2nd 4 (4) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has won four of his last seven starts and the latest defeat at Chelmsford was no backward step; however, his mark has taken a hit and this 9yo is returning from a lengthy break; fine on all ground. |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Resurgent 8yo who has won three of his last five starts including a game success at Catterick (6f, good) last Saturday; only 2lb higher back on AW and he's a big player again in hat-trick bid. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Multiple winner in previous seasons; 0-11 this year but is proving consistent, close second returned to AW most recently; remains 1lb below last winning mark; in the mix. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of 12 of his 92 starts, the latest success coming at Chelmsford in October off 1lb higher; several good runs to his name this time around and Billy Loughnane replaces a 7lb claimer today; one to take seriously. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Losing run up to 13 and he finished over 4l behind Sonic Si when fifth of seven at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday; 1-1 here but he needs to do better than that latest effort. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Showed career-best form when winning at Lingfield (6f, soft) two starts ago and is also suited by this C&D but could be a shade vulnerable off a mark this high. |
8/1 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Consistent 5yo who came clear with the second when justifying market support last weekend at Lingfield (6f, soft); carries a 5lb penalty and Myla Coppins claimed 7lb on Saturday, so these terms are tougher; still a likely contender and any rain welcomed. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Modest strike-rate in the last 14 months but he is generally consistent and is versatile as regards surfaces; form figures off current mark read 222; could go one better, with Myla Coppins taking off 7lb. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
1-26 but generally consistent; didn't show any obvious improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when third here (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago and likely to be competing for minor honours. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
1-25 but he went close over 7f at Wolverhampton in March and his Bath third last month (5.7f, good to firm) was another sound effort; should remain competitive with first-time cheekpieces added. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Popped up from nowhere when winning in a first-time tongue-tie over C&D (soft) nine days ago; well drawn as it turned out that day and recent history suggests he's no certainty to repeat the effort, back up 4lb and into a better race. |
5/1 |
|
1st 4 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On a long losing run and he went too freely in first-time cheekpieces for his new yard when a below-par fourth of eight in 5f Lingfield handicap 18 days ago; tongue tied now with more required. |
14/1 |
|
4th 7 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All four wins when trained by Philip McBride, the last of which was in September 2024; sold for 6,000gns to join new yard in February; unseated when rearing at the start on stable debut; first-time cheekpieces go on and he's best watched. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed and frustrating maiden for Amanda Perrett but regularly ran well in stronger races than this; promising stable debut at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) last week, keeping on for a close third; one of the likelier types. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 10 (7) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
24-race maiden, absent since three midfield finishes on Lingfield Polytrack (5f-6f) for Amanda Perrett in December; changed hands for 10,000gns in January; makes stable debut from workable mark. |
10/1 |
|
7 (7) |
27th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |

0-18 but down in the weights and ran creditably over C&D in a stronger race two weeks ago; others still appeal more for win purposes. |

6-35 for Stuart Williams but 0-11 on turf and, despite a falling mark, that's the obvious concern on this first start for new connections. |
20/1 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Third, beaten 1.25l by Over Spiced, in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; that represented his best turf result but this race will demand an even bigger effort. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Big chance on his AW form but he has finished out of the placings in all nine turf runs; BHA mark is 15lb lower on turf but he's likely to remain vulnerable. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
5.5f course winner (firm) who arrives on the back of a revived 5f win at Chepstow (good to firm); up 3lb for that but has won several times from higher marks and has to be taken seriously. |
5/2 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Has eight wins on turf but losing run is mounting up; needs to rediscover his form. |
5/1 |
|
7th 10 (3) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Close third off this reduced mark at Brighton (6f, good to firm) last month and he can't be discounted; however, this 8yo has been inconsistent this season and was soundly beaten back at Brighton most recently. |

9st 13lb |
Back on the up following a wind op in May, placed at Bath and over C&D before making all in a small-field handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago; a 4lb rise asks more of her but she should give another good account; stable also run So Smart. |
100/30 |
|
1st 1 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Well suited by undulating tracks and has come back to form since undergoing wind surgery; now 3lb below her last winning mark and Harry Vigors has plenty of experience for 5lb in this company; down in class and it's hard to find any negatives. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
A few near-misses to go with her C&D win and she bounced back last time from a string of poor efforts on her first start since undergoing wind surgery; on a fair mark if she builds on that. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
12-race maiden; track and ground no concern and he was running on well when second over 5.3f here 12 days ago; has been placed over 7f but others may see it out better. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 (7) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-11 but has made the frame in seven of his eight starts in handicap company, including when fourth of 12 in this headgear combination on his return from five months off at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 18 days ago (She Went Whoosh second); drops to this level for the first time and respected. |
11/4 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ten-race maiden who can take a strong hold but he finished well when runner-up over C&D (heavy) last autumn; returns after five months but he's handicapped on his best form and has had only three runs for current yard; needs a close look with hood added. |
