26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has done all his winning on Newcastle AW; however, finished a good second over C&D most recently and is due to go back up 1lb in future; holds a fighting chance in his attempt to go one better. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (4) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Five-time AW winner, the latest (May) his first over 7f; still seeking a first turf success but his two best runs on the grass came over C&D last summer; not discounted. |
10/1 |
|
13th 22 (9) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Last of 20 over 6f last May on his only race here, before finishing on the heels of the leaders twice over 7f at Doncaster; 0-11 on turf and not the most consistent but he won at Newcastle on two of his last three AW starts and the latest was over 7f; 6lb lower today and needs a close look. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Operating below last year's peak form but posted sound effort when third at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last week and remains on same mark as for emphatic C&D success in November; no surprise if he features. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Went close over C&D (good to firm) last month and 1m seemed to stretch him back here since (all wins at 7f, including here); his last success came off this mark; likely to be on the premises under Rodriguez. |
5/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Returned from a break with good third at Ayr (7f, good to firm) in May and he went very close here (7f, good to firm) last Friday; he's done all of his winning at 7f but can be in the mix if the return to 1m isn't an issue. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won the Legends Classified Stakes here (1m; 40-1) last September; knocking on the door over 7f here (23) in recent times; competitively weighted from an unchanged mark, and a danger to all if allowed uncontested lead back at 6f. |
4/1 |

3rd 5 (4) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Broadly inconsistent but his form at Doncaster features a success in last year's Leger Legends race and resurgent effort behind Bella Bisbee in latest start; better off with that rival and due to go back up 1lb in future. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 10 (9) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Made all in the Leger Legends race here last September (1m, good to soft); yet to shine this season but he's becoming dangerously well treated. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has gained last three wins on AW, including latest start; effective on turf but has never won away from Leicester in this sphere; something to prove back up in grade. |
10/1 |
|
1st 2 (9) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Three 7f wins on AW elsewhere, most recently at Southwell in April; a quick return didn't pay off there next time and he was always behind when returned to turf at Leicester last month; has run well over C&D in the past, though, so he may be more himself this time. |
12/1 |
|
7th 7 (5) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Resumed winning ways in 7f Southwell handicap in April but he beat only two home back there eight days later; this C&D scorer needs to bounce back. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Likes it here; came back to form last Wednesday at Lingfield (turf) but has little room for manoeuvre off this mark, albeit she'll be 1lb higher from the weekend; vulnerable to improvers. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Tends to win in her turn and it was a sixth success (second on turf) when taking 7f Doncaster handicap (good) five weeks ago; lesser form in two subsequent runs over that C&D, including when borderline tailed off a fortnight ago. |
11/1 |

10th 7 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

9st 2lb |
Third at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in May and won there (7f, good to firm) in June; soundly beaten sixth of seven there (7f, good to firm) last time; this lightly raced 4yo is not written off but needs to bounce back. |
10/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has performed well over C&D (good to firm) in last two starts, finishing third then opening her account; this low-mileage 4yo may well improve further; respected kept to same scenario. |
7/2 |
|
1st 3 (12) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who left behind a disappointing reappearance effort over 6f at Leicester when third of ten over C&D (good to firm) five weeks ago; a low-mileage profile provides hope that she can take another step forward today; shortlisted. |

26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has largely consistent form, close fourth at Leicester (7f) most recently; however, he's the only maiden in this field and chance of winning partly depends on the effects of added tongue-tie. |
6/1 |

4th 6 (7) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Is 0-9 but he comes here in decent nick, fifth of nine in 6f handicap here 26 days ago; in the mix back up to 7f now. |
11/1 |

5th 9 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Couple of decent efforts under aggressive Harry Vigors rides in 7.2f Wolverhampton handicaps since the cheekpieces went on; first crack at sprinting on his turf debut and is one to consider. |
