6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Too headstrong in a clear lead at Southwell (7f) last time, so did fairly well to be beaten only 2l in the end; gained last win off 10lb higher at Newcastle in August 2024; fighting chance provided he settles. |
10/1 |

4th 6 (6) |
23rd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well treated on last year's high points and it wasn't a bad run from off the pace at Chelmsford 12 days ago, given how that race panned out (pulled hard/got behind/found trouble); the cheekpieces are worth persevering with. |
4/1 |

7th 13 (5) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Well suited by York and went close there in June; inconsistent otherwise during a 2025 campaign that has been markedly less productive than 2024; cheekpieces refitted for the first time since 2022; opposed. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He's dropped to a mark fully 15lb lower than when a close fourth over C&D last August; however, this regressive 5yo has struggled to get competitive this year; a first-time visor replaces a tongue-tie. |
7/1 |
|
7th 5 (10) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Should be well handicapped but that has been the case for a while and his losing run stretches back 18 months; attracted support at Yarmouth last month (7f, good) but fared no better; now tried in a tongue-tie. |
12/1 |
|
8th 1 (10) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins in 2024 but he has drawn a blank since; returns to his optimum trip off a reduced mark and this is his first Class 5 handicap for some time; not solid but he has the ability to go well. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ran his best race for new connections when third of 21 in a 0-85 over C&D four weeks ago; mark left unchanged but he does need to prove himself on ground firmer than good. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 16 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hasn't won since 2024 but he's starting to look well handicapped; heavily backed when sixth of 20 behind Lord Roxby and Yes I'm Mali over C&D three weeks ago; bit more needed but he could be building up to something. |
14/1 |
|
6th 6 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Split James's Delight and Elmonjed in top 3yo handicap over C&D (good to soft) in 2024; failed to win in 2025 but he has edged down the weights and his three runs for Paul Midgley have been quite encouraging, faring best of those in the far-side group when sixth of 16 back on turf at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 37 days ago; considered. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Rated 7lb lower than on the AW, but is hard to warm to on his latest efforts; needs the first-time blinkers to make a difference. |
33/1 |
|
10th 9 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
May have needed the run at Kempton 12 days ago but he ended up well beaten; he has a lower turf mark to exploit but is a better horse on AW; others look safer. |
16/1 |
|
10th 5 (1) |
20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has claims on his best form last year but he ended last season with a poor run at Leicester (7f, good) in October and his last win was 21 months ago; others preferred. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
The addition of cheekpieces saw him break his turf duck at Yarmouth in April, digging deep to win by a short head; similar form when third of 14 at Goodwood (7f, good) five weeks ago; he will need a personal best to come out on top this time though. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 11 (10) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Took well to first-time cheekpieces at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) returned to turf with AW reappearance under his belt, taking overall record to 3-13; upped in grade but may have more to offer in the retained headgear; shortlisted. |
9/2 |
|
1st 2 (10) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Both of his wins have been on AW but he does act on turf; strong in the betting when seventh at Newcastle (7f, AW) on his reappearance 25 days ago, albeit beaten only 2l; claims with cheekpieces first time. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Hold-up performer who is thrown in on his 2025 form; yet to get going this time around but he wasn't beaten far at Carlisle 11 days ago and cheekpieces could give him a lift. |
7/1 |
|
5th 5 (10) |
9th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Hold-up performer who is thrown in on his 2025 form; yet to get going this time around, typically blowing the start, but it wouldn't be a bolt from the blue were he to bounce back in this company. |
8/1 |
|
9th 3 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Not one to rely on but he hinted at a revival with fifth of nine over C&D 16 days ago; a three-time C&D scorer so can't be discounted off a reduced mark. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Gained a deserved first win since 2024 in 1m apprentices' handicap at Ascot a week ago, when well on top at the finish; escapes a penalty and is able to race off 2lb lower than last time, so he's very hard to side against. |
10/11 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
7f AW novice winner in 2024 but 0-17 subsequently; in the frame at 7f on his last four starts, though, and he stays 1m; due for a 2lb drop but still considered. |
4/1 |
|
4th 3 (6) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
7f AW novice winner at two; 0-16 in handicaps but yet another sound effort in defeat last time at Newmarket (7f, good); handicapped about right but one of these can come his way. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
No turf win since 2022 but he has won three AW handicaps in the last 14 months; should be well treated but recent efforts haven't been his best; this is a drop in class so not dismissed, even though the return of cheekpieces wouldn't be an obvious plus based on previous usage. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days but it was a fairly close third at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; now 4lb lower after four lesser runs; handicapping case can be made but percentage call is to oppose. |
9/1 |
|
5th 5 (5) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days and has gone off the boil, finishing a remote last behind Physique at Beverley a few weeks ago; hard to recommend off the back of that. |

9st 2lb |
All eight wins have come on the AW and is 0-8 on turf, including when just under 3l behind Bellarchi at Chester (7f, good) ten days ago; 3lb pull not enough to tempt, especially as she has never attempted this far before. |
66/1 |
|
6th 4 (11) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Four handicap wins on the Southwell AW this January-March (7f/6f); ran right up to her best when 3.5l fifth of seven to Circe in 7f Musselburgh Listed race latest but it underlines she needs more at this level; a wide draw won't make it any easier. |
40/1 |

5th 2 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Four handicap wins on the Southwell AW this January-March (7f/6f) and has also shown promise on turf (albeit 0-6 on grass); however, she needs a sizeable step forward if she's to pose a threat in this Listed contest. |

Has won over 1m but better at shorter and this extended trip might prove beyond him; not beaten far over 7.4f on Saturday; Billy Loughnane booked but others appeal more for win purposes. |
12/1 |

5th 8 (2) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Scored three times at 7f/1m on the AW in 2025 but his more recent form is far less encouraging, last of eight in 1m handicap at Nottingham last month; visor goes on the first time here. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Last three wins have been on the AW, the most recent off a 6lb higher mark at Newcastle (7f) in December; below his best there over 1m after becoming upset in the stalls 90 days ago and needs to bounce back returned to turf on his first start since. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |

Game effort to win a 7f handicap at Thirsk on his seasonal and stable debut last month; only fifth back at Thirsk this month but the drop to 6f may have counted against him; not discounted. |

5th 1 (3) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Better than ever when making a winning start for the Michael Dods stable over 7f here (good) a fortnight ago; 6f winner for previous yard last autumn so the return to sprinting shouldn't be an issue; respected off just 2lb higher. |

Three wins last year, at 5.5f and 7f, final start on firm ground at Bath; encouraging yard debut here last month when close fourth over conventional 5f; slightly longer trip here should suit so considered off same mark. |

Just 1-13 on turf but that win came with a strong finish over 7f here (good) last month; held in fifth of 12 at Doncaster last time but that was a respectable effort and this step back up to 1m is no problem; in the mix. |

28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Added to his three AW wins when justifying favouritism over C&D (good) last week; goes back up in grade under a penalty but he was as good as ever last time and he's effective on good to firm; shortlisted. |
