9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Last of seven in 8.5f Beverley maiden 15 days ago; ventures into handicaps now with plenty more required. |

24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Beaten 22l and 12l in maidens at Doncaster and Leicester; probably one for handicaps. |

3rd Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Keen early and weakened to be beaten 22l at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; 22-1); the hood is retained and he's since been gelded; enough to prove. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 177y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Unplaced favourite in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) but bounced back to win the competitive Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago; defied joint-top weight last time and he could give a good account now up in grade; has shown promise on soft. |
14/1 |

1st 2 (20) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Contrasting performances since fitted with hood, winning readily at Meydan but disappointing favourite in the Royal Hunt Cup returned to British soil; something to prove off an unchanged mark, which remains 10lb above the last one he raced off prior to UAE stint. |
16/1 |
|
20th 6 (18) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
In good form at Meydan this year for new yard, most recently scoring readily in first-time hood to take his 1m record to 22111 (all wins on good/firmer); may have even more to offer over this trip in the retained headgear; sound claims. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 164y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Runner-up in two juvenile hurdles in December but failed to live up to that in his four subsequent starts, including a 2m1f handicap here on final outing; needs a revival over new trip, which he isn't bred for. |
16/1 |
|
7th 4 |
28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Runner-up in two juvenile hurdles in December, the latter at Kempton (2m, good) just after Christmas; well handicapped if judged on that form but has not run over hurdles since a lesser effort in January, and was well held in a basement-grade Flat race when returning last month. |
10/1 |
|
10th 4 (10) |
13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't show a great deal on the Flat for Jack Channon last year (unplaced all six runs) but came second in two juvenile hurdles for new stable in December; absent since January but still looks quite interesting in this basement grade on Flat return. |

22nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Two wins include one on the AW at Newcastle last November; also won a handicap at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm; made all) in April but he's struggled on his last four starts; blinkers need to make a difference. |
16/1 |
|
7th 2 (4) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
The season started well but this front-runner has dropped away tamely in his last three races, albeit strong handicaps; this might not be so challenging and could go well if getting any freedom up front. |
14/1 |
|
8th 1 (2) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Made all at Yarmouth (good to firm) on his April return and it was a fine effort when third at Newbury (also 1m2f, good) a fortnight later; couldn't maintain his lead in better events subsequently but this drop back in grade should see him last longer. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Favourite for handicap debut over C&D (good) in July and duly showed vastly better form, getting on top in a sustained duel with the second; 10-11 at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago and, although he took some pushing, he was comfortably on top through the final 1f; raised another 4lb but may well have more to give. |
2/1 |
|
1st 5 (5) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Quiet maiden runs at about 1m but went off favourite for handicap debut at Haydock (1m2f, good) and got the better of a sustained duel with the second (pair clear); raised 7lb but that might not be the end of the world. |
6/4 |
|
3 (2) |
19th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Modest efforts to date, last two with a hood (left off here); step up to 1m2f should suit and he's an unexposed sort who can improve on handicap debut. |

17th Sep 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice over C&D last autumn, including his stable debut in November off 2lb lower; his latest C&D second was a remote one and perhaps vulnerable for win purposes again. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Ran poorly last time, taking turf record to 0-6; broadly consistent on AW otherwise for current yard and he is 2-2 over C&D, the wins gained last autumn; 3-8 overall in this sphere; likely to be played late by Jamie Spencer (up for first time) and has possibilities back here. |
9/2 |
|
9th 8 (1) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Headgear helped on AW last September-December, including for 1m6f/2m hat-trick; peak form was not repeated this year, including in two small fields this spring but they were at 1m3f/1m4f; returning to 2m should be a big help but none of his turf form (five races) approaches this mark. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
0-8; best effort was when second of 11 in a Yarmouth maiden (7f, good) in July, but his efforts in handicaps since leave plenty to be desired. |
14/1 |
|
10 (1) |
10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Not matched his maiden/novice form in three handicap runs; cheekpiece experiment quickly aborted; not easily recommended. |
16/1 |
|
11 (5) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Mixed bag in his six starts, with his two handicap runs yielding heavy defeats; lacklustre run at Southwell last time has seen connections turn to headgear; others look safer. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Improved once returned to AW and bagged a hat-trick across October and December (1m); on the scoresheet again upped to 9.5f at Wolverhampton (career-best form) in February; form took a slight dip on last two starts, while his earlier turf form isn't comparable so interesting to see how he fares back on grass. |
16/1 |
|
10th 9 (6) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Record in AW handicaps reads 11124135; pulled his chance away at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) last month, but may settle better in this bigger field; one for the shortlist. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Unplaced in all seven starts; he has shown some promise but he doesn't look progressive and connections now reach for headgear. |
10/1 |
|
9 (4) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
0-6 though he has shown some ability since switching to handicaps, albeit he proved a disappointing favourite at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) last month after missing the break; not sure dropping back in trip is the answer. |
8/1 |
|
6th 2 (9) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not that threatening in his last two handicaps (1m/1m2f) but ran okay to be fourth, showing similar sort of form; dropped into a Class 6 here and should have some say. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Long odds-on when winning a 1m maiden at Pontefract (good) and achieved more in defeat when going down narrowly on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm); did get competitive some way out with Silent City which left both vulnerable when it mattered; much respected. |
7/2 |
|
2 (1) |
12th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Well-connected filly who made a more experienced and promising Haggas filly work at Ffos Las in July and she didn't have to improve to get off the mark at Pontefract (also 1m, good) 16 days ago, proving game from the front; should be open to improvement now handicapping. |

14th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |

Turf and Tapeta winner (1m-1m2f) who is 5lb higher than her latest win and still has a bit to prove over this far; others preferred. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (2) |
2nd Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't see out 1m6f at Wolverhampton last month but posted career-best performance when winning by over 4l at Leicester (1m2f, good to soft) a few days earlier and is also suited by Tapeta; enters calculations. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (7) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins this year, at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in June and a comfortable success at Leicester (1m2f apprentice event, good to soft) a week ago; races off the same mark as last time and although yet to race over this far, being by Sixties Icon raises hope. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Won off 2lb higher at Southwell (1m, AW) last autumn but she's struggled since and has been beaten 10l or more in her three runs this season; has plenty to prove and she needs a big turnaround. |

1st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Won a 1m AW handicap in October off this mark but hasn't built on that in a big way; she also has stamina to prove. |

4th 6 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Came good at Southwell (1m, AW) in October, his second handicap, but has gone the wrong way since; in rear throughout at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last month, after a break, and needs to have taken significant benefit from that outing. |
