29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
11st 13lb |
Dual Nottingham winner; acts on soft, unraced on heavy; shot back to some form when storming home in an amateur riders' race at Bath (11.5f, good to soft) last month; well below form next time (1m6f, which he stays) but Henry Callan galvanised him to a 1m4f win at Newbury (soft) on Saturday; sole attempt at 1m2f was in 2021 but he had to hold on at Newbury after going clear and his appearance over this trip with 4lb penalty no longer looks ridiculous. |

Returned to winning ways when scoring over C&D (good) last month off 4lb lower; raced too freely at Ffos Las two days later and may be worth considering back at his last winning venue. |
12/1 |

3rd 5 (5) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Placed three times from four starts here but his regular hunting ground is Bath and he scored there (1m, heavy) off 5lb lower wearing a new hood/tongue-tie combination in October; kept to that track until the hood was removed in ten-runner handicap at Chepstow (1m, good) on Monday when he saw it well to score under Mason Paetel; carries 4lb penalty but won't mind what the weather does; player. |

Patchy round Bath for his current yard this year, mainly over further; ran poorly ten days ago, hard to predict and some way down the pecking order. |

10st 11lb |
Four wins came on turf later in the year and made it 0-16 on the AW when tailed off over 1m6f here five weeks ago; on a career-low mark now but it's hard to find any other positives. |

0-15 on AW but not beaten far when seventh of 13 on comeback run here (1m3f) 16 days ago; steps back up in trip and down to a career-low mark so not out of this. |

C&D winner who hasn't scored since August 2023; well beaten in his only two starts since September 2024 and looks best watched. |
20/1 |

6th 4 (4) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Good record here down the years, with form figures of 21319 highlighting two wins at 1m4f (good); also scored twice over this trip in 2023 (including on good to soft) but no wins since and he only saw the track once last year; still worth a market check ahead of his return. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Placed on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in January but he's struggled since and was tailed off at Brighton (1m4f, good to soft) 13 days ago; now 0-10 and has a lot to prove on this switch to a staying trip. |
20/1 |
|
9th 6 (5) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Nine-race maiden whose best efforts came on the Wolverhampton AW (8.6f/9.5f) last winter; has shown little on turf, including both starts since returning in July, and still has stamina to prove; others stronger. |
25/1 |

6th 13 (11) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Improved on earlier form when third of ten on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (about 1m1f, AW) in January but has finished remote since, in a hood then cheekpieces (retained) on last two starts; risky. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Her wins come round infrequently now but she's well handicapped on her best form at about this trip for Alice Tregoning in 2024; versatile ground-wise and it's likely that she'll have a say. |
10/1 |
|
5 (1) |
26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Getting on for three years since her last win and stamina for 2m still not conclusively proven; fair mark judged on last season's best and she should be sharper with her reappearance four weeks ago behind her. |
10/1 |
|
4 (8) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
No win since September 2022 but second under Alice Tregoning at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft) and Haydock (11.5f, good to soft) on two of her last five outings; tailed off on latest but that was her first race on heavy going; competitive if back on song. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
1m4f AW handicap win for the Gosdens and doubled his tally in soft-ground handicap at Yarmouth (1m2f) for William Knight, both in 2024; couldn't recapture that form last year and was sold for 8,000gns in October; starts out for new yard from career-low mark so worth a check of the betting. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Two wins in 2024, over 1m4f (AW) and 1m2f (soft), but it's been a slog this year and he's gone into reverse since a better effort in third of 11 at Windsor (1m2f, soft) in July; the recent rain is in his favour now back on turf, though, and he's not ruled out. |
10/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Dual winner last year (C&D first occasion) but there's been an echo of that form only once this season, when third at Windsor on penultimate start; sinking in the weights but C&D tenth on latest dampens enthusiasm. |

11st 0lb |
Placed four times at up to 1m3f in France; missed all of 2024 and ran as well as could be expected when fifth at Chepstow (1m2f, good) in June for new yard; no improvement on that when a one-paced fourth on Chelmsford AW since and now has a hood added; needs to improve for it and the new trip. |

4th 7 (6) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

0-11 in France but she was second on three occasions (1m1f-10.5f); wasn't beaten far when fifth of eight on stable debut at Chepstow (1m2f, good) in June; that was her first start for 576 days and she may well improve from that. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Got off the mark at the 27th attempt under rules at Exeter (2m, good to firm) last October; ran her best since when runner-up at Fakenham (2m7f, good) 26 days ago; her versatility distance-wise holds her in good stead but her win-record is off-putting. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Scored off today's mark in first-time cheekpieces at Exeter (2m, good to firm) in October and posted a good effort over 2m4f the following month but was pulled up three weeks ago, after a break, and her Flat pedigree raises doubts over the suitability of this trip. |

Five turf wins, most recently at Ffos Las (1m6f, good to soft; other wins on good or quicker) in July 2024; suffered two heavy defeats this year but refitting regular cheekpieces could make a difference. |
