1st 2 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran with 14 wins on his CV; kept on for third when dropped back to 5f at Newcastle 12 days ago but is inconsistent nowadays and younger rivals appeal more. |

3rd 8 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Veteran who never featured in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton nine days ago; drops back to 5f with a point to prove. |

Slow-starting veteran who is having his 100th outing this evening; he has won 14 times already and his latest Newcastle fourth was a solid effort; should go well again. |

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. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his fifth success when seeing off ten rivals over C&D (good) in May; only narrowly denied another at Thirsk (5f, good) last month but below par when 3l third of five at Nottingham latest. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his fifth success when winning at Catterick (5f, good) last month off a 2lb lower mark than today's and he was narrowly denied at Thirsk (5f, good) nine days ago, bouncing back from a lesser effort; contender. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 10 (2) |
16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Resumed winning ways at Catterick (5f) in May but he was well below par when eighth of 12 over C&D 11 days ago; this C&D scorer is the sort to bounce back though; blinkers refitted. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Made it 14th-time lucky at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) last month and followed up under a positive ride at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday, taking his turf record to 33211; respected despite his 5lb penalty. |
5/2 |
|
1st 6 (6) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Regressive on the AW earlier in the year for this yard, having missed a year, but the return to turf and drop to 0-55 company did the trick under Rossa Ryan last time; going back up 7lb will test him but he's only had a handful of starts on grass and may well be up to it. |
7/4 |
|
1st 3 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13-race maiden but he's reached the frame in sprint handicaps on AW in his last four starts; remains unexposed on turf and he could go well again off a sliding mark back in this sphere. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
15-race maiden; neither of his 7f runs have been convincing in terms of stamina and there are more persuasive options today. |
10/1 |
|
8th 2 (5) |
8th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up in five consecutive 0-65 handicaps over 6f on the AW between September and January, but not fared in better since and now 0-14; didn't run very well in one previous go over this far. |
10/1 |
|
5th 1 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seemingly aided by cheekpieces when runner-up five consecutive times (once here) over 6f in September-January, and last month's 5f fourth at Chelmsford came in a slightly better race than this; worth persisting with over this trip. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; no win anywhere since October 2024 but he's been placed this year on both his visits to Windsor (5f, good to firm); drawn wider this time but he's considered each-way. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His losing run goes back to October 2024 and he was only fifth at Lingfield (5f, good) last month, but prior to that he was second over this C&D (good to firm) and the return to Windsor could be a plus for this two-time C&D winner; he's one to consider. |
7/1 |
|
5th 9 (9) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Has six wins to his name but the last one came in October 2024; second on his return to turf at Windsor (5f, good) and should run well. |

Multiple 6f winner, including on fast ground; losing run now at 31 (placed twice at Brighton this year); not written off but has yet to win over this shorter trip. |

|
3rd 5 (4) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |

5th 4 (12) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Winner of six races and ran well when third of nine in a 0-55 handicap here (5f, good to firm) last month, but current losing run now up to 29; drawn widest and others are more compelling. |
