4th 8 (8) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
10yo whose easily most successful season was 2025, with four wins; the latest was at this track (2m) in December and he's held his form, including over C&D, so has each-way claims once again. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner whose most recent success came at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) off this mark in December; beaten 2l when fourth of seven there nine days ago, despite failing to settle, and there's no reason to suggest he won't go well. |
9/2 |

2nd Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent veteran who made the frame on his last six appearances and is now back on same mark as for C&D win in December; likely to be on the premises. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Losing run stretches back to July 2023 but he ended 2025 in good form and his reappearance at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) 18 days ago was a positive one; stepping back up in distance is a positive but he could do with the ground drying out. |
5/1 |

3rd 4 (2) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Serial winner in his younger days but been dry in almost three years; does have a comeback spring victory to his name but all other wins came in the second half of the year and he may need this at his age back from five months off. |

18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Formerly effective on AW but has produced best results for current stable on turf; regressive form since returned to AW started with a modest third over C&D (sole 2m attempt). |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Can front run; made all at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm; flag start) in July before another good effort when second of four at Ffos Las (2m, good); needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Chester (1m6f, good) 18 days ago; blinkers applied. |
6/5 |

6 (4) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Seemingly aided by cheekpieces on recent outings and got off the mark with front-running success at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm; front pair well clear) in July, on ninth start; beaten at short odds over 2m since but still ran well, and remains one to be interested in. |
9/2 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Seemingly aided by cheekpieces on recent outings and got off the mark with front-running success at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm; front pair well clear) last month; 8lb higher here but could still have more to offer over today's longer trip; respected. |

30th Sep 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Sole win from 14 starts came at Bath (1m4f, good to firm) last June on his final start for Richard Hughes; failed to make an impact in four starts over hurdles for Harry Derham and he's struggled in three outings since joining this stable; tries this trip on the Flat for the first time. |
