22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D winner on good in June but held off this mark in a Class 3 over 1m1f at Hamilton 11 days ago and this is even harder. |

9st 11lb |
Bounced back from a lesser effort when narrowly beaten in a first-time tongue-tie at Redcar (1m, good) in June before winning at York (1m2f, good) next time; won't mind this drop back in trip and holds claims off this 4lb higher mark. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 90y |
11st 4lb |
Dual AW Flat winner won a C&D juvenile hurdle on debut in this sphere; respectable run in a Grade 1 next time but was poor at Listed level at Naas since; has to return to best. |
14/1 |
|
5th 2 |
22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 7f 110y |
11st 0lb |
Won twice on AW for Sir Mark Prescott (7f/1m); bought for 45,000gns and lived up to his name when scoring on yard debut in Punchestown maiden on New Year's Eve, travelling and jumping well on yielding ground; seemingly exposed at Grade 1 level at Leopardstown early this month but definite claims back down in class. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won Beverley maiden (7.4f, good to firm) in June and has gone close in handicaps on his next three starts (including on good to soft), most recently behind subsequent Cambridgeshire runner-up Indalo in the Racing League at Southwell (1m, AW); this progressive 3yo is firmly in calculations. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 12 (5) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won Beverley maiden in June on his fifth start and has gone close the next twice, most recently beaten a neck in Racing League at Windsor (1m) a fortnight ago; has a 5lb rise to defy but this 3yo was clear of the third last time and is in good hands to continue to progress; on the shortlist. |
7/1 |

3 (12) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won a Beverley maiden over slightly shorter and then went close at Redcar (1m, good to soft) in his second handicap; retains some potential. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Four wins this year and he has found another burst of improvement for the addition of cheekpieces, winning 1m handicaps at Pontefract and Musselburgh either side of a C&D second (behind Arctician); another 3lb higher but should make a bold bid. |
7/2 |
|
3 (7) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
A three-time 1m winner in 2025 who posted another good effort when runner-up in 1m Lingfield handicap 11 days ago; very much one to consider nudged up 1lb. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
3-18; second of nine at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) last month before winning by a nose at Pontefract (1m, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) 17 days ago; looks a likely player returned to AW following a 1lb rise. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner, latterly in March when in first-time cheekpieces, after which he finished last of the four at Wolverhampton (scoped dirty); could be given another chance but he's been off since April. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (3) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Built on the encouragement of his comeback effort when winning in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell (1m, AW) 30 days ago, taking his record on the AW to 2-4; claims following a 3lb rise. |
2/1 |
|
1st 3 (4) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made a winning debut at Newcastle (7f) last March and he got back on track after seven months off when sixth of 11 over C&D last month; not ruled out off a 2lb lower mark with cheekpieces added and few miles still on the clock. |

4th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Regressive gelding who's been as far as 1m2f and runs over this trip for the first time since his 2yo debut for Harry Eustace; happier on the AW than turf but is some way down the pecking order after his Epsom blowout (eased). |
16/1 |
|
9th 1 (8) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
The only impact he made in three turf races (last April-July) came when third on good ground at Chester, which is up with his best AW form; pretty reliable with his minor AW honours this year, so needs considering. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 5 (3) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Back-to-back seconds over C&D and shaped as if still in form when sixth to Joseph over 2f further at Lingfield last time; not out of this; trainer/owner also represented by Forca Timao. |
