8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a long losing run at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) in April and he's held his form back on turf since, including a close call at Salisbury (6f, soft) and a 2l sixth in a big field at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last month; still looks on a workable mark and he could be a big factor back on AW. |

Unraced on soft; 2-14 on the AW (wins over 7f) compared to 0-11 on turf but it was a good effort when second of ten at Newmarket (6f, good) 24 days ago; contender if handling conditions. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Perhaps ill at ease on the track when a disappointing favourite at Epsom in July; reliable in the main, winning twice last summer (7f, AW; 1m, good to firm) and runner-up on two occasions back in the spring (AW); considered. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Reliable sort (on turf and AW) who won twice last summer and was runner-up in March/April on his last two outings; stable has struck often enough this summer for him to be given a close look despite this new track. |

Won six 7f Tapeta handicaps in the opening months of last year, two over C&D, going two stone up the weights; didn't see out 1m when last seen and holds each-way claims back on his favoured surface. |

7th 5 (8) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has done most of his racing over 7f, winning six times (all on AW); back in form with placed efforts on last two starts, latest at Kempton; close third at this venue in sole 1m attempt; again has an each-way shout. |
7/1 |

3rd 6 (5) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Last 11 AW starts have been on Tapeta (231115111852), but he was beaten less than a length into third of 14 on his last visit here (1m); back up 1lb for his latest second of 12 at Southwell (7f)), but still 1lb below his last winning mark; respected. |

He's not running at all badly but has nothing in hand off his current mark and he's probably better at shorter trips. |

3rd 3 (3) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
C&D scorer in 2023 who also won at Epsom (made all; 3lb higher today) last August; 2026 performances don't look good enough, third of five on last two outings. |
14/1 |

3rd 1 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Small-field 6f affair not ideal last time and this is a bit easier back in the visor for the first time this season; last summer's easy Epsom win off 4lb lower (made all) showed he's at home round switchback tracks and he's one to consider. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Versatile tactically and his last win was here in June; 6lb higher now but was runner-up off this mark at Lingfield four days ago (7f AW) when in first-time cheekpieces; each-way claims. |
11/2 |

2nd 5 (1) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Won at Beverley (7.4f, good) in June and he ran another good race when a clear second there last time; this return to Polytrack is no problem and he should give it another good shot with cheekpieces added. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Fairly bolted up at Epsom (7f, good to firm) last July; that remains his only success but he's generally been running well this term and the handicapper is starting to give him a chance; respected. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 5 (6) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has modest 1-17 strike-rate but he's pretty consistent and his win was gained over C&D on good to firm ground (just under a year ago); finished well for second at Leicester (6f, good) last month and this step back up in trip is an obvious move; high on the list. |
5/2 |

2nd 3 (6) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Sole win from 16 starts came at Epsom (7f, good to firm) last July; went close at Southwell (7f, AW) in April and did best of those ridden prominently when eighth of 22 at York (7f, good) three weeks ago; this drop back in trip shouldn't inconvenience him and he's considered. |

6-31 on AW, four of those wins gained over C&D and the most recent a ready success from a 1lb lower mark last December; failed to settle on outer when only eighth of 12 (Jersey Maverick sixth, State of Madness ninth) at Kempton three weeks ago; others arrive in better form. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

Last four wins have been gained over C&D at Class 5 or lower, and tonight's would be the highest banded handicap he has taken in to date; drop back from 1m rates a plus, but clear career best likely required. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |

2nd 3 (3) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |

Not had a lot of luck with one thing and another lately and won't mind going back up to an easy 7f as he bids to take his course record to 3-3; higher in the weights than when twice winning easily here for Tom Clover last backend but he's respected. |

Five wins include two here over 6f; runner-up here over 7f in January but he hasn't matched that level in three starts since and failed to beat a rival home on his only previous try over 1m; returns from three months off. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Fine on Tapeta but all his wins have come on Polytrack, including twice last spring at Chelmsford; still dangerous when dipping into this company but he's unpredictable now and 7f round here is enough of a test. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

First and second in two 7f novices at Lingfield the winter before last, but having been off for a year, he's trailed home last in 1m/7f handicaps (tried a hood and blinkers last time); makes turf debut with lots to prove. |
