2nd 6 (6) |
28th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
String of short-priced defeats this year, often for Oisin Murphy; no question he's fairly handicapped back on the AW (goes well here) but he's become something of a professional loser. |
5/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Still seeking his first win of the year but he has run some good races, including a second of seven at Sandown on penultimate start; Ryan Moore booked but others may have this 6yo's measure. |
11/2 |

6th 2 (1) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Running consistently all season and the handicapper continues to give him every chance (5lb lower than when last successful); ran well on his only previous start here too but he's ultimately made a career of getting beaten at short prices. |

3rd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Found her level again lately, winning for Ethan Tindall at Ayr off 6lb lower before a lesser effort at a short price next time; been given a short break since and is fine on Tapeta, so needs factoring in to the equation. |
4/1 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
25th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner who has returned to form on her last two starts, finishing third over C&D (good) then winning at Ayr (5f, good); remains well treated on her old form and she's respected. |
9/4 |

1st 7 (11) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Thrown in on last summer's best form and there were clear signs of a revival with her third of six at Musselburgh (5f, good) eight days ago; Ethan Tindall takes off a handy 5lb and she is one to be interested in. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won over 6f on this track as 2yo; winless since that season but he's shown enough to think he can be placed to advantage off a reduced mark; had a troubled start to the season at Beverley but it's too soon to write him off; hood refitted with cheekpieces added. |
10/1 |

7th 6 (8) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Not a prolific winner; rather disappointing for this yard in a light campaign last season, best run when third at Haydock in September (5f, good; hood on for first time); no hood this time; on a good mark and could go well. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Dual winner here, latterly over C&D off 1lb lower early in the year; usually gives his running, including when not beaten far in a small field at Redcar when last seen seven weeks ago, and holds claims. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Placed three consecutive times in May-July, most recently when close second off today's mark at York (5f, good to firm); behind Democracy Dilemma when mid-pack in big field at Glorious Goodwood last week but that certainly wasn't a bad run; can make his presence felt. |
3/1 |
|
16th 22 (23) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Played his part in a strong pace last time at York yet hung around to finish a half-length behind winner Ziggy's Triton; has little margin for error off this mark and other pace influences temper enthusiasm. |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Prolific turf winner who scored at Ffos Las (5f, good) in June but he's not gone on from that and was a long way below form at Sandown last time; has something to prove again and he's 0-7 on AW; visor removed. |
9/1 |
|
7th 6 (1) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Returned to winning form at Ffos Las (5f, good) in June and his subsequent third of six at Lingfield (5f) was perfectly respectable given he is 0-7 on the AW; handles soft ground well and should play a part if things pan out from the rails draw. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a two-year losing run with a hard-fought success at Ffos Las (5f, good) in June; 3lb higher on a first AW outing since April 2024; others appeal more. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Usually leads; has been off since winning narrowly at Redcar (5f, good to firm; handles good to soft) in August but he went close on his reappearance (6f) here in April and also gave a good account when runner-up in the Class 2 on this card 12 months ago; likely contender. |
4/1 |

1st 4 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Made all off 1lb lower at Chester (6f, good) in May and wasn't beaten far on any of four subsequent starts there, the latest over 5f from a tough draw; may not be seen to quite the same effect on this straight track, though. |

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 |

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 |

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. |

Still short of his best form but last month's midfield finish at Southwell was a step back in the right direction; 2lb lower today and no surprise to see him in the shake up. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Quite prolific on the AW but sole turf win was back in August 2024 and this is his first course start; below par since running well on sand in April and he has it to prove despite dropping in the weights. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (10) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins have come over 5f but he has won three times over 6f, including around here; held lately, but he drops to this level for the first time in over two years and is 4-9 in 0-60 handicaps or lower; interesting. |
7/1 |

11th 11 (7) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Five-time AW winner who went close at Lingfield (5f) in March and ran well there over 6f in April, finishing third of five (beaten a length); never got involved there 28 days ago but he could go well returned to 6f. |

C&D scorer but his recent form is far from encouraging, beating only two in 5f Southwell handicap 17 days ago; hood goes back on; work to do. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Possibly needed latest run (when back from a break); losing sequence is mounting up but this drop in class may do the trick; interesting at this level off 11lb below last winning mark. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Needs things to fall just right for him but he is on a lowly mark and some of this summer's form gives him leading claims; wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Leicester run and he holds each-way claims again. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to make all but has become tactically versatile; all four wins have been at Chelmsford where he ran well from a wide draw 11 days ago; 0-6 on the AW here but three times a runner-up and much respected from stall 1. |
11/4 |
|
5th 9 (9) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has been a trailblazer in the past, but showed he didn't have to lead when successful off this mark on his reappearance over C&D in May (all four wins here); should appreciate the return to this venue following three lesser efforts on turf and one for the shortlist despite the outside stall. |
