21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has an up-and-down profile but won a handicap at Newbury (1m2f, good to soft) last September and fared best of those to come from off the pace when third on her reappearance at Chester (10.3f, good) in May; returns from another break and slow ground would boost her claims. |
11/1 |

3rd 8 (13) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Twice highly tried after winning a handicap at Newbury (1m2f, good to soft) from 7lb lower in September; still unexposed, but she may need this after six months off and is drawn wide. |
20/1 |
|
1st 6 (2) |
19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Potential Oaks candidate at the start of the year but her Listed sixth (soft) in June has been the best she can manage from three starts; heavy defeat on her handicap debut (also Goodwood, 1m2f, good) in July; risks attached but she still needs a market check with Rossa Ryan taking over. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |

Holds weak claims on his two efforts this season for new stable and is best watched unless the betting suggests a resurgence is likely. |
25/1 |
|
14th 17 (17) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Seven-time winner in France; this front-runner was runner-up in twice in a row for Tom Dascombe last July/September but things didn't go to plan on his final two runs for that yard (Flat/hurdles) and he was well beaten on his stable and seasonal debut at Chepstow in May. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-time winner in France; 0-5 for Tom Dascombe but his second at Newbury (1m2f, good to soft) in September was an eyebrow-raiser, looking all over the winner before being claimed late; considered on this stable debut/reappearance. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |

Has been running well in 1m2f/1m4f handicaps and showed a willing attitude to edge home on the AW last Wednesday; solid chance, though wouldn't be certain to appreciate softening ground. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (7) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Readily won back to back last July (made all) and went down by a head in October (all 1m2f on turf); much more like it when tackling 1m4f for the first time at Salisbury 13 days ago, finding just an Andrew Balding 3yo too strong; will need to settle better if she's to see this trip out best. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |

Tends to lead; won twice last summer and she also went close here (again 1m2f, good) in October; yet to match latter form in two starts this term and now tries a new trip. |

On a losing run but he's proving consistent this season and posted a solid third of six in 1m2f handicap here two weeks ago; this course winner ought to be thereabouts once more. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Consistent 6yo who was placed at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month and remains 1lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to firm) just over a year ago; ought to be right in the thick of things. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Consistent 6yo who was beaten under 1l when fourth of eight at Chester (extended 1m4f, good) 12 days ago and will be fine over this shorter trip; likely to be on the premises again. |

Dual Flat winner in Britain on good-to-firm; improved on moderate hurdles debut when beaten 17l at Listowel on good 84 days ago having raced plenty keen; each-way claims if building on that. |
16/1 |
|
5th 1 |
30th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Progressive 3yo for William Haggas in 2024, winning twice over 1m2f on good to firm; hasn't reached those heights since and was tailed off at Killarney on hurdles/stable debut; hood worn that day now left off. |
50/1 |

Multiple winner down the years, including at this track, and all ground seems to come alike to him; dropping back into Class 4 will help but his stamina has to be taken on trust. |
20/1 |
|
11th 9 (10) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 11y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who won two in a row at Lingfield (1m2f/1m1f, good to firm) and maybe went off too hard when well beaten at Sandown (1m2f, good) last time; has won here twice and he might not be far away if bouncing back. |
20/1 |
|
9th 6 (11) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won this in 2021 and was third in one of the divisions 12 months ago; returns off a 6lb higher mark than last year but on the back of two wins at Lingfield, the latest narrowly from the front off 3lb lower; thriving 9yo who must have some sort of chance. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Smooth success at Nottingham (1m2f, good) on her reappearance in April; four solid efforts have followed, most recently a close second at Windsor 18 days ago when she was only picked off late; should remain competitive off an unchanged mark. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 1 (6) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Looked as good as ever when scoring in good style on seasonal debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April but subsequent efforts, though respectable, suggest she's a shade vulnerable off her current mark. |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Creditable third in both starts since making a successful reappearance; remains in form but is getting no respite from the assessor, as another 1lb rise reflects; has done all her winning off marks in the 60s. |

1m win for Andrew Balding last May; yet to win a handicap but she is dropping down the weights and she didn't run too badly at Windsor last month; still to conclusively prove she needs this far. |
20/1 |

5th 2 (2) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
A fair 1m winner for Andrew Balding in 2025; largely below par for current yard though, racing freely when last of nine in 1m Ascot handicap on recent return; should strip sharper here though. |
10/1 |

9th 8 (2) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Had plenty of chances from marks in the mid 70s last season, ending it with two below-par runs; her mark has eased as a result but it's not enough to tempt back from nine months off. |

Landed 1m novices on his first two starts in 2025; signed off for Hugo Palmer with a good second of ten in 1m Kempton handicap 23 days ago; changed hands for 30,000 guineas and not out of things for new handler. |
8/1 |

2nd 5 (9) |
2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft) and Southwell (1m, AW) in his first two starts, but he's struggled in three of his four handicaps including when last of ten at Chester (10.3f) last month; has looked stretched in both attempts at that trip but he needs a major revival back on AW; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
16/1 |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Dual novice winner (1m, good to soft/AW) who suffered a heavy defeat on his handicap debut at Newbury (1m2f) in September and was beaten even further in the Spring Mile on his comeback in March; turned the ship around when third at Pontefract (1m, good; first-time cheekpieces) last time, however; now needs to build on that tackling this trip again. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Improved form for James Tate and she followed a narrow defeat in a Nottingham novice in July by opening her account in a Ripon maiden (also 1m2f, good) last month; opening mark looks workable and she's of interest on this handicap debut. |
7/2 |

7 (3) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Hint of ability in 1m AW events in Ireland as 2yo but she showed much more on debut for this yard when losing out narrowly at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in July, a race that worked out well with the winner and third going in next time; strong claims. |

18th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |

Out of a well-connected mare and displayed promise on both 1m AW starts in Ireland for Diego Dias in the autumn; worth a glance in the betting before this stable debut but others have much stronger form claims. |

10st 11lb |
Up and down on AW since these aids were fitted at the start of 2026, winning at Kempton and back to form after a couple of lesser efforts when runner-up at Lingfield in May (both 1m); no good thing to improve on poor efforts in two previous turf handicaps last year. |

2nd 2 (6) |
12th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |

Responded well to the fitting of a visor when winning easily on his Kempton return (1m, Polytrack) in February, but twice disappointing since and still 7lb higher; enough to prove. |
