13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf and remains on a career-high mark, so seems up against it; however, consistent record (12233) at Windsor includes a good effort (neck second) in this contest last year; solid contender back here. |
5/1 |

6th 7 (3) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Steadily progressive since handicapping and it was a personal best when landing 9.5f AW handicap in April; back on turf with solid third of ten off this career-high mark at Windsor (1m, good to firm) one month later and he may still be capable of better. |
7/2 |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Prevailed by a neck at Wolverhampton (9.5f) last time for a fifth AW win; upped in grade but receives weight all round and is a solid contender, with C&D form figures reading 1223. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 6f handicap at Kempton in January and he has run several good races since, notably a narrow defeat back at Kempton two weeks ago; Billy Loughnane retains the ride; as this 5yo showed at Ascot in May, he's a strong contender back on fast turf. |
5/2 |

2nd 5 (8) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner in January off a 1lb higher mark than today's and he's posted some good efforts since, including when fifth of 18 in a 0-80 at Ascot in May; beaten about 3l when sixth at Goodwood (7f, soft) 25 days ago and now drops in grade. |

Win here last August (6f) came off 2lb lower; several good runs this year, including in a big field at Ascot four weeks ago, but others look stronger for win purposes. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Boasts a decent record in handicaps round here (two wins and two seconds from six starts) and ran better than his final position suggests over C&D from a wide stall two weeks ago; one to consider. |
12/1 |
|
9th 3 (9) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't get home at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month, but his record in handicaps around here reads 21412, his latest win coming over this trip in November after six months off; still just 1lb higher and respected; stable also runs Bungle Bay. |
6/1 |

5th 2 (5) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Resumed from six months off with a 7f Wolverhampton handicap win in November and backed it up with a good second of seven there last month; this C&D scorer must enter calculations. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Six-time winner, including twice on Polytrack at Lingfield, and her first two runs of the campaign were encouraging; below that level on turf last time but she is the type to bounce back. |
12/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won over C&D (good) last summer and has run well on the AW here in her last three outings; still 3lb above her highest winning mark, but ought to put up another bold show. |
11/2 |

4th 4 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

Scored over 1m here in September and returned from six months off with a good fourth of 11 over C&D 16 days ago; well in the mix. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Both wins have come over C&D but latest was in January 2025; finished third over 7f here in March but he's struggled in both subsequent runs and others are preferred. |
20/1 |
|
8th 10 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins on Lingfield AW but runner-up twice from six starts here; having run so poorly back on turf last time is the big stumbling block. |
25/1 |
|
12th 9 (12) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Dual winner here on the AW over 1m; bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when third of nine here on the AW over 7f last time but he could do without the rain on this switch back to turf (well beaten in three starts on soft). |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts for Denis Coakley this season and now 0-10 overall; makes stable debut from tempting mark but needs to have been revitalised by her new regime, and is untested on turf slower than good; headgear removed. |
25/1 |

7th 9 (5) |
9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Remains winless and she was tried in a visor when ninth of ten in 1m2f Bath handicap 33 days ago; others appeal more. |
33/1 |
|
5 (9) |
6th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Eight-race maiden who's been poor the last twice, latterly in first-time cheekpieces at Windsor (1m) when coming back from a 241-day break; now tried in a visor and has plenty to prove. |
33/1 |
