13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Built up a good strike-rate during a one-year period that culminated in April 2025; inconsistent since, as demonstrated by his failure to back up the form of a 2026 reappearance success; others preferred. |

Returned from a 231-day absence to win a C&D handicap in June off just 2lb lower; two disappointing runs have followed and the cheekpieces tried last time are quickly replaced by a first-time visor. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The most recent of his six wins came at Lingfield (7f, AW) in April 2025 off a mark 3lb higher than today's but he has posted some good efforts since; however, he was below his best at Salisbury 19 days ago and needs to bounce back with cheekpieces back on. |

Losing run is mounting up but he has proved broadly consistent since last success, most recently beating all bar the market leader at Musselburgh (7f, good); again has place possibilities. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Better effort when fourth of ten at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) this month and now 2lb below his last winning mark, but he is just 1-42 in Britain. |
6/1 |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Low-key run at Newmarket (6f, good) 12 days ago; return to a longer trip is in his favour but others are more appealing for win purposes. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Only 1lb higher than for his Lingfield (1m, AW) in January; up and down since that success and could prove vulnerable back sprinting. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Veteran who has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and hasn't prevailed in this sphere since York success three years ago; midfield when the 125-1 rank outsider back here last time. |

12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Veteran who won over 7f at Southwell in January but has been operating below his best since; drawn widest and likely best to look elsewhere. |

31st May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Dual winner for Jamie Osborne last year, the latest at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in October; regressive in three starts over 7f here since returning for this yard in March, though, and will need the switch to cheekpieces to make a difference; yard also runs Golden Pharaoh. |

Three-time winner but 0-13 since moving yards and doesn't look about to put that right. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Still seeking a first win for this yard and, although he continues to drop down the weights, this looks too competitive. |

4th 1 (5) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Slowly away on his last three starts; runner-up over 6f here in April following a break; hasn't built on that on turf on his two starts since (6f) but he made late headway at Chester last time and the return to 7f may be a good move; could be involved back here. |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Sole AW win came here and returned to form with a near miss over 1m at Doncaster where he was headed late on; same mark for this and dropping back to 7f won't hurt. |
11/4 |

2nd 6 (13) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Not entirely solid on 2026 efforts but has possibilities on best form, being a four-time Class 4 winner who is in a lower grade today; gained the most recent success 15 months ago. |
11/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Doesn't win often but is down to a career-low mark and is used to doing his racing in better company; has often run well here without winning and showed more back on Tapeta last time, so there are positives on the return from a short break. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Five-time AW winner but hasn't offered anything since his turf win in June, latterly here; Billy Loughnane rides but that's the main positive. |
12/1 |

9th 4 (9) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won over C&D in January and was also on target at Nottingham (6f, good) in June but was always behind at Lingfield (6f, AW) a fortnight ago and is far too inconsistent to rely upon. |
