7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Consistent enough at a similarly low level all year, winning twice, and there are no concerns regarding track, trip or ground; that's enough to see him shortlisted in a weak affair. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 2 (6) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two 1m2f wins this year, the latest a fast-ground handicap at Leicester in May; respectable efforts since without hitting quite the same heights; should give a good account. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has won twice this year and did well after a slow start to claim fourth in a similar race at Lingfield (1m2f, good) last month; if he breaks on terms then he holds strong claims. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed on three of her five starts since returning from long layoff this year, including C&D (good) handicap third two starts ago; likely to pose a potent threat in this basement grade. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
4th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has done all her winning in the summer months and is currently 3-4 over this in-between trip; not as good since returning from a long absence but is still competitive at this level and holds claims on her latest Ffos Las third off the same mark. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
14th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
On a good mark and beaten a neck at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) two runs back, form that has worked out well; poor last time over an extended 1m3f but that trip seems too far. |

9st 12lb |
Three wins (1m-1m4f) in the first half of 2026; last month's Ascot third was up there with her best form but she wasn't quite at the same level back down in class at Chepstow three weeks ago; drops back in trip with each-way claims. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Turf wins this season at Bath (1m), over C&D and Leicester (1m2f); ran well from off the pace at Ascot 12 days ago (1m4f); her good campaign could continue. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 7 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Turf wins this term at Bath (1m), Chepstow (1m4f) and Leicester (1m2f), with one of those under Ashley Lewis; however, her form has dropped off somewhat in 1m4f races on last two outings and this race demands more. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won 1m4f/1m2f handicaps this year and latest fourth at Leicester wasn't too bad a run; no reason why he shouldn't be on the scene. |
3/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won here (1m4f, good to firm) in May and he returned to form with a win over this C&D (good to firm) last month, with three of these behind; he's just 2lb higher today and could play another leading role. |
11/4 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Doubled his tally when winning here over 1m4f in May, coming from last to first, and he left the impression he's still in form when sixth of 11 at Pontefract two weeks ago; will need a good gallop now dropped back in trip, which he isn't sure to get. |

Lightly-raced ex-Irish maiden; off eight months and not disgraced on his handicap debut with fifth of 11 at Leicester (1m2f) in May; needs to build on it here. |
9/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Son of Teofilo who cut little ice in a trio of runs in 2025, seventh in 1m Lingfield maiden in September; lots more is needed on his return/handicap debut. |
33/1 |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Acts on any ground and has won on soft and heavy; has been a bit up and down this season, but she got back on the scoresheet with cosy win in classified at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) last week; still looks feasibly treated back in a handicap and she's a big player if this sets up for her closing style. |
9/2 |

1st 3 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-5 for new stable this year; ran quite well when fifth of ten in Leicester handicap (1m2f, good to firm) last month but was soundly beaten at Chepstow three weeks later; others have more pressing claims. |
20/1 |

6th 6 (7) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Knows more about this game than most with this being her 80th start, but she hasn't been running like a winner waiting to happen and hasn't scored on turf since September 2023. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-Irish (1m1f winner in 2024); running for this yard since December and the odd piece of that form gives him a shout, including penultimate start but that was on soft ground; below form sole start on firmer than good. |
6/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ex-Irish winner; hold-up performer who finished well for second behind Scarfo off his much-reduced mark at Chepstow (1m, soft); needs a strong pace and he has major claims if he gets one. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 7 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Sole success came in August 2024 when trained in Ireland; has tumbled down the weights since his British debut in December; is a hostage to fortune as he tends to be held up and requires a fast pace to be seen to best effect. |

Yet to offer much in his eight runs to date; beaten 13l at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) last month; wears first-time blinkers but not easy to warm to. |

8th 10 (10) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Scored over hurdles at Stratford last May but below par on the AW over the winter, beating just one home in 1m2f handicap at Chelmsford in February; more is required after a break in a change of headgear. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D scorer but she's not proving the easiest to predict of late, tried in a change of headgear when only sixth of eight in 1m handicap here last month; others are preferred. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (6) |
15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
All three of her wins on the Flat have been over 1m2f; failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in November but she ran a better race when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 26 days ago; cheekpieces replace the visor but this is the shortest trip she has encountered since July 2023. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |

5th Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Regressive Flat maiden who, for the second time this year, refused to race on the AW nine days ago; has the ability to feature off this mark over hurdles (0-6) but far too risky. |
8/1 |

12 (3) |
27th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
He has the ability to make a nonsense of his lowly rating but slow starts have been a recurring theme and he completely disgraced himself at Leicester in May; running okay over hurdles this summer but can't be backed with any confidence. |
7/1 |
|
4th 3 |
20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
1-25 on the Flat; kept on for third on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell (2m, good) in June but two lesser efforts have followed and it's questionable whether the refitted cheekpieces will make the necessary difference. |
