17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was in April 2025 but that was off 8lb higher at Southwell (1m3f, AW); hit the frame in two starts over C&D this spring and he ran another solid race when fifth of 14 at Kempton (1m) in May; seems tactically versatile and he should be in the mix again after a short break. |

9st 4lb |
Outsider of four when belatedly doubling his tally at Southwell last April (1m3f); hit the frame last two starts (1m2f) but not sure dropping back to 1m will see him play a bigger role this evening; Penfolds Grange looks connections' best hope. |

Had a prolonged consistent spell until showing a dip in his form this spring/summer; well treated if getting back to his peak but others are preferred on recent evidence. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
On the downgrade these days but his latest fourth of 13 at Musselburgh (1m, good) was a fair effort on Monday; will need more from the same mark but this stiffer test should suit. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

Generally struggled this season and the years look to be catching up now; an easy 1m such as this would have been a bare minimum even in his pomp and Thats My Boy Luke may be his yard's best chance. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win (from 15 attempts) came here last July (1m4f, good); went very close behind Clipsham Noble over this C&D (good to firm) last month on his second start of the season; Leicester brings out the best in him and he has solid claims. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 14 starts came when making all over 1m4f here last July (good) and he was returning from eight months off when a solid third of eight at Epsom (1m4f, good) three weeks ago; won't mind the drop back in trip and has to be considered. |

9st 9lb |
0-14 but she finished runner-up twice here (1m/1m1f) last month and had another close call at Wolverhampton two weeks ago; on same mark as for her last two runs and she should make another bold bid; cheekpieces added. |
9/4 |

2nd 2 (3) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive maiden who's found her level for this yard, twice finishing second on turf last month, including over this sort of trip for the first time latest; needs to improve on previous AW work if she's to make it 14th time lucky. |

9st 10lb |
Unplaced in nine starts, but ran with credit when fourth of 11 over C&D last time and the winner has gone in again since; has worn a tongue-tie and visor before, but never together; frame possibilities; stable also runs Thomas Tallis. |
8/1 |

30th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Showed some promise in three outings for the Crisfords as a 2yo, but little in five starts for this yard since returning from a long absence in December; switch to a visor will need to make a big difference. |

Dual winner over this trip on turf in 2024 and didn't run at all badly when fourth of 13 at Brighton (1m2f, good) in June after 221 days off; seven previous goes on the AW leave him with something to prove. |
13/2 |

Last win came in emphatic fashion over C&D (good to soft) in October 2024; still 6lb higher and he may just need this after 221 days off. |

Off the mark at the 22nd attempt when landing a classified event here (1m, good) last month and he ran another good race when runner-up at Ffos Las last time; has 4lb rise to deal with back in a handicap, but he's effective at this trip and has form figures of 2522212 since June; in the mix. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Ex-Irish maiden who did not show a great deal on first three starts for current stable (7f-1m2f); others have much less to prove. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

16-race maiden but he was runner-up in a 0-80 at York (1m, good to firm) last summer; however, he's struggled in two starts since joining this stable and others look to have stronger claims. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win since summer 2024 and nothing like the force of old but placed in this grade on last three appearances; drops back in trip after looking stretched by 1m4f last time; ought to be right in the thick of things. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Unraced beyond an extended 1m on the AW, but neck defeats at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) and at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) in her last two starts suggest this trip should be within range on a sharp track; high on list. |

The winner of two 1m handicaps, on Newcastle AW and here on heavy; capable of going well back at 1m, having raced too freely over 1m4f last time. |
