12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Has won three times, including here over 1m3f in February off a mark 5lb lower than today's, and he was beaten only a nose by Must Believe here in May; didn't quite get home here over 2m last month and will be suited by this drop back in trip; has claims. |
10/1 |

4th 5 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Gained a first success at Southwell (1m3f) in November and has added two more AW victories since, including over 1m3f here; not disgraced with fifth of 15 at Newbury (1m4f) last time and well in the mix if his stamina holds out on his first run beyond 1m4f. |

5th 7 (12) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
AW record since November reads 12112 and he was beaten a nose at Kempton 11 days ago; however, his record on turf is 85000, including a tailed-off run at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) last month, so there are loud warning bells today. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 22 starts came in a maiden at Newcastle (7f, AW) in October 2024; has placed form on turf, including when third of eight at Windsor last month, but his best form has been on the AW. |
5/1 |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |

1-21; has been placed a few times on turf but his best form has come on the AW, albeit he was well held at Wolverhampton (1m4f) on Friday; others stronger. |
10/1 |

5th 2 (7) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Sole win in AW maiden as 3yo, from 20 races; there's plenty of evidence that he can be on the premises, though, including his third here in January on a rare run at 1m4f. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Proven winner who's turned in two solid efforts for Tom Kiely-Marshall lately, backing up his Newcastle win off 5lb lower with a second on turf (again from the front); hard to discount him in current form. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Ten career wins divided between turf and the AW; well on top last time at Newcastle under Tom Kiely-Marshall but back up 5lb and it's been over two years since he defied a mark in the 70s. |
3/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest of his nine wins was over C&D in February off a 1lb higher mark; that helps show that he needs a second look, despite mixed fortunes since. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
16-race maiden (Flat/hurdles) but he was runner-up on the Flat at Yarmouth (1m4f, good; first-time cheekpieces) last October; has made the frame over hurdles in recent starts but others look stronger. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
15-race maiden under all codes but has reached the frame on all three occasions since switched to handicap hurdles; down another 1lb and back in trip, but needs to find more to open his account. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 |
1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Third in both his handicaps and finished with a rattle in the latest at Perth (2m, good); on the back of that and raised in distance, he's firmly in the reckoning. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Didn't run badly when fourth of nine in an apprentice handicap at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) on his penultimate start, but is just 1-26 and most of his best form has come on the AW. |
7/1 |
|
7th 6 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Sole success came over 1m4f here (for Barry Brennan) in March 2024; in decent nick for his current yard, staying on into fourth of nine at Newbury (1m3f) 15 days ago so not ruled out back up in trip. |
9/1 |

4th 11 (10) |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner (including over C&D) last spring; failed to beat a rival on his last three outings and has lots to prove after a layoff. |
8/1 |

8th 2 (8) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
7-47 on AW but has struggled for form since finishing third at Newcastle (1m, Class 5; from 12lb higher) last November; failed to beat a rival in each of his last two starts (9.4f/1m4f) so it's difficult to have confidence. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Scored at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in March but not proving the easiest to catch right since, finishing just a fair third of six at Brighton (1m) 16 days ago; others are preferred. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has somewhat mixed record since joining this stable about a year ago but won on Tapeta (1m2f) in March and posted good effort when keeping-on third at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) a fortnight ago; still on a workable mark; must be considered. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins off higher marks; has an inconsistent profile and hasn't built on April's Pontefract second in two subsequent outings but he might have just needed it at Brighton recently after three months off. |
8/1 |
