4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
In cracking form of late, winning five times last month including once at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack); has coped well with the quick turnaround when gaining those victories and not opposed easily in his current mood, despite a welter burden under a 5lb penalty. |

29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Winner of his last four races, two at Brighton (6f/7f, good to firm/soft), on the AW at Lingfield (7f) and the latest off 3lb lower at Leicester (6f, good to soft); should go well again. |
6/4 |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Win number five this season, four for Jack Callan, and a 5lb penalty for last Monday's Brighton victory (7f, soft) sees him 25lb higher than for his opening success in April; evidently well suited by switchback tracks and this is a different test but he'll be popular again. |

Multiple course winner, the latest last September (6f, soft) off a 1lb lower mark; she has run some solid races in defeat this year but consistency has been an issue and others appeal more in today's field. |

30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Seven-time winner at Chepstow and finished a solid second, splitting subsequent winners, there last time; has form over this C&D and warrants respect up just 1lb. |
9/4 |

2nd 2 (1) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |

Seven-time course winner (4-12 over this trip); has been running over 7f of late but should be all right with the return to 5f and is back at the right sort of level off her last winning mark; enters calculations. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Consistent and probably a career-best to win after a break at Chepstow (5f, good to firm; fine on softer); only 2lb higher so has to be taken seriously. |
7/2 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Largely consistent 6yo who gained last season's win at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) in September; subsequent defeat on heavy ground there can be overlooked but he makes his reappearance from a fairly tough mark. |
10/1 |
|
8th 3 (5) |
20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Improved his turf strike-rate to 7-26 when beating 13 rivals over C&D (good to firm) last month; that was a narrow success but he's been as good as ever since a visor has been added and is versatile ground-wise; big player again up 3lb. |

Eight-time winner, the latest over C&D (good to soft) 14 months ago off a 5lb higher mark; capable at this level but slower ground would have been preferable. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |

Won over C&D in May last year (good to soft); beaten 7l when third at Ripon last week (6f, good); these are his ideal conditions and should go well. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 12 (11) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Half of his wins have come over C&D and he finished sixth (Fortamour third) in this race in 2024; runner-up in added blinkers at Hamilton (6f, soft; 11-2) last September, but has failed to sparkle since (0-3); easing mark and a return to Ripon are the positives. |

Currently 2-4 over C&D (also finished fourth in this last year off 4lb lower); a disappointing effort last time will need forgiving but the return here will help, this time with 7lb being taken off by Jake Dickson. |
8/1 |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Won three times last season, the most recent coming at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in July; respectable third over this C&D on his return in April and kept on for fifth of 11 at Redcar (6f, good) 16 days ago; contender if things drop right. |

5th 3 (8) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Not had a lot of luck of late, latterly when anticipating the start and slowly away at Chester ten days ago; has a C&D autumn win to her name and goes on the shortlist for a yard in decent nick. |
8/1 |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |

Close to her last winning mark (6f, Carlisle) and has knocked at the door at Beverley (5f, soft; third) and Hamilton (6f, good to soft; runner-up) on her last two starts; that latest effort was given a boost with Gizelles Izzy (third) winning at Carlisle on Tuesday; one of the likeliest candidates. |

9st 2lb |
Back to the same career-low mark she cashed in on in first-time blinkers at Goodwood in June (6f, good), progress having stalled again since; holds Connie's Rose and Papabella on last month's Leicester clash, albeit she was fairly well held herself; place rather than win claims. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Denied Connie's Rose close home off 2lb higher at Chepstow in June (6f, good to firm), but behind that rival the last twice (softer ground not to blame) and her season is starting to trail off; others persuade more. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Again inclined to hang left behind Connie's Rose last time, when well below market expectations; won over C&D this time last year but that was off a 7lb lower mark and she's weighted to her best. |

2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Added a C&D win (a little to find with the runner-up Connie's Rose) in June to two over 6f (good to firm and soft) in 2024; shade below best at Ffos Las four weeks ago but can't rule out back on this course. |
