25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who won for Sean Woods on his belated debut at Thirsk (1m, good) last July; not blatantly well treated on the balance of his form (including 1m2f/1m1f handicaps) but now makes his debut for a top trainer having changed hands for 65,000gns; has to be of strong interest. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Won on debut at Thirsk (1m, good) in July and returned to form when second in Yarmouth novice (1m, good to firm) last month; ran respectably when fourth of nine on handicap debut at Doncaster (1m2f, soft) and this very lightly raced 4yo could have more to offer, but others make greater appeal. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Impressed when winning two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth (7f/1m) just over a year apart; too keen when sixth to Zeus Olympios in 1m Group races at Haydock (led) and Newmarket (held up) in the autumn; has switched from Tom Dascombe to Andrew Balding ahead of reappearance (same owners); also gelded which could help to settle him down; Double Rush's exploits this spring underline the yard's prowess with new recruits and this one has similar potential. |

6th 6 (5) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Unbeaten in two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth just over a year apart, impressing with the way he drew clear late on over 1m in August; up in grade but went off too hard when fading to finish sixth behind Zeus Olympios in Haydock Group 3 (1m, good) three weeks ago; bundles to find but he's the type to run above himself on a track that might favour speed; hood added. |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Unbeaten in two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth just over a year apart, impressing with the way he drew clear late on over 1m on return three weeks ago; definitely more to come but this requires a fairly big chunk of improvement; the ground is almost certain to be slower this time but the same connections' useful half-brother Auld Toon Loon is very much at home on good or softer. |

23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-race maiden who has finished a tailed-off ninth in his four handicaps (6f-9.4f) and all of those runs have been on AW; opposable. |
25/1 |
|
9th 8 (1) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Showed a little promise when with Jane Chapple-Hyam, but rather lost his way and was sold for 3,000gns in October; well beaten on both starts for new yard (gelded after first of them); cheekpieces now tried. |
33/1 |

9th 5 (9) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't progress for Jane Chapple-Hyam and he was a well-beaten 50-1 shot on his stable debut in December (6f); gelded since; market should guide. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Twice tailed off but improved in his other three races, always prominent when off the mark by a neck in ten-runner handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago; wore cheekpieces last four starts; up 4lb today but he found more when challenged last time and there may have been more in the tank. |
5/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has been all or nothing in four starts, two tailed-off runs mixed in with good efforts in a Windsor novice in June and again on handicap debut when third at that track (also 1m, good; 33-1) 16 days ago; some consistency wouldn't go amiss but he finished it off strongly last time and looks interesting going up in trip. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Unexposed 4yo but he's not finished closer than 6l to a winner and was a remote seventh over C&D (good) two weeks ago; dropped another 3lb but he's hard to fancy. |
25/1 |
|
7th 9 (7) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Raced too freely here (1m3.5f) on his handicap debut in October and it was the same story on his return at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft) 36 days ago; may settle better returned to this shorter trip. |
25/1 |

10th 10 (9) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Still unexposed after only four starts but was soundly beaten after racing too freely on handicap debut at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft) in October and this is his first run since. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Struggled in his three qualifying runs (1m2f/1m) and remote with headgear in his two handicaps (1m4f/1m2f), despite starting co-favourite on the Newcastle Tapeta last time; no form claims yet. |
14/1 |
|
13th 10 (10) |
30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Struggled in three qualifying runs (1m2f/1m) and it was the same story on handicap debut at Brighton (1m4f, soft; first-time cheekpieces) 15 days ago; drops back in trip with the visor replacing cheekpieces. |
25/1 |

15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Struggled in his three qualifying runs (1m2f/1m) but he now goes handicapping with headgear added and this unexposed 3yo is a possible improver at this new trip; needs close look in market. |
