6th 9 (5) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Well backed when winning here on the AW over 1m4f in December but never featured when beating only one rival home 19 days ago; 0-9 on turf and others are preferred. |
12/1 |

7th 3 (5) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Well backed when winning over C&D in December off a 2lb lower mark (ridden by Myla Coppins); the odd solid effort since and he can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |
|
9th 3 (13) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not the most consistent, but has won six times on the AW including five over 1m4f/1m5f at Lingfield; has run well here, but stall 13 isn't ideal even over this trip. |

9st 12lb |
3-36; back to winning ways, clinging on in a similar C&D apprentices' handicap (0-65) on Saturday; the promising Conor Whiteley retains the ride, and she'll be a threat to all if taking her chance again 48 hours on from that success. |

1st 5 (4) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Infrequent winner but she made a promising return from a 108-day break here two weeks ago; talented claimer takes off a valuable 3lb; shortlisted. |

Easy winner of a 1m handicap at Southwell last September when 9lb lower; up and down since and needs to be at her best to take this after 108 days off. |

Record of 1-21, the win in September 2022; fair fourth over 7f at Redcar two runs back, but not so good there next time (1m); others preferred. |
14/1 |
|
8th 10 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Gained sole success in 2022 but her record over 7f at Redcar features two short-head defeats last term and a respectable fourth in latest outing; in the mix, provided she's as effective back at 1m. |
7/1 |
|
4th 7 (9) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

On a long losing run; has a fair record here, is suited by 7f and fast ground and is likely to come on for her reappearance run at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) earlier in the month. |

30th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
This six-time winner (all AW) showed the benefit of last month's return when making the frame at Wolverhampton 15 days ago (wasn't ideally placed); could be about to strike; Oisin Murphy rides the horse and for the stable for the first time. |
5/1 |

4th 4 (10) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Back to winning ways at Southwell (1m) in March; off three months, never a threat in another 1m handicap there 15 days ago; this dual C&D scorer can take a step forward now. |
14/1 |
|
10th 14 (10) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Dual C&D winner, latterly off 4lb lower in the spring; switches from a visor to first-time cheekpieces back from a few months off and the new headgear will need to eke out a bit more. |

3rd 5 (8) |
13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 53y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
A five-time AW winner, he shaped as if in need of the run when fourth on his first turf Flat run since 2023 at Newmarket (1m1f, good) last month; this should put him right for an AW campaign this autumn. |
9/1 |
|
4th 12 (8) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
AW regular whose only turf run since 2023 was over hurdles; gave good account when midfield in valuable Lingfield handicap (1m4f) on Good Friday but doesn't look the percentage call on first start for 169 days. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (14) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-12 but very nearly got off the mark at Bath (1m, heavy) last month and again ran well when 2l third of 11 at Kempton (1m, AW) last time; can be in the mix and very testing conditions would boost her claims. |
9/1 |

3rd 8 (6) |
24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ploughed through deep ground when upped to 1m at Bath this month, finding just a stablemate too strong; 1m2f on similar ground was perhaps a step too far last time; can get back on track if taking to AW. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Dual Newcastle winner who added two turf victories last autumn, all off lower marks; consistently below market expectations of late and will want to settle better than over C&D last time, coming from stall 13 under a jockey taking just her third ride. |

7th 11 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Scored twice (around 1m) at Ayr and Beverley last summer; back in decent nick in 2026, fifth in 8.5f Beverley handicap 22 days ago; ought to be in the shake-up again from an easing mark. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sole turf success came at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in August; he is now 16lb higher after a productive spell on AW and finished 12l adrift when returned to turf over C&D last month; down the list despite his yard being in fine form. |
33/1 |

8th 10 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three 1m wins on Southwell AW this year; has also won on turf but he's 15lb higher than when last seen on grass in the autumn so needs to show his form on this surface can keep pace with the AW improvement. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Record over C&D currently reads 22115112; didn't look to have any excuses in a race run to suit here three weeks ago and it's possible he's reached his ceiling mark now, but he's ultra consistent and looks set to get involved once again. |

13yo who reappeared with a win at Southwell in May before a good third over this C&D next time; however, he was well beaten at the former track last time and needs to bounce back. |

6/1 |

3rd 8 (9) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

No sign at all of age wearying him during the winter, having won over C&D in November, and he returned from a break as fresh as paint with a 7f win at Southwell last month; back up 4lb; one of a few to consider. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Ended long losing run at Brighton last month for Ruby Criscuolo; that came over 1m4f in first-time cheekpieces (back to a visor today) and he's strugged twice since; No Knee Never may be his yard's best chance. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
Cosy winner of 1m4f amateur riders' race at Brighton last month; awkward start and just modest late gains on Lingfield AW since; has run respectably over this C&D but 0-18 on AW; hood returns in place of cheekpieces. |
8/1 |

8th 8 (5) |

All three wins were 8.6f on Wolverhampton Tapeta but he's been third on all four visits here; having been back to his best with latest win 11 days ago, and run creditably under Jude Maher the time before; each-way claims. |
6/1 |

1st 1 (13) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Two-time C&D winner who comes here on the back of a good running-on fourth of nine in 7f handicap here two weeks ago; a player off the same mark with this step back up in trip also a plus and Oisin Murphy now up. |
5/1 |

4th 2 (2) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual 8.6f course winner during the winter and left low-key reappearance run behind when placed over that trip here in July; current mark ought to be workable but he needs to prove himself over 7f and is only Jude Maher's second ride under rules. |

Has dropped 11lb lower than when making a successful handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) last December, for a reason though and his last three starts (including two since a second wind op) were particularly poor; swaps cheekpieces for a hood. |

All of his four AW wins have been at Southwell and latest was over C&D in May; well handicapped on that form but he's lost his way and was beaten 9l after a slow start at Wolverhampton last time; returns to his favoured track but he needs a major revival. |

28th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Has secured all four wins at Southwell, the latest off 1lb lower in May; sure to be suited by this return to Tapeta but has questions to answer after two poor turf runs (6f/7.4f). |
