1st 7 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive mare who scored for the eighth time when beating 18-runner field at Newmarket (7f, good) at last month's Craven meeting; might need some luck in running if the field gravitates to the stands' side but thoroughly deserves this first crack at a Pattern race, with the ceiling of her ability probably yet to be reached. |

1st 6 (14) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Steady improver who scored three times last year, including here (1m) in May and on the July course (7f, also good to firm) two months later; also landed valuable big-field fillies' handicap at York which bodes well for this test; should be ready to roll on this return and she's much respected. |
9/1 |

5th 1 (11) |
25th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
The winner of seven of her 18 starts, three of the wins coming this year (including both here and the July course); finished with a flourish to beat 17 rivals at York's Ebor meeting five weeks ago and a 5lb rise doesn't look excessive; drying ground in her favour but dropping to 6f asks a new question of her; this is likely to be well run, however, and she's a contender. |

8st 9lb |
Both wins came over 1m2f in the spring of 2024, including here; 0-18 subsequently and he's still 7lb above his last winning mark, but he goes well fresh (has won after a longer break) and finished third on his comeback in this race last year; likely to be competitive. |

3rd 4 (8) |
1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Has run some really good races in defeat this season, including over C&D on good/good to firm; latest soft-ground Ascot second (Grizedale third) shows he's still in form but he's been beaten on his last 17 starts and suspicion he might find at least one too strong again. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Took full advantage of the drop into Class 4 company when readily seeing off five rivals at Redcar last week (1m, good to firm); penalised in a deeper race but he still commands serious respect. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins last season, over C&D in April (good) and off 1lb lower over 1m1f at York in June (good to firm; beat Cosmos Raj by a nose); not disgraced in two competitive handicaps this season and is the one to beat now down in grade. |
11/8 |
|
6th 13 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended last season with a good third to Man Of La Mancha over 1m1f on this course (good to firm); shaped as if retaining all his ability when seventh of 22 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster, short of room closing stages; should be spot-on with that run behind him and looks ready to strike. |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
18-race maiden but he returned to some form when third of 13 over this C&D 24 days ago, albeit he didn't help his chance by hanging left; may be able to build on that. |

3rd 3 (8) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Highly tried on occasion by Ben Brookhouse and regressed sharply last year prior to being sold for £5,000 in October; big prices and well held in four AW runs for this yard, which also saddles Havana Club; hard to latch on to unless there's been market support behind him. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Maiden; showed fairly useful form for previous yard but holds poor claims on his Wolverhampton efforts this winter for new stable. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
8yo who has been in fine form this spring, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) last month then going close at Lingfield (1m, AW) and Nottingham (1m, good); there's every chance he'll be bang there once more. |
9/1 |

2nd 2 (7) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ten-time winner split between turf and AW; his last success was at Kempton (1m) last month and he backed that up with a close third under a penalty at Lingfield (Polytrack); did well to hang in there from a wide draw last time and he's respected off same mark back on turf. |
13/2 |

3rd 1 (10) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Tended to do his winning in the past in batches, which bodes well under a 4lb penalty for last Monday's Kempton victory; well over two years snice he won off a mark this high and hasn't been at his best in two previous runs here but needs considering. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
7-24 with his last win coming when joined on the line at Ripon (1m, good; 3-1 favourite) in April 2025; struggled on AW through the winter (0-4), and was pestered for the lead, weakening to finish fifth (beaten 8l), at Ripon five weeks ago; an easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Dead-heated over C&D (good) last April and went very close at Carlisle in June; well handicapped on that form but a long way below his best on AW this year; the return to turf needs to trigger a major revival. |
16/1 |
|
8th 5 (10) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Two C&D wins on his record but he has finished down the field in three runs back from a break this year; only dropped 3lb for those defeats and he may need some more help from the handicapper. |
