7th 1 (7) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-time winner, the latest coming at Bath (1m, good) in April off a 2lb lower mark; had an excuse when below his best at Thirsk and bounced back to form when third of seven behind Jack Sparowe at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) 24 days ago; could go well. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk last time but he can be given a pass as he was tight for room at a crucial stage; Billy Loughnane back on board today and his record for him reads 4111; one to take seriously. |
4/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his Wolverhampton win on Boxing Day; added further wins at Wolverhampton (twice) and Bath (1m, good) since; similar form when fourth at Nottingham two weeks ago (1m2f, good); shouldn't be far away if the ground is deemed suitable (untried on faster than good). |

26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Seems to run best when fresh and hasn't built on his second at Bath in April (1m, good); reservations in the new headgear. |
25/1 |
|
8th 5 (4) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Seems best when fresh and duly ran well (close second) at Bath on seasonal debut; appeared to be a disappointing favourite at Epsom later in April but that effort is excusable with the race likely coming sooner than ideal; only attempt under Tom Marquand resulted in sole win (off current mark to boot); respected on return from 11-week break. |
13/2 |
|
7th 8 (6) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Returned from seven months off to win this race from off the pace last year; couldn't build on that in four subsequent starts last season but was back down to that winning mark when slightly unlucky second at Bath (1m, also good) on his resumption three weeks ago; of firm interest. |

30th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two of his three wins have come here (9.5f/7f), the latest in March; ran with credit when fourth of ten at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) last time and he makes the shortlist. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (8) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Turf and dual Tapeta winner who justified favouritism with a narrow success at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form but he flopped at Bath (1m, firm) last time and needs to bounce back after that heavy defeat. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Course winner (1m2f, good to soft) last September and he has made good progress since, adding two AW successes (9.4f/7f) to his tally; close third over C&D last month (good ground) but not in the same form at Kempton three weeks ago; can't ignore if as effective on today's faster ground. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

0-18 and his record is a patchy one; below par at Salisbury last month and the change of headgear isn't enough to tempt. |
14/1 |
|
9th 3 (9) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Still a maiden after 17 starts but scores good marks for consistency; runner-up in first-time visor (retained) at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last month and ought to be on the premises again here. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 8 (1) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Yet to register a victory but he arrives in decent nick, fading late when seventh in 1m2f Lingfield handicap 17 days ago; not out of things back in trip in a change of headgear. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Decent 3yo who's enjoyed a revival round Chepstow of late, beating a subsequent winner off 7lb lower last month before following up a fortnight ago; every chance of completing the hat-trick. |
3/1 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Prevailed by 1l in C&D contest (good to firm) last month on only his fourth start for current yard; back up only 3lb he remains attractively handicapped on 3yo form; respected. |
5/4 |
|
1st 1 (1) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Losing run up to 14, but now 22lb below his last winning mark and showed a bit more when fourth of nine at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) last time; that form is working out quite well and one to be interested in. |

Low-mileage 4yo who arrives in good form, third of seven in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster 15 days ago; not out of things in his bid for a maiden victory. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Form figures of 323 in maiden/novice events but he's been well held in four handicaps; may have had stamina issues over 2m at Lingfield (AW) last month but he needs to raise his game on this big drop back in trip. |
7/2 |

4th 2 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Low-mileage 4yo; safely held in first three handicaps (1m-1m2f) but this big hike up in trip is an interesting move; cheekpieces removed after one use; well worth a glance in the bettting. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; yet to win this season but she was a good third at Salisbury (1m, good) in June and filled the same position behind a big improver at Lingfield (1m, AW) last time; continues to edge down the weights and she's in the mix back on turf. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Yet to win this season but kept on for third at Salisbury (1m, good) in June and only faded out of contention in closing stages at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month, having raced wide throughout; on a tempting mark now; might be the answer. |

9st 13lb |
Often slowly away but it hasn't prevented her from winning three times on the AW since October (9.4f-1m4f); this trip more suitable than the 1m she tackled at Bath 19 days ago; untried on faster than good. |
8/1 |

8th 4 (8) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-9 since a hood went on, including wins under Ashley Lewis at Wolverhampton (1m4f and 9.4f) on two of her last three starts; unraced over a trip this short since her pre-handicap days and the hood is removed; also unraced on turf since last July and none of her turf form matches this mark. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (1) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Recorded her second win when scoring over 1m4f here last month but she was a well-held fourth in follow-up bid at Southwell on Saturday; has a bit to prove after that and this is a quick turnaround. |

5/1 |

4th 2 (4) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
3lb higher than when winning this race last year, but is off the same mark as when following up at Salisbury (1m, good to soft) next time; looked unlucky not to go even closer when third of eight at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm) 15 days ago and is respected. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Returned to form with second in amateur riders' race at Brighton (1m, good to firm) last month and is still on a good mark but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his habit of starting slowly is another worry. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has done his winning at trips between 6f and 1m; losing run goes back to March 2024 but, following a spell in the doldrums for previous yard and this one, he's been back in better form of late, doing some good late work on the AW at Kempton (1m) and Wolverhampton (about 1m1f); can be involved with Tom Marquand up for the first time |
11/4 |
|
7th 10 (9) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Better with each of his three runs for this yard and wasn't beaten far at Kempton a fortnight ago, despite hanging right; stays this far and is quite happy on Tapeta, so he's one to consider. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not the most reliable and winless since March 2024 for Gemma Tutty; hinted at a revival though on just second run for his new yard with fourth of eight in 1m1f handicap at Goodwood last month; not without interest off a tumbling mark with Oisin Murphy up for the first time. |

9st 4lb |
Broke duck at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in May 2025 and some good efforts in defeat followed later in the year; however, it's been a slow process recapturing form for new yard and was well held when second of five back at Yarmouth recently; no good thing to take advantage of a tempting mark. |
4/1 |

2nd 3 (5) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Well handicapped on some of last year's form for Alice Haynes that includes a fast-ground C&D win but has not been competitive on any of four starts for new stable this season (cheekpieces refitted last time); considered only if lively in the betting. |
20/1 |

6th 5 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |
