30th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark for 2026 when readily seeing off ten rivals at Ayr (7f, good) in July; well short of that level back at Ayr 13 days ago; disappointed as favourite in one run at Musselburgh. |
8/1 |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has gained five of his nine wins over C&D, the latest in July (good); freshened up a respectable fourth back here eight days later; won't mind what the ground does. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Gained five of his nine wins over C&D, the latest eight days ago (good ground); still on workable mark under 4lb penalty and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Handy sort who bounced back to form with easy wins over this trip at Musselburgh (soft) and Ayr (heavy) this month; only fourth of ten off this mark over C&D (good) ten days ago, but ground conditions today may be more to his liking and he is respected back down in grade. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Suddenly thriving again, racing up with the pace when winning over this trip at Musselburgh and Ayr this month; those successes came on soft/heavy ground but he has plenty of form on good to firm; more of a concern is a further 8lb rise to a career-high mark. |

17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Suited by soft ground; scored twice in 2024 and 2025 but failed to beat a rival on belated 2026 reappearance; best watched unless the market speaks positively. |
40/1 |
|
13th 1 (3) |
2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
The winner of four of his 15 starts, all in sprint handicaps on ground slower than good; unlikely this mark will prove beyond him and he is fresh for an autumn campaign but still likely to come on for this first run following a 298-day absence; had a wind op (his second) prior to this return. |
10/1 |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Best efforts were his three wins on good to soft and soft, two of them over Carlisle's stiff 6f last summer but he managed to get up late on over 5f at Catterick at start of this month (3lb higher today); 7f on heavy did not work out eight days later and he never threatened, after niggled along from some way out, when beaten over 4l at Leicester (5f, soft) yesterday. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Made debut in July and showed ability in novice contests on turf in August, but she was soundly beaten at 18-1 on her handicap debut at Newcastle (7f, AW) a fortnight ago; unraced on slow ground. |
20/1 |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Faces a more realistic task now handicapping at a low level but her last two efforts have come in slowly-run affairs and this opening mark isn't an obvious gift. |

20th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Has a solid record and steadily progressive RPRs; won well at Thirsk (good) on penultimate start, then finished 1l second to Monoceros at Haydock (again over 1m; soft) latest; in the mix. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Likeably consistent and overcame a wide draw with ease at Thirsk 22 days ago (1m, good) to earn this 9lb higher mark; that asks questions of him back in a higher grade, but the chances are he's very progressive; fine on soft ground. |
5/1 |
|
1st 4 (15) |
14th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent dual winner who coped well with the rise in class when pushing a well-handicapped winner all the way at Ayr six days ago (1m, good; goes on all surfaces); not ideally drawn out in 15 but plenty to like otherwise. |

10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Out of the frame in eight completed starts but shaped as though worth a go over this far when fifth of 12 at Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta) last time; a couple of winners have come out of that race and he drops in grade; worth a second look. |
8/1 |

5th 6 (10) |
15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Unplaced in all eight starts; edging down the weights and now tries a new trip with headgear reinstated; not a solid option. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Poor form in seven starts last year; absent since pulled up in a 6f handicap at Catterick in late October; plenty to prove. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won 6f handicaps at Hamilton (soft; 25-1) and Newcastle (AW; 66-1) for Alan Brown in the latter part of 2025; short of that level in two runs for new stable; cheekpieces return having been left off over 7f last week. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 6f scorer in 2025 for Alan Brown but yet to fire this term, only fifth of eight in 6f classified event here on her yard debut in March; lots more required after a break. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (4) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won a 6f classified at Newcastle for Alan Brown in November but has rather lost her form since; sold for 1,400gns last month; stable debut. |
10/1 |
