1st 5 (6) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
In-form 3yo who has reached the frame in AW handicaps (1m) in his last three runs, most recently when third at Kempton two weeks ago; record is now 1-10, but his dam won over 1m2f and he's respected at this new trip; cheekpieces worn in last two starts are removed. |
5/1 |

3rd 5 (7) |
12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
3yo who ended last season with a Newcastle win (1m, AW) and has run well in three of his four starts this season including when fourth of 14 at Newcastle (cheekpieces added) last month; still has low mileage and he should be in the mix again. |
7/1 |

4th 10 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Ended 2025 with C&D victory and he's advanced his form this season, posting good third of 14 in 1m Kempton handicap 26 days ago; cheekpieces added; merits consideration from an unchanged mark. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
In-form 3yo who is 2-6 since handicapping; fitted with cheekpieces in last two starts, winning at Hamilton then creditable fifth in notable event at Carlisle, both over 1m; likely player off bottom weight in the retained headgear. |
8/1 |
|
5th 16 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Won 1m handicaps at Southwell (AW) in April and Hamilton (good; 6lb higher today) 15 days ago; that's two wins from eight starts and he should be a lot more exposed than most of today's rivals, but he was firmly in charge in first-time cheekpieces on that latest outing. |
18/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Landed 1m Southwell handicap in April; only sixth under an aggressive ride at Haydock (1m) six days ago but no surprise to see him bounce back with cheekpieces added. |

9st 5lb |
Territories gelding; in the frame on all his four runs to date, returning with a good fourth on his handicap debut at Southwell (1m) last month; this keen-going sort holds solid claims back down to 7f. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
3yo who raised his game to win a steadily run, seven-runner race at Newbury (good to firm) three weeks ago when upped to 1m2f, always prominent; back up 3lb but may have more to offer at the trip. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won a Brighton novice (1m, good to firm) last October and has run with credit in handicaps over 1m/1m1f since returning in April, without looking ahead of his mark; this return to a longer trip may help, but others are still preferred. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
1m novice winner at two and then gelded; slow starts weren't helping matters this season but raced in touch last time at Lingfield (1m1f) and they all bumped into an improver; could go well. |

9st 6lb |
Won a novice at Lingfield (1m, AW) in February; consistent form since, without looking well handicapped (beaten about 3l over 1m4f/1m2f on last two outings) but he's now 11lb lower than on handicap debut. |
11/4 |
|
4th 8 (11) |
29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Opened his account at Lingfield (1m, AW) in February; got back on track with fifth of nine in 1m4f AW handicap at Lingfield 17 days ago; not out of things in first-time cheekpieces from a slipping mark. |
10/1 |
|

12th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 1m novice win here but he has failed to build on it sent handicapping and beat only two home at Kempton (1m) last month; takes a marked step up in trip. |

Nine-race maiden who is in form, having performed creditably the last twice, running-on fifth at Epsom (8.5f) latest occasion; has edged down the weights; first win is not out of the question. |
