21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
It was a small field at Ripon (1m, good to firm) in which he returned to form last time, when battling it out with Command The Stars and Noelan Star, and this is much more competitive; however, his two best RPRs have come at York and he's 4lb lower than when second of 14 here (7f, good) in May; could go well at a big price if conditions suit (unproven on slow ground). |

2nd 4 (2) |
27th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Plenty of racing last year and this, and has generally struggled this season; did not appear to see it out in a few runs beyond 7f and Beyond The Bar looks his trainer's best chance. |

2nd 1 (9) |
27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Highly tried last season after winning her maiden; back on track in just her second handicap when scoring in second-time cheekpieces over C&D (good to firm) last month and she was unlucky not to finish closer when seventh of 20 at Glorious Goodwood 19 days later; respected. |
9/2 |

7th 15 (6) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Highly tried last season after winning her maiden; back on track in just her second handicap when prevailing by a length in second-time cheekpieces at Carlisle (6f, good to firm); it could be onwards and upwards from there and she took only a 3lb hit. |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (7) |
9th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Highly tried after her wide-margin maiden win last summer and she has come up short; perhaps stretched by 7f here (good to firm; cheekpieces first time) on her seasonal/handicap debut two weeks ago; dropped 3lb and still has time to dip back into her early promise. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
11-race maiden; good run when second over C&D in January; hasn't run quite as well since, although fair run with today's headgear on for first time over C&D two weeks ago (just behind stable companion Golden Havana); each-way chance. |
6/1 |
|
4th 9 (8) |
19th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Not seen it out a couple of times over 6f on turf latterly; run well a few times over C&D and the handicapper has given him a chance switched from blinkers to a visor; trainer also saddles Golden Havana. |
12/1 |
|
6th 2 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-9, his best run when second to an unexposed rival over 5f at Newcastle AW in January; beaten 26l on his return to turf at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) 13 days ago and has slipped to a career-low mark; doesn't look ready to capitalize. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner who won at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) late last year and scored twice over this trip on turf in the spring, but a 5lb rise seemed to find him out in his hat-trick bid at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) last time; off 99 days since and will need to hit the ground running on Polytrack debut. |
8/1 |

6th 5 (2) |
27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Ended 2025 with a pair of Class 6 wins on AW (7f/6f); his progress has continued back on turf, making all in 6f handicaps at Redcar and Doncaster; another 5lb higher today and also steps up into a Class 4 but he is still more appealing than many. |
5/2 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Appreciated the drop in class back on turf when well supported at Redcar last month (6f, good to firm; made all); up 4lb and this is stronger but he enters the equation. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
3yo maiden who failed to settle when back over 7f most recently; performed encouragingly in last two 6f attempts, making the frame at Newcastle (AW) and Haydock; could go well. |
11/2 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
No threat to winner but made good headway from the rear to finish second at Haydock (6f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) last month; eased in grade here and looks well worth another crack at 7f; good chance. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
13-race maiden; well beaten at Newcastle (6f, AW) last month on his stable debut, but he did run a bit better when sixth of ten in a maiden handicap at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) last week; tongue-tie now added to cheekpieces. |
14/1 |
|
6th 10 (5) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
No wins in 12 starts and he returned after a break with a laboured effort on his stable debut at Newcastle (6f, AW) last month; was a long way behind Long Shot in that race and he needs to bounce back near his best; cheekpieces reapplied. |
20/1 |

2nd 10 (6) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
0-5; better since joining this trainer, twice placed over 1m here (Class 6); run style wouldn't suggest he's the most obvious candidate for 1m2f, but pedigree does offer hope; still open to improvement; isn't discounted. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 11 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Soundly beaten all three 2yo starts (6f-7f) but placed behind Hunterian over C&D (soft) when upped in trip for recent seasonal/stable/handicap debut; still unexposed and will be dangerous if that run brought him on. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 9 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Showed nothing more than glimmers of promise in three novice races for Gary Rutherford last year (6f-7f) but makes seasonal/stable/handicap debut from a basement mark and is worth a glance in the betting. |
