18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Doubled his winning tally when successful over C&D in April; twice unplaced on turf since and still 5lb higher than for that latest win, but still one for the shortlist returned here. |
6/1 |
|
7th 3 (9) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Sole turf win came in a Lingfield maiden but he won his first AW race in April (6f) and has since run well in a slightly stronger race than this over C&D (good to firm); has other quite solid handicap form at this trip on grass and he should go well under up-and-coming Harry Vigors. |
5/1 |
|
4th 10 (14) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run when winning a 0-55 AW handicap run to suit round Lingfield last time; upped 6lb but was competitive off higher marks on turf last summer and that win may have boosted confidence. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D wins in two of his last three starts, the latest his stable debut 16 days ago when he wore a tongue-tie for the first time; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. |
12/1 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Landed a second C&D win for Michael Attwater when taking a 0-50 classified event in June; below that level at a short price here a week later and is tried in a first-time tongue-tie for his new yard back into handicap company. |
6/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Finds winning races difficult (2-25) but both wins have been over C&D, the latest in a similar contest (good to firm) last Tuesday; carries a 5lb penalty but looks sure to run his race. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Led close home for narrow AW win here in January but that's his only success from 21 starts and he posed no threat on turf at Brighton last month; others have more pressing claims. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (7) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Sole win from 20 starts came off this mark at Lingfield (7f, AW) in January; turf form not so hot; fell at Lingfield last time; others more persuasive. |

18th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-time AW winner who was a creditable third in classified event at Wolverhampton (5f) two weeks ago; this step back up in trip is no problem but he's 0-17 on turf and was tailed off at Doncaster on his penultimate run. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual course winner early in the year for 5lb claimer Ryan Kavanagh, and will be happier back on the AW and down from 7f; would have been better off with all bar one were this a handicap, however. |
16/1 |
|
16th 14 (16) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won two classified events at Wolverhampton (5f/6f) this year but he's not made an impact in last three runs; this step back up to 7f is no problem but he needs to find more to get back on the scoresheet. |

C&D win in January; not in the same form in three runs since April and minor money perhaps his best hope. |

5th 13 (4) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Multiple winner down the years; solid effort on turf three weeks ago and won't mind getting back on AW; looks the likeliest of Phil Mcentee's three runners. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Won 7f Lingfield classified in February and was placed in that grade two starts ago but she's fully exposed and, on balance, others in this line-up look stronger. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 (11) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
C&D winner; landed a 0-50 classified event at Lingfield in February and she ran her best race since when third over 7f here five weeks ago; more appealing than many in a weak race. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed 7f classified event at Lingfield in February and not disgraced in handicaps since, sixth of ten there (6f) last time; merits serious consideration back in classified company here. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Close third in a C&D classified race here in June on final start; even if in the same form after three months off, he has more on his plate back in a handicap from 8lb out of the weights. |
25/1 |
|
3rd 5 (9) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not shown much in two starts on the AW since returning in March and just 3-50, but he was placed in all four starts in handicap company here (6f) last year; just about stays this far; shortlisted. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Very close third in a classified at Brighton (5.2f, good) in June but four lesser performances have followed; remains a maiden after 28 starts. |
20/1 |
|
15th 15 (13) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |

27-race maiden; close third here in June came in a 0-50 classified event; easy enough to swerve. |
50/1 |

8th 8 (2) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Close third in classified race here (5.2f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in June but was just a respectable fourth at Wolverhampton (5f, AW; first-time blinkers) last month and is now 0-26; needs to find something extra on this first venture beyond 6f. |

22nd Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed his fifth win at this venue when scoring on the turf track (5f, good to firm) in May; has held his form since, apart from when his saddle slipped at Windsor, and holds place prospects at least. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 7 (7) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Better known for his AW exploits but he has been in good order on turf this summer; closely matched with Twirler on latest C&D run. |
10/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Scored at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in May and probably bettered that performance when very close second at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month; recent Windsor run is best overlooked (saddle slipped); slightly out of the weights but the return to 6f won't be a problem; probably won't be far away. |

9st 9lb |
Sole win from 54 starts came over this C&D in April 2023; wasn't helped by racing wide when fourth behind Let's Go Hugo at Wolverhampton eight days ago and makes some each-way appeal. |
11/1 |

4th 2 (8) |
17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

|
5th 1 (1) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has poor 1-52 strike-rate, the win gained on Polytrack (5f) in 2023; recent efforts have been underwhelming and he makes very limited appeal. |
66/1 |
