25th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Took a 14lb hit for winning a couple of classifieds in 2023 and won his first handicap in convincing fashion on his 2024 reappearance at Chelmsford (2m, AW); came back from a 469-day absence with a big defeat back there (1m6f) a fortnight ago and only market support would make him of interest. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Course winner over 2m on 2024 reappearance and placed on his two other AW starts last year; not seen for 469 days but evidently capable when fresh. |

7th May 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice at Ffos Las last year but he's scored on AW on four occasions, including first time out in 2024; absent since a heavy defeat at Newbury (1m4f, soft) in October but is back on a workable mark for his reappearance. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Won twice in small fields at Ffos Las (1m6f/2m) this summer and creditable fourth at Goodwood 13 days ago; placed twice on soft but has a poor record on heavy, including penultimate start, which clouds his each-way claims. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won over 11.5f at Haydock in May off 4lb lower; comes here on the back of two fair efforts over further at Chelmsford but this looks more competitive and he will need to raise his game to win. |
6/1 |
|
6 (6) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Winner at Haydock in May (1m4f) and mostly creditable efforts since, including third over 1m6f here last week; no extra towards the finish on that occasion so this evening's slightly shorter trip could be ideal. |
6/1 |
|
3 (1) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Winner at Haydock in May (1m4f); promising fourth on AW debut here (1m2f) in April and better than result (caught wide and went for home too soon) when fourth back on AW at Wolverhampton (1m4f) last time; first attempt at 1m6f. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made all to win a 1m6f handicap at Wolverhampton for Jamie Osborne last September; unplaced in two hurdle runs for this yard but he didn't run badly returned to the Flat at Goodwood 19 days ago (1m6f, good); down in class today and should have a big run in him. |
9/2 |

4th 8 (10) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
1m6f AW winner for Jamie Osborne but returns to this scene after two heavy defeats over hurdles, the latest after a wind operation; has a bit to prove off this mark even if he's back on song. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Headgear helped on AW last September-December, including for 1m6f/2m hat-trick; peak form was not repeated this year, including in two small fields this spring but they were at 1m3f/1m4f; returning to 2m should be a big help but none of his turf form (five races) approaches this mark. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Headgear helped last autumn, with him landing a hat-trick, including two over 2m round Southwell, latterly off a 4lb lower mark; solid effort there last Thursday, back from a few months off (1m3f), but he'll want a similarly strong pace this evening. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won his last two starts for Ralph Beckett and completed the hat-trick here over 2m in November when visored for the first time on his debut for this stable; ran another good race when runner-up at Kempton (2m) next time but he was below his best 97 days ago; could bounce back on his first start since but this drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Triple AW winner at up to 13.5f, including easily over C&D against her own sex latest; a 5lb penalty may not prevent her from following up, provided that career-best form is repeated. |
11/4 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
23rd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins since returned to AW in September and she's finished runner-up in her last four starts; didn't get much luck when a close second at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) two weeks ago and she's a key player off only 1lb higher here. |
9/4 |
|
1 (3) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Nosed ahead close home at Chelmsford (1m5f) five days ago, taking record since racing in AW handicaps to 12331; incurs a penalty but Joe Bradnam takes off 7lb; gives impression she'll stay this new trip; solid. |
