18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Has won off higher marks in the past but not the force of old; drops back to the minimum trip for the first time since March 2024 and she looks vulnerable to younger rivals. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual course winner (5f/6f) who remains just 1lb above her last winning mark; 0-11 over this trip and further, though, so others seem more likely. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Fared well from low draws at this track last year, including for two wins, and she's been close up at other tracks on two of her four starts this year; drawn high this time but has to be seriously considered. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not shown much in two starts on the AW since returning in March and just 3-50, but he was placed in all four starts in handicap company here (6f) last year; just about stays this far; shortlisted. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Pretty consistent last spring-autumn but doesn't win very often and made a low-key reappearance over C&D last month; needs to have taken significant benefit from that recent outing. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |

Veteran who is on a lengthy losing run; can lead but didn't at Windsor last time and was never involved; if on his game he wouldn't be without hope. |
8/1 |
|
6th 8 (2) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Veteran who is on a losing run of 22; knocking on the door on AW when last seen and he won't mind getting back on the grass; has made the running but it is not a prerequisite; could go well. |
13/2 |

4th 10 (3) |

Veteran with nine wins on his record, all over sprint trips; stays this far though and he holds each-way claims once more. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins over 6f/7f here; just 2lb above his last winning mark but well held in both starts since returning last month, including when behind three of these over C&D eight days ago; more needed; stable also runs Jackson Street. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (9) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not as consistent in recent times but rarely fails to give her running round here; little room for manoeuvre off this mark but a good test back down in trip will be fine and she holds each-way claims. |

8th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Off colour last time but was only a neck away in 7f handicaps at Wolverhampton and Lingfield prior to that; respected. |

7th 12 (3) |
26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Still 8lb higher than when winning over C&D in September, but narrow defeats off similar marks to this in his last two outings suggest he is capable of playing a part. |
9/2 |
|
3 (9) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
A string of good runs at Brighton before collecting by 3l over C&D in a race that panned out to perfection; bled from the nose when disappointing at Brighton last time but he's 7lb higher than for his penultimate run and could have competition for the lead back on AW. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to Tony Carroll and left a couple of quiet AW runs behind when scoring over C&D (beat She Went Whoosh by nearly 3l) and at Brighton (6f) in May; came up short in hat-trick bid at Windsor on Monday but was out of his comfort zone early over the bare 5f before plugging on into fifth; not dismissed if turned out quickly. |
9/4 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last month and he did it in good style; followed up under a 4lb penalty at Brighton (6f, again good to firm) one week later, leading in the final strides, so this 5f could be an issue but he's on a roll again. |
11/2 |

1st 3 (9) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Third run back with Tony Carroll when taking advantage of his reduced mark at Bath (5.7f) last Friday and he did it in good style; that gives him a big chance under just a 4lb penalty but he's run with credit at Brighton only once from eight visits. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown inconsistent form, mostly on AW, this year and ran below par over C&D in most recent turf attempt; far from sure to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
20/1 |
|
5 (7) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won off 9lb higher at Bath (5.6f) last August but he's been up and down since then and has been well held in last three starts; has plenty to prove again and he's not run over this trip since 2021. |
8/1 |

4th 1 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Should be making a big impact off this sort of mark but mixed record early in the year and well held, albeit after 164 days off, at Brighton five weeks ago; others look safer. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Finds winning races difficult (2-25) but both wins have been over C&D, the latest in a similar contest (good to firm) last Tuesday; carries a 5lb penalty but looks sure to run his race. |
100/30 |
|
1st 3 (11) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win in 24 starts came in a 0-55 handicap over C&D (good) in May last year; beaten just under 2l into fourth of nine behind Washington Heir here (5f, good) three weeks ago, but may be better over this trip these days; a player despite his wide draw. |
5/1 |

4th 2 (4) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Just 1-23 albeit the win came in a 0-55 handicap here (6f, good) just over a year ago; runner-up in last two starts at Lingfield (6f, AW) and Bath (5.7f, good to firm) and it may be that a bit further and good or faster ground suits him best, but he still holds strong claims in this company. |

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

Not the most consistent and officially rated 4lb inferior to stablemate Mister Sandman, but his sole turf success came in this race last year when sent off 14-1; interesting with the cheekpieces back on. |
7/1 |

7th 10 (6) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 5.5f classified on the first of his two visits to Brighton (last summer) but ran poorly in the other; latest start was easily his best in 2026 but that was in March and he's inconsistent. |

5th 7 (4) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |

Both wins over 6f at Brighton for another yard; opposable on what she's done for current one and has another tweak in headgear. |

23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins over 6f at Brighton (for previous yard); weak claims on 2025 form for new stable; enough to prove in this first crack at the minimum trip. |
