3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 7lb |
Beat three rivals in this 12 months ago and has added further wins since then, on the Flat and over hurdles; only beaten a length in 1m4f handicap last time after a wind operation; not handicapped out of it by any means. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
117-rated hurdler, who regularly took travelling in her stride (three wins down at Newton Abbot); won well, making all, on the Flat at Thirsk (1m4f, soft; from 7lb lower) last September; notable candidate back to this discipline following more wind surgery. |

19th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Front-runner who enjoyed a resurgence last year, winning three times over hurdles and once on the Flat; absent since November, though, and will need to resume in peak form to have any chance off current mark. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Gained all three hurdle wins at Ludlow; kept on for second behind progressive rival there (2m, good) last month, after a break, but may not be ideally suited by this switch to a left-handed track. |
9/2 |

2nd 5 |
10th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Suited by good ground; proved resurgent when last seen five months ago, enhancing a strong C&D record that also features wins (off 2lb lower) in this race in 2023 and 2025 (faller in 2024); very solid claims kept to this scenario. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Hurdle win in May (2m, good); poor form on the Flat since August, failing to progress for handicaps on last two starts; should benefit from the step up in trip and he has run well on soft going over hurdles; risky but there are grounds for expecting better dropped in class. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won a 0-50 classified event over C&D last summer and followed up in the same race 12 days ago; not always consistent and is no certainty to back it up, going without cheekpieces this time, but holds major claims under Billy Loughnane. |

1st 4 (5) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Pulled up over hurdles on his reappearance last month but he's a dual Flat winner and his last success was in this race (good; 5-2 favourite) last year; yard is in good form and he's an interesting contender back in this sphere; cheekpieces reapplied. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over hurdles at Newcastle last November and when back on the Flat at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) in March; badly hampered and unseated over hurdles next time; still has mileage in his mark judged on old Flat form; respected. |
5/1 |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
Won easily at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) in November and runner-up to progressive winner at Catterick (2m3f, good) in December; soundly beaten behind Judicial Deference at Haydock (2m5f, good to soft) in January but he's probably better than that and he won on the AW last week; not ruled out. |

9st 5lb |
Better known as a hurdler but was having only his second start on the AW when second of six at Southwell (16.5f, Tapeta) in September; now 1lb lower and could go well. |

Form dipped last time when bidding for a hurdles hat-trick; won his last Flat attempt but that was on turf in autumn 2024; AW record is 0-7. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who came good over hurdles at the fourth attempt when winning Fakenham maiden (2m, good) in April, but he jumped and ran poorly at Plumpton last month and needs to bounce back. |

21st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |

Fair Flat racer who came good over hurdles at fourth attempt, digging deep to regain lead on run-in in Fakenham maiden (2m, good) in April; well held when fourth on handicap return in June, though, and needs more here. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Returned from break with two low-key runs this spring but looked back in good nick when third here (2m, good) last month and will be fine over today's longer trip; one to consider. |

3rd 1 |
11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
C&D winner (three ran) last July and beaten a neck over 2m4f here (similar mark) last October; below par in two starts this year, lacking fluency when beaten 36l at Bangor (2m4f, good) latest; a possible on peak form. |

23rd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won at Worcester (2m, good) last July and he ended last year with two close calls over 2m4f; well-held fifth on reappearance at Market Rasen last month but he may have needed that run and has claims if he can get back near best. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Has three wins on AW, including two here (one over C&D); tends to race freely and needs to settle better to fulfil his potential; second over hurdles two weeks ago. |
8/1 |

2nd 4 |
7th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 111y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Gained a third win on the AW in February (1m6f) but regressed in his last four starts; 0-6 as a hurdler and returns to this discipline for the first time since pulled up in a handicap last summer for Chris Grant; hardly solid but this is a poor race. |
100/30 |
|
8th 10 (4) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Successful three times (1m3f, 1m4f and 1m6f) this January/February, with the last two wins at this track; way below form on last two outings (headstrong on Saturday) but he has bounced back before. |
