19th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three 6f wins this season but ought to have coped better with the soft ground when midfield on last two outings and this drop back to 5f is probably not ideal; others preferred. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Seems to handle most surfaces; multiple wins include a strike-rate of 3-5 over this C&D; he was on a hat-trick when returning here last month but below best and it's a while since he ran well off this high a mark. |
16/1 |

5th 9 (9) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Seems to act on most ground; nine-time winner who is on a hat-trick after a brace of wins at Ffos Las (6f, good) last month; it was in his nursery days that he last scored off a mark this high, but he can't be ignored in current mood. |

29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Went up 7lb for winning comfortably at Windsor (6f, good to soft), the scene for all his three turf wins; off his new mark he might be vulnerable away from that venue. |
100/30 |
|
1st 6 (11) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Both turf wins have come over C&D; feasibly treated and lost his race at the start (slowly away; as three runs back as well) when sent off favourite here last week; possibilities if giving himself a chance. |
14/1 |

9th 1 (7) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Both turf wins have come over C&D, the latest in May off a 1lb lower mark; disappointed at Newbury when last seen 46 days ago but he should be more potent back at this venue. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
A regular in the Grey Horse Handicap (6f) at Newmarket in which he didn't get much luck a month ago; had been running creditably prior to that, so one for the shortlist. |
7/1 |
|
6th 7 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
He has contested this race for the last four years, with form figures reading 1626; mostly running with credit this term and he narrowly prevailed at Newbury (6f, good to firm) five weeks ago; 3lb nudge shouldn't stop him being competitive under Billy Loughnane; player. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time winner whose last success was over C&D in May; hasn't made a serious impact since then but he did best of the hold-up performers here (fifth of 11) here last time and is now back on his last winning mark; dangerous. |
11/2 |
|
5th 2 (9) |
8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Resumed winning ways over C&D in May and in good form until just seventh of 12 in 6f Newmarket handicap 25 days ago; the sort to bounce back. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (11) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Versatile 7yo who has won ten times at up to 1m; hasn't made an impact since his Leicester win (6f, good to firm) in May but he had lots of traffic issues at Newbury three weeks ago; can put a line through that and he's a player if he gets some luck this time. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Gradually back to form this term, most recently prevailing at Goodwood (6f, good to soft); has never won above Class 5 but she remains favourably treated, having defied current mark last term (over 7f). |
4/1 |
|
1st 8 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Strike-rate of 4-35; best run for a while when a front-running second at Lingfield (7f, good) and dropping back to 6f won't hinder, nor the slower ground; could have done with a higher draw ideally but should run well. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 8 (5) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Out of the frame in her last ten starts, but is 4lb lower than when making all over C&D this time last year; by no means written off. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Win twice on soft turf for his previous stable but he's 0-6 since joining this yard, and was well beaten returned to the AW at Wolverhampton (6f) three weeks ago; first-time visor needs to make a difference. |
25/1 |
|
9th 2 (4) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Unplaced all five turf starts new stable this season (6f-7f) but hasn't been running that badly and continues to slip down the weights; Billy Loughnane is booked for this rare AW appearance; not ruled out. |
9/2 |
|
6th 9 (6) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Two turf wins, the latest a claimer at Leicester last October on final run for Eve Johnson Houghton; dropping down the weights but hasn't been shaping of late as though he's about to take advantage. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice on AW (6f) for Robert Cowell last autumn but he's finished down the field in most of his runs for new yard this season; has dropped a long way in the weights but losing run is up to 15 and others are preferred. |
10/1 |

6th 7 (14) |
23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Won twice on AW (6f) for Robert Cowell last autumn and he is thrown in on that form; mostly not at his best since joining this stable but now drops into class 6 company for just the second time. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Very well handicapped on last summer's exploits but he's been a long way below that level this year and a major turnaround is needed. |

5th 1 (3) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won two 6f handicaps on good ground last summer when with Hugo Palmer; quiet in two runs for current yard (cheekpieces then a visor) and soft ground might not be what he wants. |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 (9) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Thirsk (6f, good) last June before following up at Chester (6f, good) a week later; well beaten in the Ayr Bronze Cup on his final start for Hugo Palmer and he beat only one rival home at Bath on his stable debut 27 days ago; visor back on (replacing cheekpieces worn last time). |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
1-11 for Charlie Johnston, for whom he was also beaten a neck over C&D last October; hasn't found his form in four runs for new yard, tailed off on turf latest, which puts him down the list. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
He hasn't found his best form in three runs for Rod Millman but he is dropping down the weights and he has one of the more experienced riders on board; could revive. |
12/1 |
|
6th 5 (4) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Yard in flying form but this gelding has it to prove, having been off since a poor turf comeback in May; two previous runs on Polytrack weren't great either, while an easy 7f looks a bare minimum. |
