18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Generally very consistent over 7f last season but disappointed over that trip on recent seasonal debut and may find 6f here a bit sharp. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Scored over C&D last July and in good form after until finishing only eighth in 7f Redcar handicap on his final run; this reliable sort can't be discounted despite a six-month absence. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Beaten favourite in similar event over C&D last time and is still on career-high mark but remains in a very consistent vein of form that now reads 23313323 since April; solid. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Won twice at Hamilton in September (6f, good to soft and soft); not so good twice since and likely vulnerable at this level. |
16/1 |

20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Back to 6f when winning successive Hamilton handicaps in September (good to soft/soft) and it was a belated return to 5f when below par last time; however, this is a tougher grade than she's accustomed to. |
8/1 |

8th 9 (8) |
29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Benefited from the return to 6f of late, winning both starts here (good to soft and soft); flying high but has a penalty to carry in a better race back over 5f for the first time since her debut; still not ruled out. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-16 on turf but he went mighty close at Redcar (good) in October; narrow winner at Southwell (also 7f, AW) on next start in December and it was a good effort when third to Wrydcroft over latter C&D last time; that did come after another two-month break but he's a player if backing it up 17 days on. |
8/1 |

3rd 6 (7) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Record on the AW last year read 1161 including two wins over C&D; not at his best when behind two of these back here in February, but more than capable of making an impact if bouncing back. |
4/1 |
|
6th 5 (1) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back from nearly two months off with a second C&D success in 14-runner handicap in December, getting up late on; up 3lb but very much one to consider after another break. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Front-runner who was admirably consistent in the second half of last year and reappeared with a good second at Newcastle in March; however, after a lesser run at Thirsk he was beaten a long way at Redcar only 16 days ago, and needs to leave that latest performance miles behind. |
25/1 |
|
12th 6 (12) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Front-runner; came second at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March and ran well until weakening into fifth at Thirsk (1m, good; refitted cheekpieces) last month but, off current mark and over this trip, his chance is probably reliant on an uncontested lead. |
10/1 |
|
6 (6) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Just two wins from 31 starts but this front-runner often runs well and he was a close second on his reappearance at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March; had to work hard early to lead from wide draw at Thirsk (1m, good) last time so that fifth of 13 was a creditable performance; he's one to consider. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Fourth on all four appearances at Brighton; 29 races overall, with both his wins on Southwell AW last March/September; thrown in on that form but he was out of form this winter and on recent return to turf after five months off; others have more pressing claims. |
20/1 |
|
10th 15 (7) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins have been gained at Southwell (6f/7f) but he was out of sorts there in his final three runs last year; on lower mark back on turf but he's 0-8 in this sphere and has something to prove after five months off. |
20/1 |
|
9 (4) |
29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Respectable fourth over 6f at Brighton last time but shaped as if he ideally needs a return to 7f, which is his usual trip; still has a poor strike-rate. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won on turf as a 2yo for Clive Cox; dual AW winner (1m/7f) for this yard in January but poor last time when the race reportedly came too soon; has been freshened up and might bounce back. |
5/1 |

7th 1 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in January, when 12lb lower; followed up at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta); went close from this mark when fourth back there (8.5f) on his penultimate start; respectable second at Lingfield latest but if back in the form of that penultimate effort, he'd have strong claims. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two Tapeta wins in January, over 1m and 7f, and better form when a close fourth (off this mark) at Wolverhampton 11 days ago (8.6f); the second and third there have both won since and he is a solid contender back down into a Class 6. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Two wins in Germany; sixth is the best he's managed in seven starts since coming to Britain but he did catch the eye a bit on his penultimate outing and is worth a betting check back from a three-month break. |

Has won three of his 34 races on turf, the latest off this mark at Musselburgh last August (7f, good); should come on for his reappearance run and a possible. |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
He lacks a recent run and was below par more often than not last year; however, he reappears on a handy mark and, with his stable going well, it will be no surprise if this C&D winner is in the mix. |

2 (7) |
17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

9st 12lb |
Justified favouritism, by half a length, in C&D contest last week for a first win since 2024; incurs 5lb penalty but Donagh Murphy claims that amount; remains well treated on historical data anyway; respected, assuming he takes to first-time cheekpieces. |

Commenced his 2026 campaign with an encouraging effort (close third) over C&D last week and remains well handicapped on peak form, which includes two wins off higher marks in 2024; enters calculations. |
