Third reserve; four-time winner in Britain for George Boughey, including two on quick ground; starts out for new yard off what looks a tough mark; rain would be a negative. |

9st 6lb |
Completed a four-timer in April/May but has taken backward steps the last twice; chance of resuming progress depends on how well he responds to added cheekpieces and the new trip. |

Formerly effective on AW but has produced best results for current stable on turf; regressive form since returned to AW started with a modest third over C&D (sole 2m attempt). |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six time winner who won three in a row in January/February and he ran another good race when third at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) last month; won on turf last summer but that was off a much lower mark and he needs to transfer his progress back to this sphere. |
5/1 |

3rd 4 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Thriving for his current yard and he completed a hat-trick in 1m2f Chelmsford handicap in February; up another 4lb but this C&D winner rates a player in his bid for a four-timer. |
9/2 |

1st 2 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Improver who has won four of his last nine starts and he made it 2-3 for current yard when scoring over C&D 13 days ago; remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher and he's a big player again in hat-trick bid. |

19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Infrequent winner but he showed the right attitude when going in at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) last Sunday; boasts a good record here, his win coming at this time of the year too, and he has a fair chance of defying a 4lb penalty. |
3/1 |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |

Has modest 2-38 strike-rate but comes here after two pretty good efforts (1m2f/1m) and will be suited by today's move back up in trip; might be the answer. |

Close third in a 1m2f handicap here in February but he's been well held in six subsequent runs and is now 0-11; first-time blinkers are added into the mix. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ten-race maiden; seemingly aided by first-time hood when placed at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) last month but was below that form in Lingfield classified a fortnight ago; others have more persuasive profiles. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 6 |

0-9 but placed for the second time sporting a first-time hood (retained) when third of eight at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) 19 days ago; contests his first classified and holds place claims. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-18 but does possess ability as when second of 15 on his return from four months off here (1m2f, good to firm) nine days ago; usually takes a good grip, though, and this sort of trip has found him out in the past. |
11/2 |

2nd 14 (12) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Slowly into stride but still finished second to subsequent prolific winner in similar event over C&D around this time last year; blew the start again when beaten a head at Leicester (1m2f, also good to firm) three weeks later; still not perfected the art of starting but mark is reduced after AW spell and he's dangerous back on turf if ready after a break. |
15/2 |

28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Maiden who regularly fluffs the start; failed to get home over 1m4f last time but whether he needs a drop back to 1m is debatable; best form when runner-up twice over 1m2f (on turf). |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |

May have done too much early and might have failed for stamina when sixth of eight at Chelmsford (13.3f. Polytrack) 13 days ago (Take The Boat second); better judged on his previous form around here including wins over 1m3f/1m4f; respected for stable that also runs Maywedance. |

Sole success came over C&D last August off today's mark; had excuses when bit slipped through the mouth at Windsor in June, and was lit up by first-time cheekpieces (retained) last time; needs to step up nevertheless. |

Won off a similar mark here (11.6f, firm) last August but that is her only success from 41 starts and she's been out of sorts in last three runs; down the list. |

25th Jun 2025 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |

7th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Running well enough to think she can be involved to some extent but her convincing Bath win at about 1m3f in August came on firm ground and she has more to prove with the recent rain. |
