21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual course winner (6f/7f) and 3lb lower than when successful at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) last September, but he can't be entertained on his performances in the meantime. |

18th 13 (1) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
The winner of 13 races, but just three of them have been on turf; yet to shine this year and he was behind a few of today's rivals over C&D last week. |
20/1 |

12th 14 (12) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Winner of 13 races and just 1lb higher than for the latest, but quiet in two starts at Southwell (6f, AW) since returning in February; needs to step up. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent on turf (without winning) last summer; creditable efforts (fourth to Supreme King and Howzak respectively) over 6f here through the early weeks of 2026; worth another go over 7f, even if it isn't obvious that he's crying out for this longer trip. |
11/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Three-time C&D winner; returned from break with low-key run in December but kept on for fourth over C&D on both subsequent appearances, and can pose a threat from off the pace if this race is run to suit. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three of his five wins have come over C&D and the latest (last January) was off this mark; creditable fourth against stronger opposition over C&D 19 days ago; solid claims. |

8th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a long losing run at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) in April and he's held his form back on turf since, including a close call at Salisbury (6f, soft) and a 2l sixth in a big field at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last month; still looks on a workable mark and he could be a big factor back on AW. |
4/1 |
|
6th 8 (3) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Arrives in top form after a 7f win at Kempton and two second places over 6f; hard to knock and should be thereabouts. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 2 (6) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Unraced on soft; 2-14 on the AW (wins over 7f) compared to 0-11 on turf but it was a good effort when second of ten at Newmarket (6f, good) 24 days ago; contender if handling conditions. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Met trouble in running in a messy C&D handicap two weeks ago; on a dangerous mark if this sets up more favourably. |
12/1 |

3 (6) |
25th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won off a 2lb higher mark at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in April before finishing fourth there over 6f next time; however he's been down the field in four starts since (5f-7f); back on AW. |
20/1 |
|
9 (9) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in April and fared okay back over 6f there (fourth) next time; however, he has scarcely managed to beat a rival in his last three appearances (5f-7f) which suggests that he'll find life tough, particularly from this wide draw. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a pair of 6f handicaps at Doncaster in early summer but he's been well below par both runs since, only 17th in 6f York handicap last time; lots more is needed. |
25/1 |
|
17th 9 (7) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Progressive sprinter in 2025 (following wind surgery) and he has carried on the good work this year, winning 6f handicaps at Doncaster in May (good to soft) and June (good to firm); well beaten at Thirsk 24 days ago, however, and this is a deeper race. |
40/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Progressive sprinter in 2025 (following wind surgery) and he has carried on the good work this year, winning 6f handicaps at Doncaster in May (good to soft) and June (good to firm); up 4lb in a stronger race but he may not have finished progressing just yet. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Bagged a pair of 6f handicaps at Catterick and Epsom in early summer; comes here on the back of a very good nose second of eight in 6f Epsom handicap a week ago; another bold showing is on the cards off an unchanged mark. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Began this season with two wins, latterly when holding on by a short head to make all over C&D (good) in early July; probably doesn't have much margin for error off current mark but returns here after a respectable eighth of 26 at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago. |
5/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Reappeared with a win at Catterick (6f, good) in April and then made all at Epsom (6f, good) this month; faded late on to finish sixth of seven at Hamilton since but he can be made to look well treated on the Epsom form (beat Amazing Journey) and his yard is no stranger to sprint handicap success at this meeting. |

3rd 3 (9) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Poor strike-rate (1-30); beaten a neck over 6f at Southwell (Class 6) in February but less productive in three subsequent appearances (6f-7f), although with mitigating circumstances (saddle slipped) latest. |
11/2 |
|
5th 5 (10) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Winless since August 2024 but he comes here in decent nick, fifth of nine in 7f Lingfield handicap 17 days ago; place prospects off an easing mark. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Effective at 6f and 7f but his sole win was in a Carlisle novice in August 2024; went close off this mark at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) last month but was never involved when a remote fourth there last time; that was behind a handicap blot but he needs to step up again after that. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Creditable second on seasonal/stable debut at Thirsk (6f, good) in May, but not seen again until disappointing AW run last week (finished lame); could still have untapped potential over 7f but is not easy to predict. |
10/1 |
|
12th 4 (14) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Modest strike-rate but she ran well on her seasonal and stable debut at Thirsk (6f, good), finishing second of 17; 2lb rise fair enough and she needs serious consideration. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 5 (6) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won just one of her 19 starts for Alice Haynes but it came at this track (5f, soft); her best effort in 2025 came on seasonal return (6f, good to firm) and although she ended the campaign quietly it was over 7f and 1m; sold for 1,200gns in December; intriguing runner on stable debut. |
