18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
C&D win last October was a convincing one and he is only 2lb higher today; solid third at Wolverhampton when last seen in January; still has potential after just nine starts. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough with a smooth win at Southwell (7f) in October but only sixth of 13 on return visit in November; has a bit to prove now but he's still lightly raced and is feasibly treated on his penultimate run. |
6/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

0-6 but runner-up three times, including when beaten half a length at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) six days ago; that proved his stamina and a major player from the same mark. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won at Musselburgh (7f, good) last August and also effective on Tapeta; he may have needed his sole run this year (well beaten at Catterick in April) but his profile is very up and down and claims aren't compelling. |
9/1 |

10th 4 (3) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Inconsistent last year but won at Musselburgh (7f, good) in August on his third handicap start and wasn't beaten far in fifth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) when last seen; remains lightly raced and could be a contender. |
10/1 |
|
2 (8) |
18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Raised his game when readily seeing off seven rivals in a 7f handicap at Musselburgh in August; short of that level in two runs since and needs to bounce back quickly. |

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 |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

Debut 7f AW winner who hasn't had many goes in handicaps and has been shaping of late as though this trip could suit; each-way claims. |
10/1 |
|
4 (3) |
18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made a winning debut in a Southwell novice (7f) one year ago; unplaced in four starts this year and although his latest fifth at Southwell wasn't too bad (form worked out), he will need more to win here. |
8/1 |
|
1 (5) |
6th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Southwell (7f) in sole 2yo start; regressive RPRs this term; chance of turnaround depends on how well he responds to physical tweak (gelded since last run) and first-time hood. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
0-11 but she has performed with credit in each of her four 6f runs since undergoing wind surgery last November; close third off this mark at Hamilton last week; drops to 5f for the first time, with cheekpieces enlisted; each-way shout. |
14/1 |

3rd 5 (1) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Ex-Hugo Palmer; ten-race maiden; has finished fourth over 6f on three of her four runs this term (good/good to firm/AW), latest a fillies' handicap at Newcastle. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
19th May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Consistent maiden who'll find this easier than the handicaps she's contested previously; had plenty of chances now but is fine on Tapeta and is one to consider for a yard also responsible for Perfect Price. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Below best at the end of last season and also well held on 7f Catterick reappearance, taking her record to 0-13; a subsequent wind operation needs to have had a positive effect. |
16/1 |
|
11th 6 (9) |
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. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Fairly consistent sort; ran up to her best when runner-up here (6f) 11 days ago; first-time hood replaces visor and good chance that stepping back up in trip can eke out further improvement. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
1-17, her sole success coming in 2024 when trained by Darryll Holland; has been running well this year and looks sure to be thereabouts. |
7/2 |

6th 1 (3) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Just a nursery win for another yard to her name and expensive to follow this year, getting turned over as favourite three times; consistent enough but been nudged up the weights in defeat and is having just a second try at 5f. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Sole success came over C&D (good to firm) in April, but he isn't very consistent and ran particularly poorly at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last time; has questions to answer. |
14/1 |
|
8th 6 (2) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Beat 13 rivals to win at Redcar (7f, good to firm) last month on his second start of the season; failed to back that up when sixth there (7f, good) last time and this is his first crack at 6f, but he's not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Built on an encouraging AW reappearance when gaining a breakthrough win in 14-runner C&D handicap (good to firm; Mayo County third) 17 days ago; they were quite well strung out in behind (over 4l back to the fourth) so a 3lb rise looks manageable. |

Won handicaps at Chepstow (6f, good) and Lingfield (7f, AW) before a disappointing run at Chelmsford in his hat-trick bid 16 days ago; drawn widest and others appeal more. |
8/1 |
|
9 (11) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Has been in good form since cheekpieces went on, winning last two races, over 6f at Chepstow and last time by 0.5l over 7f at Lingfield; up 12lb (5lb rise for last win); contender. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark for James Owen at the 14th attempt when leading late on in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton 16 days ago; returning to 7f no problem but a 4lb higher mark in a higher grade does ask more of him. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Plenty of near-misses to go with his only win, which came over 7.2f here off a 7lb higher mark last autumn; latest effort can be ignored but the emphasis will be more on speed, running in a sprint for the first time in a while. |
6/1 |
|
10th 10 (9) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Record of 0-12 for current yard but his form over this C&D includes sole success, which was gained off 9lb higher last October, and an encouraging effort (finished second) on Friday; fighting chance provided he belies recent inconsistency. |

6th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Led close home off today's mark here (7f, AW) in December but was below that form on all three AW starts since and is not yet proven on turf; others have more obvious claims. |
11/1 |
|
5th 4 (1) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark with a last-gasp success in a 0-60 at Lingfield in December (7f); two lesser efforts have followed, including C&D, and he looks up against it once more. |
14/1 |
|
11 (10) |
18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Yet to build on his promising debut second (7f, Polytrack); neither handicap run suggests he is the answer here. |
