30th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Can front run; made all at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm; flag start) in July before another good effort when second of four at Ffos Las (2m, good); needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Chester (1m6f, good) 18 days ago; blinkers applied. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Seemingly aided by cheekpieces on recent outings and got off the mark with front-running success at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm; front pair well clear) in July, on ninth start; beaten at short odds over 2m since but still ran well, and remains one to be interested in. |

Seemingly aided by cheekpieces on recent outings and got off the mark with front-running success at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm; front pair well clear) last month; 8lb higher here but could still have more to offer over today's longer trip; respected. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Got off the mark on his third run over hurdles, following wind surgery, in a maiden over C&D (good) last month, without his usual cheekpieces (also absent today); makes handicap debut and there should be more to come. |

1st 2 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Fair Flat racer who made quite promising stable/hurdle debut when fourth at Huntingdon (2m, good) in November; dropped out of contention tamely at Southwell (2m, good to soft) later that month but was given a wind op afterwards and is back on better ground here; could have a say. |
8/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
2-11 on the Flat for Ed Walker, the latter win gained in April (1m6f, good to firm; RPR 77); ground slower than good would be new to him but he can be competitive here if he takes well to hurdling at the first attempt. |

21-race maiden (Flat/hurdles); runner-up over this C&D in January off a 7lb higher mark than today's but he's struggled since (Flat/hurdles); returns to the Flat with the tongue-tie discarded. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Best form on AW but has won on turf and it was his best effort on grass when third of six at Newbury (2m, good; plugged on) three weeks ago; each-way shout. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (8) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark. |
25/1 |

8th 4 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip. |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Scored at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last October and has been placed four times this year; may have found the drop back in trip against him when fifth of six at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) last month; cheekpieces return to replace blinkers but he may find this trip on the sharp side. |
5/1 |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
One win from 14 races; three seconds from five starts this year, beaten a head at Newmarket (2m, good to firm; made most) 18 days ago in first-time cheekpieces; they are now replaced by blinkers; last time he raced over shorter than 1m6f was in June 2025 but this isn't a strong race; good chance. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Generally struggled at big prices in bumpers and it's been a similar story in four Flat runs; started his handicap career with a heavy defeat at Salisbury (1m6f) last month and needs a transformation on this switch to AW. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Polytrack winner who scored twice over this trip on turf last autumn; wasn't helped by being pestered for the lead when a well-held third of four at Salisbury (1m,6f, good to firm) last month, but still 3lb above his last winning mark; more will be needed. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Gained his most recent success in C&D event (good) last October; best effort this term when going close at Salisbury (1m4f) on penultimate start; not disgraced in higher grade here latest; fighting chance returned to Class 5 and back up in trip. |
13/8 |

4th 6 (5) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |

Perhaps better over further and when going close over C&D a month ago he was edged out by a 66-1 chance who wasn't in much form before that race and has disappointed since; may need a tad more here, though Taryn Langley takes off a handy 5lb. |

10st 11lb |
Ran well for second at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last month; failed to back it up when third of four at Newbury a fortnight ago; Simon Walker booked but others are more appealing for the win. |

3rd 2 (3) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Course winner; ran his best race of the season when narrowly pipped at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last month; 1lb rise is manageable but a tactical race wouldn't play to his strengths. |
5/1 |

2nd 1 (5) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Four-time course winner (1m-1m2f) but his last success was over 2m on AW last March; on dangerous mark but he's returned from a lengthy absence with two low-key runs this summer including over C&D; bit to prove and needs to rediscover his spark. |
