20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Won off her basement mark when dropped back to 1m at Chepstow (soft) in June but has not really built on that performance since and was just a respectable fifth behind James Park Woods over C&D last month. |

Opened account off basement mark at Chepstow (1m, soft) in June, her 13th start; below that form lately but now back down to her winning mark, and will be suited by today's conditions. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Front-runner who got off the mark when winning over this C&D (good to firm) in April; runner-up on his next two starts, including here 18 days ago, and he can't be dismissed despite stepping up in class. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 6 (8) |
26th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up on reappearance at Bath (1m, good) last month then won over C&D (good to firm) before a good second at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm); arrives at the top of his game and he's a strong contender. |
15/8 |

9st 3lb |
Off the mark at the 17th attempt when making all at Leicester 12 days ago (1m2f, good to firm); up 5lb but the latest run was his first at the trip and he may be able to build on it. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Infrequent winner; did score over C&D last July off a 3lb higher mark though and his latest Ffos Las second (7.3f, good) was a sound run; each-way shout. |
7/1 |

2nd 5 (7) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |

Infrequent winner who was again turned over as favourite when never happy behind Prince Ali last time; wants a good test over this trip these days and others make greater appeal. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
This veteran hasn't tasted success for nearly three years; he ran okay over C&D two starts ago and when sixth at Ffos Las last week but more is needed. |
11/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Having his 105th career start and the last of his eight wins was in August 2023; beaten 4.5l into third at Bath last time and others appeal more. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 11 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Has plenty of C&D form to his name, including two wins, but his losing run is approaching three years; place claims but likely vulnerable for win purposes. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring at Chepstow (7f, good) in August; got pestered for the lead when down the field at Wolverhampton next time, but she's hard to predict and this looks tough from a wide draw. |
10/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Well handicapped on C&D win (good to soft) last summer but that is her only success from 18 starts and she's finished down the field in five runs this season; others preferred. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Showed some promise in early part of this year but was last of 12 in Yarmouth classified (1m, good to firm) in August and has now been unplaced all nine starts; needs combination of wind surgery and first-time tongue-tie to make a big difference. |
12/1 |

3rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Showed some ability on the AW at the start of the year, but hasn't built on it including on her turf debut at Chepstow (1m, soft) in June; still being unexposed and the drop in grade are the positives. |

9st 8lb |
Off the mark at the 31st attempt when winning a 6f handicap here (soft) last month; not quite so good twice since but he is still capable of a prominent showing. |
10/1 |

4th 2 (4) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Placed on plenty of occasions here and last month's overdue first win was also registered at this track (6f, soft); 1-32 win record can't be forgotten but he holds place prospects. |

Off the mark at the 31st attempt when beating Punchbowl Flyer over C&D nine days ago (soft; Autumn Angel fourth); 2lb worse off with the runner-up, who did best of those racing stands' side, and wouldn't be sure to confirm the placings. |

Two of four wins came over C&D but he missed all of 2023 and it's proving a long road back for this yard; up against it. |
