12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Got behind after a slow start here last time but still got to within a head of the winner; the hood is removed but one to consider. |
4/1 |

2nd 4 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
2lb lower than when winning over this C&D last May and took a step back in the right direction, following some lesser efforts, when fourth of 13 here 24 days ago; needs to build on that but he's a contender if doing so. |
7/2 |

4th 9 (1) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Couple of ordinary efforts on the AW since unseating in February but he returns to turf on a career-low mark, 1lb lower than when winning over C&D last spring; the hood returning could help and he ought to fare better. |

9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has form figures of 31122 since handicapping and that latest second was a close call at Wolverhampton (8.6f; lost right hind shoe) two weeks ago; only 1lb higher in this similar race and he's open to more progress back on Polytrack; big player. |
3/1 |

2nd 12 (7) |
23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Progressive since handicapping, winning 7f events here and at Kempton this spring; solid second at Bath last time (1m, firm; slowly-run race); could take another step forward back on AW and he has the assistance of a leading amateur; would have more to prove over an extended mile if they go a strong pace |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
14th May 2025 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Has proved a different proposition since switching to handicaps following a gelding operation, winning two of his last three starts (all three over 7f on AW); now steps up to a 1m (he's speedily bred) on this return to turf under a penalty, 4lb higher than for last week's Kempton win; respected in his hat-trick attempt. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-11 on the Flat and 0-4 over hurdles; made a fairly encouraging handicap hurdle debut when sixth of 13 at Southwell (2m, good) this month, though, and might be boosted by refitted cheekpieces here. |
7/1 |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Modest maiden on Flat and a similar story over hurdles, all maidens; handicaps are now a better option but he's unconvincing. |
20/1 |

1st Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Modest maiden on Flat; reached the frame on the first of two hurdle outings at Huntingdon in recent months but the form is barely modest; more needed. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Finished second both previous starts over C&D and also won two classified events when trained by Jack Channon; well beaten in two starts on the Flat since joining this stable, however, and was pulled up over hurdles 40 days ago; others preferred. |
20/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
A fair 1m Flat winner for Jack Channon last summer but yet to fire for his current yard under both codes, tried in cheekpieces when eighth in 1m4f AW Lingfield handicap in January; not easy to make a case for. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
In-form filly who has been placed twice (1m2f/1m) since last month's comfortable win at Bath (1m, firm); lost out only by a short head when back at Bath a week ago and is 1lb ahead of the handicapper for this first attempt at 1m4f; has big role to play if stamina holds out. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
22nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Just two wins from 30 starts but her last success was by 4l over C&D (firm) last month and she backed that up with a close third at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm); on same mark as last time and she should be in the thick of things again. |
6/1 |

3rd 1 (9) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Ended a losing run in emphatic style at Bath (1m) ten days ago; hiked up 9lb but not taken lightly on her first go over 1m2f. |

26th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
12-race maiden who has been well beaten in his last two runs but he failed to see out 1m2f last time and was placed a few times earlier in the year, going close over C&D in March; each-way possible now back down in trip. |
14/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
12th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Went close off 2lb higher at Newcastle (1m, AW) in March and was good third at Yarmouth next time, but his form has cooled in last two starts; has bit to prove again and he's now 0-11; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
10/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
14th May 2025 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
0-10 but he's been generally consistent since joining this yard in January; behind Paragon when fourth of 13 at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last week and needs a bit more in the added cheekpieces (has tried blinkers and hood) to turn those placings around. |
7/1 |
