14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
One-time very smart but now on the downgrade and often slow to break; modest efforts of late and hardly the percentage play. |
18/1 |
|
12th 2 (12) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins and two seconds to his name from nine runs over C&D, has always tended to do well around this time of year and has slid to a handy mark; odds-on to miss the break and will need things to fall right from stall 12 but there are positives. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Two wins (disqualified from one) and a close fourth to his name from four runs over C&D, his last success coming off 4lb higher in February; not as good or consistent now but unlucky not to go closer last time and the handicapper's given him every chance. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
8yo who made it three wins from his last six starts when scoring at Sandown (5f, soft) 12 days ago; up to a career-high mark but for good reason and he's versatile ground-wise, and should be fine back up to 6f; key player. |
12/1 |
|
1st 3 (9) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Made a winning reappearance off this mark at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) in May and ran well next time, but may not have handled Epsom four weeks ago; seems to handle most ground and one for the shortlist. |
8/1 |
|
7th 5 (4) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Late-maturing 8yo who scored on seasonal debut at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) in May and posted another good effort when third at Ffos Las (6f, good) in June; remains on career-high mark but probably won't be far away. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Lingfield (6f, soft) in June and back on song when third of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good) last month; raced wide when close sixth of nine at Kempton (6f, AW) last time; should be fine back at 5f; possible player. |
10/1 |
|
6th 9 (6) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Back in form last time, in the Doncaster handicap he'd won last season; any number of short-priced defeats to his name and isn't consistent, but is fine on the AW and capable if in the mood. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 12 (2) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won this last year (good) and is worth a second look; however, he hasn't really shone since winning at Lingfield (6f, soft) in June which tempers enthusiasm regarding his claims. |

29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Goes well at Windsor where the first two got first run on him 22 days ago (6f, good); respected after that effort off his fair mark, though hasn't raced here before. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 7 (5) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins and a second from seven C&D runs; looked as good as ever when second of 12 at Newbury (6f, good to firm) in June; not in the same form twice since but he is of interest back at this track; solid claims. |
9/1 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has seven wins to his name and shaped well when placed on his first two starts this year; never figured when favourite at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June but race may have come too soon and dangerous to dismiss. |

9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Denied Connie's Rose close home off 2lb higher at Chepstow in June (6f, good to firm), but behind that rival the last twice (softer ground not to blame) and her season is starting to trail off; others persuade more. |
20/1 |
|
11 (12) |
22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Again inclined to hang left behind Connie's Rose last time, when well below market expectations; won over C&D this time last year but that was off a 7lb lower mark and she's weighted to her best. |
10/1 |
|
2 (8) |
2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Added a C&D win (a little to find with the runner-up Connie's Rose) in June to two over 6f (good to firm and soft) in 2024; shade below best at Ffos Las four weeks ago but can't rule out back on this course. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up in 1m handicaps at Sandown and Bath on her last two starts but beaten a respectable distance on both occasions; will need more if she is to come out on top off the same mark. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 5 (9) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Dual winner but has yet to win this season and does need to raise her game despite recent placed efforts, as didn't really threaten to win any of those. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (6) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; yet to win this season but she was a good third at Salisbury (1m, good) in June and filled the same position behind a big improver at Lingfield (1m, AW) last time; continues to edge down the weights and she's in the mix back on turf. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Returned to form from out of the blue at Southwell (1m; 5lb lower) but that was his fifth win on the AW, whereas he's 0-11 on turf (no places); that's clearly a concern. |
6/4 |

6th 14 (3) |
9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Scored at Kempton in 2024 and 2025 but returns here with a big doubt over his current form; has poor claims on 2026 efforts. |

9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Can race freely and isn't the only potential pace influence here, but confidence in her restored by last month's Kempton rout (6f); hiked beyond any winning mark again, but goes on anything and this dual Ffos Las scorer won't fail for the return to a galloping track. |
9/4 |
|
2 (2) |
24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
All three wins (6f) on turf and she won well at Ffos Las (good) in August; 0-10 on AW, though, and she raced freely and hung for pressure when sixth of nine over C&D 19 days ago. |
11/2 |
|
6th 9 (7) |
5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All three 6f wins on turf; has form on both AW surfaces but record on sand now stands at 0-9 and this is her first Polytrack run for two years. |
6/1 |
