1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up off today's mark on stable debut at Ripon (6f, good) in June but subsequent 6f/7f form has been underwhelming, albeit he was denied a clear run last time; wore cheekpieces for last two races; visor given a whirl today. |
5/1 |
|
9th 7 (9) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All three wins have been here but over 7f and for different yards; however, close up on stable debut over 6f at Ripon and last run wasn't too bad as he was never in the right place at Lingfield; don't put a line through him. |
8/1 |

5th 4 (7) |
4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Second of seven on stable debut at Ripon (6f, good) in June but failed to back it up at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm); returning to 6f may help but all three AW wins have come at Southwell. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-35, with the latest success coming at Lingfield (7f, AW) in December off a mark 8lb higher than today's; never featured over this trip at Wolverhampton 31 days ago and better is needed. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, and most racing, come over 7f, including when making all on his second start for this yard on Polytrack off 6lb higher in the winter; not at his best lately and, while well drawn, may not get his own way as he likes back down in trip. |
16/1 |

7th 6 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield in December, his second start for Mark Loughnane; in and out since that success but no doubt he is handicapped to go well and he has run well over C&D in the past (including finishing second in this race year off 4lb higher); one to consider with Billy Loughnane back in the saddle. |

27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Winner here at 1m who has also been involved in tight finishes over C&D, most recently in January; this will probably take more winning though and he needs more than he's shown on his last two turf starts. |
9/1 |
|
13th 19 (15) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Good C&D record includes a win in this race (good to firm) off 1lb higher last year; good second at Southwell (7f) in January but always behind over C&D four months later; may well have needed that outing but needed to see more to be confident. |

2nd Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 0y |
8st 13lb |
First reserve; only 7s when beaten 8l behind Orandi over 1m here on Tuesday, weakening up the hill; good record over this trip, though, and ground-versatile, so not one to dismiss. |
|
|
7th 15 (11) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
8st 12lb |
Ended 2025 with a pair of heavy-ground wins at Doncaster (7f); useful form in defeat this year, in the frame in competitive York handicaps (good ground) on consecutive days last month; another good run when fifth of 17 on quick going at the same venue last time; ground-versatile, trip a worry. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ended 2025 in good order and he was a good second over 1m here on his return in January; three heavy defeats have followed and there is likely to be other pace for him to contend with today; drops in class but others appeal more. |
16/1 |
|
8th 9 (3) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has had a couple of close calls over C&D this winter but he's lost his way in last two starts and was tailed off at Newcastle (1m) three weeks ago; has something to prove and he needs a major revival. |
25/1 |
|
12th 11 (2) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
1m winner (good and good to soft); on a handy mark if able to return to last season's form but has been well below that level this time; tongue-tie now accompanies usual cheekpieces; trainer also runs Spirit Genie. |
20/1 |
|
18th 14 (18) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |

Ex-Henry de Bromhead; Ffos Las winner for current yard in June last year (1m, good to soft), but has beaten just two horses home in his two runs this term. |
50/1 |
|
11th 1 (7) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
In fine form last summer, scoring at Ffos Las (1m) and signing off with an excellent second over 1m2f here; set a lot to do on his return from eight months off when tenth in 7f Thirsk handicap 19 days ago; should strip sharper now and he's very much one to consider back up in trip. |

19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual winner since a visor was added in February and he ran another good race when a close fifth of 18 at York (7f, good to firm) last month; 1lb lower here and he should be in the thick of things again. |
15/2 |
|
5th 10 (4) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
He's done well since this visor went on and he won a big-field C&D handicap (good) in May; merely midfield here four weeks ago but the blindfold was removed late and he was stretched by 1m; in calculations back at 7f. |
8/1 |
|
7th 13 (10) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Record of 4-15 overall and 2-5 since wearing visor; campaigned exclusively over shorter but the manner of his half-length success in big field at York (7f, good) last time suggests this new trip is worth exploring; enters calculations in the retained headgear. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Winner here off 2lb lower last October, his third over C&D; last month's Chester comeback from a short break should have brought him on and he holds each-way claims under Oisin Murphy, who boasts a good record for the yard. |
8/1 |
|
7th 6 (10) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time AW winner who was knocking on the door at Wolverhampton (8.6f/7f) in his final two starts in the spring; only 1lb higher than for his last run but this is tougher back up in grade and he's 1-25 on turf; has some work to do from high draw after a break. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
One win (C&D) and three second-place finishes in six AW starts since October; front-running second, beaten a nose, over 8.6f here four weeks ago; in the mix again. |

10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Just 3-26 on turf but this C&D does work well for him and he gained a deserved first win on the track when just fending off Uncle Don (good to firm) in May; has had going (good to soft) and trip (5f) excuses since but this company could be overwhelming. |
16/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Ended 2025 with three consecutive 6f AW wins and was successful twice on turf in the spring (5.7f/6f); does not have much margin for error off current mark, though, and this 63rd career start is his first over 5f. |
11/2 |

5th 2 (8) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

C&D winner; five wins since joining Tony Carroll, including turf handicaps in two of his last three starts; should give his running once again but may prove vulnerable for win purposes. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Not the most consistent but still capable on his day, as when winning a 6f handicap at Newcastle in December (2lb higher today); handy draw and no surprise to see him show up well. |

7th 6 (2) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Sole win from 18 starts on the AW came at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December and bounced back to form when runner-up there ten days ago; makes each-way appeal returned to 7f off a 2lb lower mark (4lb well in). |
