27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Drawn widest at Chester last time and was returning from 200 days off there the time before, but few positives can be gleaned; watching brief advised stepping up to 7f for AW debut. |
20/1 |

10th 8 (14) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
His Ascot novice win last September came over 6f and on soft ground; well beaten over 6f here on Wednesday and he has stall 14 to contend with now dropping to 5f for the first time. |

12th 5 (6) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Made all at Ascot (6f, soft) to build on debut effort; subsequently down the field in the Mill Reef and a valuable race on Champions Day but may be capable of progress back down in class; local runner who is interesting on handicap debut. |

3rd 6 (1) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won 2yo novice at York (6f, good) last October on second start; mid-division in Listed race later that month and reappeared with good second on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm); stayed on well last time and this step up to 1m could prompt further improvement; lots to like. |
4/1 |

2nd 1 (7) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Confirmed debut promise when winning at York (6f, good) last October before coming up short in Listed race here three weeks later; personal best needed on her first go in a handicap but she's lightly raced and in good hands. |
5/1 |
|
18 (13) |
31st Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Made a promising start when runner-up at Ascot (6f, soft) last month and she landed the odds with a comfortable success at York (6f, good) three weeks ago; now has her sights raised in this Listed event but she's bred to be smart and needs a close look for in-form yard. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Finished second in a Southwell novice last July on only AW start; has since shown decent form in various company at up to 7f on turf, with both blinkers and cheekpieces tried; sets the standard but he was only third at 8-11 at Redcar last time so probably vulnerable again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed promise in defeat on all four starts last year, finishing fourth of 26 in a sales race at Newmarket (7f, good) in October when last seen; first-time cheekpieces replace the blinkers adopted last time; leading claims if at the top of his game on this reappearance. |

4th Oct 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Fifth of 20 in a sales race on the July course (behind Court Alert) before probably raising his game to finish third in a small-field novice at Ascot (6f, soft); could well improve for 7f and tries blinkers, but others are far more convincing. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Underwent wind surgery not long after winning a Chelmsford novice last September; last of ten off 1lb higher than this on his Polytrack comeback ten days ago and has something to prove in first-time cheekpieces. |
10/1 |
|
8th 4 (6) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Only had to do what he did at Ascot on debut (6f; fourth of five) to open his account over this trip at Chelmsford last time; has undergone wind surgery since (yard 4-11 with horses running for the first time following such a procedure) and he enters handicaps off what looks a fair mark. |
9/2 |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Brother to useful 7f performer Great Acclaim; displayed clear promise when fourth of five in what was probably a good Ascot novice (6f, soft) this month; drawn wide here but can pose a threat if this very different C&D suits. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the third attempt when winning a novice at Wolverhampton (6f) in October on his final start for Ralph Beckett, but he's struggled in three handicaps since joining this stable; others have stronger claims. |
25/1 |
|
7th 8 (6) |
21st May 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
6f AW novice winner last October for Ralph Beckett; a market check is advised but he's been beaten a long way in handicaps this spring on his first two starts for this yard. |
33/1 |
|
12th 1 (15) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Bought for 26,000gns after winning five-runner Wolverhampton novice in October (6f; carried head awkwardly) for Ralph Beckett; well beaten at Ripon on stable debut last month (6f, good to soft) but should come on for the run; poorly drawn. |
33/1 |
