16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Completed a hat-trick (1m2f/1m, heavy-good to firm) at Thirsk in May and returned to form when runner-up at Nottingham (1m, good) on October 1; well beaten at York (1m2f, good to soft) last Saturday but ran well for a long way and he's not discounted back down to 1m. |

1st Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Compelted a hat-trick at Thirsk (1m, good) in May and he's of interest on that form, but two lesser performances have followed at York and he needs to get back on track. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
11-race maiden; raced too freely in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) and flopped badly when warm favourite at Chester two months ago but the form of his close fourth at Newbury (1m2f, good) in April worked out well and he'll be dangerous here if all goes to plan after his short break. |

7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up over about 1m2f on four of eight starts last year, including in two handicaps and one was at this track; disappointing when 4-7 in a novice event on reappearance but back-to-form fourth of 14 in 1m2f handicap at Newbury on latest start; place claims again and cheekpieces are added. |
9/2 |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up over about 1m2f on four of eight starts last year, including in two handicaps; close third on reappearance at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in early March but that was when 4-7 in a novice event and that disappointment heightens the concern over his lingering maiden status. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Novice win in 2024 remains his sole win in 18 Flat races and he has performed poorly in his two previous visits here; well-held third over hurdles last week; not overly appealing. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Defied this mark over C&D last October but he's been up and down since and was laboured back at this track in August; comes with risks attached and he needs to bounce back again. |
12/1 |
|
7th 8 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Winner here off 2lb lower last October, his third over C&D; last month's Chester comeback from a short break should have brought him on and he holds each-way claims under Oisin Murphy, who boasts a good record for the yard. |
8/1 |
|
7th 6 (10) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time AW winner who was knocking on the door at Wolverhampton (8.6f/7f) in his final two starts in the spring; only 1lb higher than for his last run but this is tougher back up in grade and he's 1-25 on turf; has some work to do from high draw after a break. |

9th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well treated on best turf form; placed twice for new yard; down the field returned to AW last time and still has something to prove in this sphere; however, this class-drop may have positive effect. |
10/1 |
|
8th 6 (10) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Runs over shy of 1m for the first time in ages (may well help) on her Tapeta debut; shown enough in three runs for her current, in-form yard to suggest this mark is well within reach; shortlisted. |
8/1 |

3rd 4 (7) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
All three wins for Alice Haynes were on ground slower than good; had lost her way but the signs have been a tad more encouraging for James Owen and she's on a dangerous mark. |

25th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
15-race maiden but runner-up in two of his last three runs, including a bold bid from a wide draw at Chester (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago; back up 2lb but he remains well treated on his best form and is a key player. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 8 (11) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
14-race maiden; two good placed efforts in midsummer but he was a well-beaten fifth when strong in the market at Ffos Las (1m4f, good; visor replaced cheekpieces) last month; returning to 1m2f in his favour and handles slow ground; could bounce back quickly. |
13/2 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
0-13 but has been placed on his last two runs; a visor replaces cheekpieces on this step up in trip and Oisin Murphy rides for the first time; plenty of positives and should go close. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Three hurdle wins this season, most recently when given a nicely judged Joe Anderson ride from off the pace over C&D (good) 12 days ago; 4lb rise is not excessive but the ground may have turn against him now. |
