27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Won a Nottingham handicap over 1m2f on third start last season (good to firm); several good runs without winning after that; lacks a recent run and seems high enough in the ratings at present. |
16/1 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Narrowly made all over C&D in May off 3lb lower; inconsistent since, wearing cheekpieces on last four outings, but she appeared to run very well from off the pace when 66-1 in a Listed race on latest outing; back up 3lb but considered for a place. |

9st 4lb |
Made all to win a Nottingham handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in May; came up short in two previous attempts at Listed level, though; inconsistent in cheekpieces on last three starts; soft ground no bother but plenty to find. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Seven wins this year (1m-1m4f, including on good to soft; unraced on softer) and looked better than ever when close third of 11 at Nottingham (1m2f, good to soft) last time; in the mix if handling the ground. |
15/2 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Can make the running; highly progressive 4yo until a lesser result at Ayr on latest outing but being hampered at the start seemed to scupper him; had seven wins May-August and went mighty close at the Doncaster St Leger meeting last month; 5lb higher today but he remains one for the shortlist. |
100/30 |
|
10 (10) |
18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Highly progressive 4yo who made it seven wins from his last nine starts when scoring at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last month, and he was a close second of 14 off this mark at Doncaster last Thursday (1m4f, good to soft; unraced on softer); reappears before 5lb rise kicks in and holds very solid claims. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Dual winner over 1m2f on turf (good/good to firm) this year and just 1lb higher than for the latest; shaped quite well in both previous goes on the AW; shortlisted back down in grade. |
6/1 |
|
3 (6) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
1m2f turf wins this May and June, the latter when tongue tied first time (kept since); ran respectably at 1m4f on last two starts (three places behind Crowd Quake at Doncaster on latest) but return to 1m2f may suit. |
11/2 |
|
5th 11 (8) |
11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
1m2f turf winner this May and June, the latter when tongue tied first time (kept since); creditable third of six when trying 1m4f on Lingfield AW on latest outing, but a previous attempt at 1m4f on turf was not so good; unraced on softer than good; others look a bit more solid. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 7f 212y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Two-time soft-ground winner who won off 3lb higher at Ripon (1m, good to soft) in April; however, his subsequent form has been mixed and he was beaten a long way at Hamilton (1m, soft) recently. |
16/1 |

11th 9 (12) |
28th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won narrowly off 1lb higher at Ripon in April to end a spell that improved his strike-rate markedly; has lacked consistency since, however, and failed to show his form in lower grade most recently. |
20/1 |

6th 1 (4) |
17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |

Likes give underfoot but has won on good ground; on last winning mark (April) and he was closing on the principals in a Class 2 at Ripon late last month; respected in his bid to go one better than 12 months ago. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Not as good now and has his share of off days; back on a winning mark, though, has a C&D win to his name and this is less competitive than he's used to returning from ten weeks off. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 4 (7) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
His five wins include one over C&D last May; below his best on his first two starts this year but took a step back in the right direction when a 2l fifth of 12 at Ripon (1m2f, good) 19 days ago; contender. |

Dual 1m2f winner but below his best in four Flat runs this year; beaten about 12l on previous run over hurdles last November; he's not crying out to be backed. |
9/2 |

6th 2 (8) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Dual 1m2f winner who was below par over 1m in the latest start of a light 2026 campaign; gained his handicap success off 4lb higher; attractively treated back up in distance. |
14/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Both wins have been over 1m2f and latest was at this course last August; now 2lb lower but he's been well held in both runs this season and is untried at this trip; something to prove in another switch of headgear. |

18th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Nottingham and Newbury (both 1m2f on good) last August and she's been admirably consistent since, including with four runner-up efforts this season; still 3lb higher than for her last win but this step back up in trip is no problem and she's respected with Ryan Moore booked. |
5/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
She remains 5lb higher than for her last win last August but that's because she's been admirably consistent in defeat this year, finishing second again at Hamilton (1m4f, good to firm; acts on soft) seven weeks ago; likely to give another good account. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Veteran who completed a quickfire double last autumn but is 0-13 since and his second-place finish in June has not been backed up, kept to Brighton since; opposed. |
5/1 |

5th 1 (4) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Long in the tooth now and not firing on all cylinders this season but, from a reduced mark, ran well in defeat over C&D (good to firm) in June; had excuse (lame) when below form here last month; big player if all goes to plan this time. |
7/1 |

7th 6 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Four Flat wins, including two (1m2f-1m3f) for Ian Williams; runner-up in a Class 5 at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) in July; potential over hurdles in novice and maiden company back in 2024, so he could be interesting on handicap hurdle debut; first start for Olly Murphy. |
2/1 |

2nd 2 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice in Britain for current yard since winning twice in France; however, beaten 21l at Leicester (1m2f, good) last month following five-month layoff and lacks the scope of his rivals. |
20/1 |
|
9th 11 (11) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won a 1m3f Class 5 handicap at Southwell in October and slightly better form when collared late over 1m2f at Lingfield in January; broke out of stalls and withdrawn at Kempton 11 days later (10-1 at the time); now returns to turf after a break but he's a dual winner in this sphere and is versatile ground-wise; possibilities. |

9st 8lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; off the mark for the season at Musselburgh (1m5f) in August but ran moderately on soft ground (runner-up on it once last November) 12 days ago; worth going beyond 1m5f for first time. |
12/1 |

5th 5 (11) |
21st Sep 2026 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Off the mark for the season at Musselburgh last time and closely matched with Perseus Way on form here in July (1m5f, good); each-way chance. |
