16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Strong at the finish when winning a C&D handicap last May off 1lb higher; retains all his ability, in the frame on his last two start, and going back over this trip will suit; one of two runners for the stable. |

Last of five wins came at this track (7f) in May 2025 off this mark; returned to form when beaten a head here (7f, good) 12 days ago but not sure the step back to 6f for the first time since February 2024 will be in his favour. |

23-race maiden when she turned up for a handicap at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago but she won that seven-runner race, always prominent; that was a clear career best and it's striking that it was her first race at short of 6f; big player if the form is backed up. |

Took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring at Chepstow (7f, good) in August; got pestered for the lead when down the field at Wolverhampton next time, but she's hard to predict and this looks tough from a wide draw. |

Won off reduced mark at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March and has remained in good form since; only faded out of contention in closing stages when fifth over C&D (good to soft; behind Too Much Trevor and Connie's Rose) last week and ought to be better suited by today's faster ground; one to consider. |

Course regular who led close home to score over C&D (good) last month; reportedly unsuited by the soft ground when well beaten here 16 days ago; current mark is workable if she's back on song. |
