1st 7 (9) |
24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Confirmed trailblazer who has won 13 races in his career (six on AW), but has finished out of the frame in all six starts over C&D; blinkers go on for the first time on his 86th start; others preferred. |
11/1 |

8 (5) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
One of the faster sprinters in training and he belatedly got off the mark for the year with a front-running win at Wolverhampton 17 days ago; 6lb rise against stronger opposition could find him out. |
8/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Trailblazing sprinter who got no peace up front when beaten favourite in a Racing League handicap last time; ran a stormer the time before at Haydock and should give it a good shot from stall 3; has form here. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Should be on a very good mark and was a close fourth at Newcastle last week (5f) after a prominent position throughout; that was his best run for a while. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Course winner (6f); most recent wins have come around the bend at Wolverhampton; prominent in the betting but left the impression the run would bring him on when seventh of 12 at Southwell last week (after three months off); due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but still looks on a good mark. |
7/1 |
|
7th 6 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has a course win (6f) on his record but better known for his exploits at Wolverhampton more recently; odds-on to hang to his right but he returns from a break on a dangerous mark; market to guide. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Dual 5f winner at Chepstow this season; managed only sixth of nine behind Moe's Legacy here (5.7f good to firm) last month, though, and might still be a shade too high in the weights. |
9/1 |
|
6th 5 (9) |
29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Drawn wide at Chester last time and had previously won narrowly at Chepstow (5f, good to soft), maintaining his good season; perhaps high in the weights now, though. |
15/2 |
|
8th 12 (10) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Gained second win of the season at Chepstow last time (5f, good to soft) but now 4lb higher and has no easy task from stall 10. |

28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Placed just a couple of times this term; remains on a long losing sequence, unlike fellow 9yo Impressor, but can't be dismissed off current mark; won a better race on this card two years ago. |
10/1 |
|
17th 19 (19) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Placed twice in Class 6 last month but failed to live up to market expectations at Carlisle last week, extending his long losing run; this 9yo needs to raise his game, back up in grade. |
14/1 |
|
7th 9 (4) |
9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Can lead; the latest of his nine wins came in Hamilton handicap (5f, soft) in September 2024 and that was off a mark 24lb higher than today's; solid third behind Royal Duke over this C&D two weeks ago and the recent rain will be in his favour; cheekpieces return for the first time since 2022 and he's respected. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner who completed a double at Lingfield (6f) in April; now 1lb lower than for the latest success but he's been up and down since and has struggled in three turf runs this season; others preferred. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (7) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seems happier on the AW than turf and is back down to his last winning mark; the eyeshield worn for his consistent string of efforts in the spring is also back, so there are reasons for optimism. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
13-race maiden; didn't see out 7f at Musselburgh last week and this trip should be more suitable but he's not fired on all cylinders this year; others are stronger. |
20/1 |
|
5 (6) |
1st Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
3yo whose 12 starts have been over sprint trips (zero wins), the majority at 5f; however, it's still fairly early days for him with this yard and he's kept on well over 5f on his last two runs; not a forlorn hope. |
16/1 |
|
5th 1 (7) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Remains winless and he has yet to fire in three runs for his current yard, sixth of eight in 5f Wolverhampton handicap 17 days ago; others are preferred. |

16th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Quirky veteran who's always reliant on some luck given her run style; landed a fifth win here when going in over C&D for Myla Coppins last month and may get this run to suit; player. |
8/1 |
|
5th 9 (5) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
She had been threatening prior to last week's come-from-behind win at Wolverhampton (5f); penalty demands a bit more but she should remain competitive. |
9/2 |
|
1st 6 (3) |
17th Feb 2026 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Multiple course winner; she hasn't been beaten far on her last three runs and should give it another good go. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Exposed 18-race maiden; quiet in two runs on turf after a 166-day break but last week's C&D third was more like it; the new visor needs to give him a lift. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 7 (5) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive maiden who's with his third yard; ran poorly back from a break in June and at Brighton ten days ago; has questions to answer in his first classified. |
9/1 |
|
7th 3 (5) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Regressive maiden who's with his third yard; ran poorly back from a break when last seen in June and is having just a second start at beyond 5f, so has questions to answer. |
25/1 |
