8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Below best at the end of last season and she's 0-12; wears a first-time hood for this return, having worn blinkers then cheekpieces on final two runs last term; on a handy mark on last season's best efforts (including over C&D) and she's not discounted. |
14/1 |

6 (2) |
18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
11-race maiden; started the season in good form but last two runs have been well short of her best; cheekpieces tried after one go in blinkers; handles Tapeta and well drawn to attack but there are risks attached. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Failed to win in seven runs in novice/maiden company and her form nosedived at Southwell 11 days ago; this should be more suitable though and she's not dismissed. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Well held on AW debut for Andrew Balding last November but consistent on turf for current yard in 2025, finishing third in four of five starts in novices over 7f/1m; likely to be on the premises again. |
9/1 |
|
6 (7) |
16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Has had several chances since her debut last November but she's been generally progressive and was a clear third behind a 1-8 shot at Redcar (7f, good) 17 days ago; this is not nearly so tough and she sets a fair standard. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Turf winner who would have doubled her tally had she not been disqualified at Salisbury in August (1m); stayed on well for a solid second on the Chelmsford AW last time and this track could suit her better. |
3/1 |
|
7 (2) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Returned from a 282-day absence to win at Ffos Las (1m, good) in August and she was first past the post at Salisbury 16 days later, only to be demoted to second; didn't run badly dropped to 7f at Thirsk last month but more will be needed if she is to take this. |
9/2 |
|
3 (10) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won in spite of racing freely on her seasonal return in August (1m, good); first past the post at Salisbury 17 days ago but subsequently demoted after interfering with the second horse; another small rise in the weights shouldn't prevent a big run. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two AW wins at 7f and she ran respectably over that trip in turf handicaps late last summer but was too far below her best in November and on her reappearance last month to make much appeal today. |
14/1 |
|
14th 1 (8) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two 7f wins on Tapeta last year including a dominant display in a C&D handicap in November; flopped here in her final run in 2025 but she's had a break since and it wouldn't be a surprise if she found more progress as a 4yo; needs a close look on her return. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ex-Richard Fahey; won a Hamilton maiden on debut last season (6f, good to firm); has been mainly disappointing since, including on both starts for this yard (pulled up over hurdles on first occasion); plenty to prove. |
33/1 |
|
6 (1) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a 6f maiden at Hamilton on his 2yo debut but he struggled in five further runs for Richard Fahey; 66-1 when pulled up on his hurdle/stable debut at Cartmel three weeks ago; plenty to prove. |
33/1 |
|
5 |
25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Regressed in five races after making a winning debut over 6f for Richard Fahey and was sold on for 2,600gns; by no means an assured stayer over hurdles; tries a hood. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins divided between AW and turf; ideally positioned through the race when narrowly scoring at Kempton (7f) but this consistent 4yo has clear claims. |
7/2 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won on stable debut at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in December and back near that level when 1l fourth there (7f) ten days ago; also effective over this C&D and could have a big part to play under regular rider Harry Vigors. |
5/2 |

4th 2 (4) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Low-mileage son of Golden Horn who got off the mark at Thirsk (7f) in September; resumed from seven months off with a good third of 13 in another 7f handicap there 27 days ago; could do better still back up in trip with a hood fitted and rates a player. |
9/2 |

3rd 13 (6) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Lost his action and weakened at Catterick when last seen 199 days ago; prior to that he had comfortably seen off nine rivals in a C&D handicap (soft) in September; only had seven starts and there should be more to come. |

9st 3lb

Sole success came over C&D from 4lb higher last August when trained by Stella Barclay, but regressive in the meantime including in three starts since returning for this yard last month; best watched. |
14/1 |
|
12th 13 (3) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
One win for previous yard; two duck eggs this season for new stable leave a big doubt over his current form; best watched unless the market suggests a resurgence is likely. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Came good for Stella Barclay with last-gasp win at Carlisle (7f, good) in August but signed off for that yard with big soft-ground defeat the following month; no immediate encouragement on stable debut a fortnight ago. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Still a maiden but she got right back on track when second of five in 7f handicap here ten days ago; she can go well again off the same mark. |
10/1 |
|
3 (6) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Eight-race maiden; went close over C&D last month but she failed to back it up on slow turf at Thirsk 19 days ago; 4lb higher mark has now kicked in but this isn't competitive. |
7/2 |
|
11 (2) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Seven-race maiden but she has threatened on occasions, including when a close second at Newcastle on Thursday (7f); best turf run came here (1m) but on good to firm; rain would be a query. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Eight-race maiden who has dropped 11lb in the weights since introduced to handicapping; attracted market support when a creditable fourth to Irish Dancer at Catterick (5f, good) last week; return to 6f should suit; dangerous to dismiss. |
15/2 |

4th 3 (1) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has dropped down the weights but she's finished unplaced this spring in her first four handicaps and needs something extra. |
8/1 |
|
11th 9 (3) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Low-mileage filly who was campaigned at 7f/1m until a running-on sixth of 12 in 5f Catterick handicap ten days ago; interesting for her in-form stable now back up to 6f. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Two soft-ground wins (7.4f/1m) in 2024, but he's drawn a blank since and has struggled on the Flat and over hurdles in his last four starts; has plenty to prove and yard also runs Evelyn's Phoenix. |
16/1 |

8th 7 (4) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Two soft-ground wins (7.4f/1m) in 2024 but he's drawn a blank since and has been well held on the Flat and over hurdles in his last three starts; bit to prove and he needs a big turnaround back in this sphere; cheekpieces reapplied. |
16/1 |
|
4th 8 |
4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Two low-grade Flat wins in 2024 (7.5f-1m); well beaten on recent Market Rasen hurdles debut (2m, juvenile maiden; 150-1); connections waste no time by dropping him into a claimer; difficult to identify a positive angle. |
