Gained a second win of 2026 at Nottingham (1m1f) in July; runner-up three times since, beaten a nose in handicap at Southwell (1m3f) last time; a likely player off an unchanged mark.

Triple turf winner who bounced back with a creditable second behind an unexposed improver at Salisbury (1m2f, soft) two weeks ago; now returns to AW but he's unexposed in this sphere and has claims if he can repeat that latest form.

T: Jonathan Portman

Generally progressive 3yo who held on narrowly at Nottingham (1m1f, good to firm) in July, his third win, and was second off today's mark at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) soon afterwards; big player if able to bounce back quickly from below-par run a fortnight ago.

A maiden after seven starts but encountered some traffic before running on well to snatch second (no threat to winner) at Lingfield (1m, AW) a fortnight ago and remains unexposed over this trip; one to consider.

Seven races, best when beaten under a length in 1m handicaps here (firm/good) on last two occasions; not bred for 1m2f but has now been shaping as if worth a crack at it; also now tries headgear but he's one to consider.

Improved on her 2yo form when finishing third over C&D (firm) on last week's seasonal return; had to wait for a run on that occasion before finishing with a flourish; open to further progress.

Ended three-race 2yo campaign with quite promising third in C&D (good to soft) maiden in September, albeit in a slowly run race; makes handicap debut after 226-day absence but has potential.

Made all with cheekpieces added in a Brighton handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in June, but she's not matched that form in three subsequent runs; record is now 1-10 and needs to raise her game in first-time blinkers.

Just the one win from 15 starts, gained over 6f on good ground; however, last week's C&D run was the second time she's finished runner-up on soft and a repeat won't see her far away.

Yet to win this season but went close here (7.3f, good) last month and was denied a clear run when fifth of 11 at Bath (1m, good) nine days ago; also ran well the only time she encountered soft ground (unraced on heavy); can make her presence felt.

Generally disappointing this season but lost out by only a head off her basement mark at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) three weeks ago and is probably worth another crack at 1m; contender if in the right mood again.
