2nd 2 (10) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was at Windsor 13 months ago but that was off 13lb higher and he finished a close third over C&D (good to firm) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he won't mind what the weather does. |
15/2 |

8th 4 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Windsor last April off a mark 12lb higher than today's and he took a step back in the right direction when a close-up third at Nottingham (5f) a week ago; claims if building on that now returned to the AW. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Notched a third win over C&D earlier in the month; that race rather fell into his lap, though, with the leaders going off too hard, and he'll find today's company tougher off a 6lb higher mark; not disgraced, having made late headway, here (6f) on Sunday. |
4/1 |

5th 6 (10) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Multiple course winner, the latest 18 days ago when he was far too strong for five rivals over 5.3f (good to firm); up 6lb in a deeper race but still feasibly weighted. |
13/2 |
|
1st 3 (7) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to form with narrow win at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) in June; remains on workable mark after 3lb rise and is very well suited by this track (four-time C&D winner) but managed only fifth of six at Bath (5f, firm) three weeks ago and has become unreliable. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
1lb out of the weights, but still 6lb lower than when gaining his sixth course success in this race last year; 0-19 since, but placed nine times and has winning form on soft ground; may be worth chancing. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 10 (6) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Six-time course winner who's been on the downgrade for some time and is on a losing run of 18; remains consistent enough but, like stablemate Marisitta, has a job on with Arnaz on the same terms as last Sunday. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Be An Angel didn't get the best of runs when this gelding was hot on her heels here last month; found wanting in a classified race since then; looks vulnerable. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sole win was in 2023 but she's lightly raced for a 6yo; ran on late over 5f here two months ago when making AW debut after nearly a year off; if sharper for that, and returning to her winning trip, she should go well. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (8) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Winless since 2023 and she's been off the track since beating one in 5f Pontefract handicap 11 months ago; needs to hit the ground running on her Tapeta debut. |
9/1 |
|
2 (3) |
8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 0-8 in handicaps but has some encouraging form, notably close second over C&D in April; disappointing favourite back here last time and needs to rebound. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Nothing like the force of old but rediscovered some form and ran well from the front when close third in Nottingham classified (5f, good to firm) last month; has possibilities if in similar mood again here. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Still capable of running up to high-80s RPRs just two years ago, but has offered nothing in two outings this term and remains winless around anywhere as galloping as Nottingham; cheekpieces return. |
12/1 |
|
10th 11 (3) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
His last win was in April 2024, which is probably the bottom line; three wins and five seconds from 12 races at Windsor also catches the eye but he was a soundly beaten last at Leicester on reappearance three weeks ago. |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed his fifth win at this venue when scoring on the turf track (5f, good to firm) in May; has held his form since, apart from when his saddle slipped at Windsor, and holds place prospects at least. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 7 (7) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Better known for his AW exploits but he has been in good order on turf this summer; closely matched with Twirler on latest C&D run. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Scored at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in May and probably bettered that performance when very close second at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month; recent Windsor run is best overlooked (saddle slipped); slightly out of the weights but the return to 6f won't be a problem; probably won't be far away. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven wins include two at this track over 6f (good to soft/good to firm) but her last success came in October 2024; beat only one rival home on her reappearance here over 6f last month and now drops back in trip on her return to classified company. |
10/1 |
|
6th 6 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Mudlark who starts her campaign off a lowly mark; she has a nine-month absence to overcome, however, and that hasn't been the time to catch her in previous seasons. |
14/1 |

6th 6 (8) |
14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Effectively 11lb lower than when winning on heavy ground at Windsor (5f) last October but placed on only one of her nine appearances this year and evidently not as good as she was. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Previous C&D winner but has not fired in three turf runs this year; back on her last winning mark and needs to rediscover her best form. |
8/1 |
|
8th 5 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

All three wins have been over 6f; hasn't fired on either of her starts this year but well handicapped if she can return to form. |
5/1 |

6th 7 (7) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Raced on unfavoured part of the track and eased once beaten at Goodwood two days ago on seasonal debut (effort best forgiven); can enter calculations on plenty of 2025 form, including a May success (beat Strike) over C&D. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won seven in a row over 6f on AW at start of this year but has been safely held on all four turf starts (5f-6f) since returning from a break in July; sure to be suited by this return to Tapeta but will needs to be back in prime form to overcome combination of wide draw and current AW mark. |
20/1 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |

33/1 |

11th 6 (12) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Rattled off a seven-timer on the AW earlier this year; rated lower on turf but he's failed to beat a rival at Chester (5f, good) in his last two starts and is now 1-15 on grass; opposable. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D wins in two of his last three starts, the latest his stable debut 16 days ago when he wore a tongue-tie for the first time; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. |
12/1 |

1st 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Landed a second C&D win for Michael Attwater when taking a 0-50 classified event in June; below that level at a short price here a week later and is tried in a first-time tongue-tie for his new yard back into handicap company. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |

Finds winning races difficult (2-25) but both wins have been over C&D, the latest in a similar contest (good to firm) last Tuesday; carries a 5lb penalty but looks sure to run his race. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
8yo who is without a win since August 2024; however, he was beaten just a nose in a classified here (5.7f, firm) in July and 6f stretched him at Windsor last time; this seven-time course winner could play a leading role back here and back down in trip. |
13/2 |

7th 11 (5) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Pipped by Jackie Brown in a 5.7f classified at Bath last time, with Sisters In The Sky finishing strongly another nose back; that was so nearly his first win for two years (8-81 overall) but coming fourth in 2022 was easily his best result from five visits here. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 8 (6) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Third in similar C&D race to this (good; first run since rejoining this stable) in June and also ran well when third in recent 5f handicap here (firm) but is not one to rely upon heavily and sometimes races too freely. |
