3rd 3 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
He's had a long career but never been better than this season, winning at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m4f) with a close third in between; they were all on AW in March/April under Olivia Tubb and he's not raced since, with turf runs in the last two years hinting that he's not quite so good in this sphere; also, the last time he raced on firmer than good was 2022. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with success at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March and backed it up with a good third of 12 in another 9.5f handicap there since; this C&D scorer can go well again off the same mark. |
5/1 |

3rd 4 (12) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His first seven wins were all gained over 1m4f/1m3f, with the latest of those last October, but he then made all under Olivia Tubb in a six-runner race over C&D 13 days ago; that win was by a neck and he's been raised 2lb since, but a wide draw complicates today's task. |

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. |
3/1 |

2nd 6 (2) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Justified favouritism at Southwell most recently, making it three wins from his last four starts and taking strike-rate since November to 5-11; has a particularly good record at Wolverhampton in that period; progressing well with age and warrants respect off bottom weight upped further in class. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
3-40 overall; usually thereabouts on turf/AW, including this year, but latest start was an exception and he needs to bounce back from that Ripon run. |
20/1 |

9th 3 (5) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Usually thereabouts, including in AW campaign this year which culminated in a Lingfield 1m2f win in April; respectable fifth of nine off this mark at Chester (extended 1m2f, good) three weeks ago. |
10/1 |

5th 3 (1) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Usually thereabouts, including in AW campaign this year which culminated in a Lingfield 1m2f win five weeks ago; one concern is that he was below form last September on his only run at this track. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Prevailed by a neck at Sandown (1m, good) last time, registering a first success on turf; back up 3lb but remains well treated on the pick of his AW form; gained his other wins back-to-back. |
9/2 |

1st 5 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has broadly respectable form since returned to turf, notably a good effort behind Dovey Moon; however, still may be more interesting when back on Chelmsford AW; 2-2 there compared to 0-18 elsewhere. |
8/1 |

7th 11 (11) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins on Chelmsford's polytrack but placed efforts at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) and Salisbury (1m, good) show he's well capable on turf; making headway when clipping heels and unseating his rider approaching the final furlong at Goodwood last week. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Improved once returned to AW and bagged a hat-trick across October and December (1m); on the scoresheet again upped to 9.5f at Wolverhampton (career-best form) in February; form took a slight dip on last two starts, while his earlier turf form isn't comparable so interesting to see how he fares back on grass. |
16/1 |

10th 9 (6) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Record in AW handicaps reads 11124135; pulled his chance away at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) last month, but may settle better in this bigger field; one for the shortlist. |

7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 10-33 on AW features six wins at Wolverhampton, including in this race (off just 1lb lower) last year; close fourth at Lingfield for an encouraging start to his 2026 campaign; fighting chance. |
7/2 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Best known as a Wolverhampton specialist (six wins), but is 2-5 over C&D and the middle leg of his hat-trick early last year included this race off 3lb lower; interesting. |
7/1 |
|
10th 4 (7) |
28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Has a much better stirke-rate on AW than on turf; form dipped back in this sphere when last seen; on a difficult mark and isn't the percentage call. |
