16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Resumed winning ways at Wolverhampton (5f) in May and comes here on the back of a solid third of 13 in 6f Ayr handicap ten days ago; must enter calculations eased 1lb in his bid for a first turf victory. |

All seven AW wins at 5f but was never involved on Newcastle Tapeta ten days ago; 0-21 on turf and something new is needed back at 6f on grass. |

Recorded his seventh AW win when landing a 5f handicap (0-60) at Wolverhampton in April; ran as well as he ever has on turf when third of six at Ayr 37 days ago; needs more in this company. |

9st 3lb |
Both wins have been on AW and latest was 11 months ago; 0-15 on turf but he had a near-miss at Nottingham (5f, good) in July and has run respectably in two of his three subsequent runs; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck. |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Finished five places behind Arlington at Ripon 11 days ago but he met trouble in running; beaten only a head at Nottingham (5f, good) earlier in July and a repeat of that form would give him reasonable claims. |
5/1 |

7th 4 (8) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Chased home Canaria Queen in a Nottingham classified event 11 days ago and 1lb better off for a head defeat today; ran another good race at Newcastle on Saturday, never nearer than at the finish; new blinkers replace cheekpieces; has the ability to win a race of this nature but he's an habitual slow starter so will always need some luck in running. |

9st 9lb |
C&D winner; big player on her 2025 best and she was successful over C&D on her last foray into 0-50 company; absent 80 days but has run well after similar breaks in the past; withdrawn having got upset in the stalls on last intended outing. |

14th 10 (10) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won a 0-50 classified event over C&D in January and a handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) in July; only beaten just over a length off this mark back here the last twice, but she may struggle to confirm latest running with Bibendum; cheekpieces given a go. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Has a better strike-rate on the AW and he's won just once on turf in the last three years; however, he only just lost out over 5f at Catterick (good) in May and has a decent run in him if on song. |
20/1 |

4th 10 (12) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Course winner who was fourth of 13 in this last year and was a close second at Catterick last month; however, this inconsistent 9yo has been soundly beaten on his last two starts and has to leave those runs behind. |

9st 9lb |
Yet to win away from Tapeta, and while June's half-length second in a Doncaster handicap (6f, good to firm) represents his nearest ever miss on turf, it's been diminishing returns from him again since. |
8/1 |

7th 14 (11) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Three-time AW winner but 0-14 on turf; his last two runs on grass have offered hope that he can win a small race on fast ground though and he is one for the shortlist. |

9st 5lb |
All five wins have been on AW and latest was at Southwell (5f) in January; 0-12 on turf but he's on a lower mark in this sphere and is well handicapped on his close second over C&D (good) last summer; usually races prominently and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made bold bid after a short break. |

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

Three front-running C&D wins between last May and January; below best on last two starts but he might just have needed the recent sharpener following a break and can't be passed over too lightly. |

Veteran who ended a long losing run when making all at Beverley (5f, good) in May; did not repeat the form in his two subsequent outings, also under Shay Farmer, and does not seem the percentage call. |

Ended a long losing run when making all on a rare turf outing at Beverley (5f, good) in May but he dropped out on his return visit on Monday; the soft ground may have dulled his powers but he's not easy to predict and others are more solid; change of headgear. |

Dual winner here (6f/7f) in 2020; has gone close a couple of times lately, as when beaten a short head at Newcastle (5f, Tapeta) in July, but losing run up to 24; others look more solid. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
No win away from Chelmsford since September 2021; agonisingly close at Newcastle (5f, AW) on penultimate start and bang there in a classified at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) on latest, which needs respect, but this test might be a little too sharp. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winless away from Chelmsford since September 2021's 5f success here, though came agonisingly close to putting that right in a Newcastle 0-55 handicap latest; replication of the form of June's C&D third (good to firm) won't quite suffice, and there's likely competition for the lead also. |
