7th 4 (11) |
27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Didn't look at all happy at Epsom (7f, good to soft) last time, but is just 1lb higher than when making a successful reappearance at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) in March; not dismissed. |
8/1 |
|
15th 12 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Progressive during last season's 3yo campaign and continued the good work when winning at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March on his reappearance; another good run when third to Dance In The Storm at Chester (7f, good) last month; versatile ground-wise and might not be far away. |
12/1 |

3rd 14 (8) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Steadily progressive on turf and AW; prevailed at Wolverhampton (7f) on seasonal debut, making it three wins from his last six races; up only another 2lb and there's the possibility of further improvement; respected. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Win (off 2lb lower last August) and two seconds to his name from four runs over C&D; pulled hard and didn't see it out over 1m here last time, and this hold-up performer should fare better as long as it doesn't become tactical. |
5/1 |
|
8th 2 (6) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won here (7f, good to firm) last August and made an encouraging reappearance when fifth of 14 at Kempton (7f, AW) last month; does stay this far but could do with the ground drying out. |
10/1 |
|
5th 12 (1) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time Tapeta winner who resumes from eight months off on a career-high mark; gone well fresh before but is used to plying his trade in lesser company and may need some help from the handicapper. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Fully effective over C&D and fine on good to soft (more to prove on soft); unplaced at Brighton last time but beaten under 3l despite being allowed to coast home in the final 100 yards having seen no daylight; should be in the thick of it. |
9/2 |
|
11th 3 (9) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Only midfield in this race 12 months ago when rated 3lb lower; she found only an unexposed 3yo too strong at Epsom 24 days ago and holds each-way claims again. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
C&D winner; creditable fourth in a stronger C&D handicap three weeks ago; dropped 1lb and likely to give it another good go. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Three-time course winner but last season ended on a low note and he was tailed off here on last month's return, albeit on ground faster than ideal. |
12/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Three-time C&D winner, most recently last May; absent since two disappointing runs here last August, though, and would appeal more on good or slower ground. |
13/2 |
|
5 (2) |
1st Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins this season, the latter from the front over C&D (good to soft) in May; also suited by good to firm ground and last month's down-the-field finish here can be excused (stumbled leaving stalls) but others in this line-up look better handicapped; finished last of 13 in first-time visor here yesterday. |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Completed a Brighton hat-trick (6f/7f, good/good to firm) in the spring but has steadily regressed here since, always behind over 1m most recently; sizeable turnaround is required. |
10/1 |
|
2 (2) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won three successive 6f/7f handicaps here in the spring and subsequent defeats suggest he might be high in the weights; perhaps this step up to 1m can help, having finished second on his only previous run over this far well over a year ago. |
9/4 |
|
6th 1 (2) |
8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won three on the spin (6f-7f) here in the spring, all when Jack Doughty was still claiming 3lb, and went up 9lb in the weights; possible the handicapper has caught up now on the evidence of his latest C&D fourth a month ago and needs more. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Consistent sort but is yet to win a handicap from 11 attempts; solid third of ten at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last month and holds place claims once again. |
6/1 |
|
9 (9) |
20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has run consistently in handicaps all summer and wasn't beaten far from a similarly wide stall over C&D off 5lb higher in the spring; needs to find a bit more from somewhere back up from 6f. |
6/1 |
|
6 (8) |
31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Beaten favourite in the Brighton race won by Pietro but broadly consistent of late and ran creditably dropped back to 6f last time (AW); 0-9 in handicaps but unexposed at this trip and has possibilities off current mark. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins in 7f classified events last month; runner-up in his last two completed starts; unseated rider early at Chester on Friday; each-way shout but hardly an unknown quantity. |
8/1 |
|
10 (7) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth, nearest at the finish, to Hallowed Time in this last year; back with James Owen again and arrives in the midst of a productive spell, recent second-place finishes (visored) to add to earlier wins at Yarmouth and Brighton (7f); can often miss the break though, which isn't ideal at Chester. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Nine of his ten wins have been on turf and he came from off the pace when good second off this mark at Brighton (6f; first-time visor) last month; has claims if he can repeat that form but he's 1-12 on AW and that success was in a claimer. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
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) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

Won over C&D last November but has failed to match that level since and doesn't appeal. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
13th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won three times in the second half of 2025, including here (5f); mixed bag in 2026 but he is capable at this level and shouldn't be discounted; stable also run Real Gold. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hard to predict and was well held at Salisbury last time but he looks interesting on his third in a Newbury handicap (6f, good to firm) in June; has claims if he can recapture that form and his last win was at this track. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

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. |
33/1 |

8th 3 (3) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won in this grade at Bath (5.7f, good) in June but two lesser efforts have followed (6f/5f) and he's not yet proven over this far; not an easy one to predict. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Poor strike-rate, including 0-27 on turf; would need a major pace collapse to win over this trip. |
12/1 |

12th 16 (1) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |

4th 9 (7) |
26th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Having his 15th start of the year already; still 5lb above his last winning mark and although he has won over 1m on the AW, 7f may suit him better. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Gained his fifth success when pulling 4l clear at Lingfield (7f, good) last month and he's finished third in both starts since, including over 1m at Kempton 15 days ago; each-way chance if seeing out this slightly longer trip. |
3/1 |

3rd 14 (5) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

C&D winner; arrives in form, winning easily over 7f at Lingfield (good ground); solid third at Brighton 12 days ago and returning to 1m is no issue; this is a step up in class though. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Always been best on the AW but off the mark on turf in a 0-50 classified event ten days ago; did a lot of racing over this trip in the past but does seem more effective over 6f these days and history suggests he's no good thing to back up Yarmouth. |
7/1 |

1st 5 (7) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Both his wins have come at Southwell (6f/7f, AW) and he's offered little in three 6f/7f handicaps on turf this summer; others are preferred. |
