25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Nine wins at this course (7f-1m4f), including three this year; remains in top form, having finished runner-up here on his last two starts; must be strongly considered on his favoured track. |
5/2 |

2nd 2 (2) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Took this in 2025 and he comes here better than ever, bagging a third course win of 2026 in February; posted a very good second in another 7f handicap here last time so rates a big player off an unchanged mark. |
5/4 |

2nd 4 (5) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Better than ever since dropped back to 7f, determinedly adding a third win from four C&D starts three weeks ago; this class didn't look beyond him when 1l third here before that, just behind stablemate Legal Reform; some wriggle room judged on peak RPRs even off a new career-high mark. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has run a number of good in defeat races this season, including fourth over C&D last month; went down only to a progressive 3yo at Newbury (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago and the third and fourth have franked that form; bold show likely. |
5/2 |

2nd 13 (1) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Exposed four-time winner; has run a number of good races this season and Doncaster last time was one of those, as he did well to finish so close after missing the break; not without hope. |

26th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Conditions to suit and he is back to the same mark off which he beat Captain Parma here in October; not at his best at Southwell last week but he is the type to bounce back quickly. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He's dropped to a mark fully 15lb lower than when a close fourth over C&D last August; however, this regressive 5yo has struggled to get competitive this year; a first-time visor replaces a tongue-tie. |
7/1 |
|
7th 5 (10) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Should be well handicapped but that has been the case for a while and his losing run stretches back 18 months; attracted support at Yarmouth last month (7f, good) but fared no better; now tried in a tongue-tie. |
12/1 |
|
8th 1 (10) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins in 2024 but he has drawn a blank since; returns to his optimum trip off a reduced mark and this is his first Class 5 handicap for some time; not solid but he has the ability to go well. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Still 4lb higher than when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in May but has been pretty consistent since rejoining Tony Carroll in March and probably won't be far away. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-35, with the latest success coming at Lingfield (7f, AW) in December off a mark 8lb higher than today's; never featured over this trip at Wolverhampton 31 days ago and better is needed. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, and most racing, come over 7f, including when making all on his second start for this yard on Polytrack off 6lb higher in the winter; not at his best lately and, while well drawn, may not get his own way as he likes back down in trip. |
16/1 |
|
7th 6 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield in December, his second start for Mark Loughnane; in and out since that success but no doubt he is handicapped to go well and he has run well over C&D in the past (including finishing second in this race year off 4lb higher); one to consider with Billy Loughnane back in the saddle. |

23rd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Useful on his day and is a stone below last winning mark but looks far from sure to take advantage, having failed to beat a rival in latest start; yet to score on AW. |
14/1 |
|
6 (11) |
8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
7-36 on turf and 0-15 on the AW, albeit in the frame on 12 occasions; 2lb lower than when chasing home Al Ameen over C&D in May, but has a high draw so others are preferred for win purposes. |
12/1 |

6th 5 (11) |
5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Patchy form since last win over a year ago and cheekpeices now replaced by first-time visor; edging down the weights but may find one or two too good from double-figure draw. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ended 2025 in good order and he was a good second over 1m here on his return in January; three heavy defeats have followed and there is likely to be other pace for him to contend with today; drops in class but others appeal more. |
16/1 |
|
8th 9 (3) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has had a couple of close calls over C&D this winter but he's lost his way in last two starts and was tailed off at Newcastle (1m) three weeks ago; has something to prove and he needs a major revival. |
25/1 |
|
12th 11 (2) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Had been in a consistent vein of form but needs to rebound from his disappointing show when favourite at Southwell most recently. |
