8th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On a losing run but he wasn't best drawn when seventh of 11 in 6f Pontefract handicap 43 days ago; he needs considering off a handy-looking mark. |

Runner-up in the Group 2 Gimcrack Stakes as a 2yo; nothing like so good now but that wasn't a barrier to success in the corresponding event 12 months ago; 7lb lower this time around and he didn't run badly at Thirsk 17 days ago; headgear left off today. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Authoritative win over C&D on first start for Chris Gordon last May and plenty went wrong when bidding to win that race again two starts ago (surely would have been heavily involved with a clear run); beaten into second at even-money on AW next time but the winner rather stole it; shortlisted. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Nothing wrong with his C&D second a month ago and was unlucky back on turf last time (same Bath handicap he won last season), when hitting plenty of traffic; will rightly be popular. |

6th 2 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won this race (firm) last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Kempton in the autumn; has remained in good form on AW this year and he chased home an improver at Lingfield (6f) last month; should get a good pace back on turf and he's a big player back at this track. |

24th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins were in September including over C&D; mixed form since her last success but was a clear second at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) last time and has claims if she can back that up off an unchanged mark. |
9/1 |

2nd 4 (7) |
8th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins over 6f on the AW last September; had dropped 1lb below her last winning mark when a close fourth of 11 at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta; first-time cheepieces) 11 days ago, but her stamina for this far remains unproven. |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
1-20 with his win coming over C&D in February; 1lb lower than when beaten less than a length into second of 13 here in April and very much a player if reproducing that form. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-19 with the win coming in a Wolverhampton handicap (6f, AW) in February; five starts on turf leave something to be desired, but he does drop to this level for the first time; respected. |

16th Jul 2025 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
All four wins on AW; not beaten far when third over C&D in April but ran no sort of race when last of nine over C&D when last seen in May; another headgear switch and is becoming frustrating. |

9th 9 (1) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner who is 0-29 on turf but he ran well to finish third over C&D (good; 100-30 favourite) three weeks ago; rallied well in that race and he should be in the thick of things again off only 1lb higher. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |

Led close home to score at Wolverhampton just before Christmas but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; a 0-28 turf record is enough reason to look elsewhere. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
In fine form at 6f on the AW of late, winning at Southwell and Newcastle; has a better strike-rate on sand than turf (1-17) but he was running to a similar level on grass as AW in 2025 and it may be unwise to presume he's a one-surface wonder; respected. |

1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Good efforts in all three 6f runs this year, placed behind the prolific Yorkshire Glory twice and readily seeing off five rivals at Southwell eight days ago; 1lb well in under a penalty; should go well. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

18 months since his last win but he is fully effective over C&D and he ran well for third here when last seen in January; this might not be the time to catch him. |

3rd 9 (6) |
26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

All ten wins have been on AW including five at this track; runner-up off 2lb higher over C&D in September but it has been tough going since and others look safer. |

28th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Better at 6f these days and can be given a pass for his latest Southwell run (5f); second over C&D on his penultimate start and he is one to consider at this level. |
