30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Below par at Sandown this month but a return to his May form, namely an AW success flanked by second-place finishes on turf, would put him in the picture. |
15/2 |
|
9th 5 (3) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Back in good form off his reduced mark, winning easily at Southwell (5f) before nearly defying a penalty at Chepstow (good to firm; effective on softer); 3lb higher for this but well drawn and must have a shout for all that he's back up in grade; Seamus Cronin aboard for last three races. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has dropped a fair way down the weights over the last year or so, but looked back in prime form when scooting clear to win readily by 4l at Southwell (5f, AW) last week; also suited by good to firm turf and is 4lb ahead of the handicapper under his 5lb penalty. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won a novice this time last year over (an easy) 7f round Chelmsford but has done most racing since in sprints, latterly when second in a small field here (6f) 12 days ago; will need to settle better than has often been the case. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (2) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Both wins (6f/7f) have been on AW but she was disappointing when favourite at Southwell (5f, Tapeta) last week; still unexposed on turf but she has form figures of 600 in this sphere and all of those runs were in handicaps; others preferred. |
5/1 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Course winner who has bounced back to form since the cheekpieces went on, runner-up over C&D four weeks ago; she must enter calculations again off the same mark. |

1st 1 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Took advantage of a declining mark to register her first AW/handicap win, at Southwell (5f) last month; hung right throughout when fourth of five at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) since; should not be far away if on her best behaviour. |
4/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Close fifth at Thirsk (5f, good) this month before winning at Southwell (5f, AW) last Thursday; strong claims under a 5lb penalty. |
2/1 |
|
1st 3 (6) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Ended her time with Ivan Furtado with a very good 5f Wolverhampton second in October; yet to hit that form for her current yard but not disgraced with fifth of 11 in 5f Thirsk handicap 13 days ago; possibilities off an easing mark. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Right back to his best of late, landing back-to-back C&D handicaps; this is tougher under a 5lb penalty but he can't be dismissed in his hat-trick attempt. |
6/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Made the most of dropping 2lb below his previous winning mark when beating the dead-heaters Betweenthesticks and Dream Deal by a length over C&D (good) eight days ago; 5lb penalty shouldn't preclude another big effort given he has twice won from 1lb higher. |
7/2 |
|
1st 2 (7) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Attractively treated, having gained all wins off current mark or higher; has rather lacked consistency this year but holds a good chance provided he turns up in top form. |

4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Maiden after 14 runs, five under Billy Loughnane, but has been involved in tight finishes over 5f on Tapeta on three occasions so ought to find a race at some stage and perhaps this first go on Polytrack will suit. |
3/1 |
|
5th 7 (9) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Had 13 cracks at it now and enjoyed the run of the race in a small-field maiden when last seen three months ago; that's been boosted since but, while she's consistent, she's fully exposed. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Four 5f wins since December, including C&D, with the latest coming at Lingfield 24 days ago; only 2lb higher and looks set for another prominent showing. |
13/8 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Busy since the autumn; some narrow defeats to go with three 5f wins, on Polytrack elsewhere and Tapeta; ran flat at Southwell recently but he's realistically weighted if that wasn't a sign that he's going off the boil. |
9/2 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Three wins in the winter, including over C&D, and he has continued to run well off his revised mark; drawn wide on turf last time and usually gives his running round here, so holds each-way claims. |

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. |

16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
A fair 5f scorer in 2025; back to form with runner-up at Nottingham (5f) in May but he hung left when beating just two at Southwell (5f) last time; needs to get back on track. |
7/1 |
|
8th 8 (10) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Confirmed his liking for Nottingham, where he won last autumn, when back-to-form second 12 days ago, again from the front; went close on Tapeta too around the turn of the year and enters calculations. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 6 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Just one win from ten starts but that was a dominant display in a 14-runner handicap over C&D (good) in October; mixed results in three subsequent runs but he went close at Wolverhampton in December and may have needed his reappearance run at Southwell in March; still looks on a workable mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid back at this track. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Yard quiet so far this year and this C&D regular has been given a break since below par here in March; on a career-low mark now, 4lb below his last winning figure, but needs a revival. |
14/1 |
|
8th 5 (9) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Four-time C&D winner, the latest in January off a 2lb higher mark; however, he seems to be going through the motions at present, never dangerous when sixth last time; others preferred. |

Wildly inconsistent filly who's finished well held a few times since springing a 33-1 shock over C&D in March; it seems the positive early impact of the visor may have worn off. |
25/1 |

8th 6 (1) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Sprung a 33-1 surprise at Southwell last month (5f) but that has been followed by two disappointing runs; best turf form on good ground; others appeal more for win purposes. |
20/1 |
|
7th 9 (5) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |

Opened her account for her current yard over C&D in March but bumped start when last of eight in 5f Wolverhampton handicap three days ago; it would come as no surprise to see her bounce back. |
