26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time winner at 1m2f (good to firm) although that was back in 2022/23 and his last success came over 1m6f at Sandown in July; tailed off on final start last term and two runs (1m4f) this season contained little encouragement. |

C&D winner but he ended 2025 below par and beat one on his return from six months off in 1m4f Kempton handicap three weeks ago; needs to take a major step forward. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Did well last season, including a win over 1m4f in April but he was best later on at about 2m (including at York); reappearance this term was pretty encouraging, considering it was over just 1m2f, and he looks a serious each-way contender. |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Did well for his new yard last season, winning twice (1m4f/2m, good to firm); his current mark maybe isn't beyond him but he's never run over a trip this short and he's probably vulnerable on his reappearance. |
12/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Regular improvement for new yard, including a win at the Shergar Cup at Ascot (2m, good to firm) in August and going oh so close off this mark in three-way photo at York (2m, good) on latest outing; he's well handicapped and, with a good chance that 2m2f will help with further progress, another bold show should be on its way. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Four-time winner on the Flat for Richard Hughes and it's been a promising start over hurdles, winning a Southwell maiden last time without too much fuss (good); penalised accordingly but sets the standard. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Fairly useful four-time AW Flat winner in these silks for Richard Hughes and promising second of ten on his Warwick hurdle debut (2m, good to soft) for Olly Murphy 24 days ago; entitled to improve and the one to beat. |

Four-time AW winner at up to 2m on Flat for Richard Hughes, reaching an RPR of 85 (has shown a similar level of form on turf); remains with same owner; has the potential to become a fairly useful hurdler. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Hurdles debutante whose Flat efforts for new yard leave a doubt over her current form; previously a fairly useful sort (peak RPR 87) so brings potential provided a resurgent display materialises. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Won on AW and turf for Hughie Morrison at up to this trip; not that competitive in two runs for current yard and all headgear is now removed; bit risky. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
2-13 overall and 1-8 in handicaps, the handicap win in a four-runner race (1m2f) last November; probably stays 1m6f but did not show it on latest outing; 5lb lower today than at start of this season but the first-time tongue-tie seemingly needs to make a difference. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Quite lightly raced since 2023 (when a fairly useful 1m6f scorer) but he took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 11 in 1m4f Southwell handicap two weeks ago, doing best of those coming off a steady pace; very much one to consider off a 2lb lower mark. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |

Has been a useful handicapper in his time but he was pulled up lame at Newbury in August and then tailed off over 2m here last month; tumbling down the weights but comes with risk attached. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won his first five handicaps (including on Tapeta, unproven on Polytrack) but the last of those was in July 2024; generally disappointing since and, after 307 days off, this is a new trip on first run since changing hands and leaving Harry Charlton. |

24th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |

Made it 5-5 in handicaps (including C&D, and on soft and fast ground) when winning at Newcastle last July and he was a good second on AW last October; however, he hasn't been at the top of his game on either run this year. |

14th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Won his first five handicaps at about 1m4f on varying surfaces but his mark took a hit and he didn't run much of a race on his comeback at Thirsk, having been gelded; reservations on the back of that. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
His last win was two years ago but he's on a dangerous mark and was a good second in amateur jockeys' handicap at Haydock (1m6f, good) 17 days ago; should be fine on this drop back in trip and has claims if he can build on that last run. |
4/1 |

8th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
His mark continues to fall and he didn't run badly at Windsor (1m2f) in May when back from an absence; however, he's failed to threaten on his three starts since (1m2f-1m6f) and needs to turn things around. |
14/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
24th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

All five wins from 1m4f to 1m6f; outpaced when fourth of six on reappearance at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May and he couldn't get in a blow over 1m4f last time; will likely need a pace meltdown; first ride under rules for James Hills. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Dual 2m winner last year; two heavy defeats over hurdles before perking up somewhat on return to Flat in January, but absent since; well handicapped on plenty of turf and AW form, so needs a close look, but the last time he raced over a trip this short was February 2024. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Useful on the Flat in his prime but has yet to better fair form over hurdles, weakening into a well-held fifth on 2m2f Kelso handicap debut in this sphere 24 days ago; might have needed that after a break but he's still hard to make a good case for. |

20th Apr 2026 Good 2m 2f 25y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Showed only minor promise in three novice/maiden hurdles (1m7f-2m) last September-November but was useful on the Flat in his prime and may yet transfer more of that ability to this code; wears first-time tongue-tie for handicap hurdle debut; market may guide. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Very useful on the Flat in his prime but has not been firing on all cylinders this year and made a low-key stable/hurdle debut when well-held fourth over C&D (good) 16 days ago; needs to take a big step forward today. |

17th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |

Two wins here including over this trip, but he ran very poorly on his return from four months off at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) a fortnight ago, especially as he proven fresh; visor returns. |
