Eight C&D wins, the most recent off current mark in August; not in the same form since and was behind a few of today's rivals last time. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has struggled on his last three starts but always a force to be reckoned with at this track having registered an eighth win here on his last visit in August (1m, good; ridden by Oliver Carmichael); only 2lb higher. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Took a big step forward on just his second go in handicaps when runner-up at Salisbury (1m) 16 days ago, hampered last 1f and awarded race; up 2lb but he remains unexposed at this trip; player. |
7/2 |

29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinting pedigree but he's raced only at about 7f, keeping on at just the one pace when sixth of 12 on handicap debut at Doncaster (good to soft; first start since gelded) in July; might prefer quicker ground but he moves up to 1m with something to find. |
9/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts (7f/7.3f) and improvement is needed on handicap debut; however, he's been gelded since his last run last month which could help him tap into the considerable potential in his pedigree. |

6th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |

4th 6 |
12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
7f winner on heavy ground for Ed Walker, his only win in 11 runs for that yard; joined this one for 7,500gns and finished last in a 1m Class 5 handicap at Chelmsford a month ago; not bred for hurdles and might not stay. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Usually ridden patiently; step back in right direction when keeping-on fifth at Kempton (7f, AW) this month, but his three turf wins in 2025 were gained over 1m and he'll probably need a strong pace to aim at over this trip. |
10/1 |
|
5th 9 (8) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Most wins come later in the year and is high in the weights (13lb higher than when last successful on the AW) after three turf victories last summer; not been at his best in two runs back. |
20/1 |
|
6th 3 (1) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won four Class 6 handicaps (7f-1m) in 2025, including on good to firm and heavy ground; back on last winning mark but he's been out of sorts in last four runs and needs a major revival back on turf; cheekpieces removed. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Saw off 14 rivals when narrowly winning over C&D last month (Class 6); also went close in a Class 6 at Leicester this month but either side of that he was unplaced in Class 5 events; others preferred for the win. |
4/1 |
|
4th 8 (2) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Battled well for narrow win at Nottingham (8.3f, good) last month and probably bettered that performance when very close second at Leicester (1m, good to firm) nine days ago; respected in current form. |
13/2 |

2nd 5 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Finally opened his account at Nottingham (1m) in April but failed to back it up when sixth at Ripon (1m) two weeks ago; needs to get back on track. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Better than ever when readily seeing off 11 rivals at Southwell (7f) under Gina Mangan in January; never involved over 1m at Doncaster next time but shaped as if still in form when fourth back at Southwell (7f) 23 days ago. |
6/1 |

Better than ever when readily seeing off 11 rivals over C&D in January and it was over 1m when finishing midfield in a 22-runner handicap at Doncaster; considered. |

Loves it here and beat nine rivals with ease on her latest visit in September (1m, heavy); a 5lb rise could have been worse and she stays this far. |

Two 1m wins last year, on the AW and good to firm (handles soft); off since December but could have a big run in her with Ashley Lewis taking off 5lb. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Bath win in April (1m, good to firm) came off a 1lb higher mark; placed three times last month but she ran poorly in a 7f handicap at Leicester three weeks ago; others are more appealing. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Consistent maiden who signed off for Tom Clover with a solid fifth of eight in 1m Kempton handicap last August; subsequently changed hands for 4,600gns and she needs to hit the ground running for her new yard here. |

Maiden who isn't particularly solid on her 6f-1m form for current stable; bred to stay further but failed to convince with her stamina over middle distances for previous yard. |

8th 5 (1) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

17th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ten-race maiden; finished second at Bath last September but that was 1m on heavy ground; too much to prove dropped in trip. |
