9th 12 (3) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Made all to win a 6f novice at Leicester last summer and a return to positive tactics saw him return to form when third at Newcastle two weeks ago (6f); P J McDonald replaces a 7lb claimer; easy lead seems unlikely in this field, however. |
10/1 |

3rd 7 (4) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who has one standout performance, namely a novice win on turf last July; still needs to prove he's capable of repeating that form. |
16/1 |

24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Useful pedigree and left his first two runs (7f, AW/good) miles behind when easily making all in Leicester novice (6f, good to firm); the strength of that form is open to question, with the odds-on favourite below par in second, but this 3yo may still have been let in lightly on handicap debut. |
7/2 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has good pedigree but was safely held when third of six on debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February and finished well down the field on turf at Doncaster last month; drops in trip here; probably one for handicaps. |
16/1 |

7 (2) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Well-bred colt who cost 120,000euros yearling; 4-1 for a six-runner novice at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February but he weakened quickly and finished a remote third; should benefit from that experience but he needs a transformation after a break. |
