28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three front-running C&D wins between last May and January; below best on last two starts but he might just have needed the recent sharpener following a break and can't be passed over too lightly. |
3/1 |
|
10th 6 (6) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer with three C&D wins on his record, including on his penultimate start in January; not so good behind Okami five days later; has tended to come on for the run after breaks in the past. |
10/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Likes to lead and stayed in front over C&D earlier this month, his second win here this year; up 4lb but would be dangerous if not overly pressed up front. |

3rd 8 (1) |
21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Seven-time winner; style of racing leaves him a hostage to fortune and he has met trouble in two of his three runs for Ben Haslam; has the ability to win at this level and stall 1, while not optimal, should at least keep him clear of some of the traffic. |
9/2 |
|
4th 10 (5) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Seven-time winner with bucketloads of placed efforts to his name; both runs for this yard have been respectable and the return of cheekpieces is a definite plus. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Still a maiden but there isn't much between him and Arlington on C&D form in October and although he was beaten before the 6f trip became an issue at Chelmsford in February he can't be ruled out on return from a break. |
15/2 |
|
6th 10 |
8th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Maiden; often thereabouts in 5f handicaps on turf and the AW but he has ground to make up on Forever Noah on their recent 5f run here and the return to 6f, for the first time since his debut, raises a big question. |
7/1 |
|
4th 9 (1) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Longstanding maiden but he's been in the first three on 14 occasions; ran respectably in a classified on his return from a break over C&D two weeks ago and holds place claims once again. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Only 1lb higher than when beating Colors Of Freedom over C&D last month; solid placed efforts on his last two starts (caught wide over C&D latest) and he should remain competitive. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 5 (7) |
16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a similar race over C&D for Joanna Mason last month before again not looking to see out 6f next time; too many near-misses for comfort but holds similar claims to Captain Kinsella on Newcastle running four days ago. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Again didn't look to see out 6f last time and is best judged on his previous 0-50 Wolverhampton victory; too many near-misses for comfort prior to that but will rightly be popular. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 5.5f classified on the first of his two visits to Brighton (last summer) but ran poorly in the other; latest start was easily his best in 2026 but that was in March and he's inconsistent. |
14/1 |
|
4th 6 (4) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Capable at this level but he hasn't been firing on all cylinders in 2026; has won over C&D, and when ridden by Paddy Bradley; market can guide. |
10/1 |
|
8th 8 (2) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 5f/6f winner in this grade in 2025 but he has twice failed to build on a solid C&D sixth in early January, just eighth of 11 in 7f Lingfield classified event two weeks ago; he needs to take a big step forward. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ended a long losing run in this race last year but he's 0-15 since and has been hard to predict; now 3lb lower than for that last success but he faded at Doncaster last time and he comes with risks attached. |
11/2 |
|
8th 8 (9) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a losing run when the comfortable winner of a 5f handicap at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark; he was returning from a short break when fourth of 13 at Pontefract 17 days ago and that effort can be upgraded as he was wider than ideal as the field turned for home; each-way shout. |
8/1 |
|
4th 14 (5) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Hold-up sprinter who is on the same mark as when seeing off nine rivals at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm); in and out afterwards but the return of blinkers should help now back from 138 days off. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Sprung a surprise at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in February and made it three wins from his last four starts when winning over this C&D 26 days ago; runner-up has won since and this 6yo is a contender off this 3lb higher mark. |
5/2 |
|
1st 7 (7) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Made it two wins in his last three starts in 7f handicap at Chelmsford 16 days ago; up 4lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood. |
6/1 |
|
1st 11 (7) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 5lb |
Looks one for in-play punters as the only time he has dominated from the outset resulted in sole success, which was gained at Chelmsford (1m; set fast pace) on penultimate start; unexposed under such tactics. |

6th 8 (8) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Knocking on and been patchy since returning from a break, finishing well behind Kipp Kelly at Wolverhampton, then behind Desert Master here six days ago; others are more likely. |
16/1 |

6th 9 (6) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Welcome signs of a revival when third over C&D in January but failed to fire at Wolverhampton three weeks ago (drawn wide); not a solid option. |
