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). |

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. |
9/4 |

2nd 1 (2) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Returned from seven months off to win from off the pace at Epsom (8.5f, good) last April; now bids to do much the same, after four lesser shows last season, and he's back to that last winning mark. |

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. |
7/2 |
|
6th 7 (1) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Most consistent since switched to the AW in October (1332321) and ran well back on turf when beaten a length into third of 11 at Bath (1m, good) last month; gets on well with Laura Coughlan; respected. |

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. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Hard to fancy on the evidence of the last 12 months but he was useful in his prime and he's one to watch in the betting off a reduced mark on his third start for this yard. |
33/1 |
|
9th 11 (12) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
A dual 1m2f scorer in 2024 for Simon and Ed Crisford; failed to fire for Susan Corbett last year, though, and he came in a below-par fifth for his new yard in 1m Bath handicap last month; not easy to make a case for. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
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. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Now only 1lb higher than for emphatic AW win in November but needs to up her game after three underwhelming turf runs this spring. |

8th 1 (13) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
AW winner for current stable but her form has dipped in two starts since returned to turf, despite being previously effective in this sphere; bit to prove at present. |
14/1 |
|
9th 8 (9) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Shot back up the weights after an easy win at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in November; latest Bath run was after a 12-week absence and she may fare better today with her rider's 7lb claim useful. |

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 |
9st 3lb |
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. |

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. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |

Three-time winner last year at a mile but slow starts have become a habit and was tailed off last time despite racing prominently. |

13th 2 (8) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Did well last year (three wins; one over C&D) but is yet to strike form after three starts this season and slow starts have become a serious issue; goes without usual blinkers today; comes with risk. |

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. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Lost his way last autumn and, after changing hands for 9,000gns, he was out the back on stable debut at Bath (1m, good; fine on soft); potentially well handicapped but has enough to prove. |
6/1 |
|
10th 6 (9) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Usually slowly away; lost his form last autumn but he's thrown in judged on plenty of earlier 2025 form, never mind peak efforts; first run since he left Gemma Tutty for 9,000gns in December and the market may guide. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |

A fair 1m2f winner at his best for Alice Haynes, but he's failed to beat a rival in handicaps at Lingfield (1m5f) and Bath (1m) in 2026; others appeal more. |
25/1 |
|
11th 8 (11) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win (21 races) was over 1m2f at Yarmouth last May but subsequent efforts include two seconds; left Alice Haynes for 17,000gns in October and came last of 12 (hood removed) when upped to 1m5f for new yard in February; now has a bit to prove over a trip this short. |
