26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Course winner (extended 1m3f) on last April's reappearance; ended that campaign with some lesser efforts but he returns on a feasible mark and can't be discounted. |
8/1 |
|
5th 8 (5) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Five-time turf winner, the latest over an extended 1m3f at Bath in April; finished second in four of his next five starts but his form has dipped the last twice; should be fully effective on AW and he's one to consider. |
6/1 |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 11y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Well behind Harlington on the AW last time but has a far more convincing record on turf and had been running well. |

11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Three wins here over the extended 2m in recent times, latterly off 2lb lower; the return to Tapeta will suit, off the back of two ordinary efforts, but others make greater appeal. |
14/1 |

5th 5 |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Looked as good as ever when keeping on well for narrow win at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) in March but his latest AW run was disappointing and his turf strike-rate is modest (1-15); others preferred. |
10/1 |
|
9th 1 (1) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Bounced back from Chelmsford flop (1m6f, Polytrack) to win at Wolverhampton (2m, Tapeta) last time; his last three wins have come there but he ran well on his previous AW outing here and is entitled to respect. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Front-runner who came second twice at Bath (11.6f/1m2f, firm) last month; subsequent lesser effort there is probably best overlooked (slowly away after anticipating start), and she can give this a good shot. |
4/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
In-form mare whose record at Bath features wins in 2024/2025 and a couple of second-place finishes (over 11.6f/1m2f) since returned to turf from AW, the penultimate occasion behind Moon Over The Sea; weighted to reverse the placings; good chance. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 7 (5) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Below her best on the AW this winter but she returned to some form when runner-up here at around 1m4f on Monday; that was her first start for 77 days and this dual course winner should have no issue with the drop back in trip. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Back in excellent form after 12 months off and landed 1m6f handicap at Bath nine days ago; up 3lb but this gutsy front-runner is not taken lightly. |
3/1 |
|
1st 3 (5) |
22nd May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won on fast ground last May at Salisbury (1m6f) and Bath (11.5f); tailed off later that month but his recent reappearance here was a step back in the right direction; each-way claims if he's come on from that run. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Better than ever returned to turf last May when winning on fast ground at Salisbury and here; on a realistic mark for this belated return to action. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Nine-time course scorer, most recently last August, but this seasonal debut doesn't look the time to catch him; has never scored when fresh. |
7/1 |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
All nine wins have been here and slow ground not ideal on his last two visits; has a competitive show in him off this mark. |
16/1 |
|
6th 4 (11) |
14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Nine-time course winner, on ground ranging from firm to good to soft; still on workable mark after 3lb rise for last month's C&D success and encountered traffic when only ninth on heavy ground here 11 days ago but, nevertheless, he'd appeal much more on a quicker surface. |

27th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Still to get her head in front and she came in last of eight in 11.5f Bath handicap 13 days ago; easy to look elsewhere. |

14th May 2025 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-12 (Flat/hurdles); third off 4lb higher at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm) last August but failed to build on that over 2m+ in her following three starts; drops back in distance on her first start since November. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Kept on for third in recent selling handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, good; behind Velvet Vulcan), making the frame in his fourth consecutive Flat race, but career strike-rate now stands at 0-31. |
12/1 |
|
8 (6) |
8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-24 on the Flat but he wasn't running badly in this sphere prior to finishing tailed off over hurdles three weeks ago; not ruled out from this career-low mark with Oisin Murphy taking over. |
4/1 |
|
9th 6 |
17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-24 on the Flat and 0-5 over hurdles; not seen over jumps since 38l defeat in 2m2f handicap here in October and his tendency to race too freely is always a worry. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Veteran who is suited by this track and seems very versatile regarding trip/ground; soundly beaten over 2m1f here yesterday, though, and will probably find this race too competitive. |
66/1 |
|
9 (14) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Veteran who is suited by this track and seems very versatile regarding trip/ground; yet to strike form this season, though, and needs to prove he still has what it takes. |
40/1 |
|
10 (8) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Veteran of 133 races; three of his seven wins have been at this track (from 39 visits) but he has not won anywhere since July 2023 and has not been competitive this season, including two runs here. |
