30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Struck form on AW last October, his form figures of 112251 rounding out with a win at Wolverhampton (7f) in January; came back from 189-day break when the run looked needed at Carlisle last month; should step forward from that although this may be another stepping stone to his return to AW. |

19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
First three wins were on turf but last three have come on Tapeta; only 1lb higher than for his Wolverhampton win in January but that was a Class 5 and he finished out the back in his final run during the winter; now goes back up in grade and he has work to do after 189 days off. |

11th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Completed a double over C&D in November and he got back on the scoresheet when making all at Wolverhampton (7f) three weeks ago; that was a narrow success but he's only 1lb higher and could make another bold bid back in trip. |

8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a long losing run at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) in April and he's held his form back on turf since, including a close call at Salisbury (6f, soft) and a 2l sixth in a big field at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last month; still looks on a workable mark and he could be a big factor back on AW. |

Arrives in top form after a 7f win at Kempton and two second places over 6f; hard to knock and should be thereabouts. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Both wins have been on Tapeta at Southwell and latest was on his reappearance in June; held in fifth on his return visit the following month but he posed a serious threat before his effort flattened out in the closing stages; has a better draw this time and he's a player if he gets a good pace and some luck. |
13/2 |

5th 7 (11) |
27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Below best on this track in November but he had won in good style over C&D the time before and seemed to appreciate the return to Southwell (7f) last month when he scored by overhauling one who has won both starts since (other subsequent winners behind); major player back up 3lb. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
His last three wins have been over 7f and latest was in December 2024; well handicapped on old form but he finished in rear in his final two runs in the spring and looks opposable back from four months off. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

Winless since 2024 and winless in sprints since 2023; said to have hung left when well beaten on his return to turf seven weeks ago and only holds outside claims. |

Hindered by traffic issues last time (AW); the 9yo hasn't won since 2024 but is nicely weighted, especially if Lewis Chalkley's 7lb claim is taken into account. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who hasn't progressed since making a promising start to her career last year; however, there have been hints that this first crack at 1m will suit, when keeping on for fifth at both Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in January and Leicester (6f, good to firm) this month; not discounted. |

5th 1 (1) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Ffos Las (6f, good) win on debut; close fifth in a 7f AW handicap in January represents her best form but two heavy defeats have followed; has her first run in a 0-70 and with a tongue-tie added; not solid. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D win off this mark in March; knocking at the door on most recent AW appearances and latest down-the-field run in the Leger Legends event at Doncaster is easy to excuse as he saw no daylight; another to consider. |
8/1 |

8th 2 (8) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Campaigned over 7f in recent times but shapes as if this return to 1m will suit; in form, having made the frame on AW in last three starts; effective on turf; strong contender under Sammy Jo Bell, who has ridden the winner of this race three times. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Defied this mark over C&D last October but he's been up and down since and was laboured back at this track in August; comes with risks attached and he needs to bounce back again. |
12/1 |

7th 8 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Winner here off 2lb lower last October, his third over C&D; last month's Chester comeback from a short break should have brought him on and he holds each-way claims under Oisin Murphy, who boasts a good record for the yard. |
8/1 |

7th 6 (10) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time AW winner who was knocking on the door at Wolverhampton (8.6f/7f) in his final two starts in the spring; only 1lb higher than for his last run but this is tougher back up in grade and he's 1-25 on turf; has some work to do from high draw after a break. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Six Tapeta wins include four over C&D; on dangerous mark but he bled from the nose at Southwell on his penultimate run and also had a small amount of blood in his mouth before a tame effort over C&D two weeks ago; continues to edge down the weights but he has a patchy profile and others are preferred; cheekpieces added. |

18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

14th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

Kickstarted 2026 with success at Wolverhampton (7f) in January and got back on track when seventh of 12 in another 7f handicap there two weeks ago given he was impeded early in the straight. |
