9st 9lb |
Refused to race here in May but he has since won over C&D and posted a good third of ten in 6f AW Lingfield handicap when hindered by a customary slow start; likely player if on his A-game again. |

14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
All eight wins over this trip on various ground and was ending a 17-race losing run when making all and just holding on to beat Darkened Edge by a head over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; back up 2lb but could still be dangerous if enjoying an uncontested lead. |

1st 6 (4) |
24th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
On a long losing sequence but recent form includes a couple of encouraging efforts and he did too much up front when fifth of six at Brighton (5f) 19 days ago; needs considering eased 1lb. |
12/1 |

5th 4 (2) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Placed three times from seven starts since returned to turf in May; no match for easy winner when second over C&D (good to firm) last month and remains well below the best of last year's form but still has possibilities; often wears cheekpieces but goes in refitted blinkers today. |

16th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Six-time winner but his losing runs stretches back to October 2024 and a career-low mark saw him only finish fifth of 11 at Windsor (5f) last Monday; however, his sole appearance here, when a runner-up in 2023, was has second-best effort on RPRs and he'll probably pop up again at some point; 1lb out of the handicap. |

5th 5 (2) |

Losing run up to 18, but he has dropped to an attractive mark and has won twice and been placed five times from 12 starts over C&D; one to be interested in. |

14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Running well on the AW last December, including over this C&D, but he's higher in the weights now following a Yarmouth win over 6f in June and, now 0-9 on sand, something extra is needed. |
12/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Opened account in first-time blinkers at Yarmouth (6f, soft) in June and has made the frame on all three starts since, most recently when third at Lingfield (6f AW) a fortnight ago; also suited by Tapeta; probably won't be far away. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
In good form over 6f on turf since blinkered, winning at Yarmouth in June and going down narrowly there last month; having first AW run since before Christmas but he was in good form then and a bold show looks likely. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
The fitting of cheekpieces saw her get off the mark for the season at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in July; finished second in two of her four runs since, including when blinkers (retained) were given a go at Brighton 19 days ago; tongue-tie now enlisted. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 7 (8) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Cheekpieces had a positive early impact during a good spell for her yard last month but she's been below par as favourite the past twice; much will depend on the effect of a new form of headgear. |
8/1 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back in form, following her Salisbury win (6f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) with an unlucky second here and she wasn't beaten far despite finishing sixth last time; mark hasn't really gone anywhere so should be on the scene once more. |

14/1 |
|
8th 8 (9) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (firm) on the second occasion; not written off but below par on last two starts (including here) and needs to get back on track. |
8/1 |

6th 12 (10) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Front-runner who won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March and was runner-up on her next two starts (5f, AW/firm); below par in a classified at Bath (5.7f, good) last time but could bounce back with a bold show back down in trip. |

16th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Five of his last seven wins have come at Brighton, including when he took six-runner handicap (5.5f, good to firm) in August; comparable form back at that track on his last two outings, but they suggest he needs a bit extra from this mark. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Notched a third win over C&D earlier in the month; that race rather fell into his lap, though, with the leaders going off too hard, and he'll find today's company tougher off a 6lb higher mark; not disgraced, having made late headway, here (6f) on Sunday. |
4/1 |
|
5th 6 (10) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Multiple course winner, the latest 18 days ago when he was far too strong for five rivals over 5.3f (good to firm); up 6lb in a deeper race but still feasibly weighted. |

Six-race maiden who was last of 11 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on his stable debut following 627 days ago; never featured over 5f at Lingfield three weeks ago but this step back up in trip may help. |

On a losing run and last two defeats were in races won by Legendsoftheland and Geemann; however, did well to finish second last time after a slow start and not without hope. |
16/1 |

2nd 2 (9) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
His losing run is up to 16 and his form has gone the wrong way this year, but he's 3lb lower than when beaten just a neck at Lingfield (5f, AW) in June and he won this race in 2024; not discounted. |
5/1 |

5th 1 (4) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Winner over this trip but doesn't run over it often now, all starts this year having come over 5f; continues to tumble down the weights but has struggled in two runs back on turf latterly and others make more appeal. |

Got off the mark when landing a classified at Leicester (5f, good) in June; although she has gone close in handicaps on several occasions, she has not been able to land such a contest and doesn't therefore appeal for win purposes. |
