1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
These conditions bring out the best in him and was taking his C&D record to 4-6 when finishing with a flourish to win a strong handicap last month; remains capable of further progress and although he has something to find at the weights, a bigger concern is the prospect of a tactical event. |
3/1 |

1st 2 (4) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Better on AW than turf and his C&D record reads 31511 (including this race 12 months ago); endured a troubled passage at Newcastle on his most recent AW run and still looked in form; no show in the Stewards' Cup but this is altogether more suitable; Oisin Murphy rides for the first time. |
4/1 |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Capable off this mark and he didn't enjoy a clear run at Newcastle five weeks ago (6f); all his best form has come on AW though and nothing in his turf record suggests he's the answer. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran who showed his best form for a while when winning at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in February; below his best on turf at Goodwood 19 days ago but cannot be overlooked back on AW. |
12/1 |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Kickstarted 2026 with all-the-way 6f Wolverhampton win in February; up 2lb but this veteran C&D winner can't be discounted after a break. |
6/1 |

3rd Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

Four wins in 2025, including over C&D and off this mark; made a pleasing return from 142 days off when fourth over C&D five weeks ago; can take a step forward today. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Just one win on grass (6f, good to firm) and that was over two years ago but he kept on well when beaten 4l at York in July in his latest turf run over 6f and is now 7lb lower; not dismissed in this lower grade. |
16/1 |

12th 4 (9) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Course winner who comes here on the back of a respectable seventh of 12 in 6f Southwell handicap 19 days ago; possibilities from a falling mark. |
12/1 |
|
7th 5 (7) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time Tapeta winner whose AW mark has eased after three no-shows on turf and who's now 1lb lower than when successful at Newcastle last winter; currently 3-10 for Billy Loughnane and a better showing can be expected. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Wind surgery last winter helped and he has two wins and a close third to his name in three runs over C&D; boasts a good record fresh too, so there are reasons for optimism back from a summer break. |
10/1 |

9th 3 (3) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't get home over 7f at Southwell in March and appreciated the drop to 6f when winning there 20 days ago following a short break; both wins on turf have been on good to soft, and has claims off this 3lb higher mark. |

Ripon winner in June (6f, good) and then ran well off this 4lb higher mark at Salisbury; seemed to run a bit flat last time but he has a big effort in him. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice last autumn and latest was over C&D; 0-10 since that last success but she's been placed twice over C&D and didn't get any luck when favourite here (fifth of nine) last Monday; could be a big factor if she gets the breaks this time and she's in the mix off a dangerous mark; blinkers removed. |

C&D winner last October; 0-8 this year but there have been some good runs along the way, including over C&D in July; well beaten on turf last time but can do better now dropped into a Class 5 with blinkers tried. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Chelmsford winner off 5lb higher this time last year; boasts a fair record overall at this trip on the AW and a return to form wouldn't surprise; may well be dropped in and ridden for luck from stall 9. |
10/1 |
|
8th 2 (1) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Beneath his last winning mark (5f AW) and his second run back from a break was more encouraging, as although only eighth at Kempton he wasn't beaten too far (6f) from an unpromising position; capable of racing prominently, which would be helpful from stall 1, and could be interesting; soft ground would be a concern. |
6/1 |
|
8th 6 (12) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Scored off this mark at Chelmsford (5f) last July; should be sharper following a run at Newmarket last month and steps back up to 6f; not out of this. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Confirmed trailblazer who has won 13 races in his career (six on AW), but has finished out of the frame in all six starts over C&D; blinkers go on for the first time on his 86th start; others preferred. |
11/1 |
|
8 (5) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
One of the faster sprinters in training and he belatedly got off the mark for the year with a front-running win at Wolverhampton 17 days ago; 6lb rise against stronger opposition could find him out. |
8/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Trailblazing sprinter who got no peace up front when beaten favourite in a Racing League handicap last time; ran a stormer the time before at Haydock and should give it a good shot from stall 3; has form here. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Five-time AW winner (6f/7f), who scored at Kempton in January and at Chelmsford in March; no joy in last four runs but he's had another wind operation and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid on this return to AW. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 (10) |
4th Aug 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has only ever placed once on turf, that coming over C&D (good to firm) a year ago, and isn't as good as on the AW but he is handicapped accordingly; didn't look to have any excuses here six weeks ago and today's slower ground may not be optimal. |
6/1 |
|
4 (4) |
21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two front-running wins on Polytrack earlier in the year and ran as well as could have been expected in better company last time; currently rated a stone lower on turf (for a good reason) but did go close over C&D last July off a 4lb lower mark. |
10/1 |
