12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Hurtling down the weights but for good reason as this multiple winner is looking very regressive. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Fully 15lb lower than when winning at Lingfield (6f, AW) last December but this 9yo has regressed in recent months; has to turn things around. |
40/1 |

7th 6 (11) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
On a good mark, fully 14lb lower than when winning last season's Great St Wilfrid, but 0-14 at 5f and he is drawn out wide. |

3rd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Multiple winner down the years but this veteran has something to find on 2025 form; comfortably held last time, failing to back up his reappearance effort. |
25/1 |
|
7th 5 (9) |
15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Multiple winner who goes particularly well at Brighton where he was only 2l away last month (7f, good to soft) on his return from a lengthy break; might be vulnerable to younger limbs but should give his running. |
10/1 |

2 (1) |
27th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Off since September but he's proven when fresh having won at Epsom (7f, good) off 1lb higher on his reappearance last July; has won here four times from nine starts, including this race in 2022 off 3lb higher and he holds sound claims on his return. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Five-time winner, all on good to firm ground; arrives in good form but the ground looks a potential stumbling block. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Best known as a Brighton specialist but also runs this track well; needs to rebound from disappointing C&D run four weeks ago but looked in good nick when scoring at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in June; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
7th 1 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Five-time winner who has been placed in half of his six visits here, including when third in this race in 2024; carries a 5lb penalty for winning at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago but Toby Moore's 7lb claim will aid his bid to go back-to-back; considered. |

27th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time winner who can be slowly away; made a winning stable debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) off 5lb lower in January and wasn't beaten far when fourth at Chelmsford (7f, AW) last time; up in grade now back on turf and this smaller field probably isn't ideal for him due to his hold-up style, but he holds place claims. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Eight C&D wins, the most recent off current mark in August; not in the same form since and was behind a few of today's rivals last time. |
10/1 |

5 (11) |
29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has struggled on his last three starts but always a force to be reckoned with at this track having registered an eighth win here on his last visit in August (1m, good; ridden by Oliver Carmichael); only 2lb higher. |
16/1 |
|
1 (10) |
14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Resumed winning ways at Brighton (1m) in August and not disgraced when fifth of nine in 1m Salisbury handicap 16 days ago; shortlisted. |
