7th 5 (2) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
8yo who went 21 months without a win but has now scored at Windsor, Lingfield, Chepstow and Ripon in his four races this turf season; his second in this race last year was a remote one and the 6lb rise since his latest start asks a question, but conditions fine and he's on a major roll, ridden by Sarah Bowen on last two starts (two in four days); major player. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Completed the hat-trick at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) on Monday; carries a 4lb penalty for that and stays 1m4f fine, so likely to have a major role to play again under Sarah Bowen, if electing to stand his ground. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (10) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Frequent slow starter who's enjoyed a revival since returned to turf, minus the tongue-tie and headgear; looked to have a bit more in hand than the final margin at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) off 3lb lower last time and holds obvious claims. |

18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-8 but produced her first worthwhile piece of form when runner-up in a handicap over C&D (good to firm) 19 days ago; holds place claims at least if she can reproduce that effort. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 7 (8) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Poor under both codes, again starting a big price back on the Flat five weeks ago; hard to make a case for her, even in such a weak handicap. |
33/1 |

8th 14 (12) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Struggled at big prices in her four Flat runs and same story in two maiden hurdles this year; this is only her second handicap but she needs major improvement back on the Flat. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-15 and placed just once (1m2f, good to firm); well beaten in a selling handicap (1m4f, AW) on first start for this yard and it's hard to make a strong case for him. |
33/1 |
|
8th 5 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ex-Irish maiden who was well backed on turf here last time, when coming away with two subsequent winners; a player on that, having since been picked up from Ross Burdon for 1,800gns, but he's never been quite this far and will need to settle better. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Regressive, ex-Irish maiden who's been expensive to follow on the AW this spring; below par back in headgear (left off tonight) on his return to turf ten days ago. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-14 and he didn't improve for the step up to 1m4f when fifth of eight at Leicester (good to firm) 20 days ago; drops back down into classified company but others appeal more. |
20/1 |
|
5th 8 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-13; kept on at Lingfield latest (good to firm) without improving for the step up to 1m2f, and he has further still to travel this time. |
40/1 |
|
4th 6 (4) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
One of his better efforts at Yarmouth one month ago, when going beyond 1m for the first time, but was probably flattered in a muddling, small-field affair; will want to settle better upped in distance again. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Lingfield AW classified winner in March but was safely held in two turf outings (also 1m2f) last month; others hold more pressing claims. |
25/1 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual Polytrack winner here this year, latterly in 0-50 company; didn't look to have any excuses back on turf (now 0-19) off this mark early in the month and needs more. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (7) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Took an age to get off the mark, finally opening his account at the 31st attempt in a 1m2f handicap at Lingfield (AW) in January; four runs since, twice finishing second before recording another Lingfield success six weeks ago; still unexposed at this trip and he is effective on turf. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless since 2024 and is having his first run on turf in three years; down to a career-low mark and has been in fair form in blinkers, but he's regressive and has returned three poor efforts in turf handicaps. |
4/1 |
|
5th 7 (1) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Dual C&D winner who's been brightened up by the blinkers of late without having the breaks; a slow start cost him here a month ago and he's one to consider. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Yet to fire this year and has a bit to find with Bohemian Breeze on their meeting here three weeks ago, but he is 12lb lower than when completing a hat-trick around this time last year (first two legs came over C&D); worth a second look. |
14/1 |
|
6th 10 (1) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Landed a hat-trick around this time last year, two of the wins coming over C&D including this race off 4lb higher; needs to improve plenty on recent efforts if he is to exploit this mark, though. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Poor maiden who's never gone close to finishing placed (7f-1m6f); the switch from cheekpieces to blinkers didn't make any difference back on turf one month ago. |
33/1 |
|
6th 9 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
13-race maiden and was tailed off over 1m6f at Wolverhampton 71 days ago; drops back markedly in trip with blinkers applied. |
50/1 |
|
9th 9 (9) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-race maiden who has finished ninth here in his two runs this winter and was behind several of today's rivals two weeks ago; passed over. |
