30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Won last summer on first two starts (6f, AW) then kept on for third of 18 in nursery at York (7f, good to firm) that worked out nicely; well beaten in Newmarket Group 3 (7f, good) on final 2yo start, which was followed by wind and gelding operations this March; also now has a first-time tongue-tie; needs to resume improvement in a major way. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Bounced back to prevailed narrowly at Newmarket (7f, good) last time, adding to his summer AW win, and the form has received a few boosts since; back up only 2lb; this 3yo is likely to remain competitive. |
10/1 |

1st 6 (11) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
7f AW winner in July who has been below that form in two starts on turf subsequently; did post one of his best efforts when fourth in valuable C&D sales race in October but others look more interesting. |
33/1 |
|
10th 7 (12) |
11th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt when leading close home in a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in July; latest run was better than the distance beaten might indicate; others perhaps better treated all the same. |

6th 2 (10) |
15th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has done a lot of racing in sprints but wasn't beaten for stamina as favourite at Wolverhampton last time (8.6f) when hitting a bit of traffic late on; back on his last winning mark under experienced 5lb claimer Donagh Murphy; one to consider. |
4/1 |
|
4th 5 (8) |
28th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has done most racing in sprints and finished well held the only time he's gone beyond 7f (C&D in July); Polytrack win came from the front and, while Billy Loughnane is a positive booking, stamina would have to be a concern. |
5/1 |
|
6th 14 (8) |
7th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Made the breakthrough in an apprentice handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) before a creditable second over C&D last month, both for today's rider; now 2lb higher but likely to give it another good go; cheekpieces added. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Progressive of late, despite having had plenty of racing, adding to his C&D win in May (off 9lb lower) when going in at Bath last time (off 3lb lower); there's other pace in here, however, and he'll need another career-best effort. |
6/1 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Experienced 3yo who was winning for third time this year when scoring at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May; short-headed at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago by one who was completing a hat-trick; major contender. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 6 (7) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained his sixth success when winning at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May and ran well again at Windsor (6f, good to soft) next time, but failed to beat a rival at Ffos Las ten days ago and needs to bounce back. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
In and out during his light career and unproven on the forecast fast ground but he made it 3-6 when winning at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month and he's since been a good second at Kempton (1m, AW); trainer won this last year and he can be a major player if there are no surface issues. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Defied a penalty to win Tapeta novice (7f) in September and it was a career best when landing Lingfield event (7f, Polytrack) last Tuesday; carries a 6lb penalty but that was just his second handicap and further progress could be on the cards; player. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 (6) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Landed a Ffos Las maiden (7.4f, heavy) and a Newcastle novice (7f, Tapeta) last September; well held in handicaps in his last two starts including on his reappearance at Sandown (7f, good; first start since being gelded) in June; needs to rebound. |

1st Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
She made a promising seasonal/stable debut at Ripon (6f, good) in April but there has been little to celebrate since; down in the weights but has a point to prove. |
16/1 |

6th 1 (4) |
15th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Southwell maiden (5f, Tapeta) for Ed Bethell a year ago, but she has gone backwards from her near miss on stable/seasonal debut at Ripon (6f, good) in April; didn't seem to stay this trip last time; no headgear today. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last year, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) and Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in September; 7lb higher than for that latest success and needs to take a step forward from last month's reappearance at Windsor. |
10/1 |
|
10th 7 (1) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last summer, rounding off his 2yo campaign with wins at Kempton (1m) and Wolverhampton (9.4f); has more to do in this higher grade off a 7lb higher mark but he isn't fully exposed; returns with his trainer in fine form. |

12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Regressed for Ed Dunlop prior to being picked up for 8,000gns in July; C&D debut for his new yard recently was nothing to get excited about. |
16/1 |
|
5th 7 (8) |
25th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ten-race maiden whose best effort came when narrowly denied in a novice at Leicester (5f, good to soft) last October; well beaten over 6f on his final start for Ed Dunlop and now steps back up in trip on his stable debut having been bought for 8,000gns; watch the betting. |
14/1 |

8th 3 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Nine-race maiden; ran respectably in first-time blinkers at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) most recently; possibilities off a reduced mark dropped in class with the headgear retained; sole runner on the card for his Newmarket yard. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

He achieved very little on the Flat and it's been the same story at triple-figure odds on his two hurdle starts. |
200/1 |
|
4th 4 |
26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Lowly rated Flat maiden; soundly beaten on hurdles debut at Cartmel (2m1f, good to soft; fifth of six, 100-1) four weeks ago; on that evidence, rates as a highly unlikely candidate. |
150/1 |

27th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
