28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt with a last-gasp win in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f, AW; 18-1) last month; 2lb higher back up in trip, but that was a brave success and he showed plenty of promise on turf last season including when fourth in a valuable sales race at Newmarket; respected. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Not beaten far in a couple of sales races last autumn; not as good in two runs back, getting turned over at odds-on round Redcar before not seeing out 8.6f here early last month, and will need plenty more on this handicap debut. |
12/1 |

4th 6 (11) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Finished second in a Southwell novice last July on only AW start; has since shown decent form in various company at up to 7f on turf, with both blinkers and cheekpieces tried; sets the standard but he was only third at 8-11 at Redcar last time so probably vulnerable again. |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Record on the AW reads 11212; all three wins have come on Tapeta, but he was second of ten here (6f) in April; up 1lb, but still hard to imagine him not being involved. |
7/4 |

2nd 3 (2) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Currently 3-3 on Tapeta, 0-5 on turf and Polytrack combined; can't be any complaints about a 2lb rise for his Southwell win four weeks ago and he won't mind coming back up from 6f; holds leading claims. |
6/4 |

1st 3 (8) |

Dual scorer (5f/7f) at Wolverhampton as 2yo; advanced his form when runner-up in 6f Lingfield handicap on return but never able to challenge in 7f Goodwood handicap since; no surprise to see him bounce back returned to AW. |

18th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
AW winner who doubled his tally when grabbing the favoured stands' rail here 12 days ago; prevailed by only half a length and has a 5lb higher mark today (also had claimed 3lb off his back last time); perhaps vulnerable. |
6/1 |
|
1st 4 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |

Won over 7f at Wolverhampton in May and close up in next two races, at 1m and 7f; finished last at Lingfield 12 days ago but that was over 6f. |
11/2 |

5th 5 (5) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Made the breakthrough at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in May and he's finished a creditable third on turf (1m, good to firm) and Tapeta (7f) since; now returns to sprinting but he has plenty of form at this trip and still looks on a workable mark; in the mix. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Improved RPR each of first four starts (managed a 6f win at Newcastle) but progress has stalled; ran over 7f in last two outings; promising effort at Wolverhampton but weak in the betting and ran accordingly on turf debut at Musselburgh; bit to prove back sprinting; trainer also runs Caviar Cowboy. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
1-7 on AW; ran well before fading into fourth at Wolverhampton (7f) last month, after a break/gelding operation, and remains unexposed over today's trip but needs to find something extra on this turf debut. |
9/1 |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Absent for almost five months, having been gelded following two lesser efforts (raced exclusively on the AW to date); yard enjoyed a good month thus far and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market. |

9st 0lb |
Three ordinary efforts on turf punctuate four solid efforts on the AW, including when coming away with a subsequent easy winner over C&D off 2lb lower in the spring; may well be dropped in again from this draw and will be happier back up from 6f; one to consider. |

10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

7f AW win last September; good second at Wolverhampton on his reappearance but he was a well-beaten third at Newmarket last month (7f, good); others look stronger. |

3rd 5 (4) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Narrowly landed the odds in 7f maiden on AW last September; up against it on final 2yo start but he was gaining with every stride when only just failing on Wolverhampton AW (7f; handicap debut) in April; up 3lb; needs more for the win but should have some improvement in him. |

2-2 on the AW last backend (Polytrack, Tapeta) and holds claims switched back from turf judged on either of her recent Carlisle efforts (among the favourites for a Listed race last time); yard among the winners lately too, which is a bonus. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
2-3 in 2yo campaign and returned to form with close third to Albaydaa in C&D handicap (good to firm) last month; they reoppose on the same terms today and this lightly raced contender is open to further improvement, but she has something to find in today's company. |
12/1 |

3rd 6 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Raced clear in 7f and 6f events on the AW last autumn but she was slightly hampered and done with from a fair way out on her handicap debut at Haydock (1m, good); should come on for the run, though, and no surprise if she shows to better advantage in a less competitive race. |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Highly tried following his successful debut at Ayr (6f, good) in June last year and wasn't up to it; second of nine in a handicap at Chester (7.7f, good to soft) in June, but has enough to prove after a modest AW debut at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) last month. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Highly tried last year; has shown this mark is within range since handicapping this season, including from wide stalls at Chester; again might have been better drawn on this AW debut (dam did her winning for the yard on turf) in first-time headgear. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Plenty of racing last year, when finishing well held in two runs on Tapeta; offered a bit more on latest start but still has stamina to prove, having just a second go beyond 6f, and this race is more competitive. |
25/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |

C&D win last autumn (good to soft) and then ran well in a Doncaster Listed event on heavy going; well held in her two runs this year but now drops in class. |
