24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Three good runs since the tongue-tie went on, last time finishing third of five at Nottingham (8.5f, good to firm); each-way chance. |
11/2 |

3rd 1 (4) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Serial slow starter who ended a losing run off a 4lb lower mark at Doncaster 11 days ago before bumping into a well-handicapped winner over C&D last Thursday; holds claims, especially if he can get away on terms for a change. |
3/1 |

2nd 2 (5) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Often slowly away, just as he was when winning at Doncaster (1m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) last week having dropped a long way in the weights; has to be respected under a 5lb penalty. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Won races for two previous yards; started for this stable with a good third at Ayr (1m1f) in May but he's struggled since, including dropped to a claimer last time; has a bit to find on these terms even if bouncing back to the Ayr form. |
13/2 |
|
6th 1 (3) |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won races for two previous yards and was a close third on debut for current one (1m1f, good to firm); hasn't kicked on from there, including here two runs back when beating one home over 6f; drops into a claimer but these terms aren't easy. |
8/1 |

7th 1 (8) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Successful for two previous yards and ran creditably at Ayr on debut for current stable; below par in two starts since but likely found 6f too sharp latest; returns to a more suitable distance. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 208y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Fairly useful 1m handicapper who has a particularly good record at Pontefract, winning three times; respectable third back there on latest start; has the ability to play a big role. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 2 (5) |
17th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Fifth of 18 in the Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm) and a chance on that effort; following run perhaps came too soon and last time he had to deal with heavy ground; 3-4 at this track, he's a serious player. |

4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won three times on the Flat when trained by Ed Walker (1m-1m2f) and made all over hurdles at Bangor for this stable in June; however, he was beaten 4l when third of four at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) in July and is unproven over this far on the Flat. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 (2) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Not seen on the Flat since signing off for Ed Walker with narrow success in first-time blinkers at Salisbury (1m2f, good) in October but won a recent handicap hurdle for new connections (no headgear) and is unexposed over this sort of trip in this sphere. |
7/1 |

1st 1 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Fairly useful on the Flat when based with Ed Walker; well beaten on stable/hurdle debut in January but his next two runs were much more encouraging, and there is still hope that more of his Flat ability can be transferred to this discipline. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Well beaten on first two runs this term but returned to form in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when second here (8.4f, soft) 24 days ago; last season's two wins both came on good ground; tongue tie left off today but she is still respected; withdrawn at Musselburgh earlier in the month having got loose beforehand. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Well beaten on first two runs this term but returned to form in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when second at Beverley (8.4f, soft) a fortnight ago; last season's two wins both came on good ground; high on the list. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (11) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Three wins from an extended 7f to 1m for current yard but beaten 18l on both starts this season, including only a fortnight ago, so doesn't obviously arrive in much form; has first-time cheekpieces added to her regular tongue-tie. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Not at his best on soft ground here 24 days ago but he's better than that and this mark is well within range; likely to bounce back with a big run. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 75y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
C&D winner in the past; began this campaign with two solid efforts and he is well treated if bouncing back; more recent efforts not quite so good though and he goes without headgear today; well drawn and handles soft ground so there are positives as well as negatives. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Seven wins include three on turf and it was a first success at 7f when scoring at Newcastle (AW; stays 1m) in December; took a good step forward from his return to turf when a keeping-on fourth at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; respected. |
6/1 |
|
4th 11 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
A three-time 6f/7f scorer in 2025; kept busy and in good form (on the AW) this term until only 16th in 7f York handicap eight days ago; he's the type to bounce back though. |
16/1 |
|
16th 18 (5) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has raced almost exclusively on Newcastle's AW since joining Phil Kirby last autumn, winning three times (6f/7f) and placed on six other occasions, including last four starts; three 6f turf wins earlier in career (including here on good to firm) provide hope that he can continue the good work now back on the grass. |
