21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Dual C&D winner, but has raced exclusively over 7f since December and was successful over that distance here four weeks ago; has to prove he still has the speed for this trip, but his course record makes him hard to dismiss. |
4/1 |

1st 6 (4) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Eight wins on the AW include three at this track (6f/7f), the last win coming off 2lb lower at Wolverhampton last month; ran well when runner-up here 16 days ago and there's no reason why he can't go well again. |

Eight wins on the AW including three over 6f/7f here; still 2lb above his highest winning mark and will need things to pan out right from the outside stall, but one for the shortlist nonetheless. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Runner-up eight times but left Stuart Williams for 3,400gns and as a 22-race maiden; ran well when trying this headgear combination once before (early last year) but wouldn't be the percentage call. |

21-race maiden but eight times a runner-up, including over C&D last month; two defeats over 6f have followed and he has the widest stall to overcome; Rossa Ryan returns to the saddle. |

23rd Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won on handicap debut at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) last August; been up and down since but she bounced back with a close third over C&D two weeks ago; did clear best of the hold-up performers in that race and she's a big player if she can back that up. |

3rd 8 (9) |
9th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Form over 7f since handicapping features a win at Carlisle and creditable fourth at Redcar, both times shaping as if she'll be as effective back up in trip; could go well. |

0-16 but has made the frame eight times; has been racing over further on turf, but shouldn't have a problem with the drop in trip back on the AW and drops to this level for the first time; shortlisted. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Contrasting efforts over C&D on last two starts, finishing a respectable third to Moon Over The Sea then below-par fifth to Virtual Hug; still a maiden and his chance of finally winning partly depends on the effects of first-time eyeshield. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Frequent Wolverhampton winner who's 0-12 on turf, including in his Irish days (has 4lb lower mark than on the AW); very consistent, though, and should get the good pace he wants, so every chance he gets involved again. |
7/1 |

Made the frame several times for her previous yard including on the AW, but modest so far in five starts for this yard and now 0-23; hard to fancy, even in this company. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Yard, who also run Lil Wade, ended a losing run early in the week; this longstanding maiden, who hasn't achieved much in four runs since leaving Ed Dunlop, isn't obviously fancied. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 19 starts came here on the AW over 7f in January and she ran well here over 6f 19 days ago, keeping on into third to do best of those from off the pace; step back up in trip will suit but he's yet to be placed in four starts on turf. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Just one win from 17 starts but that came off a similar mark here (7f) in January; no impact in last four runs but he ran well for a long way at Wolverhampton last time and is not ruled out on this drop back to 6f. |

Seven AW wins include one over C&D, and his two most recent 7f runs, here in February and at Southwell 11 days ago, were up there with his best efforts over the last year; likely to need extra from a high draw though. |

Wetherby juvenile winner for Sam England last October (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); some fair form since, and an interesting contender after his 2l-third to Spartan Times (who is now 4lb worse off) in a C&D handicap two weeks ago. |
