22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Nowhere near as good as he was and last win was in June 2023; on much reduced mark and has run some decent races this year but he didn't get very far here (unseated at start) last time and all of his wins have been at 6f; down the list. |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Nowhere near as good as he was and although not disgraced on a few occasions on turf/Polytrack this year, more is needed in order to win despite dropping into a 0-55 for the first time; visor returns. |
8/1 |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A lot of water has flowed under the bridge since winning a Group 3 on the AW as a 2yo; not disgraced on a few occasions on turf/Polytrack (with and without headgear) this year, but a bit more is needed in order to win. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
27-race maiden but he's had three seconds since August and things didn't go his way behind an improver at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time; should get a good tow into this race and has claims if he gets the breaks. |
9/1 |
|
2 (8) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
26-race maiden but he's finished runner-up in his last three starts including over C&D (cheekpieces reapplied) on Saturday; had some traffic issues in that race and he should be in the mix again if turned out quickly. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Still a maiden after 25 starts but has twice finished second over 6f in recent weeks and wil be suited by today's return to 7f on Tapeta; sports refitted cheekpieces; probably won't be far away. |

Blew the start over C&D last week but he had been in good order prior to that, winning twice at Brighton this autumn; can bounce back quickly. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won two AW handicaps (7f/8.6f) over the winter; the handicapper may have caught up now and she still has to prove she can be as effective on turf. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins in a lower grade this winter (7f and 8.6f); not beaten far at Lingfield 12 days ago but she will need to produce a career best to take this. |
6/1 |
|
9th 7 (9) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Three wins, including C&D, since joining James Owen last summer; far too strong for her five rivals at Wolverhampton last month (8.6f) but that was only Class 5 and she will need more to follow up in this stronger race off a 6lb higher mark. |

16th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown inconsistent form, mostly on AW, this year and ran below par over C&D in most recent turf attempt; far from sure to take advantage of a reduced mark. |
20/1 |
|
5 (7) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won off 9lb higher at Bath (5.6f) last August but he's been up and down since then and has been well held in last three starts; has plenty to prove again and he's not run over this trip since 2021. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Should be making a big impact off this sort of mark but mixed record early in the year and well held, albeit after 164 days off, at Brighton five weeks ago; others look safer. |

15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Front-runner who won over C&D in 2024; beaten around 6l when third here in January but he's been well held in two starts since; others preferred. |
40/1 |
|
7th 13 (8) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Front-runner and C&D winner, but patchy form since his latest success last summer and was well held in a 0-50 classified event here four week ago; others preferred. |
33/1 |
|
8th 4 (11) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner; C&D winner; he hasn't been at his best since November and he may find a few of these seeing out their race more strongly. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Has struggled at 20-1 or bigger in all five runs, including two AW handicaps (7f) in September; still early days but she needs a transformation on her return. |
50/1 |
|
7 (9) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Has struggled at big prices in all four runs, including on recent handicap debut at Southwell (7f, AW); still early days but she needs a transformation with hood reapplied. |
25/1 |
|
10th 4 (8) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has offered little in her three runs, hooded when only eighth of 11 in 6f Wolverhampton maiden in May; she needs a big step forward now going into handicaps after a lay-off. |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Free-going colt who was a close second in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f, Tapeta) in January; below par at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) after a break in August; step back in the right direction latest; not written off. |
14/1 |
|
8 (4) |
22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Nine-race maiden who was well held at Chelmsford (7f, AW) last month but that was after a break and he finished a close second over C&D in January; looks interesting on that form and he's not ruled out back at this track. |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Regressive nine-race maiden, who has not finished closer than 4l to a winner and was tenth of 11 on her recent stable debut at Bath (1m, good to soft). |
14/1 |
|
10th 11 (4) |
13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Eight-race maiden who was safely held in 7f Lingfield classified in July, her only run for Barry Brennan; not yet proven over 1m and needs to up her game on debut for latest new stable. |
16/1 |
|
14 (15) |
22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
A whiff of ability for her previous two stables (seven runs in total) but she nevertheless needs to show something new on debut for this yard. |

9th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Inconsistent maiden; chance of finally winning depends on how well he reacts to combination of new trip and first-time tongue-tie. |
25/1 |
|
9th 9 (8) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Placed once (7f here) in 20 starts but that looks to have been a flash in the pan and he's very hard to fancy on anything he's achieved since. |
25/1 |
|
11 (6) |
30th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Runner-up on Wolverhampton reappearance (7f, AW) in April but he's not come close to that form since and is now 0-15; opposable. |
