1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
His first three starts saw him well beaten over 7f but he has not looked back since dropped to 6f, winning seven times and placed on his other three runs; could only manage second at Chelmsford five weeks ago but the horse to beat him is now rated 17lb higher and that shouldn't be used as evidence he is in the handicapper's grip; more to prove back on turf and at a new trip but few arrive in better form. |

2nd 7 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Justified favouritism in Class 5 event at Kempton last time, taking record this year to 3-3 and overall strike-rate over 6f on AW to 7-9; he is 1-1 at Chelmsford; progressive sort who brings excellent stats and commands respect upped further in grade. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won three classifieds (one was a dead-heat) and three handicaps in just over a year; came from last place at the top of the straight to win going away at Lingfield last time; can't dismiss with 7lb rise justified. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Chance on this winter's AW best but he failed to fire back on turf at Goodwood last week (5f); return to 6f can help but others are stronger. |
25/1 |
|
8th 5 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
His three wins have come over 6f/7f including at Goodwood (good to soft) last summer and at Kempton (off 3lb lower) in January; made some late gains when a creditable third at Kempton last month but this is a different test and his tactical speed will be tested on this first try at 5f. |
8/1 |

3rd 7 (6) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ran on well to win a Class 4 over C&D in January; respectable efforts since, including when sixth of seven behind Em Four and Brazen Idol here two weeks ago (held up in a race where the front two dominated); still feasibly weighted. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, two seconds and a third to his name from 11 starts over C&D; beaten as favourite (behind Farandaway) here a month ago but is on a workable mark now and one to consider back under Rossa Ryan. |
4/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won six times in the first half of 2025, three of them over C&D; close third at Kempton last time and he should go well for a stable who were in fine form in February (6-12). |
4/1 |
|
3rd 6 (4) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All six wins came on AW in 2025; caught the eye both starts this time around (finished behind Em Four latest) and is back on his last winning mark now; trainer red hot; chance may hinge on how well Callum Shepherd, who has done a good job in the past, can settle him. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two AW wins (6f and 5f) from his last five starts and running well on turf too; not beaten far when third of five at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) this month; player if this forecast slower ground is no issue. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice on turf last year (as well as once on AW) and he has continued on an upward curve in 2026, winning for the third time this season when making all at Wolverhampton 12 days ago; that was his first success at this trip and there could be more to come at 5f; 6lb rise demands progress though. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice on the AW this year, the most recent from a 2lb lower mark at Kempton (6f); creditable third on turf at Leicester (6f, good; 3-1 favourite) last week; how he'll cope with dropping back to 5f (0-4) remains to be seen; isn't discounted. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner last spring off a 4lb higher mark who finished a clear second on his return to turf nine days ago; 2lb higher now but having Jack Callan (1-11 for the yard) up to take off 3lb won't hurt; one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 9 (7) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins from 18 starts; dropping to 5f wouldn't have suited at Lingfield in February but he was too free at Kempton (6f) when last seen 78 days ago; switches back to turf with others preferred. |
16/1 |

6th 7 (3) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Dropping back to 5f at Lingfield 11 days ago wouldn't have suited but was no match for Em Four at Chelmsford the time before; opposable. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Retains plenty of ability aged nine and rallied well for neck success over C&D most recently, taking AW record to 11-69; back up the weights but won off this mark in 2022 and 2024; may remain competitive. |
13/2 |
|
1st 3 (4) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ten-time AW winner who boasts a consistent record over C&D; high enough in the weights but his latest Kempton effort, back from a break, is best overlooked and the return here won't hurt. |
8/1 |
|
7th 1 (6) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Down in the weights before winning back to back last summer; held form quite well after, going down narrowly in sprint series final last time; Jack Gilligan steered him to success the last time he climbed aboard; sound claims back from short break. |
