16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
In good form in novice and maiden races at about 1m on turf and AW last year but she hasn't shone in handicaps of late, including returned to AW last twice; down to a mark in the 50s for the first time but need to see more. |
10/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form in novice and maiden races at about 1m on turf and AW this time last year but she hasn't shone in handicaps of late, finding little when returned to 1m on Kempton AW in August; cheekpieces the next step. |
10/1 |

19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Ten-race maiden; failed to build upon satisfactory seasonal debut when well beaten on soft turf last month (1m2f) but today's test ought to be more suitable for her and she's on a good mark now. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four wins on turf, mainly in the spring months, and she's 0-12 on the AW; better effort at Windsor in May but never went a yard without the usual cheekpieces (back today) as favourite last time; Polytrack record wouldn't inspire. |
10/1 |

5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
2-3 at Bath, scoring over C&D on her last two visits, but she's not shown her face here since May 2024; has another career-low mark and beaten just under 3l last time, so she brings some interest. |

19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Flat/hurdle winner in Ireland; modest effort last month on debut for new stable, having been a market drifter; best watched unless the betting signals go the other way. |
14/1 |
|
3 (14) |
21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two wins in Ireland, the first in a 1m claimer (soft) last spring and latest in a handicap hurdle (2m, yielding) this April; left Gavin Cromwell for 10,000euros in May after that last run and the market can guide. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Won over 1m2f on turf last August and AW in October; also had AW form in the winter but recent efforts do not look persuasive. |
25/1 |
|
4 (3) |
2nd Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well beaten twice in a row over hurdles this spring and only fifth of seven when back on the Flat at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) a fortnight ago; however, he won over C&D last August on his sole previous course visit and is well treated on AW form as recent as February; not written off. |
13/2 |
|
1 (2) |
19th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner (from four runs), latterly off a 1lb lower mark last autumn; said to have stopped quickly when well beaten at a short price over hurdles last month, which leaves him a bit to prove, but he has one of the more experienced jockeys up. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Fair Flat racer who opened hurdling account at fifth attempt, at Plumpton (2m2f, good) last month; not quite in same form when fourth there (2m, good) a fortnight later but still enters calculations. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 |
19th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Fair 1m2f Flat scorer; progressing really well in this sphere and she cosily got off the mark over 2m2f here two weeks ago; up 3lb but this strong-travelling sort is capable of better still; leading claims. |
100/30 |
|
1st 1 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 169y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Five-time Flat winner at an ordinary level; lightly raced hurdler who ran well for a long way on her handicap debut at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) and she'd approve should conditions be drier here. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Comfortably made all over C&D and made most at Wolverhampton (8.6f; also last year); two weak finishes in 2026 and fellow front-runner Post Rider could spoil his chance here. |
8/1 |
|
7th 1 (11) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins last year, the latter on Tapeta (8.6f) in November; also effective on turf but made a low-key reappearance last month and needs that run to have brought him on. |
20/1 |
|
10th 10 (2) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Prominent racer who won two handicaps in the second half of last year, including at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in November; that was in a tight four-way finish but he's only 2lb higher on his return and still has scope for further progress; needs a close look. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
11-time AW winner including four at this track (7f/1m2f); has a patchy record this year but he came from the rear to finish runner-up in a classified event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last Tuesday; should get a decent tow into this race and he's respected back on Polytrack. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 3 (9) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner down the years; not at very best this summer but he drops into a classified race with apprentice Myla Coppins taking off a useful 7lb; may need more of a test these days. |
11/4 |

4th 3 (2) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All five of her wins have been at Bath (1m/1m2f) with four of them on soft/heavy, the latest over 1m2f in October off a 4lb lower mark than today's; third in both starts over this C&D and she's proven fresh, so is of some interest on her first start for 188 days. |
20/1 |

1st 6 (7) |
30th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |

Loves it here and beat nine rivals with ease on her latest visit in September (1m, heavy); a 5lb rise could have been worse and she stays this far. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
1m4f AW handicap win for the Gosdens and doubled his tally in soft-ground handicap at Yarmouth (1m2f) for William Knight, both in 2024; couldn't recapture that form last year and was sold for 8,000gns in October; starts out for new yard from career-low mark so worth a check of the betting. |
12/1 |
|
8th 7 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Two wins in 2024, over 1m4f (AW) and 1m2f (soft), but it's been a slog this year and he's gone into reverse since a better effort in third of 11 at Windsor (1m2f, soft) in July; the recent rain is in his favour now back on turf, though, and he's not ruled out. |
10/1 |
|
10 (8) |
5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Dual winner last year (C&D first occasion) but there's been an echo of that form only once this season, when third at Windsor on penultimate start; sinking in the weights but C&D tenth on latest dampens enthusiasm. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Lighty raced for her age and made quite promising seasonal debut when third at Lingfield (1m2f) in April but ought to have been well suited by the good to soft turf when below that form at Ffos Las (1m4f; favourite) last month and has a point to prove here. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 (4) |
4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced and her two wins have been over 1m2f on good to soft and soft; perhaps a tad high in the weights but her AW reappearance was respectable and this scenario suits her better. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
In good form on soft turf during light campaign last year, most notably when winning over today's trip at Windsor; should be okay back on Polytrack but has fitness to prove after six-month break; market helpful. |

21st Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Competitive in 1m2f handicaps on last three outings and came from off the pace to win by a nose at Yarmouth (good) on latest, getting off the mark at eighth attempt; back up 2lb and has each-way chance. |

9th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-race maiden; beaten around 5l by the same prolific winner in 1m2f amateur riders' races the last twice, latterly at Bath (firm) in early May; edging down the weights; a possible. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
5th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Six-race maiden; beaten around 4l when fourth behind Beauld As Brass at Lingfield (1m2f) 12 days ago but she ran well for a long way and has a big swing in the weights with her old rival here; could pose a serious threat if she backs up that last run. |

9st 9lb |
Strong in the market when he made a winning stable debut at Lingfield (1m4f) and he followed up off 3lb higher at Kempton (1m3f, also AW) three weeks ago; handicapper reacted by dishing out a career-high mark but this locally trained gelding is a C&D winner who needs considering in current mood. |

Gained a first win since 2024 when landing gamble for his new yard in 1m4f handicap at Lingfield in April; back up 3lb but remains handily weighted on past form so merits serious consideration. |

8st 5lb |
Scored on the Flat at Brighton (1m2f, good to soft) in October and added two hurdle wins to his tally the following month; probably still on a workable Flat mark and seems versatile regarding ground but has fitness to prove after 172-day absence. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Opened his account in similar event over C&D (good to soft) last week, scoring comfortably and taking well to Brighton at the first attempt; 5lb penalty puts him on future mark; respected. |
