1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 44y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Two 1m6f wins this summer; not so hot on good to soft ground for last two outings, albeit not disgraced on latest, and others seem to have more pressing claims despite his return to what should be a good mark. |
14/1 |

6th 2 (12) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins (one over C&D) for new stable this season; struggled on good to soft ground at Epsom recently but conditions ought to be more suitable for him here; no surprise if he features. |

14th 11 (5) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Two wins since joining Rod Millman, the latest a wide-margin success in a small field at Salisbury (1m6f, good to firm) last month; second at Chepstow 25 days ago; handles good to soft but more to prove if it is slower. |

27th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Won two in a row in June (1m4f, good) and, bar one blip, he's continued in good form, finishing fourth of 12 at Bath (1m6f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; each-way shout under regular rider Taylor Fisher. |

|
4th 1 (4) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Dual hurdle and dual Flat winner this year; probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark but his recent defeat on soft ground is excusable; enters each-way calculations. |
16/1 |
|
6th 10 (11) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
More wins this year, two over hurdles and two on the Flat (about 1m4f, good), but perhaps found out by a career-high mark at Ascot and Lingfield (back at 1m6f, good to firm) since; probably has work to do again. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Largely consistent 7yo who has gained all four wins at this track (1m4f-2m); placed twice off this mark at Bath last month (1m6f/1m5f) and commands respect on return to this happy hunting ground. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (10) |
29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 11y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
On a losing run but he arrives in good form, in the frame for the fourth start running when third of 12 in in 1m6f handicap here 16 days ago; ought to be in the shake-up. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
In the frame all four starts since returned to turf in April, most recently when second of seven at Ffos Las (2m, good) last month; holds no secrets from the handicapper but is suited by this track and ought to go well again. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
27th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Exposed six-time winner who can front run; 2lb beneath the mark he defied at Newbury last summer (1m5f, good to firm; effective on good to soft) and he hasn't been running badly of late. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Latest of his six wins was in clearcut style in this race last year (good to firm) off 1lb higher, making all; running creditably back on turf this season and looks set for a bold show, but all of today's rivals are either in good form too and/or far less exposed. |

25th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Thrown in on his old Flat form and he was beaten less than 2l at Bath (1m6f, good) in June; no impact when returned to hurdling last month but he's hard to rule out back in this sphere; wore visor on penultimate run but all three wins have been without headgear. |
16/1 |
|
4th 1 |
28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Regressive on the Flat and has 0-8 strike-rate over hurdles; not beaten far when fifth in first-time visor (now removed) on latest Flat start in June and returns to this code on a workable mark but others have more appealing profiles. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
In good form under both codes since April, winning once on the Flat and three times over hurdles, latest when scoring comfortably on his first attempt at 2m6f at Stratford eight days ago; escapes a penalty for that success and could have more to offer over this even longer trip; key player. |
10/11 |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
In good form on the Flat (one win) and over hurdles (two wins) since returning from a break in the spring; not yet proven over this far but recent 2m1f Flat third offers hope he could have untapped potential as a staying hurdler. |
11/8 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
17th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Has got himself high in the weights over hurdles but has continued to run well in recent weeks; assured stayer who is only 3lb higher than for his 2m1f win at Bath back in the spring. |

13th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
1m6f AW winner just over a year ago; uncompetitive in three runs as a hurdler but could have a future off this sort of mark now into handicaps; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
8/1 |
|
5th 3 |
20th Sep 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Flat winner (1m6f, AW) who ran fairly well in that code when fourth at Kempton (2m, AW) last month; however, AW seems his preferred surface and he was soundly beaten on his two hurdle starts last season. |
10/1 |
|
4th 5 (3) |
5th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Back off the same mark as when making all at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) last September when in the care of Jamie Osborne, but not at his best lately and similar tactics won't be easy in this field. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
12-race maiden on Flat, useful early in career in Germany, regressive in Britain; bought for 10,500gns at the Newmarket July sales; made a satisfactory introduction to hurdling when third at Roscommon last Monday; can reach the money again. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 135y |

7th 1 (4) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten less than 10l in the German Derby last year; nowhere near that form for Marco Botti or Jamie Osborne but getting back on slower ground could help. |
