12th May 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Looked rusty after seven months off when last of seven in 1m4f Wolverhampton handicap last month; this course winner can build on that now. |

Soft-ground win last summer came off a 4lb lower mark and he's entitled to need this at his age back from seven months off; trainer also saddles Bulldog Spirit. |

Won over 1m4f here in June (soft) and got upset in the preliminaries before finishing tailed off on his return visit; was running well when falling back over hurdles; entitled to be involved. |

20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 179y |
9st 12lb |
Four wins in Britain for Ian Williams at 1m2f on all sorts of ground; yet to find form for this stable; new headgear combination tried after 8.5l defeat at Fairyhouse latest. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Won four times for Ian Williams on a variety of ground, all at 1m2f (three times off a mark of 71); nothing for this yard until midly encouraging fifth at Bellewstown (1m, soft) on penultimate; didn't build on that at Sligo. |

Won four times for Ian Williams on a variety of ground, all at 1m2f; nothing for this yard at big odds until mildly encouraging run at Bellewstown last time; drops in class now and has his ground, worth a market check. |

Scored four times (at up to 1m4f) in 2025; back in good form of late, runner-up in 1m4f handicap at Newcastle two weeks ago; well in the mix nudged up 1lb. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Not at the top of her game this season but she's dropped down the weights and took a step back in the right direction when fifth at Hamilton (1m5f, good) three weeks ago; creditable third of four at Hamilton on Thursday; three wins here include one at this trip and she warrants a good look. |

Not at the top of her game this season but she's dropped down the weights and took a step back in the right direction when fifth of seven here (1m5f, good) three weeks ago; the drop back in trip could help; not ruled out. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Seemingly aided by new tongue-tie since the summer, most notably when keeping on well to score at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) 11 days ago; also suited by 2m but recent 5lb rise might leave him vulnerable in this competitive race. |
9/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Posted sound effort when second at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month but has modest strike-rate in recent years and probably won't be favoured by the forecast rain here; others have more pressing claims. |
8/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Hasn't threatened on the Flat on last two starts but this course winner didn't run badly when mid-division in a higher grade than this over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m, good) last month and today's step back up in trip is well worth a go for one who stays 1m6f on the Flat; interesting. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Dual hurdle winner at around this trip last year (Chepstow maiden and Sedgefield novice); comes into this having won a Carlisle handicap on the Flat three weeks ago (1m1f, soft); quite interesting. |
7/1 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has a record of 3-7 (Flat/hurdles) for current yard; creditable third at Newbury (1m4f, good) on seasonal debut most recently; major player off same mark, assuming he copes with this drop back in trip (stiff track and forecast slow ground are helpful in that respect). |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won this off 4lb lower last year (good) not long after a success over hurdles; lightly raced since, with a novice hurdle win in November before well beaten on handicap hurdle debut in December; major player if he's in the same form as 12 months ago and he has run well after a similar break before. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |

His five wins include two here, the second over this trip on fast ground in May 2024; versatile, though, for his latest win was over 1m1f at Goodwood last month (good to soft) and last run was when fourth over 7.5f here (soft); chance back up in trip. |

0-6 on Flat and 0-5 as hurdler but last two outings were his best in this sphere and dropped 2lb since last month's handicap hurdle debut; player. |
4/1 |

2nd 3 |
26th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
11st 5lb |
Fair maiden on the Flat; made inauspicious start to hurdling career in the autumn but last month's keeping-on fifth at Hereford (2m, soft) was quite encouraging and he's open to further improvement on this handicap debut. |
8/1 |

8th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |

Veteran who has won only twice in 56 career starts and this season's fourths were remote; 2lb out of the weights. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
10yo who's 2-55, with last win in 2022; well handicapped on some 1m6f form last term and probably needed recent run, but whether he can be competitive at this trip nowadays remains to be seen. |
25/1 |

4th 4 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Only 2-54 and a long time has passed since that second success; well handicapped on some form over 1m6f last season but he was up and down last year and he doesn't have a great record when fresh; others preferred. |

Flat winner in France and added a 1m6f handicap at Haydock last August; no impact in two runs over hurdles, though reportedly finished lame after the latest. |

17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Won on the Flat last summer (1m6f; RPR 80) but was well held when third of six on hurdling debut at Huntingdon (2m, good) last spring and has fitness to prove after 258-day absence; wears first-time cheekpieces. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Ex-German; 1-10 for this yard, the win at Haydock (1m6f) in August; well held when 25-1 in a 1m4f Racing League race on his only subsequent start, which is forgivable but one or two of these look better handicapped. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |

Pretty consistent since his Newbury win in July and perhaps found the ground too soft last time; AW winner who should run well. |

14th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |

10th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Opened his handicap account in Newbury contest (1m2f, good to firm; beat a subsequent scorer) and not disgraced in two runs since, latest on ground possibly softer than ideal; this low-mileage 4yo may do better still. |
