21st Sep 2026 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Ran on well for clearcut success under Toby Moore at Kempton (6f, AW) a week ago and has now won three times this season; should cope quite well with the forecast slower ground here; respected under 5lb penalty. |

1st 1 (4) |
14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Her strike-rate on turf is nothing special but she's 2-6 on artificial surfaces and only just failed to overhaul the front-runner at Lingfield (6f) under Toby Moore on her latest AW start; another good run is likely. |
7/2 |
|
4th 9 (4) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Turned things around with a win at Wolverhampton last month and she followed up in a Ffos Las handicap (5f, good); couldn't quite get the job done in her hat-trick bid at Lingfield (6f, AW), but that was another big run and she's only 1lb higher on this drop back in trip; shortlisted. |

12th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
No longer the force of old but was close third off today's career-low mark here (6f, good) eight days ago; eased in grade today and can handle the drop back to 5f; must be considered. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins came at York when trained by Richard Hannon; denied a clear run when finishing fifth of ten at Sandown (6f, good to firm) ten days ago; has dropped to a career-low mark but may be getting his act together. |
6/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Spoiled chance by refusing to settle on seasonal/stable but this month's midfield finish at Newbury (6f, good to firm) was more encouraging; has slipped to a dangerous mark and should now be approaching concert pitch. |

15th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner for Tom Ward as a 2yo and running consistently well lately, beaten a neck at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) last Thursday; a player from the same mark. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
5f AW winner for Tom Ward as a 2yo; three solid runs for her new stable last month, most recently a close second at Ffos Las (5f, good) two weks ago; well drawn for a front-runner; should be in the thick of it. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won a 5f AW maiden last summer; 0-7 in handicaps but she hasn't performed badly in two runs for this yard; acts on good and good to soft but unproven on slower. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Can be slowly away but not last time when a cosy winner at Brighton (6f, good to firm); up 4lb but has competitive form off this sort of mark. |
8/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Generally in good form since cheekpieces went on but she's been costing herself with slow starts lately; won't mind coming back up from 5f and much will hinge on how she gets on at the stalls. |
14/1 |
|
4th 4 (9) |
12th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Largely consistent mare who belatedly opened her account at Bath (5f, good) in June, her 19th start; also ran well when close third at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) on latest outing; shortlisted. |

21st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Struggled in handicaps following her Lingfield maiden win last September; now 7lb lower than for her last run in an AW handicap; tongue-tie experiment quickly aborted. |
25/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
12th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Raced exclusively over 6f during seven-race career; soundly beaten in all four handicaps since winning AW maiden in September; drops in trip with tongue-tie added here; needs to get career back on track. |
13/2 |

5th 1 (7) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a Lingfield maiden (6f, AW) in September but has struggled in three handicap starts since, most recently on her reappearance at Kempton in April; off since and now returns off a 3lb lower mark. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Ran well for second at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) on her belated seasonal return (after a wind op) but two handicap runs since have seen her finish down the field; too much to prove for comfort. |
16/1 |
|
6th 2 (3) |
12th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Unexposed 3yo; displayed improvement when second in Nottingham novice on last month's seasonal debut but was safely held when fifth of seven in subsequent Lingfield handicap (also 5f good to firm) and will clearly need to fare better here. |
8/1 |
|
5th 7 (5) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Unexposed 3yo who returned after a year off with a promising second in a Nottingham novice (5f, good to firm; first run after wind surgery) three weeks ago; flashed her tail in that race but it's still early days and she needs a close look on handicap debut. |

8st 5lb |
Struggled on all three starts this season, most recently when last of nine in basement-grade Lingfield classified (1m, AW) last month; can't be recommended on this return to sprinting. |
66/1 |

9th 9 (2) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Struggled in maiden/novice events including two tailed-off efforts at massive prices this summer; now drops into a 0-50 event but she needs a transformation at this new trip. |

9th 8 (6) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 80y Class 4 |
