11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Six-time Southwell winner, latterly by a wide margin in an apprentice handicap in March (handicapper punished him for that); finished held twice since and his record round here is nothing like as good. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Often a front-runner and has won here six times, the latest (1m6f) in March; finished well behind a couple of these over C&D last time, though, so has a bit to find. |

All six AW wins have come here (four of them under Elle-May Croot), the latest by more than 7l over 1m6f last month; has been hit with an 8lb rise, but could enjoy the run of the race if reverting to his usual front-running tactics. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 1m4f scorer for James Owen last March but below par for his current stable, a never-dangerous fourth of seven on his return in 1m1f Musselburgh handicap 34 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |

Respectable fifth on AW last June on his first start for Alison Hamilton but lost his way badly in three subsequent outings; back from six months off and a leap of faith is needed. |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Four-time AW winner; ran okay when fifth of 12 over this C&D in June but he failed to beat a rival home at Hamilton (1m5f, good; beaten 24l) 75 days ago; switches back to AW and drops in trip having been off since. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
30-race maiden Flat and jumps; bought for 3,400gns in February; well beaten on stable debut at Kelso last month (2m2f, good); should improve for that run; on a good mark at present. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |

0-22 on the Flat and 0-7 over hurdles; sold out of Matt Crawley's stable for 3,400gns after well-held fourth at Fakenham (2m, soft) in February but ought to be better suited by the forecast faster ground here, and could plausibly have been perked up by her new regime. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in January; runner-up at Southwell (1m6f) next time and has won over 1m6f at Wolverhampton and Southwell on his two starts since; his wins have been narrow ones, meaning he is climbing the weights only slowly, and there can be optimism this progressive 5yo has more left in the tank. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |

In fine form lately with wins at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) and from a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta); finished runner-up over this C&D in between and although up 3lb, is likely to be bang there once again. |

Notched four Flat wins last year, including over 1m3f here on good; returned from a break to win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, good) this month; only a fair fourth at Aintree since but still respected back on the Flat. |
