17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Kept on well for second of 15 over an extended 1m4f at Chester (good) in May but below-par sixth over the same trip at Goodwood since; latest win came over 1m on AW in March, so the significant drop back in trip shouldn't be an issue but it's still hard to be upbeat about her prospects here from 4lb out of the handicap. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Had a lot of racing but she arrives here in a fine run of form and kept on well for second in a Class 4 at Chester four weeks ago (good); effective on good to soft; chance. |

2nd 9 (5) |
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. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Over two years since his last win and his latest 1m run here was a poor one; better expected now dropping into Class 6 company though. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won three over this trip last year, twice from the front on turf, latterly off a 3lb lower mark; well held in two runs back but this is less competitive under Billy Loughnane and he may well be able to get his own way in this smaller field; possibilities if so. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won three 1m handicaps (AW/good) last year and was fourth in an earlier race on this card 12 months ago when the ground was good to soft; the clear negative is complete no-shows in his last three starts. |
13/2 |

11th 10 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won three 1m handicaps (AW/good) last season but he ended his 5yo campaign with heavy defeats over C&D and at Chelmsford; has bit to prove after six months off and he doesn't have a great record when fresh. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time winner, split between turf and AW; last success was off 2lb higher at Salisbury (1m) last August but he's been out of sorts in last three runs and needs a major revival; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |
10/1 |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ran well at Bath in June but has lacked consistency this year; 7yo who's far from guaranteed to take advantage of being 2lb below last winning mark. |
14/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Recent form a bit patchy, but his second of 11 at Bath (1m, good; first-time visor) on his penultimate start took his record off today's mark to 313212; does most of his racing over shorter these days, but shouldn't have a problem with this trip. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Three wins in 2025, the last two over this trip at Kempton; yet to match that form after three starts this year, though, and didn't find that much after travelling well at Kempton (1m3f) on Monday. |
12/1 |

5th 6 (3) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Not fired in two starts on turf since returning last month but he won twice over C&D last autumn and is just 1lb higher than for his latest success; worth a second look. |
12/1 |
|
8th 1 (7) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner who completed a Kempton double (1m3f, AW) in October but he's been well held in two starts since; may have needed his reappearance run at Chepstow last month but that took his turf record to 1-13 and others are preferred. |
