24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Landed back-to-back 5f AW handicaps at Lingfield and Chelmsford early in 2026 but she's failed to beat a rival in her last three starts, back on turf at Brighton last time; hard to warm to. |
20/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Returns to turf for the first time in a year on a more sensible rating; issues at the start have been costing her of late and much will depend on how she gets away from the outside stall. |
12/1 |

4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Tough filly who took time to find her form again but won two in a row in early spring, over C&D (overcame a wide draw) and at Chelmsford (5f), and subsequent defeats came over 6f then very slowly away here in April; form claims. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Conditions to suit and he ran well in defeat at Chelmsford (5f) in February/March; didn't run badly in a stronger C&D handicap last week and he can feature prominently back into 0-55 company. |

7th 10 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Finished a solid second at Chelmsford (5f Class 6) on his last two starts and his turn looks near; back up in grade but receives weight all round and remains favourably treated on plenty of form; not dismissed. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
9yo who has had 16 wins on AW, in January most recently; sole turf win (from 19 attempts) was at Yarmouth in 2022 but he came within a neck of another in a classified at same track (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago, which was the first time this year that he's worn his usual cheekpieces; has a shout if that form is repeated. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
9yo who has won 16 times on AW; his sole turf win came at Yarmouth but he failed to beat a rival over C&D (good) when last seen in April and needs to bounce back after that 16l defeat; cheekpieces reapplied. |
7/2 |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Chelmsford specialist who ran another sound race there on final start in March; only 1-17 on turf but has course form and this mark gives him a chance. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 54 starts came over this C&D in April 2023; wasn't helped by racing wide when fourth behind Let's Go Hugo at Wolverhampton eight days ago and makes some each-way appeal. |
11/1 |

4th 2 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has poor 1-52 strike-rate, the win gained on Polytrack (5f) in 2023; recent efforts have been underwhelming and he makes very limited appeal. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Very close third in a classified at Brighton (5.2f, good) in June but four lesser performances have followed; remains a maiden after 28 starts. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |

27-race maiden; close third here in June came in a 0-50 classified event; easy enough to swerve. |
50/1 |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Close third in classified race here (5.2f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in June but was just a respectable fourth at Wolverhampton (5f, AW; first-time blinkers) last month and is now 0-26; needs to find something extra on this first venture beyond 6f. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Landed a gamble over C&D 12 months ago (in this combination of accessories for the first time); ended 2025 quietly and he was well beaten on last month's return to action (no accessories); has plenty to prove but it wouldn't be a total bolt from the blue were he to revive. |

7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Sole victory came first time up last season, back from a similar break, so has that in his favour; lost his way in 2025, however, and the usual hood and tongue-tie are both missing. |

18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Remains winless and he comes here below par, just fifth of eight in 6f Yarmouth handicap a week ago; more is required in refitted cheekpieces. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Finished 8l behind Walking On Clouds at Lingfield (6f, AW) ten days ago, taking his record to 0-14; only 4lb better off and has finished out of the frame in all five starts on turf; tongue-tie needs to make a big difference. |
14/1 |

5th 8 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Longstanding maiden who missed a chunk of his career; tried in three forms of headgear this year, including when fourth behind two of these over C&D a month ago, and is given another try without today. |
