4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 1m selling handicap (good to firm) at Thirsk when with George Boughey; has gone close a couple of times for this yard, including here (1m, good) 12 months ago when 3lb higher; below par in both starts this season but not written off. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Went close off this mark over C&D last backend and a good test over this trip is fine; quiet on his turf comeback and only has a selling handicap win to his name but he's quite capable. |
16/1 |

8th 10 (8) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained sole win in July 2024 on final start for previous yard; record of 0-9 for current stable doesn't tell the whole story as he's posted a few second-place finishes that represent peak form; capable of going well. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Cost 600,000gns as a breezer in April 2024; consistent rather than progressive to date and although he wasn't beaten far at Wolverhampton 13 days ago, he didn't look an easy ride. |

4th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Made rather disappointing return from 343-day absence when well-held fourth in 1m Pontefract maiden last month but his three 2yo runs were all promising and he remains unexposed; switches to AW for handicap debut. |
5/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Absent since last October (gelded in interim) but could be a contender if retaining the promise shown on his three 2yo starts (7f/1m, good to firm/good); interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Newcastle regular (four wins) but well held in both visits here; still 4lb above his last winning mark and others make greater appeal. |
14/1 |

8th 14 (7) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Four-time AW winner, the latest at Newcastle (7f) in May, and good second at Chester (7f, good to soft) in June; however, only fifth of ten at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last time and has to leave that run behind if he's to get off the mark on turf at the seventh attempt. |

5th 1 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

All four wins at Newcastle but nothing wrong with latest second at Chester, especially as he missed the break; good chance off 1lb higher. |

In excellent form in April, winning at Wolverhampton (blinkered) and over C&D (visor); could still have more improvement to come but subsequent 145-day break may have checked his momentum. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Gained a first win over C&D last July but well below that level in five subsequent starts, although he suffered a poor run when tenth of 12 in 1m Ripon handicap in June; cheekpieces go on after a break. |
16/1 |

10th 3 (4) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last July; three lesser runs followed and no return to form on his reappearance in April; he could improve for that latest effort but his claims aren't compelling. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Gave willingly to brush off a 5lb penalty at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) 11 days ago; steps up in grade (from 4lb higher) in pursuit of the hat-trick for an in-form trainer; no issue with this track, so obvious claims with Oisin Murphy aboard. |
11/4 |
|
1st 2 (1) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Came from off the pace to collar odds-on favourite and cause 25-1 surprise at Ayr (1m, good to firm) 11 days ago; only to due to go up 4lb for that but takes her chance under a 5lb penalty here and remains well handicapped on older form. |
100/30 |

1st 7 (9) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

All three wins have been on AW (7f/1m); fair second to in-form rival at Musselburgh in May (1m1f, good) but a bit more needed. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Came from the rear to gain his fourth success (all on the AW) when winning at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) two months ago; a 5lb rise still leaves him well treated on his previous form so can't be discounted in his bid to follow up. |
9/2 |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

C&D winner off 8lb higher in December; chased home Split Elevens here last month but not quite so good back here four weeks ago; apprentice takes off a useful 5lb; each-way shout. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
10-47 on AW, with all bar one of those wins coming at Newcastle (7f-1m2f); now sits 3lb below his last winning mark, and Tom Kiely-Marshall's 5lb claim is a bonus, but seems to have lost his way; may strip fitter for 7f course comeback run. |
40/1 |

11 (2) |
19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Nine course wins to his name, mainly in the early months of the year; 50-1 for his C&D return a month ago, when well behind a few of these, and needs a big step forward. |
25/1 |
|
12th 12 (11) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Nine of his ten wins have come at this track (7f-1m2f) but last success was 13 months ago and he finished down the field here in his final two runs last year; looks opposable back from a break. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Got off the mark at Newmarket (1m, good) in June; showed the benefit of wind surgery when showing improved form when beaten a head by an unexposed sort at Newcastle (7f, AW) last month; looks sure to go close. |
11/4 |

9 (5) |
17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Infrequent winner but he is effective on Tapeta and has undergone wind surgery since his latest start; not ruled out. |

9th 8 (7) |
8th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Only one win (14 races) but that 1m handicap in June was at this track; ran respectably next time and rallied into a close fourth of five for slowly run race on latest; needs to find extra but his tongue-tie (worn two and three starts back) is restored and new trip now looks worth a go. |

Only 1-32 and should have run better in a classified here last week as he stays 7f. |

6th 1 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Has modest 1-31 strike-rate but gave good account when third of 13 in 6f handicap here last month and now dips into this basement grade for the first time; fine over 7f; high on the list. |
5/1 |

3rd 5 (6) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent 5yo whose losing run goes back 27 races and he was below par at Wetherby last week, however he was a close second at Ripon (6f, good) prior to that and is effective here; each-way claims if back on song. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Fairly useful on his day but is on a long losing sequence and current mark reflects a general decline in his form; a regular at Newcastle and rarely seen at Wolverhampton. |

19th Feb 2026 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
