21st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Two wins in the first half of the year, including C&D, and he has performed with credit on his last three starts; likely to be in the thick of it once more. |

4th 8 (2) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
C&D winner in April off a 2lb lower mark than today's and he raced wide when second of 13 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in July; drops back in trip with good claims. |

2nd 3 (11) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual winner at around 1m early in the year, latterly off 1lb lower, who's been this far only once (C&D last backend), when well held; offered more last time but stamina remains a worry. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All six wins have been on the AW, the most recent coming at Southwell (1m, AW) in February; he was in fair form when last seen four months ago but has failed to beat a rival home in each of his three starts on turf. |
9/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Another who is enjoying a fine winter, winning for the fifth time when seeing off ten rivals at Southwell last month; steadily-run race no good to him at Newcastle on Saturday and he's capable of bouncing back quickly. |
9/2 |
|
9th 3 (7) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Progressive gelding who has won four of his last eight starts and was a close second at Wolverhampton (9.4f, Tapeta) two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off only 1lb higher than for that last run and he's a big player again on this drop back in trip. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Went handicapping off a high mark after two good runs in AW maiden and novice events; on this career-low mark for last two starts at Wolverhampton (about 1m) and involved in a tight finish there last week; not far away. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 8 (3) |
17th Feb 2026 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
0-14, but appears to have reached a mark he can win from judging by his second of nine behind a subsequent winner over C&D six weeks ago; a player if building on that. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won on turf as a 2yo for Clive Cox; dual AW winner (1m/7f) for this yard in January but poor last time when the race reportedly came too soon; has been freshened up and might bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
7th 1 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in January, when 12lb lower; followed up at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta); went close from this mark when fourth back there (8.5f) on his penultimate start; respectable second at Lingfield latest but if back in the form of that penultimate effort, he'd have strong claims. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two Tapeta wins in January, over 1m and 7f, and better form when a close fourth (off this mark) at Wolverhampton 11 days ago (8.6f); the second and third there have both won since and he is a solid contender back down into a Class 6. |

20th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Scored over C&D (second course win) last month off 3lb lower; ran below that level subsequently at Ayr on soft; should be more at home back here. |
7/1 |

8th 10 (12) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
C&D winner in May and also runner-up here in June/July (all good to firm; won on soft in Ireland earlier in career); has ended the summer in equally good form, including getting his head back in front at Newcastle (1m) 12 days ago but he's yet to win back to back in his 54-race career. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Goes really well round here and gained a fourth C&D success in July; posted another good effort with third of eight in 1m2f AW Lingfield handicap in August; well in the mix after a break. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 1 (7) |
13th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Has won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, Tapeta) in four of his last six starts, including a comfortable success from a wide draw three weeks ago; up another 4lb but he still looks feasibly treated and this return to Polytrack should be fine; big player in hat-trick bid. |
4/1 |
|
1st 2 (13) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made it 3-3 over C&D when winning off a 3lb lower mark five weeks ago (ridden from off the pace by Jack Callan that night and may be again from stall 13); stable flying this month, with seven winners from its last 15 runners at the start of the day, and he holds good claims. |

5th 2 (8) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Not quite at best on last two turf starts but now only 2lb higher than when leading close home at Kempton (1m) in May, and this longer trip won't be a problem; a possible. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D win for Marco Botti last summer came off an 8lb higher mark; threatened to add to his tally this summer and this is easier again but he's run below par the past twice; needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |
|
10th 5 (4) |
2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Sole win from 18 starts came at Southwell (7f, AW) last June for Marco Botti; solid fourth of 12 in a higher grade than this at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) two starts back and a wide trip can be given as an excuse for a lesser effort on the AW over 1m two weeks ago; could bounce back. |
12/1 |
|
10th 1 (13) |
17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Only 1-17 and the win, over 7f here last summer, was for Marco Botti; however, good runs on either side of a break at Doncaster (7f), latterly close up in a race not run to suit; stays 1m and probably needs it now. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Easily best known for his achievements at Wolverhampton, so he returns to serious calculations after two runs elsewhere; first-time blinkers make this a very rare run on headgear, though, and he was behind in the others. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

2nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |

Exposed 6yo who excels at Wolverhampton where's he won five times and yet on turf he's 1-19; close fourth on his favourite patch 12 days ago and 4lb lower back on the grass, but he wouldn't be the percentage call on first visit here. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

6f win for George Scott on turf last summer; edging down the weights for current stable while suggesting he retains a fair level of ability; Rossa Ryan replaces an apprentice this time; not discounted. |
