16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Eight C&D wins, the most recent off current mark in August; not in the same form since and was behind a few of today's rivals last time. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has struggled on his last three starts but always a force to be reckoned with at this track having registered an eighth win here on his last visit in August (1m, good; ridden by Oliver Carmichael); only 2lb higher. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Took a big step forward on just his second go in handicaps when runner-up at Salisbury (1m) 16 days ago, hampered last 1f and awarded race; up 2lb but he remains unexposed at this trip; player. |
7/2 |

29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinting pedigree but he's raced only at about 7f, keeping on at just the one pace when sixth of 12 on handicap debut at Doncaster (good to soft; first start since gelded) in July; might prefer quicker ground but he moves up to 1m with something to find. |
9/1 |

6th 1 (4) |
23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts (7f/7.3f) and improvement is needed on handicap debut; however, he's been gelded since his last run last month which could help him tap into the considerable potential in his pedigree. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year and was well held in three hurdle runs before pulling up on handicap debut at Worcester (2m4f, good) last month; new cheekpieces and tongue-tie combination needs to spark a revival. |
25/1 |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year since switching stables and has been well held in three hurdle starts, although he wasn't beaten far when sixth of nine here (2m) in May; moves up in trip for handicap hurdle debut with something to prove. |
33/1 |

7th 1 (2) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
7f win for Ed Walker as a 2yo; modest form on Flat and over hurdles for new yard this year; Royal Ascot was fanciful latest and although this is more realistic, others still bring more compelling claims. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Three-time course winner over 1m on good or faster ground, but was successful from 8lb higher on heavy at Bath (1m) a year ago; an extra furlong may suit him best, but still respected from an an attractive mark. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
The winner of three of his six C&D starts (good and good to firm), all in July or August; well treated these days and he looked on the way back when hampered over 7f here in July and he again didn't get the clearest of runs over C&D nine days ago; solid contender. |
6/1 |

5th 9 (13) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In a good run of form when winning this 12 months ago and returns after a close third here over 7f; nothing wrong with his mark. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual winner over 7f at this track, the latest (good to soft) in May; has one good run against his name over this far, but on balance shorter trips seem to suit him best and he may also prefer slower ground. |
7/1 |
|
5th 8 (3) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Landed his third win at Chepstow (7f, good to soft) last month and ran up to that form when runner-up back there (soft) six days ago; still on a workable mark and holds claims. |
7/2 |

2nd 9 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Gained a second C&D victory when getting up late in 11-runner handicap last month; up 2lb but that form is working out well so he must enter calculations. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Excels on slow ground at Bath, the scene of all her five wins; quiet run at Salisbury last time after a break and now back from another. |
20/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All five of her wins have been at Bath (1m/1m2f) with four of them on soft/heavy, the latest over 1m2f in October off a 4lb lower mark than today's; third in both starts over this C&D and she's proven fresh, so is of some interest on her first start for 188 days. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Winner of one of her three C&D starts, when making all last month (good; acts on soft), but her race was run from a long way out when going unpenalised next time; not weighted out of it despite going back up 5lb and has had a longer break between races this time; can be involved. |
6/1 |

4th 8 (1) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Made all to win a C&D handicap eight days ago; unpenalised for that win and officially 5lb ahead of the handicapper but it may not be quite so straightforward this time. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 (7) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Exposed filly who has been in patchy form this year, including when beating one home over 1m2f at Windsor last month; drop back in trip will help, and she's 3lb below her last winning mark, but others look safer. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) and followed up from the front at Wolverhampton (9.4f), albeit narrowly; however, ground slower than good is looking an issue. |
15/2 |

6th 4 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Improved to win at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) and followed up from the front at Wolverhampton (9.4f), albeit by the skin of her teeth; only 2lb higher so remains on a competitive mark, but slow ground hasn't looked ideal previously. |
9/2 |

Six-race maiden; beaten long way on belated reappearance (stable debut); others preferred. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Consistent maiden who signed off for Tom Clover with a solid fifth of eight in 1m Kempton handicap last August; subsequently changed hands for 4,600gns and she needs to hit the ground running for her new yard here. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Maiden who isn't particularly solid on her 6f-1m form for current stable; bred to stay further but failed to convince with her stamina over middle distances for previous yard. |
20/1 |
|
8th 5 (1) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Inconsistent maiden who possibly needs soft/heavy ground; has achieved little in two starts since returned to AW; enough to prove. |
25/1 |

8th 5 (1) |
17th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ten-race maiden; finished second at Bath last September but that was 1m on heavy ground; too much to prove dropped in trip. |
