6th 1 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Five-time AW winner who was getting off the mark on turf at the 16th attempt when successful at Nottingham (6f, good) eight days ago; however, he was well beaten over this C&D (soft) yesterday. |
4/1 |

8th 8 (1) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Five-time AW winner who belatedly opened his account on turf when coming from off the pace to win at Nottingham (6f, good) a week ago; has form on ground slower than good and has to be respected under a 4lb penalty. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Conditions to suit and he is on a winning mark but it has been a long time since he won above Class 6 company; others are stronger. |
25/1 |

6th 8 (8) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Came from off the pace when winning at Southwell (7f, AW) in March but he's been below that level in three starts since; all five wins on turf have been at Brighton and others have stronger claims. |

3rd 7 (9) |
8th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Both wins over C&D, the latest 17 days ago with Faster Bee winning the other division in a faster time; he is only 3lb higher, but like that gelding is drawn higher this time; will need a bit more. |
4/1 |
|
1st 2 (3) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Poor strike-rate (1-27) but has twice been edged out in tight finishes recently, latterly when failing to reel in Gladiadora at Southwell (7f; 9-1); pestered for the lead, reportedly running "too free", when disappointing over C&D 11 days ago; possible. |
100/30 |
|
9th 12 (9) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Record of 1-26 but he was runner-up behind Romanovich over C&D last month and had another close call at Southwell (7f) 13 days ago; nudged up 1lb but he should be in the thick of things again. |

3rd 8 (6) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the 18th attempt with a last-gasp success in a 0-50 classified race over C&D last month; no impact back in a handicap here ten days later but he was hampered early on and still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; not ruled out. |
6/1 |
|
6th 8 (2) |
16th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won on the nod in C&D classified contest ten days ago, belatedly opening his account; hit with a 9lb rise in his mark but may remain competitive, provided that form is backed up. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed 21-race maiden; went close in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in November but raced freely and dropped away over that C&D last month; down in grade but he will need to settle better back up in trip. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (6) |
27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-20 but was running well when last seen in November and has a solid record at this track; thereabouts. |
100/30 |
|
4th 6 (6) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
18-race maiden but placed in four of his last six starts (all in classified events from 6f-9.5f); experienced apprentice booked and he's more appealing than many. |

27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Wins have been here over 6f and at Chelmsford over 7f; recent efforts not overly encouraging, the latest here four days ago. |

23rd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner; ended 2025 with some fair runs here but he needs to raise his game if he is to record a second win. |

6th 3 (3) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Fairly uncompetitive in all his nine races, in this headgear combination in last two starts; needs to find something from somewhere and there are doubts about the slow ground. |
14/1 |
|
7th 9 (4) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Unplaced all eight starts; seemingly aided by first-time hood when respectable fourth of seven at Bath (1m2f, firm) last month but needs to find something extra over this longer trip. |
16/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Seven-race maiden who last two efforts (8.5f/1m4f, AW) suggest this return to 1m2f, combined with first-time hood, may prove ideal; improvement is not out of the question. |
