6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Poor effort last time will need forgiving but he's always been capable of the odd stinker; better drawn than for two runs here early in the year and it wouldn't be a shock to see him bounce back. |
14/1 |

9th 8 (8) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Only 1-14 but he's a strong traveller who only narrowly missed out at Lingfield (6f) and Goodwood (5f, good) before a midfield finish at Windsor where never really involved; has a big effort in him. |
15/2 |
|
5th 2 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Record of 1-13 but he's been knocking on the door at Lingfield (6f, AW) and Goodwood (5f, good) this spring; up another 2lb but this strong traveller was only just caught last time and the first three pulled clear in that race; key player. |

18th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more. |
16/1 |

4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper. |
20/1 |

7th 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Prominent racer; off the mark for the year with a narrow win at Bath (5f, good) in May; held her form since and her latest Sandown third came in a higher grade; Ashley Lewis knows her well and she's a leading contender. |
9/2 |

Consistent filly who has been running well and this mark isn't beyond her; goes on all ground and Oisin Murphy rides; solid. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Multiple winner in previous seasons; 0-11 this year but is proving consistent, close second returned to AW most recently; remains 1lb below last winning mark; in the mix. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of 12 of his 92 starts, the latest success coming at Chelmsford in October off 1lb higher; several good runs to his name this time around and Billy Loughnane replaces a 7lb claimer today; one to take seriously. |
2/1 |

2nd 1 (1) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Losing run up to 13 and he finished over 4l behind Sonic Si when fifth of seven at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday; 1-1 here but he needs to do better than that latest effort. |

A 5f AW winner when trained in UK; well beaten in four runs for this yard and has to do much better. |
25/1 |
|
13th 10 (21) |
28th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 25y |
9st 6lb |
5f AW winner in Britain in August 2024; failed to fire in 2025 and hasn't looked a winner in waiting in three runs for this stable; dropped 6lb for heavy defeat at Gowran latest (1m, gd-yld); can only watch down in trip. |
25/1 |
|
13th 6 (18) |
20th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Achieved a peak rating of 70 in 2024 based on consistent form over sprint trips at Chelmsford; regressive last season; has failed to beat a single rival in two Dundalk races; tackles this trio for the first time with a lot to prove. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to make all but has become tactically versatile; all four wins have been at Chelmsford where he ran well from a wide draw 11 days ago; 0-6 on the AW here but three times a runner-up and much respected from stall 1. |
11/4 |
|
5th 9 (9) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has been a trailblazer in the past, but showed he didn't have to lead when successful off this mark on his reappearance over C&D in May (all four wins here); should appreciate the return to this venue following three lesser efforts on turf and one for the shortlist despite the outside stall. |
9/2 |
|
6th 2 (2) |
9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
All four wins have come on the AW at Chelmsford including from 2lb lower on his reappearance in May (5f); however, he is 0-26 elsewhere and 0-15 on turf so not hard to have reservations. |
20/1 |
