6 (5) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not handicapped out of things and his latest run at Pontefract, his first start for 12 weeks, was creditable; twice a course winner and likely to make a bold bid. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won four times in 2024, but losing run up to 14 despite a tumbling mark; fair effort when fourth of 13 at Catterick (7f, good) 18 days ago, though, and the winner has gone in again since; each way claims. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
He needs to produce a bigger performance than he's managed over 6f on his four starts this spring but he hasn't been running badly and is dropping down the weights; showed promise over 7f at Carlisle last September and the step back up in trip may be a positive move; possible player. |
9/1 |
|
6th 6 (10) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a dangerous mark now and his three runs this year have offered hope that his losing run could be snapped imminently; effective on AW and likely to be involved. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Inconsistent front-runner but was close up behind Vantheman at Hamilton and this flatter track could suit better; respected. |
12/1 |
|
5th 9 (11) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Inconsistent front-runner who's given a third try in a tongue-tie following a below-par effort back on turf last time (made much of the running from the rail draw at Musselburgh); on a competitive mark if he's on a going day though. |
10/1 |
|
6th 5 (13) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent last year but won twice (5f, good), including over C&D, and he returned to form with a near-miss at Newcastle (5f, AW) last month; major player if he's once more on a going day. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Dropped in the weights and much more competitive in recent starts, second at Chelmsford and Southwell before finishing third behind Sturlasson back at Southwell two weeks ago; better off at the weights with that rival today but might not reverse the placings. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Her losing run goes back more than a year but she's been running well of late and confirmed her liking for this C&D when losing out narrowly to a well-treated rival (pair well clear) last week; solid claims. |
11/4 |
|
1 (6) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Dropped a long way in the weights this year and she returned to form with a good second at Chelmsford last month (ran without the declared tongue-tie); back up 2lb but still well treated on last season's best; C&D winner; considered. |
