30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Yet to run a bad race over C&D, boasting a record of 12312 at the track; second in this race 12 months ago but 4lb higher this time round; met some trouble at a crucial stage at Newbury last time and that isn't the run to judge her on; should go well with all ground seeming to come alike to her. |

16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Eight-time winner, the latest at Bath on her seasonal return in April (5f, good to firm); three solid efforts have followed and she's likely to give her running once again. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Absent since her second to Miss Show Off at Salisbury in early May; reappearance showed she can win when fresh but unplaced efforts in this race the last two years suggest a supporting role is more likely. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple AW winner; quirky sort who often starts slowly but he finally got off the mark (in a change of headgear) on turf in 5f Goodwood handicap last month; up 3lb but he can make his presence felt again. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on AW; record of 0-16 on turf but he was only beaten a nose off this mark at Bath (5f, firm) on Monday; has leading claims if he can repeat that form and he's versatile ground-wise; regular hood is removed and cheekpieces return. |

Multiple AW winner; hindered by being hampered on Good Friday last time; 0-15 on turf but ran creditably (finished second) in this race last year; place claims off same mark. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner but she's on a long losing run and was beaten 9l on Goodwood reappearance (6f, good) 17 days ago; that was a Class 3 but she needs to leave that form a long way behind on this drop back in trip. |
20/1 |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Course scorer who largely ran well without winning in 2025; she has a good record fresh too, so needs considering on her seasonal return. |

30th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

Hasn't won for a while but runner-up the last twice and only narrowly failed to reel in Marching Mac over C&D last time; has a 10lb pull on the winner; major player. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Ready win in a 5f Class 4 handicap at Salisbury in May; struggled since and hopes appear to rest on the return to 6f sparking a full revival. |

25th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Regained the winning thread at Salisbury in May, beating Lil Guff, and has seemed unsuited by sharper scenarios since; this return to a stiffer 5f looks a plus. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Returned to form with clearcut win at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last month but she was only ninth of 13 at Goodwood next time; that was a Class 3 and now drops back in grade but she's not easy to predict and others are more solid. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Tapeta specialist but he's hung right before finishing a well-held fifth at Wolverhampton (5f) in his last two starts; continues to edge down the weights but he's 0-13 on turf and has not run in this sphere since last May; others preferred. |
11/2 |

5th 7 (7) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Four C&D wins (from marks in the 60s); excuses when a closing third over C&D on penultimate start; hung right when three places (over 4l) behind Shalaa Asker subsequently; has won for Kieran O'Neill but needs everything to drop his way. |

5th 7 (4) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Not straightforward (hangs right) but these conditions suit him well and he wasn't beaten far into third here two weeks ago; one of two contenders for Scott Dixon. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Yet to build upon his pleasing seasonal debut in April, but didn't run badly when third of six over C&D (good to soft) eight days ago; 1lb lower now and Ashley Lewis claims his useful 5lb; considered. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
C&D (good to soft) winner in August 2024 who won at Lingfield (good to firm) and Ffos Las (again 5f, good) last year; couldn't repeat his win in that Lingfield event 12 days ago and this looks a warmer race than the ones he regularly contests; still not dismissed. |
7/1 |
|
5th 5 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Turned in an excellent effort when winning the corresponding race from stall 1 (14 ran) last May, flying out of the stalls and able to get to the stands' rail after one furlong; also won at Ffos Las in July and both victories were achieved off a higher mark than today's; not at best last time but his reappearance had been encouraging; should make a bold bid. |

20th Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Promise as a 3yo for Michael Bell, including a wide-margin maiden win at Lingfield (5f, AW); showed he could be competitive off this sort of mark in November 2023 but he has been absent since a disappointing run 500 days ago; gelded/changed yard since and the addition of a hood looks a good move; the absence aside, the return to turf is a concern as he was well beaten in two previous attempts. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner who is much better known as a sprinter, but won over C&D in 2022 and looked suited by return to this trip when close third here (good to soft; just behind Too Much Trevor) last week; back in action before 1lb nudge takes effect and will be fine on the faster ground; respected. |
7/2 |

3rd 8 (2) |
21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Front-runner who has gained seven of her ten career wins at Chepstow; went backwards from a sound reappearance effort at Bath (extended 5f) when last of six over a bare 5f there 12 days later but a revival can't be ruled out back at Chepstow; raced exclusively at sprint trips since 2023 but won over C&D in 2022. |
12/1 |

6th 5 (4) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Front-runner whose ten wins on turf have included two over this C&D; possibly needed her first run for 179 days when fifth of 11 here over 5.5f last time and has to be of interest now dropping back in grade. |
