26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Four AW wins from 5f to 7f; respectable sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) before two visits to Chester where she was scuppered by the widest stall on the first occasion and then raced freely when better drawn a month ago; could go well if giving herself a chance. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Four AW wins from 5f to 7f; good sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) before scuppered by the widest stall over 7f here four weeks ago; better boxed this afternoon and she likes to be handy in her races; interesting. |
7/2 |

8th 6 (10) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
A four-time AW winner (from 5f to 7f) this year and ran really well when third over 7.5f here (good) in May; too keen when well held in big-field Goodwood handicap (7f) but looked back in form when sixth of 12 at York (6f, good) 15 days ago; drawn widest. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won his maiden over C&D in February, since when he's been turned over four times as favourite in handicaps; last two efforts, including one having been gelded, were particularly poor, and leave him plenty to prove; stable in fine form, though. |
5/1 |

8th 1 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Bang in form on the AW before going off too fast when made favourite for his turf debut in a 6f handicap at Ripon; remains of interest and looks sharp enough for 5f; gelded since. |
3/1 |
|
8th 5 (6) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough at Wolverhampton (6f, maiden; 4-1) in February; has bettered that since (on RPRs) with narrow defeats at Lingfield and Newcastle; 2lb higher again, but possible he can stake a claim if proving as effective on turf (debut). |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Front-runner who made all when bolting up over C&D in January and nearly capitalised on his slipping mark when beaten a short head back here 19 days ago; looked unlucky not to go even closer when third of eight here on Tuesday after missing the break; should go well again, especially with a cleaner start. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Record is 2-16, both wins on AW; produced a bold bid (nearly made all) last time, taking C&D record to 132; back up 3lb but has solid claims kept to this scenario. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 8 (7) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Often makes the running, as when winning over C&D off 4lb lower in January; yet to show anything on turf, so his latest Chester flop looks best written off, but there's other pace in here. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Both wins have came on AW over 6f at Wolverhampton; raced too freely when a beaten favourite here (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; steps back up in trip and needs to settle better to give herself a chance of getting home. |
4/1 |

5th 5 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Dual Wolverhampton winner earlier in the year, latterly off a 2lb higher mark, who found the race not panning out her way under a hold-up ride last time; having the vastly experience Taryn Langley take off 5lb won't hurt and she's one to consider. |
9/4 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual 6f AW winner this year; kept on for very respectable fourth in 0-70 contest over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago and is 1lb lower today; probably won't be far away. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Gained a first win at the eleventh attempt at Brighton (1m) in June and not disgraced under an aggressive ride when sixth at Chepstow (1m) 19 days ago; considered off a 2lb lower mark. |
7/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark at the 11th attempt at Brighton (1m, good to firm) eight days ago; needs to contend with a 6lb penalty but she may have more in her locker and is in with a big shout. |
3/1 |

1st 3 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |

Yard had a few easy winners of late, including a couple at big prices; this filly, who threatened to pick up a small handicap when the hood first went on, has had excuses the past twice and is one to consider. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
String of consistent efforts since her AW win last summer, including from a wide stall back on turf six weeks ago; no obvious reason she won't give her running again in a race in which a few have something to prove. |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
One win from 16 starts, over 6f on Kempton AW last August; in the frame on sand six times since but she hardly shifts in the weights; probably handles turf but needs a bit more for the return to this surface if she's to get her head in front again. |
9/1 |

4th 5 (1) |

Her only win from 15 attempts came over this C&D and that was her sole appearance at Kempton; not beaten far off this mark in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f) 16 days ago; each-way shout once more. |

Gained a first win at Kempton (6f) in March; underwhelming on turf subsequently but back on track with third of eight in 6f Wolverhampton handicap nine days ago; must enter calculations off the same mark. |

|
3rd 6 (7) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Bath blowout in the spring can be ignored but he started a big price when last of seven on his return from a break a fortnight ago; while the return to the AW may do the trick, others hold stronger claims. |
14/1 |

7th 3 (4) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Got off the mark at Kempton (6f, AW) in March; didn't look in love with the track when down the field at Windsor subsequently and a line can also be put through his last run at Bath when he was almost brought down when about to deliver his chance; not one to give up on. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won in first-time blinkers for William Haggas at Newcastle (6f) in January but she's not come close to that form in seven subsequent runs for two different yards; now 3lb lower than for her win but overall record is 1-13 and others are preferred; headgear removed. |
16/1 |

5th 2 (4) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Displayed improvement to win in first-time blinkers for William Haggas at Newcastle (6f) in January but subsequent 6f/7f form for two different stables has been disappointing (latest run was her first in a visor); drops to 5f with quite a bit to prove. |
20/1 |

8th 9 (3) |
9th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |

9st 9lb |
0-8 before return to form for a narrow front-running win at Lingfield (7f, AW) six days ago; that was an apprentice race, when ridden by Oliver Hoodless, so he can race off same mark today, but there is more to prove on turf form. |
100/30 |

1st 5 (2) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-8 and the step up in trip made no difference at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) 11 days ago; this intermediate distance may suit him better, but improvement is required; hood removed after one use. |
