10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Course scorer but she came in a never-dangerous seventh of 12 on her yard debut in 7f handicap here 18 days ago; more is required with cheekpieces removed today. |
20/1 |

7th 4 (4) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Two wins when trained by Karl Burke (1m/1m4f); posted her best effort for Darryll Holland when fourth of seven (beaten 1l) here over 1m3f last month but she was well beaten at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) 16 days ago; drops down markedly in trip for her stable debut. |
18/1 |

10th 5 (8) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual Tapeta winner (1m/1m4f), who gave it a good shot when a close fourth at Southwell (1m3f) four weeks ago; usually races prominently and has possibilities if she can find something extra with cheekpieces added. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Keen-going front-runner who landed a second Epsom victory (also a C&D winner) when showing the right attitude to get back up late last month; won back-to-back races last summer and no surprise to see history repeat itself upped a fair 2lb. |
5/1 |

1st 6 (5) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Placed off 3lb higher at Lingfield (1m2f, good) on seasonal/stable debut in May but not quite in same form on any of three subsequent outings, the last twice here (1m2f/8.5f); needs to up his game. |
11/2 |
|
5th 4 (9) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Front-runner; latest win was under Mason Paetel here (1m2f) early last July for Ed Dunlop; 4lb lower today but that's after he went off the boil and there's been only a partial revival for new yard this year, finishing sixth of nine here last time in the race he won last year; the last time he raced over a trip this short was May 2025. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Inconsistent since going close at Lingfield in June; won off current mark in C&D event just over a year ago, the final leg of a hat-trick, and has a good chance provided he's back to that form. |
8/1 |
|
8 (8) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Completed an AW hat-trick around this time last year (including a win over C&D) and only just beaten off this mark here in June; held in three starts since (behind Spirit Of Leros last time) and vulnerable to an improver, this being his 16th start |
12/1 |
|
7 (9) |
5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won three consecutive AW handicaps around this time last year but form since has been patchy and he was tailed off at Southwell last time; probably best watched this time. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Novice win in 2024 remains his sole win in 18 Flat races and he has performed poorly in his two previous visits here; well-held third over hurdles last week; not overly appealing. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Just 1-18 on the Flat but showed fair form when placed twice over 1m2f this spring; should have a future over hurdles but he made a low-key start in this sphere over C&D (good; 20-1) last month; stablemate of Chemistry. |
16/1 |
|
5th 5 |
17th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Just 1-18 on the Flat but showed fair form when placed twice over 1m2f this spring; can be competitive at this level if he takes well to hurdling at the first attempt. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual winner at around 1m early in the year, latterly off 1lb lower, who's been this far only once (C&D last backend), when well held; offered more last time but stamina remains a worry. |
12/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Returned from a wind operation in December with a C&D success in February; scored over 1m at Southwell in April too when just 2lb lower; not so good on his next three starts but this is an ease in grade and he can't be discounted. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Belatedly opened his account in Chelmsford contest (1m2f) in August; couple of subsequent defeats confirm his limitations and take strike-rate to just 1-23; not the percentage call. |
14/1 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Off the mark at the 21st attempt in an amateur riders' race at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) last month, but only fifth of nine behind Royal Pleasure at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) 15 days ago; these conditions may suit him better having been placed in one go over this C&D. |
7/1 |
|
5 (9) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the 21st attempt when readily seeing off six rivals in an amateurs' race at Chelmsford 13 days ago; up 3lb but comes here at the top of his game. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Had a prolonged consistent spell until showing a dip in his form this spring/summer; well treated if getting back to his peak but others are preferred on recent evidence. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Capable of the odd howler but he opened his account in Southwell handicap (1m4f, Tapeta) in April and similar form when third in an amateur riders' race back there three weeks later; wasn't at his best in another amateur riders' race last time but he's recovered from blips before. |
10/1 |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Finally opened his account at Southwell in April and he followed it with a solid third of eight there eight days ago; ought to be thereabouts again. |
7/1 |

3rd 3 (8) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
A few near-misses around here before finally off the mark three weeks ago off 6lb lower (boasts a much better record on Tapeta than Polytrack); holds obvious claims under the vastly experienced Simon Walker. |

Not straightforward but he won at Lingfield (1m2f, good) last month and backed it up with a good second of four over C&D three weeks ago; should remain competitive. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Polytrack winner for Sir Mark Prescott in January; two good runs to start off his time with Joseph Parr and he took a step forward when seeing off seven rivals at Lingfield (1m2f, good) ten days ago; this is tougher under a penalty but he did well to overcome a slow start last time and he's still unexposed on turf; respected. |

0-13 but has been placed on his last two runs; a visor replaces cheekpieces on this step up in trip and Oisin Murphy rides for the first time; plenty of positives and should go close. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
A maiden after 12 runs and not yet proven over this fair but gave good account when third at Hamilton (8.3f, good to soft) last month and enters calculations. |
