3rd 3 (1) |
28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Brings good stats as he's 2-3 since wearing cheekpieces and gained those wins over C&D (good/good to firm) to take his Epsom record to 2311; respected in the retained headgear. |
2/1 |
|
4 (2) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring over C&D (cheekpieces added) last month but he finished ninth of 12 in his follow-up bid at Brighton; now drops back in grade but he's not easy to predict and comes with risks attached. |
13/2 |

9th 11 (7) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Sole run here wasn't his best at two but that was on soft; resurgent the last twice, a close third (good) followed by a stylish win (also Epsom, 8.5f; good to firm) last month in first-time cheekpieces; seems to love that track which bodes well for Brighton; back up 5lb which looks perfectly fair. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Got off the mark at Newmarket (1m, good) in June; showed the benefit of wind surgery when showing improved form when beaten a head by an unexposed sort at Newcastle (7f, AW) last month; looks sure to go close. |
11/4 |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Infrequent winner but he is effective on Tapeta and has undergone wind surgery since his latest start; not ruled out. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Only one win (14 races) but that 1m handicap in June was at this track; ran respectably next time and rallied into a close fourth of five for slowly run race on latest; needs to find extra but his tongue-tie (worn two and three starts back) is restored and new trip now looks worth a go. |

His sole success from 15 starts came over C&D and he didn't run badly at Wolverhampton on his penultimate run (6f); disappointed at Wolverhampton last week though and others have stronger claims. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Looked as good as ever when winning at Lingfield (1m, AW) on seasonal debut in April and again ran well over that C&D last month; didn't fire when back on turf recently (restless in stalls) but has form at this track and enters calculations. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has a consistent record here (32142132224) and has shown enough since returning on the AW in April to suggest he remains in form; should go well. |
6/1 |

2nd 1 (3) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well suited by switchback tracks and took advantage of a handy mark when winning on his C&D comeback in April; found life tougher off his revised mark in better company here last time but this is more his speed back down 2lb. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Most of his best form, and sole win, is on the AW, but he would come right into this reckoning if able to reproduce a good third of 14 at Newbury last summer when 11lb higher; however, he wasn't in the same form in two subsequent runs there, nor back on the AW last time. |
4/1 |
|
7th 2 (6) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Better record on Polytrack than turf and the handicapper's given him every chance, with him now 3lb lower than when not beaten far as favourite over C&D in January; looks set to go well back on the AW. |
7/2 |
|
4th 3 (11) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has a stronger record on AW than on turf but produced best effort in this sphere when third off 7lb higher over C&D last June; good chance if that form is repeated. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Veteran who dipped into a seller for his latest win, at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in July; current handicap mark is workable but his AW strike-rate is 0-13 and he needs to rebound from two down-the-field runs. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well handicapped on his wins at Bath (1m2f) and Epsom (8.5f) last year, but he hasn't threatened back on the Flat in his last two starts; needs to raise his game and it would be a concern if rain arrives (all wins have been on good/good to firm). |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Pretty consistent on the Flat and over hurdles this year and has dropped 1lb since his recent fourth at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm); visor (worn for last four races) is left off here; probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Scored over 8.5f here (good) last summer and kept on for respectable fourth at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) on latest Flat start in May; returns to this code on a workable mark and after a recent second over hurdles; likely contender. |

Five-time AW winner, the latest in December (1m3f, Polytrack) off this mark; her turf form is less convincing though and she needs to raise her game. |

11th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |

24th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |

Five-time AW winner at up to 1m4f; seemed unsuited by the drop back to 8.5f at Epsom most recently but remains a maiden on turf and current mark looks difficult. |

3rd 2 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Best known as a Brighton specialist but also runs this track well; needs to rebound from disappointing C&D run four weeks ago but looked in good nick when scoring at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in June; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
7th 1 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Five-time winner who has been placed in half of his six visits here, including when third in this race in 2024; carries a 5lb penalty for winning at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago but Toby Moore's 7lb claim will aid his bid to go back-to-back; considered. |

10st 0lb |
Ran well for second over C&D on his seasonal return in June and went one better at Sandown (1m, good to firm) 31 days ago; found little off the bridle when well beaten at Salisbury on Friday; would have a point to prove if turned out quickly. |

Returned from seven months off with a good second at Brighton and went one better at Sandown four weeks ago (both 1m on good to firm); 4lb rise manageable and Simon Walker a positive booking. |
3/1 |

1st 7 (11) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Patchy campaign last season but he's 2lb lower than when winning at Newbury (1m, good) last May and reappeared with a good second at Brighton (1m, good to firm) last month; in the mix if backing that up. |
