31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has made a good start for Ruth Carr and emerged from midfield to edge home over C&D a month ago; on that run and past exploits, he remains on a useful mark up 4lb. |
8/1 |
|
1st 10 (6) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Two good runs since joining Ruth Carr, fourth of 12 at Newcastle in March and third of 17 at Musselburgh three weeks ago; up in class but should give it another good go. |

Two wins (AW/turf) for previous yard; close fourth at Newcastle (5f, AW) on stable/seasonal debut; fighting chance provided he builds on that effort; similar type to Emerald Harmony. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All three wins have been on AW but she's been knocking on door here (5f, firm/good) in last two starts; nudged up 2lb but she's been as good as ever in her last two runs and should be in the thick of things again. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
She has made steady progress throughout her career, winning three times on AW, and she was unlucky not to register a first turf success when a close third over C&D last week; saw no daylight at a crucial stage on that occasion and the form has already been franked; good chance. |
6/4 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |

Three-time winner on AW, most recently in January; 0-9 on turf and not helped by being 8lb higher than last attempt in this sphere; however, her consistency is a positive. |

Heavy-ground winner as a 2yo; placed twice (5f/7f, good/good to firm) in the spring and faced a stiffer task in Class 3 since; fresh contender who could go well back down in trip/grade. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Regressive maiden who's finished well held in two runs back in 0-50 classified company; would be a surprise winner switching from cheekpieces to a first-time visor. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Made light of a five-month absence when making all in 5f handicap at Bath 35 days ago, holding on by a nose from The Thames Boatman; not taken lightly despite a 3lb rise. |
5/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |

Has done his winning off marks in the 60s; mixed record (some good results, some not so good) off marks in the 70s and he lacks recent match practice; not the percentage call. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Looked as good as ever when holding on to win from the front at Bath (5f, good) this month; also suited by this C&D but managed only fifth on her next two starts and might remain vulnerble off a mark this high. |
5/1 |
|
5th 1 (1) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D win on May 4; came up shy under a penalty at Windsor one week later (race won by Correspondence) but she can race off 2lb lower today; should run her race but it won't be easy trying to dominate in this field. |
9/2 |
|
5th 1 (2) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Did well for Grace Harris in 2025 and she has continued the good work this time around, getting off the mark for the year with a game win at Bath last week (5f, good); has a penalty to shoulder but she is well drawn and should make another bold bid. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Just one win from his 13 starts and inconsistent; however, that victory came over 6f at Doncaster last August and he returned to form with a very close third at Windsor (5f, good to firm) recently; might not be far away. |

Comes with risk having proved inconsistent since Doncaster win (off 2lb higher) last August; however, attractively weighted and Oisin Murphy is a positive booking. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run when winning a 0-55 AW handicap run to suit round Lingfield last time; upped 6lb but was competitive off higher marks on turf last summer and that win may have boosted confidence. |
10/1 |
|
1st 3 (10) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Didn't fire over 7f here last month and is now 0-9 for Chris Gordon but keeping-on fourth of 12 at Kempton (6f) two starts ago was a pretty good effort and he remains on a good mark; considered, despite awkward draw. |
6/1 |
|
8th 4 (2) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sole win was over 6f on turf in July 2024; on reduced mark and was a creditable fourth at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) three weeks ago but that took his record to 1-22 and he's untried at this trip; others are more persuasive. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

11-race maiden who has become disappointing this season; suited by a stiff 6f on fast ground and too well handicapped to rule out but needs change of headgear to give her a boost. |
10/1 |

6th 3 (4) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Ten-race maiden who has not finished closer than seventh in her four runs (5f-7f) this season; mark continues to fall but she needs a major revival back at this trip. |
15/2 |
|
12 (13) |
5th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Showed promise in her first few starts over sprint trips on turf/Tapeta, but she hasn't built on it despite a plummeting mark and an experiment with headgear; dam's side of pedigree suggests the step up in trip may suit, but drawn widest and needs a resurgence. |

28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

3yo who remains a maiden after 16 starts and will need to better this year's exploits if she's to get off the mark today. |
