4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Prolific winner at 1m-1m1f on good or slower; inconsistent this season but has slipped to a workable mark and, if in the same form as at Ripon on penultimate start, he could have a say. |
10/1 |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Multiple wins at 1m and 1m1f (good or softer) include two over C&D; quite favourably treated now and he was a very respectable fourth at Ripon recently, when just behind a subsequent winner; needs a bit more here. |

4th 2 (6) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Two wins last year (1m/1m1f, good/soft); the last of them came in a seller and he was well beaten on last month's reappearance at Doncaster, but that was the competitive Spring Mile and he may have needed the run; won this in 2022 and he's not discounted off a handy mark. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won over C&D off this mark last summer but does most racing now over further and wants a good test at this trip; said to have run flat last time but does have his good and bad days now for a yard responsible for two others; 2-4 for Kaiya Fraser. |
12/1 |

8th 9 (6) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January and close fourth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February before winning over this C&D (good) a fortnight ago; it was a tight finish but he's gone up just 2lb; again in calculations. |
9/2 |

1st 7 (4) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
6lb lower than when winning from a poor draw at Chester (7.6f, good to firm) last August and just 1lb higher than when successful at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January; ran well when a close fourth of 12 at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time and capable of playing a part; stable also runs Kelpie Grey. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Only 1-12 for current yard but gained the success off 7lb higher in a division of this contest on reappearance last year (good ground); great chance assuming he starts this season in similar form. |
8/1 |
|
2 (5) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
He's 6lb lower than when winning over C&D (good) in March in a hood, which goes back on today; however, he's gone off the boil more recently and needs to produce more than he's managed on his last few starts. |

29th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
1lb lower than when scoring in an amateur riders' event at Goodwood (1m, good) in June, but hard to win with these days and latest close third of six came in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta); look elsewhere. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Multiple winner in his young days including over C&D, but has only managed to win two of his last 31 starts, one of which was on Jersey; may find a couple too strong. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
11-time AW winner but he's been out of sorts for new yard since December and was last of eight over C&D last time; mark is tumbling but he has lots to prove and needs a major revival. |
66/1 |
|
8th 6 (8) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All 11 wins on the AW, including one over C&D, though his latest success for the Moores was in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta) in October; out of the frame in all four starts for this yard since then and may be best watched despite his declining mark. |
12/1 |
|
10th 4 (9) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Prolific winner down the years; not fired in three runs for Chelsea Banham this winter; betting likely to guide if a revival is on the cards. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Usually slowly away; lost his form last autumn but he's thrown in judged on plenty of earlier 2025 form, never mind peak efforts; first run since he left Gemma Tutty for 9,000gns in December and the market may guide. |
14/1 |
|
11th 6 (14) |
4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Stuck on a losing run but competitive in 7f/1m handicaps this year (and a seller) and heavy ground perhaps not ideal the last time; could go well. |
