28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Windsor handicap (11.5f) last May, but he's generally struggled since, including never involved in two 1m course handicaps in recent weeks; this trip is more suitable but would need to see market support to consider. |

7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Windsor handicap (11.4f, good to firm) last May, but he's generally struggled since and was never involved on stable debut over C&D last month; has something to prove and he's still 3lb higher than for his win. |

Won on turf in the spring and was creditable second of 14 here (1m3f) in first-time blinkers in June; clearly wasn't himself when struggling here last month, after a break, and has a big role to play if back on song in first-time visor. |

Collared close home over 1m6f here last time; just as effective at 1m4f last year but nudged back up 2lb and no win since August 2024. |

Latest Kempton effort (1m4f) wasn't one of his best but he is on a feasible mark on last year's best; Rossa Ryan booked and a better effort should be forthcoming. |

4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
10-32 on the AW and as tough as old boots, going down by less than a length in his last three outings including when beaten a short head over C&D in March; likely to be bang there once again. |
13/2 |

2nd 6 (7) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
C&D record is currently three wins and two seconds from five starts; most of his career wins have come in the winter but he continues in good form and has strong claims. |
3/1 |

3rd 6 (8) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

All of his ten wins have been on AW and he had a near-miss over 1m3f at Kempton last Wednesday; on same mark here and he's a big player if he can repeat that form. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 157y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
1m2f/1m4f winner on the AW for previous yard; settled better than in his first two runs over hurdles when demoted from first place in a 2m soft-ground maiden at Fontwell 15 days ago; that was a step forward but this handicap debut demands another. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 11 |
14th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |

Dual AW middle-distance winner for Charlie Johnston; picked up for 26,000gns; inclined to pull hard in two runs over hurdles for his new yard, who won this with a 4yo last year, and needs to be more amenable upped slightly in trip round here. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Still a maiden after ten runs but has finished second in three handicaps at around 1m4f this year and again ran well when third of six at Chelmsford (13.3f) last month; usually sticks to his task pretty well; probably won't be far away. |
4/1 |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 5 |

0-9 but did bounce back from a lesser effort at Sandown (1m6f) when second at Southwell (1m4f) last month in his first handicap on AW; thereabouts with a repeat. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has unconvincing record in turf handicaps since going close in C&D maiden in May but seemed to run well when second of five at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) two starts ago; not ruled out on AW return. |
8/1 |
|
5 (3) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
A maiden after five runs but rebounded from disappointing handicap debut with keeping-on second of four at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) in July and may yet have a bigger run in him; moves up in trip today. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
26th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |

Scored on the Flat for Tom Clover at Newbury over 1m2f last May; placed in both starts over hurdles, albeit tending to jump out to the left; should improve and looks the main danger to Mister Ursus. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Six-race maiden on the Flat for Hugo Palmer; has shown promise when placed in both hurdles starts, latest when third of nine finishers at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month; looks sure to make his presence felt. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 10 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-6 on the Flat but displayed ability and there was also promise in last month's hurdle/stable debut at Taunton (2m, good), where he was runner-up to a useful (but sadly ill-fated) prospect; in good hands to progress and he could have a part to play. |
3/1 |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Safely held when fifth in first two handicaps, both times over 1m4f on turf; however, last month's Newmarket run came after a break and he might fare better now back on Polytrack and with cheekpieces refitted. |

0-8 on the Flat and he's been well held at biggish prices in three hurdle runs this winter; now switches to a handicap but opening mark looks on the high side and he needs improvement. |
9/1 |
|
5th 5 |
27th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Maiden who had plenty of chances on the Flat and has been beaten 22l and 64l in two races over hurdles at this track; admittedly, he was never going to mix it with Sober Glory last time, but probably one for handicaps. |
50/1 |
|

7th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |

0-8 on the Flat and 0-5 as a hurdler; he's modest in this discipline but was third in a handicap last time and at least he has jumping experience. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 5 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Fair on the Flat; probably only sixth best on merit when fourth on handicap debut here (2m3f, good) three weeks ago but positives can be drawn from that performance and he might have more to offer over this longer trip. |
7/1 |
|
4th 9 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
11-race maiden under both codes; tailed off in last two hurdle runs but he showed some promise when runner-up in a juvenile event here (2m2f, good to soft) in November; now goes handicapping at this new trip and he needs watching in market after 111 days off; cheekpieces reapplied. |
