3rd 9 (2) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Gelded before winning at Windsor (good to firm) last May and finished that season with further wins at Sandown (also 1m, soft) and Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm); on the premises when he suffered chance-ending interference at Newbury last time and this tactically versatile sort is well drawn to sit handy; interesting. |
13/2 |

5th 13 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won three of his seven handicaps (1m-1m1f) last term, including the last two; just fourth of 13 to Spanish Voice when favourite at Newmarket on reappearance but that was respectable; player on peak 2025 effort. |
10/1 |

4th 3 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
On a roll when last seen, winning at Sandown (1m, soft) and on this course (1m1f, good to firm) in second half of last season; that form looks solid and he's been nudged up only 3lb for the second success; leading claims if ready to roll after seven months off. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Doubled his tally when winning over C&D in May off a 1lb lower mark than today's but he was below his best behind Gorgeous Mr George here (1m) four weeks ago; drops back in trip with a bounce back needed. |
9/2 |
|
7th 5 (10) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins from five starts this year, the latest in a 7f handicap here (good to firm) three weeks ago; a 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another good run. |

1st 8 (7) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Record of 1-12 but his win came at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) in March and he's held his form with three creditable efforts since; still looks on a workable mark and he's respected in suitable conditions back on turf. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Reliable sort (on turf and AW) who won twice last summer and was runner-up in March/April on his last two outings; stable has struck often enough this summer for him to be given a close look despite this new track. |
9/4 |

2nd 5 (9) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

All seven starts on the AW have been here, with his record in handicaps reading 11332; drawn a bit wider than ideal and another furlong may suit ideally, but still high on the list in this field. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner in the autumn and was a close third at Southwell (1m4f) on his penultimate run in January; left the Muir/Grassick stable for 17,000gns the following month; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for his last win and he needs a close look for new yard; tongue-tie reapplied. |
7/1 |
|
5th 7 (5) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Successful in a 1m4f handicap at Newcastle last autumn and there have been some good runs in defeat since, including over 1m4f here 17 days ago; well positioned in that steadily run race and more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
4/1 |

4 (6) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |

Ten-race maiden; two respectable efforts on soft at about 1m across August and September but he was beaten a long way a fortnight ago and that was the third time this season he's suffered a heavy defeat on good ground; cheekpieces removed for this AW debut. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Has three wins over C&D but last two starts suggest she needs to come down the weights before she is ready to win again; first-time cheekpieces. |
7/1 |

6th 10 (3) |
21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Three wins and a second from four previous visits here; has been holding her form well elsewhere and soft ground was perhaps a factor in finishing no better than fifth at Sandown last time; that was off this career-high figure but every chance of being involved back here. |
10/1 |

5th 7 (5) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Productive and consistent filly who ran respectably at Chester most recently, taking record in handicaps (AW/turf) to 111223212; new mark is 5lb higher but she look solid. |

Ended a long losing run at Newcastle (1m) in June but only 17th in 7f York handicap since; he needs to get back on track. |
10/1 |

17th 16 (10) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
No great strike-rate but a switch to hold-up tactics worked a treat when landing a second career win at Newcastle (1m, AW) ten days ago, doing well to get up having not got in the clear until inside the final furlong; a shorter trip and different track mean similar tactics may not be as easy to pull off this time. |
12/1 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Sole win from 19 came at Ripon (1m, good) last April; mostly consistent this year, a close fourth to Flying Fletcher over C&D in January, and occupied that same position behind Barry's Boy here in March; easing mark, with Paul Mulrennan booked for the first time. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |

7th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Promising second in a Wolverhampton novice (8.6f) last January but he's struggled in both subsequent runs, including on handicap debut at Sandown (1m, soft) last August; still unexposed but he has plenty to prove after another absence; hooded first time. |

21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Disappointing filly who was soundly beaten over 1m on her first two appearances this year; not bred to benefit from this big hike up in trip, and could be considered only if lively in the betting. |

18th Feb 2026 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

9st 4lb |
Gained a first success at Southwell (1m3f) in November and has added two more AW victories since, including over 1m3f here; not disgraced with fifth of 15 at Newbury (1m4f) last time and well in the mix if his stamina holds out on his first run beyond 1m4f. |

5th 7 (12) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

AW record since November reads 12112 and he was beaten a nose at Kempton 11 days ago; however, his record on turf is 85000, including a tailed-off run at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) last month, so there are loud warning bells today. |
5/1 |

2nd 8 (5) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |

Record on the AW since November reads 1211 including when defying a wide draw over C&D in February; blew out completely at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) last month, but given his record on turf (85000) perhaps that performance isn't so hard to forgive; interesting back here. |

Two wins last summer, including one over C&D, and got back to winning ways at Bath (1m, firm) eight days ago; was already due a 2lb drop then so is just 3lb higher under her penalty (1lb well in); one for the shortlist. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Only 1-8 on turf but appears to hold a fighting chance with Jack Callan's useful 5lb claim offsetting a penalty for a game success at Newcastle (1m) that took his AW record to 3-4; may do better still for current yard. |
