11st 1lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who has form figures of 11112, all at about 2m, since racing on good ground; ran well in a Kempton handicap at Christmas when last seen; improving but goes into unknown territory trip-wise and his chance also perhaps partly depends on the weather. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Completed a turf hat-trick (11.5f-2m) last month and gained the last two wins by very wide margins, latest in a match race; respected in current form, assuming she's as effective back on AW. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Refused to race on last visit here when due to contest a handicap hurdle in October; won over an extended 1m3f and 2m back on the Flat this month, scoring by 19l last week at Nottingham when 2lb well in under a penalty; that was an apprentice race so has no penalty. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Reluctant at the start on a few occasions over hurdles in recent times, refusing to jump away on one occasion; has been fine at the stalls in two runs back on the Flat, though, and like Free World is well treated under a penalty following an easy win last Tuesday. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Chased home now-useful rival in an Irish point in April 2024 (good to yielding) but his two hurdling runs this year (3m/2m) have been very underwhelming. |
50/1 |

16th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up in Irish point last April (good to yielding), form that was very well advertised under rules by the winner last season, but was pulled up when 80-1 for rules debut at Ayr (3m, soft) in January and it's hard to know what to expect from him over today's much shorter trip. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Second to progressive rival at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) in November and running well before penultimate-flight fall next time; below that level when a remote second at Hexham but he's better than that and now goes in a tongue-tie. |

2nd 3 |
9th May 2026 2m 0f 48y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Low-mileage 7yo who rebounded from disappointing handicap debut when clear second to progressive rival at Uttoxeter (2m, soft) in November and was also running well before penultimate-flight fall at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in February; one to consider. |

11st 4lb |
Doubled tally with ready win off today's mark at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in November but ended last season with some disappointing efforts (albeit in competitive races) and has more to prove than some. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |

Beat Star Of Guiting to win over C&D (good to soft) on handicap debut in November but form has gone the wrong way on his three runs since. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |
10st 7lb |
Won in good style on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in November but merely sixth there on next two starts (1m7f, good to soft) and the first-time tongue-tie needs to prompt a bigger performance. |

Poor maiden hurdler on balance who unseated her rider at the first in 2m6f Stratford handicap nine days ago; others appeal more. |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten at triple-digit odds in three Uttoxeter novice hurdles (2m-2m4f) this season; has more realistic chance to get competitive in this handicap but still needs to take a big step forward. |
25/1 |

25th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Not far away in two of her runs but the form lacks substance; 250-1 when well beaten here last month. |

Safley held in his three completed qualifying races but caught the eye when travelling well for a long way on penultimate appearance and is open to improvement on this handicap debut. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Beaten when falling on stable/hurdle debut in summer 2023 but, following a long layoff, shaped quite well before fading into fifth (not given hard time) at Warwick (2m, good) this month; should build on that effort. |

Absent since final-flight fall (had no chance at the time) on stable/hurdle debut nearly two years ago; 0-4 on Flat previously; best watched unless the market speaks positively. |
