7th 5 (8) |
25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Useful winner over 1m2f and 1m3f on turf for James Owen last season; raced freely and likely needed his 1m3f Carlisle return for new yard 26 days ago; promising third on debut on previous AW start. |
10/1 |

8th 3 (6) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Highly impressive C&D winner (soft ground; handles good) on handicap debut last June; didn't build on that in two subsequent runs but has been gelded and switched stables; still low-mileage and his new yard has been among the winners; fascinating contender. |
9/1 |
|
6th 3 (4) |
6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Maiden winner who laughed at his opening mark when scooting home by 4l at Carlisle in June (1m3f, soft; 9lb lower); difficult to gauge what he achieved when last of the seven in a 1m3f good-ground Listed race at Hamilton, going down by under 2l in a slowly run race; remains an unknown quantity. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-William Haggas; followed up his easy Leicester win in June (1m2f, good; made virtually all) by finishing runner-up off a 10lb higher mark at Goodwood last month; up another 3lb and tries 1m4f for the first time; interesting. |
6/1 |

2nd 14 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
1-8 for William Haggas; second run for new connections when he resumed improvement to make all in ten-runner race at Leicester (1m2f, good; acts on good to firm) in June, well clear through the final 2f; those wins are two of the four times he's made the running, which will be more difficult in this larger field and after a 10lb rise but he looked good last time. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 137y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Seven-race maiden, with four seconds including at Doncaster (1m4f; odds-on) and Pontefract (2m1f; made most in first-time cheekpieces) on his two starts this season; reverts to just a tongue-tie and relatively unexposed as a stayer but others have to be more persuasive. |

|
2nd 1 (7) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
0-6 but he has recorded an RPR of 84 or more in each of his last five starts; beaten at odds-on at Doncaster on his reappearance (1m4f, good to firm) four weeks ago; stepping up to a marathon trip could prompt further progress, as could the new cheekpieces; shortlisted. |
2/1 |

2nd 5 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Shaped well without getting his head in front last season, signing off with a good fourth in the Melrose at York in August; this brother to the Irish Oaks winner Sea Of Class has since been gelded and looks a good prospect for 2026; player. |

23rd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well-bred filly but she hasn't progressed so far and was a well-held sixth on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in November; left Harry Charlton for 20,000gns since; still early days but she needs improvement upped in trip for new yard; hood worn last time is removed. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Shaped with promise when fourth in 1m2f maidens at Ascot (good to firm) and Chepstow (good) in May; should do better and won't need significant progress to play a major role. |
6/1 |

4th 10 (3) |

Nathaniel half-sister to two winners; weak 20-1 chance at Ascot (1m2f, good to soft) so it was an encouraging effort to go down by 3.5l and she was keeping on; respected. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
13-race maiden; gave it a good go but found one stronger late on at Thirsk (1m6f, good to firm; 12-1) six weeks ago; stable continues to go well and this 4yo is only 1lb higher back over 2m; possibilities. |
4/1 |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Still a maiden after 12 starts and was last of four in a Doncaster handicap (14.5f, good to firm) two weeks ago; wasn't beaten far in that race but he needs to find more to get off the mark. |
15/2 |

4th 3 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 5 |

Still a maiden and latest close third at Catterick (2m, good to firm) came in a field of four, so that form looks a tad dubious. |

9st 10lb |
Runner-up in Kempton novice (1m3f, AW) in July but she's finished a remote fourth of five in both subsequent runs and latest was on handicap debut at Kempton last month; still unexposed but she has something to prove on this big step up in trip. |
12/1 |
|
5 (1) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Thrice-raced filly who posted clear best effort, namely second (ahead of Dysart Enos) over 1m3f at Kempton, in sole AW attempt; return to this venue may enable her to repeat the form. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Half-sister to two Group 3 winners; beaten 12l when 28-1 at Chepstow (1m2f, good) in May but kept at it well when second of 13 at Kempton (1m3f, AW; 25-1) five weeks later, finishing 2l ahead of the running-on Mission Possible; more should be needed if she's to deal with Zilfee. |

9th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Went chasing late in her career but she's making a good fist of it and was going best from some way out when winning at Exeter (3m, good) in March; no blame attached for defeat next time and she didn't appreciate the 3m2f trip at Fontwell recently; a sharp 3m should suit; close up. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 7 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 210y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Made the breakthrough over fences with 10l win at Exeter (3m, good) last month; was beaten by 10l when third of four at Plumpton (3m2f) last time but that was behind two progressive 6yos and her jockey went for home a circuit too soon; still has potential as a staying chaser and she's in the mix off same mark as last time. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 3m 1f 157y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
1-10 over hurdles and now 1-6 as a chaser after drawing clear for a 10l success at Exeter (3m, good); raised 7lb for winning that weak contest but there's no depth to this, either. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Fairly uncompetitive in all his nine races, in this headgear combination in last two starts; needs to find something from somewhere and there are doubts about the slow ground. |

|
7th 9 (4) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Unplaced all eight starts; seemingly aided by first-time hood when respectable fourth of seven at Bath (1m2f, firm) last month but needs to find something extra over this longer trip. |
16/1 |
|
4th 7 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Seven-race maiden who last two efforts (8.5f/1m4f, AW) suggest this return to 1m2f, combined with first-time hood, may prove ideal; improvement is not out of the question. |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Just behind Balgowan from the front at Lingfield (turf) six weeks ago before giving herself no chance of seeing it out last time (testing 2m1f) thanks to pulling too hard; may well get her own way if that's the plan and should fare better. |
