30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has done most of his racing over 7f, winning six times (all on AW); back in form with placed efforts on last two starts, latest at Kempton; close third at this venue in sole 1m attempt; again has an each-way shout. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Last 11 AW starts have been on Tapeta (231115111852), but he was beaten less than a length into third of 14 on his last visit here (1m); back up 1lb for his latest second of 12 at Southwell (7f)), but still 1lb below his last winning mark; respected. |

Won six times on Tapeta (twice over C&D) in first half of 2025, despite his tendency to race too freely; back on a good mark now and bettered a low-key reappearance run when respectable fifth over C&D ten days ago but outside draw a negative today. |

No problem with conditions and he ran his best race back from a short break when fourth of ten at Lingfield last month (7f, AW); more appealing than many off a dangerous mark. |

Three of his four wins have been at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) and latest was in January; finished down the field in last two starts but he had an excuse over 6f last time and he could rediscover his spark back up in trip; not ruled out off workable mark. |

Over two years since the last of his seven wins; several good runs in 2025, including when keeping on for second over 1m four weeks ago; 1lb higher this evening but back at his optimum trip. |

18th Apr 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won 5f novice here last February; handily weighted on the form of some tight finishes over sprint trips later and he appeared to stay 7f well enough on rare attempt at the trip when fourth at Wolverhampton last month; worth giving him the benefit of the doubt that he can do it again. |

17th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Sole win came in 5f AW novice but he was involved in three tight finishes three times last summer and ran his best race of the winter over 6f here last month; not so good on this track since and has a trip query in only his second 7f handicap, the first since 2yo days. |

11th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Can be a handful in the preliminaries (bolted before start/got loose on two occasions) but was never seriously challenged when making all on Lingfield AW (7f) 18 days ago; back up 3lb and might cope with return to 6f with forcing tactics again; more obvious than many. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Yet to be placed in eight starts, though it looked as though he would apprciate the return to this trip when fifth of ten on his Wolverhampton return (6f, Tapeta) three weeks ago; still needs a bit more, though. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
0-7 and lightly raced since a promising 2yo debut; out of the frame in two starts over 7f here in the spring (in cheekpieces, now removed); returns from another 104 days off and only of interest if backed. |

Two wins this summer, including at this track (1m) off 3lb higher in July; struggled since but Kieran O'Neill back on board today and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Versatile trip-wise and six of his 12 wins have come at Windsor; on same mark as for his Sandown win last autumn and he's been running well on AW this spring; should get a good tow into this race and he's in the mix back at this track. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No AW win since December 2021 but there have been some good runs on both Polytrack and Tapeta this year, including C&D, and yesterday's 6f second was another sound display; wasn't helping his rider under pressure on that occasion and opposable for win purposes. |

9st 9lb |
On much reduced mark but this Kempton specialist has not won since 2022 and has form figures of 90068079 this year; cheekpieces return on his second run after a break but he needs a major revival back up in trip. |

Prolific course winner but the latest of them was back in April 2022; now rated 32lb lower but he wasn't in much form earlier in the year; could revive after his break; stable also run Galel; betting can guide. |

Eight-time course winner who is 12lb lower than when a close third over C&D last September; a market check is advised but this 10yo has struggled this year (including here) and is without a win since April 2022. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Runner-up twice at Chepstow this season (1m, good/good to firm) but is far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his recent efforts have been very disappointing; swaps usual blinkers for refitted cheekpieces. |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Very hit-and-miss these days and his second of 13 at Chepstow (good to firm) in July hasn't been reproduced in six subsequent starts; 1lb out of the weights and others look a lot safer. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 3lb |
Usually leads and has the option of going up the far side from stall 1; hit-and-miss these days, for a trainer also responsible for Romanovich (a fellow front-runner drawn on the opposite wing) but is capable off a feather weight if tactics decide the day. |
