2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A maiden after 28 starts, with tendencies to start slowly and race too freely, but has made the frame on his last five appearances, including two seconds in this grade at Brighton (6f, good to firm) this summer; fine over 7f and a likely contender once again; has tried various headgear combinations this year; goes in just the refitted cheekpieces today. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Exposed 27-race maiden; runner-up in 6f classified events at Brighton on his last two starts (beaten favourite on each occasion); should run his race but others appeal more for win purposes. |

2nd 13 (8) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Three-time AW winner over 6f; yet to offer much over this far (0-5) and hasn't beaten a rival in his last two races. |
11/1 |

9th 5 (4) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Three-time AW winner over 6f, most recently at Kempton in May off a 1lb lower mark than today's; third on turf at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) after that success but he's been below that level over this trip in two starts since. |

25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Triple 6f scorer on Tapeta or Polytrack, and ought to have races in him on turf also judged on last month's Chepstow third (good to soft); this trip still seemed too far for now at Redcar latest, however. |

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 |

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. |

8th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Races mainly on the AW; not that easy to win with (record of 1-21); in fair form when last out, finishing runner-up in three of his last four races (all at 6f) having won over 6f at Chelmsford in February; first turf run since May last year when fifth of six at Brighton (6f, good to firm). |

2nd 10 (5) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Can make the running; twice runner-up at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) this spring and had excuses for a lesser effort over 5f there last time; each-way possibilities. |

Successful in a 6f handicap at Chelmsford in February off a 4lb lower mark; runner-up here (6f) on his last two starts and he has run well over 5f in the past; should give his running. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Drawn wide back up to 6f last time and that run is best overlooked; previously in good form over C&D, winning at a short price late last month in 0-55 company, but this race is stronger and he's 6lb higher. |
12/1 |

9th 9 (10) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual C&D winner who recorded his eighth AW win when coming from last to first at Southwell (5f) last week; 5lb higher under a penalty but he remains feasibly treated and is a big player again back up in trip. |
7/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven AW wins have come elsewhere but he has often run well over C&D and did so again when only narrowly failing to end a losing run here on Saturday; had no problem with returning to 5f for the first time in over a year and a likely candidate. |

Placed over both 6f and 7f, the most recent of those coming at Chelmsford (Polytrack) last November; has taken a couple of backward steps since; drops slightly in grade and is not written off. |

Nine-race maiden; went close over C&D in November but failed to build on it at Lingfield one month later (cheekpieces first time); could still have a bigger effort in him. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Off the mark in a 6f classified on Chelmsford AW in February; his handicap form since hasn't come up to scratch and although he wasn't beaten far in a C&D classified last time he has more to prove back at this level. |
12/1 |

3rd 4 (1) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

Improved form when landing a classified event at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in February but he's not finished closer than seventh in four subsequent runs; overall record is now 1-13 and others are more convincing. |

Sole win (12 races) was in a 6f AW classified in February; switched to turf (good to firm) for his last two outings and needs to produce much better than those efforts. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Regressive maiden who's finished well held in two runs back in 0-50 classified company; would be a surprise winner switching from cheekpieces to a first-time visor. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

18-race maiden; fair fifth after a break over this trip at Chelmsford last time on return to AW; more needed, but could get a place. |
13/2 |
Verdict
Nine-time course winner Sir Rodneyredblood holds solid claims and Valsharah (second choice) is respected following a good run at Kempton. However, DANCING WITH DRUMS was 2-2 in handicaps for Martin Dunne and is selected to make a winning yard debut on his first start since September, with Forever Noah also considered. [Harry March]
