3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice at Newcastle in March (1m and 7f); beaten favourite in all three handicap runs on turf but he has shown a useful level of ability in defeat; needs a bit more to defy this mark but getting back on AW may be beneficial. |

3rd Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual novice winner, at 1m then 7f; close up in two 1m handicaps, looking likely to win in the new cheekpieces at Ayr (good to firm) until collared late on; drops to 7f with blinkers now tried and hard to rule out. |

4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Much better record on turf than AW, though one she failed to enhance at Newbury 20 days ago; that was underwhelming. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Sole effort this year took her AW record to 0-6; has form figures of 26221 on turf, the success in Musselburgh maiden (1m, good); return to this sphere is the angle with her. |

2nd Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
5yo mare who won a Musselburgh maiden (1m, good) last summer; back from short break with close third in a C&D handicap in November but she wasn't in the same form on her return visit the following month; bit to prove again after that and she's now 1-10. |

Her two best efforts have come over C&D but others bring stronger credentials. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Tends to be slowly away and is the type who needs everything to drop right if he's to win, but he's run several good races on AW this year and was fourth of 14 back on turf at Thirsk (7f, good) recently; in the mix. |
7/1 |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Three-time winner who is fine at 7f or 1m; has been running well for a while and latest effort in the new visor at Newcastle can be upgraded. |
14/1 |
|
7th 11 (2) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Running well at this level in recent weeks, coming from last to first over 1m here before finishing second at Wolverhampton (8.6f) and Southwell (1m); just as effective at 7f; the blinkers he's worn on his last five starts are now replaced by a first-time visor; should go well again. |

22,000euros yearling who is related to a couple of winners in Spain; market should be best guide to prospects on racecourse debut. |
