5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
On a long losing run and he ended 2025 below par in 5f handicaps at Hamilton and Haydock last autumn; needs to hit the ground running after eight months off. |

7th 8 (10) |
17th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
C&D winner in 2023; landed a ninth win when scoring at Hamilton last September and finished third to Impressor there (also 5f, soft) last month; reared in stalls and weakened quickly at that venue one week later, though; career-low mark can only help. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Failed to beat a rival last time, as well as failing to maintain signs of a revival; by no means certain to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
25/1 |

9th 10 (2) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
Seems to be coming steadily back to form, fourth at Hamilton most recently; 10lb below last winning mark and looks a possible danger assuming the resurgence continues. |
14/1 |

4th 5 (1) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
8lb lower than when last successful at Thirsk (5f Class 4, good to firm; 6-4 favourite) last August; struggled this season and reared at the start when in rear throughout (behind two of these) at Ripon latest. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ideally suited by going around a left-hand bend, with his six wins coming here and at Wolverhampton; 10lb higher than for his win in this race last year and the widest draw isn't a big selling point today; cheekpieces join the hood today. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
6yo who posted career-best performance when dominating from the front over C&D (good) last month; used up energy to get across to lead from a wide draw when fifth of ten over 5f here a fortnight ago and can be treated as if still in good form. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
6yo who posted career-best performance when dominating from the front over 6f here (good) last month; 5f on ground slower than good also suits but he's not ideally drawn and recent 4lb rise demands even more from him. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Far from consistent this season but scored off just 1lb lower over C&D in May and has a fighting chance provided he's back in the same form. |
16/1 |
|
7th 6 (1) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Won a C&D handicap in April 2024 (heavy); has run mainly over 5f since; fair run in a decent 5f handicap at Carlisle last week (soft); each-way chance. |
8/1 |
|
6th 7 (10) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Hasn't been at his best since winning at Ripon early last month (5f, good); today's conditions ideal and could bounce back from good draw. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

On a lengthy losing sequence and he came in last of six in 5f handicap at Thirsk 25 days ago; others appeal more. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Regressive 5yo who has been unplaced all six starts for new stable this year; seemed to respond well to first-time blinkers when fourth at Chester (5f, good) last month, having set a brisk pace, but was well below that form (albeit from a wider draw) there three weeks ago. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was at Windsor 13 months ago but that was off 13lb higher and he finished a close third over C&D (good to firm) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he won't mind what the weather does. |
15/2 |
|
8th 4 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Windsor last April off a mark 12lb higher than today's and he took a step back in the right direction when a close-up third at Nottingham (5f) a week ago; claims if building on that now returned to the AW. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Drawn wide when winning this race 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark; not hit top gear yet in 2026 but this should be run to suit him and a revival would come as no surprise. |
8/1 |
|
9th 6 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three of his four wins on AW have been over 5f at this track; has pulled too hard to give himself a chance in his two runs this year; needs revival on return to this track. |
7/1 |
|
7th 11 (5) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up in this race last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Chester (5f, good) last July; never a threat on his reappearance at Lingfield (6f) last month but he pulled hard and this drop back in trip is a positive; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if he gets the breaks. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won off 4lb lower at Chester (5f, good) last July and perhaps unsuited by softer going in two starts since; only had 12 races and couldn't dismiss. |

9th 10 (10) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |

Successful over 5f at Chester (5f, good) last July; also went close on his 2025 reappearance which provides hope that he may be ready to roll after seven months off; drawn widest. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |

Wildly inconsistent gelding who's drawn wide back down from 6f; little room for manoeuvre off this mark and it's hard to know what to expect as usual. |
25/1 |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Can blow hot and cold but he popped up in a 5f handicap here last month and ran creditably from stall 1 at Chester ten days ago (6f, good); not sure he's got much in hand of his mark though. |

18th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more. |

4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper. |
20/1 |

7th 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Won twice on AW this winter, including C&D, and he is now 2lb lower than for the second win; has gone quiet more recently though and could prove vulnerable for win purposes once again. |
12/1 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran who was recording the 14th win of his career when scoring off this mark over C&D in January; short of his best on his last four starts but the ability is there if his new rider can coax it out of him. |
16/1 |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Five-time course winner but finished behind Irish Dancer and Woodhay Whisper here last time, with no obvious excuses. |
