16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not the force of old but he ran creditably when second to Alshimali over C&D ten weeks ago; wouldn't be sure to build on it. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner who is 1-19 on turf; now 10lb lower than for his Kempton win (6f, Polytrack) last March but he's been well held in last six runs and others are preferred; cheekpieces back on. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Better known on AW; can lead but he came from off the pace when winning at Bath (5f, firm) last month under James Glennon; nothing went right from a wide draw at Beverley since but he does act well on fast ground and has a generally good record over C&D (course winner at 5f); thereabouts. |
12/1 |

8th 4 (9) |
27th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple AW wins; much less prolific on turf but he was running over 5f on grass for the first time since a 2024 win when getting up near the line at Bath (firm) recently under James Glennon; has an awkward draw but this track may also suit; has to be considered. |
7/2 |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A three-time 6f AW winner in 2025 and in good nick over the winter; just as effective on turf and this quirky sort is not out of things back from a break today. |

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. |
16/1 |
|
8th 5 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Has won over this intermediate distance; good second at Catterick on second start (5f, good) this season but below his best either side of that. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Not the force of old and, although he retains some ability, others in this field have more pressing claims. |

4th 3 (5) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Beaten a neck and a head in this race last year; has run some good races this season but her form dropped off at Salisbury last month and a visit to Brighton, a track she likes, could only produce a fourth of nine last time; handicapper's trying to help, though. |
7/1 |

8th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner who has run some good races this season but her form dropped off at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) two weeks ago; on dangerous mark but has bit to prove again after that last run and she's now 1-26 in handicaps; visor removed. |
11/2 |

23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten favourite on AW last time; only 1-25 in handicaps, compared to 2-5 at classified level, but has done her winning on turf and holds a fighting chance in this field. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
2-30 overall, with the second win in a classified at Bath (5.7f, good) early last month; ran moderately under the same 7lb claimer at Brighton two weeks ago and may need his best run since last May. |
5/1 |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just 2-29, but comes into this off the back of a win in a similar event at Bath (5.7f, good); not the most reliable but a player if in the same form; stable also runs Washington Heir. |

9st 3lb |
Record of 2-5 since wearing a hood (maiden previously), the wins in Class 6 events at Brighton (about 5f); has to overcome career-high mark back up in trip/grade and returned to AW. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |

Eventually off the mark at the 13th attempt when readily seeing off Libra Tiger over C&D in August; beaten twice since, including a disappointing effort behind Barnsnape Boy 46 days ago; type to bounce back. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Wore this equipment combination on last three starts, beaten a nose in a Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) on first occasion and making all in a classified here (5f, good) on second; wide draw and interference leaving the stalls prevented those tactics at Windsor three weeks ago; 5lb claimer is on board this time; should be of renewed interest. |
3/1 |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Went very close in first-time tongue-tie/blinkers in Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) last month then made all in a classified at Leicester (5f, good); it took her a long time to post that first win but she came clear with a subsequent winner at Leicester and is unexposed in this headgear combination; can make another bold bid. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
