30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Seven wins on the AW; consistent in the main and ran okay over the 8.6f here ten days ago, leaving the impression that this longer trip is worth another go. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Seven times an AW winner, twice over C&D; back to his last winning mark and Jack Mitchell takes over from a 7lb claimer; one to take seriously. |

Reliable sort who comes here on the back of a solid fifth of 12 in 7f handicap here 18 days ago; he ought to be in the shake-up once more. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since June 2024; now two grades and 14lb lower; placed at Redcar (7f, good) in October but disappointing since, including in cheekpieces at Southwell (7f) five weeks ago; headgear is tweaked again (visor) seeking the solution. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Record of 5-37 on turf and 2-15 on AW; folded tamely returned to this sphere last time but has a good chance off current mark provided he rebounds in first-time headgear. |

It's now 12 runs since his last victory and he came in just ninth in 7f Leicester handicap ten days ago; others appeal more. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Led close home at Chelmsford (1m, AW) in March and has held her form well since (7f-9.4f); should be fine back on turf but current mark demands a career-best performance on this first attempt at 1m4f. |
16/1 |

5th 7 (3) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
In good heart at present, winning at Chelmsford (1m, AW) last month off 6lb lower and in the money twice since; steps back up in trip and she should run well again. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Got up late to win at Chelmsford (1m, AW) last month and posted a solid effort under a penalty at Newcastle (7f, AW) 29 days ago; stepping back up in trip will suit. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Best run of her six was the Southwell fourth on second start (6f); hasn't been that threatening in three handicaps (7f/1m), latterly tried in a tongue-tie (absent here); must raise her game. |
14/1 |

18th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Well treated on the form of April's Southwell novice fourth (6f) but no threat on either handicap start latterly (7f, 1m) and tongue-tie is now reached for; switch to turf no concern on pedigree, at least. |
25/1 |

8th 1 (2) |
9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Failed to build on earlier promise on her handicap debut when seventh of 13 at Chelmsford (7f) 34 days ago; remains low mileage so she could still do better. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
His two wins for Ross Burdon have come at a lower level; disappointed at Kempton when last seen and although he is relatively unexposed at 6f, he will need a clear personal best to take this after 108 days off. |
12/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Had excuses when well held over a mile here in October but otherwise on the up for his new stable, winning 6f handicaps at Chepstow and Chelmsford; that latest success was a decisive one and he looks a strong contender despite his 5lb penalty. |

8th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Winner of ten races on the AW including three over C&D; still 1lb below his last winning mark and recent efforts suggest he remains capable of playing a part. |
6/1 |

4th 5 (5) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Ten-time AW winner; just a respectable fifth at Wolverhampton (7f) this month but remains on a workable mark and can't be ignored. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Resumed winning ways in 7f Southwell handicap in April but he beat only two home back there eight days later; this C&D scorer needs to bounce back. |
7/1 |
|
7th 2 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his third success on the AW when beating On Key over C&D eight days ago, despite hanging left; holds solid claims under a 5lb penalty (due to be 1lb higher in future). |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Can miss the break but scored twice last year, a 20-1 win at Newmarket (good to firm) in July supplemented by a Yarmouth (also 7f, good to soft) success in September; never dangerous on AW return in February but might do better this time. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (9) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three wins on turf; 0-7 on AW and often slowly away but is difficult to dismiss, having posted an encouraging effort over C&D most recently; Jack Dace takes off a handy 5lb. |
8/1 |
|
3 (8) |
22nd Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Seen to advantage (sat off the strong pace) when producing career win number three (second at Yarmouth) 34 days ago (7f); she stays this far but it's doubtful things will pan out as favourably and a 6lb rise is tough. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

6yo maiden mare; not solid on her form this winter but is one to note if the market speaks positively on this debut for John Butler. |
