14th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 44y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Four-time winner who last scored over 1m2f at Windsor (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in July; runner-up over C&D in October, however, and confirmed this trip holds no fears when second again at Nottingham (also good) 18 days ago; player. |

2nd 6 (2) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Had 1m2f wins last April (here), June and July; kept his form well, including when second in October on his only attempt at 1m6f; recent reappearance was another creditable show here and he has each-way claims. |
4/1 |
|
4th 8 (4) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Generally consistent gelding who won three times last season including on his reappearance over C&D (good; 3-1) last April; still looks on a workable mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid after 166 days off. |

3rd 7 (8) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Four wins for two previous yards came from the front, three round undulating courses; finished last season on a downswing, though, and sold for 1,000gns since; there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh. |
12/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Campaigned on turf this term for new yard; had a good spell in June/July but has proved disappointing in two starts since; beaten favourite in last two AW attempts and now 3lb higher. |
8/1 |

8th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Prominent racer; won 1m2f handicaps at Leicester and Epsom in midsummer and ran well in his hat-trick bid here in July; weak in the market and ran poorly at Newmarket 24 days ago (raced too freely); more to prove on ground slower than good. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
1lb lower than for his last win; two runs back from wind surgery haven't been his best and he is taking on some potential improvers today. |
14/1 |
|
5th 7 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Close third in this in 2024 and he enhanced a good C&D record when winning last year's edition (good to firm) from this mark; placed on his next four starts and had a soft-ground excuse on final start that term; had wind surgery ahead of a quiet comeback at Newbury three weeks ago but no surprise if this day has been ringed in his calendar. |
7/1 |
|
10th 12 (3) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Suited by good/firmer and has won four 1m2f handicaps, the latest last May; he seemed in need of the run when 28-1 in this race the time before, so that's a concern on today's first run since his second wind surgery. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Right back to form under William Pyle on his last two starts, finishing second to Double Parked over C&D before winning over 1m2f here 18 days ago; handles good to firm and soft ground and should be thereabouts. |
11/2 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was 14 months ago but he responded well to cheekpieces when going close off a reduced mark here (1m, good to firm) last month; kept on well in that race and he's respected off only 1lb higher on this step back up in trip. |
11/2 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Slipped down the weights and he wasn't beaten far in a Class 4 at Windsor six weeks ago; tongue-tie worn there now left off and new cheekpieces are deployed; one to consider. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Two of his six wins have come over C&D; can go well fresh so his low-key return to action at Yarmouth last month was disappointing; down in class and has the assistance of Henry Callan in the saddle so he could leave that well behind. |
11/2 |
|
10th 10 (3) |
11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Course winner who had irregular form in 2025 but he only just failed on his reappearance at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last spring and he's 4lb lower now; on the cards that he'll return with a good effort. |
14/1 |
|
7th 8 (6) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Started this season with a near-miss at Windsor (1m2f) in April but comfortably held since; bit to prove, including on the AW. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
0-14 on Flat turf and a beaten favourite at Musselburgh two weeks ago; his hurdles record (2-7) is better but he had no obvious excuse when fifth to Indemnity at Plumpton (33-1) last month; others appeal more. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won on Kempton AW (1m3f; not proven over this far) in February and latest start was up with his best hurdles form; 0-13 on Flat turf but that includes five seconds. |
7/2 |
|
5th 5 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Won twice early-season and better again when second in classy small-field races at Cheltenham and Wincanton, the latest a Grade 2; returned from a break with a win on the AW so his run in the Morebattle at Kelso goes down as disappointing; the return of a hood is no bad thing; enjoys good ground. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Fine on Tapeta but has done most winning round Chelmsford, always over 1m2f; generally consistent in recent times, without looking quite as good, and has to prove his stamina going beyond 1m4f for the first time; the usual headgear comes off. |
10/1 |
|
1 (4) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Much more exposed than some of these and usually runs over 1m2f but gave pretty good account when fourth in valuable Chelmsford handicap (1m2f) a fortnight and is 1lb lower here; could have a say. |
4/1 |
|
9 (5) |
7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Formerly a front-runner but more often held up these days; finished a 4l seventh at Wolverhampton in last two starts but he's 5-9 at Chelmsford and was runner-up over C&D in June; has possibilities back at this track and he needs a close look with Hollie Doyle booked. |
