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. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple sprint winner who added two more at Bath (on firm) this summer; has course form here too but he made life difficult for his rider over C&D last month and his heart may not be in it back on this track. |
9/1 |

5th 4 (16) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Didn't help himself by racing awkwardly last time at Brighton but has won on his last two visits here, latterly under Owen Lewis; hard to call him well handicapped but, like many in here, he has each-way claims. |
25/1 |
|
4th 2 (7) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual firm-ground Bath winner this season, latterly off 3lb lower for Owen Lewis late last month; as high in the weights now as he's been for a few years and his record round here is nothing exciting. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has a better strike-rate on the AW and his last turf win was over two years ago; finished well when runner-up at Catterick (5f, good) in May but he's been quiet since and reared at the start when down the field at Ayr last time; others preferred. |

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

12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

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 |

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. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Turf wins at about 5f, here and in a classified event at Bath in June; mixed since the latter win but he wasn't far away in a better race than this over C&D in August (hood left off, now returns) under Myla Coppins and has claims on that form. |
5/1 |

6th 6 (6) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won a classified event over C&D in June; best run since when midfield in a better race than this at Brighton ten days ago; minor money perhaps his best hope. |
9/1 |
|
8th 13 (8) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |

Doesn't find winning easy and he has been well short of his best on his last three starts; others have stronger claims. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Won twice at Brighton last year; shaped as though the run was needed on last month's seasonal return at Wolverhampton; should have a big run in him. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won twice at Brighton in the second half of 2025; ended that campaign with a good second at Lingfield in December but he has been absent since and he'll need a personal best to take this on his return. |
10/1 |
|

27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
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. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Her only win from 26 attempts came in a 0-50 classified at Leicester (5f, good) in June; runner-up in handicaps on three occasions since but she was disappointing over C&D last time. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (7) |
28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win came in a classified event at Leicester (5f, good) in June but she's been involved in two tight finishes over this C&D and ran another good race at Windsor recently under Rossa Ryan; likely player. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (11) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Mainly running well since winning a 0-50 classified event at Leicester (5f, good) in June, but just 1-24 and may again find one or two too good. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 54 starts came over this C&D in April 2023; wasn't helped by racing wide when fourth behind Let's Go Hugo at Wolverhampton eight days ago and makes some each-way appeal. |
11/1 |
|
4th 2 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-53 and well held in similar events on turf during the summer; hard to recommend. |
