21st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
He was recording his third course win when scrambling home over C&D last week; can win more races but he's effectively 6lb higher today and this will demand more. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Landed his second win at this track, over today's distance, in June off 1lb lower; has acquitted himself well since and his second at Leicester (6f, good to soft) last Tuesday suggests his turn is near once again. |

Beat Midnight's Dream at Wolverhampton (7f) in July when recording a belated first success; stamina stretched over 8.6f last time; more appealing than most. |
6/1 |

7th 2 (10) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

No problem with his consistency, especially on Tapeta, but is just 1-27 and yet to tackle beyond 7f; could go well again, but others are preferred for the win. |
4/1 |

3rd 8 (14) |

Only 1-26 but that win was three runs back over 7f at Wolverhampton and it had been coming; has continued to run well and 6f is fine, as is this track. |

Four sprint wins on the AW, most recently in January; failed to find much on yard debut at Wolverhampton recently and now has something to prove, again going without his regular tongue-tie. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

4-29 AW; close third off this mark here (6f; 12-1) in June; has left Michael Keady for 3,000gns since last appearance; interesting to see how he responds to the change of scenery. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
3yo who advanced her form when making all in two 5f handicaps (Lingfield and Thirsk) on fast ground in July on her third and fourth starts this term; good second on Lingfield AW nine days ago; the latter win was under Poppy Scott who is now back on board; drawn to attack from stall 1 and should go well. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 6 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Off the mark with an emphatic win on turf here (5f, good to firm) last month and she defied a penalty when making all at Thirsk nine days later; that was a narrow success last time but a 3lb rise looks fair enough and she's a big player again back on AW. |

C&D win in January; not in the same form in three runs since April and minor money perhaps his best hope. |

5th 13 (4) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Multiple winner down the years; solid effort on turf three weeks ago and won't mind getting back on AW; looks the likeliest of Phil Mcentee's three runners. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Stable stalwart with 13 wins; not the force of old and contests his first classified; can't discount but likely to find one or two too good. |
7/2 |
|
6th 3 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Both wins on turf have been on ground slower than good and his last four wins have been on the AW; beat only one rival home at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago and now drops back in trip with promising amateur Henry Callan taking over in the saddle; visor back on. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Solid strike-rate on AW but not so good on turf and latest sixth of 12 at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) will need improving on; nothing wrong with this mark, though. |

Hasn't built on his nursery win here in first-time blinkers (6f) last November off 7lb higher; headgear dispensed with for the first time since but hard to warm to. |
4/1 |

6th 10 (3) |
14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Successful in a 6f handicap on Wolverhampton AW on final 2yo start but it's been a grind this year despite dropping 9lb since reappearance; up against it for now. |
14/1 |

5th 6 (5) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |

Nursery win last backend (Tapeta) came in first-time cheekpieces; maybe the switch to first-time blinkers will do the job but it's hard to find any other positives, with him struggling this year and having stamina to prove. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f, good to soft) last month and she would surely have gone close to following up at Newcastle 13 days ago granted a clearer passage, motoring home having had to sit and suffer at a crucial stage of the race; handles soft ground and she's a key player. |
6/1 |
|
7th 8 (1) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four AW wins (all at Wolverhampton) to her name; arrives on the back of a good win at Ayr (6f, good to soft) ten days ago and should be fine at this track; one to consider under her penalty. |
6/1 |
|
1st 8 (2) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
A dual 6f/7f AW winner in 2025; only eighth of 12 in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 11 days ago, and she's not proving easy to catch right this season. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Won three 6f handicaps at Newcastle over the winter when trained by Richard Spencer; two heavy defeats since joining this yard and risky, for all he's dropping in class this time. |
16/1 |
|
11th 12 (6) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Three Newcastle wins for Richard Spencer over the winter, latterly off 5lb lower, and remained competitive before changing hands for 5,000gns; usual tongue-tie/blinkers absent for his new yard latest (same again here), when well below par on turf. |
10/1 |

8th 6 (8) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has been campaigned exclusively on AW where he had three wins over 6f at Newcastle for Richard Spencer; sold for 5,000gns to join new trainer last month and is a fascinating contender back in trip on turf debut for shrewd yard. |

Two of his six wins have been at this track, one of which was over today's distance; best run for a while when fourth of nine at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last month but he needs to back that up here. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Failed to beat a rival on stable debut at Wolverhampton last month when returning from 137 days off (typically started slowly); tongue-tie returns and is a dual winner on turf (5f; one on good to firm) but hard to support. |
33/1 |
|
12th 10 (5) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won two of his first four starts but his losing run is up to 15 and he was short of his best in three runs early in the year; sold for 5,000gns in February and new yard quick to get him back sprinting; worth a market check off his reduced mark. |
12/1 |

11th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
