4th 3 (7) |
18th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Proven winner who can pull hard and did so the last time he went this far (over C&D two summers ago); things didn't pan out his way latest but there's little wiggle room off this mark back on turf after a short break. |
7/1 |

5th 3 (4) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Prevailed narrowly at Chelmsford (1m6f) last time to complete a hat-trick; climbing back up the weights but warrants respect in current form. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 (8) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Likeable sort who is back in fine form of late and arrives on a hat-trick after bagging a pair of 1m6f/1m4f handicaps at Southwell; up another 3lb but he rates a big player once more. |

5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Returned to form to win at 28-1 here (1m3f) last month and backed up that performance with close second at Kempton (1m4f); key player. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 8 (10) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Doubled her tally when popping up at 28-1 at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta; Karismatique third, Sisterandbrother fifth) ten days ago; 4lb penalty and she's not guaranteed to confirm those placings but can still make her presence felt again. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
0-7 but third in both visits here, the latest over 1m4f last month (winner has gone in again since); looked as though he would get further there and worth a second look. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 11 (3) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Denied a clear run when keeping on for third here (1m3f) last month on second handicap start; failed to match that when fifth at Kempton (1m4f) ten days later but the return to Southwell could boost his claims. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over C&D (good) last month when back on turf and back down in trip and she followed up over 1m6f here; clearly thriving and has strong claims. |
9/4 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Won at Newcastle in October and solid fourth there (also 1m4f, AW) in February; didn't stay 2m back at that track last month but a return to 1m4f did the trick when taking a course handicap (good) a fortnight ago; big player if her stamina lasts out. |
9/4 |
|
1st 7 (3) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Won at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) last October and close fourth there (1m4f, AW) in February; didn't see out 2m there last month; also effective on turf and she's one to consider now back down in trip. |

19th May 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Maiden who's found her level since cheekpieces went on, going close in similar races a couple of times earlier in the year; this the first time she's gone beyond 1m6f and she has claims if her stamina holds. |
5/1 |
|
4th 7 (9) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Inconsistent ten-race maiden but she was runner-up over C&D last month and wasn't beaten far back on turf at Beverley (1m4f) last time; tongue-tie is now added and she's in the mix back up in trip. |
7/2 |
|
6th 8 (2) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
0-9 but she wasn't far away at Newcastle (1m4f) in February and went pretty close at Southwell (1m6f) the following month; disappointed in Lingfield classified (also AW) three weeks ago but she's not entirely ruled out in this first turf handicap. |

Only 2l away over 1m4f here in early March and last win was over C&D just over a year ago; however, this veteran is usually opposable these days. |
14/1 |
|
5th 9 (4) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Veteran who gained the last six of his 12 wins on Tapeta; has not been firing on all cylinders since returning from break in October; revival needed. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |

Veteran who gained the last six of his 12 wins on Tapeta; ran fairly well from the front when fifth here (1m2f) two starts ago but has not been firing on all cylinders since returning from a break in October; others preferred. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |

18-race maiden; placed on five occasions, notably when third to Rubellite and Havachoc at Wolverhampton last month (1m6f); each-way chance. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
0-17 and he blows hot and cold but there have been some good runs in defeat on AW this year; finished behind Havachoc at Wolverhampton two weeks ago and may do so again. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
8th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
0-16 but he was third in March and backed that up with another good effort, finishing second of 11 (also Southwell, 1m6f) last month; below that level over 2m at that track three days later but he may be capable of bouncing back returned to this shorter trip. |

Some good runs in defeat in November/December, including here, but not at the same level this year and he remains a maiden after 33 starts. |

5th 9 (9) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

9th 5 (2) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back to winning ways at Southwell (1m4f) in March and has continued in good nick, undergoing wind surgery before third of 11 in 1m6f handicap there 33 days ago; very much one to consider in a change of headgear. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (10) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Inconsistent 7yo who was well held here last time but that was after an emphatic win in an amateur jockeys' event at this track (1m4f) last month; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he's effective at up to 2m; reapplied blinkers replace a visor. |
11/2 |
|
4th 7 (8) |
5th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |

Three wins on the AW, the latest a 4l success over C&D last month; 6lb rise will demand more but still respected if maintaining his form; visor returns. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Still 4lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last month, but has run well off this mark and higher in her two outings since; has finished first and second in his two starts under Myla Coppins; stable also runs Dogged; major player. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In fine form since returned to turf this spring, winning two races at about 1m3f (firm and good to firm); had a 7lb higher mark to contend with when outpointed back at Bath since but the winner wasn't badly treated on past Flat form and autumn hurdle wins; now 3lb lower; major player. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Brings good stats, being 2-2 since returned to turf from AW and 2-3 at Bath; justified favouritism at Windsor last week when avoiding a penalty for his C&D success under Myla Coppins; has to deal with revised mark and a 4lb penalty but still respected. |

5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-5 on the Flat and he's struggled in juvenile hurdles on his last three starts; however, he wasn't devoid of promise in November in his first two handicaps, not enjoying a clear run when mid-division here (1m3f) in a race that has worked out extremely well; interesting contender back on AW. |
14/1 |
|
8th 6 |
30th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
0-5 on the Flat and big odds when tailed off/pulled up last month on his first two hurdle starts (good to soft/soft; C&D last time). |
100/1 |
|
14 (14) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Finished in rear at big prices in his three qualifying runs and latest was in April; still early days but this is competitive on handicap debut and he needs a transformation upped to 1m2f. |
