15th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Progressive since fitted with headgear and switched to handicaps, winning three times and second twice from five attempts; had next-time-out scorers behind in second/third when gaining latest win at Sandown (1m, good to firm) 22 days ago and a further 6lb rise seems unlikely to prevent a bold bid from this improving 3yo. |

9st 4lb |
Progressive in blinkers before switched to a visor and winning narrowly at Epsom (1m127yds); he did some hanging but that was probably due to the track; a 6lb rise seems hefty enough but he's trending in the right direction. |

Lightly raced 3yo who was evidently well suited by the step up in trip when winning readily at Bath (1m, good) last month; found one too good when odds-on to follow up there (firm) last week but was clear of the others and remains of strong interest; swaps blinkers for first-time visor. |

9st 7lb |
Four good runs this season, the latest a close second at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) three weeks ago; went up 3lb for that but the form was boosted when the winner followed up on Friday; ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

Three good runs this season, the latest a second at Chepstow (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; competes off same mark and will be a tough nut to crack if first-time cheekpieces have any positive effect. |

Sole success came in an AW juvenile novice in December 2024; has ran well to be third on both starts this year at Bath and Salisbury; this also represents a class drop and he shouldn't be far away. |

Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 1lb higher mark (for today's rider); solid efforts on last three starts and he's a leading contender. |

4th 2 (4) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
3lb higher than when winning this race last year, but is off the same mark as when following up at Salisbury (1m, good to soft) next time; looked unlucky not to go even closer when third of eight at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm) 15 days ago and is respected. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Returned to form with second in amateur riders' race at Brighton (1m, good to firm) last month and is still on a good mark but has become far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his habit of starting slowly is another worry. |

21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
The addition of blinkers saw him spring a minor surprise at Bath (1m, firm) in April; not at that level on his last three starts, most recently when ninth behind Marsh Benham at Sandown last month. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Won on reappearance at Bath (1m, firm) in April in first-time blinkers (retained); some respectable efforts since but needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today. |

Came good in first-time blinkers at Bath (1m, firm) in April, after a break, but managed only third in a small field there (1m2f) in May and was soundly beaten on his latest outing; needs to kick on again. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Largely consistent 4yo who came from off the pace to win at Brighton (1m, good) in June; can be excused his recent defeat there (eased when denied clear run) but he's still on a fairly tough mark and this drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 4 |

Largely consistent 4yo who came from off the pace to score over C&D (good) in June; below form at Epsom since, though, and probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark. |

Consistent 4yo who won over C&D (good) last summer and came from off the pace to double his tally at Brighton (1m, good) last month; probably doesn't have much margin for error off new mark but ought to be on the premises. |

9st 9lb |
Looked as good as ever when winning at Lingfield (1m, AW) on seasonal debut in April and again ran well over that C&D last month; didn't fire when back on turf recently (restless in stalls) but has form at this track and enters calculations. |
10/1 |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |

Has a consistent record here (32142132224) and has shown enough since returning on the AW in April to suggest he remains in form; should go well. |

Well suited by switchback tracks and took advantage of a handy mark when winning on his C&D comeback in April; found life tougher off his revised mark in better company here last time but this is more his speed back down 2lb. |

9st 11lb |
Made all for an emphatic win on turf here (7f, good) in May but her form has nosedived at Kempton and Epsom in last two starts; now only 4lb higher than for that last success but she needs a major revival back in trip. |
10/1 |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Gained this season's win at Lingfield (7f, good), where she was allowed to dominate against the favoured nearside rail; also suited but this C&D but ran poorly on Polytrack ten days ago and would appeal more on slower ground. |

9st 2lb |
0-5 on AW; got going too late when never-dangerous fourth from the rear at Lingfield (7f; first-time cheekpieces) last month but that was her first run since January and this longer trip might suit better on her turf debut; blinkers and a tongue-tie are tried this time. |

Runner-up, beaten around 5l, in two Wolverhampton fillies' maidens (7f/6f) in November when trained by Owen Burrows; sold for 28,000gns the following month but two lesser runs for new yard since; wears first-time cheekpieces and has something to prove now. |
