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. |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

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. |

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. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
No problem with fast turf but he has a much better strike-rate on AW; midfield finish at Doncaster last month didn't suggest he is the answer here. |
33/1 |
|
7th 9 (12) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Both visits here came in the summer of 2024 and yielded a third followed by a win, both at 6f on good to firm; that was his last success on turf but he scored on AW three starts back and last month's return to grass from the widest stall at Chester can be ignored; not ruled out. |
18/1 |
|
12th 1 (15) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |

His last three wins have come on the AW at Newcastle but he is effective on turf and this mark shouldn't be beyond him; stall 15 is a severe hindrance though. |

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. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Didn't get home over 7f here in March and is back off the same mark as when winning over C&D in January; off two months, but has won after much longer absences and high on the list. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Long-distance raider; AW winner but 0-11 on turf; far from disgraced when 2.25l sixth of 14 at Windsor last time (6f, good to firm); each-way chance. |
11/2 |

6th 3 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Trainer off the mark in the week with another who was formerly under the charge of Stuart Kittow; this three-time AW winner made it 0-10 on turf when some way off the front three on comeback (won first time out last season); needs a deal more. |
12/1 |
|
4th 9 (3) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Winning reappearance on AW in 2025 and there's other evidence that shows he goes well fresh; however, he's 0-9 on turf and is hard to weigh up, having left Stuart Kittow since some so-so runs in the autumn. |

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. |

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 |

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

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 |

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. |
