1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Had a fine summer with five wins and has a 4lb pull with Serenity Dream who beat him here last month; dropped to 6f in a better race last time he ran well for a long way; respected. |
7/2 |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
The winner of five races this summer, latterly getting the better of Prefer The Sister over 7f here last month (6lb better off with that rival today); well drawn to attack but could help set this up for a finisher. |
10/1 |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Resurgent front-runner who has collected five wins (three over C&D) this year; on fairly tough mark now and was soundly beaten at Newmarket on Friday but is sure to be suited by the return to this track. |

13 times a winner, three of them over C&D; in good form wheen last seen, including when second off this mark here in June; missed an intended C&D run last month after a controversial administrative error saw him withdrawn; high on the list. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed mare who is often slowly away; however, her form at the Newmarket July course features a success (over 7f) last summer and close third (over 1m) last week; may remain competitive. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can miss the break and has a patchy profile; bounced back with a close second over C&D (good to firm) last month but she hung left when fourth of six here (7f, good to firm) last time; hood is now added on this step back up in trip but she comes with risks attached. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (4) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Can miss the break but she won this race last year off 10lb lower and swiftly got over a Chester aberration when second of 11 here (1m, good to firm) under Arron D'Arcy four weeks ago; a player. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Always liked it here but is high in the weights currently and hasn't convinced over this longer trip in a few attempts; needs to bounce back from a couple of lesser efforts on turf. |
16/1 |
|
5th 3 (9) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Went up 5lb for winning a match over C&D (soft) last month and was well held off this mark at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) last time; others look better treated. |
7/1 |
|
5th 1 (4) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Six-time winner (6f/7f), including when coming out on top in a match race under Joe Bradnam at Yarmouth (7f, soft) two weeks ago; has form on the AW over 1m but a 5lb rise for that latest success demands a bit more. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Bought cheaply by current connections (was trained by Jack Jones) and made the frame when starting out for them over C&D 18 days ago (off a break; wore hood and tongue-tie together for the first time; headgear retained here); this is tougher. |
20/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Got up late to win a 7f AW handicap for Jack Jones in January; only 1lb higher today and her new trainer is quick to fit a tongue-tie. |
14/1 |
|
8th 10 (2) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Finished strongly and got up in the final strides over C&D at the start of the month, her first win at the 13th attempt; ruined her chance by hanging left back here since; a first-time hood is reached for after that. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Both wins were in late 2022 and he has been looking regressive this year; wouldn't be the obvious answer after nearly three months off. |
8/1 |
|
6 (13) |
27th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last win was over C&D but that was in a novice in December 2022; very well treated on old form but he's faded in his five runs this year and was beaten 15l at Chepstow (7-2) last time; had a difficult track position in that race but he needs a big turnaround back in trip. |
9/1 |
|
12th 2 (2) |
30th May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since late 2022; has dropped in the weights and his reappearance effort at Doncaster wasn't a bad run but he failed to build on it at Salisbury a fortnight ago; others appeal more. |

18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Best of three AW runs for Jane Chapple-Hyam was the fifth of nine over 7f at Wolverhampton; makes handicap/stable debut after a lengthy break and probably best watched. |
14/1 |

7th 5 (9) |
15th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

7th 5 (9) |
15th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Good step forward from debut effort when fifth at Wolverhampton last month but she has ground to make up on Mehmas Shy Angel and probably needs this further rise in trip to extract more. |

4th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Tapeta winner who didn't handle Brighton last time (has run well on the AW here before though); become very hit and miss in recent times and has it to prove now. |
12/1 |
|
9th 1 (2) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Signed off for Ed Dunlop with respectable fifth of 15 at Nottingham (8.3f, good; visored) in April but was always behind on recent stable debut (1m, AW; no headgear) and it's hard to know what to expect from her over this new trip; blinkers refitted. |
12/1 |

9th 10 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Hold-up filly whose win for Ed Dunlop, from whom she was picked up in April for 7,500gns, came on Tapeta; become hard to predict and there's no sign of the usual headgear back from a short break. |

Just 1-20, her sole success coming at Chelmsford (7f, AW) last December; beaten in a classified on Tuesday and needs to get back on track. |
7/1 |
|
4th 1 (10) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
One win in 19 starts came in a handicap at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack; first-time blinkers) in December and only went down narrowly over this C&D later in month; not at her best in her last two starts, but this drop in grade gives her a chance. |
5/1 |

5th 5 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Yet to win on turf, but was a creditable third to an in-form rival at Newmarket when back from a break last month (7f, good to firm); didn't fare as well over 1m at Yarmouth last week (good to firm). |
