28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All starts at 5f; fast turf no problem when runner-up at Windsor (latterly promoted to first) in August and he bolted up in Wolverhampton maiden in November having previously gone quite close on handicap debut at Southwell (also AW); underwhelmed on final start of last term but subsequently gelded and he's in the right hands to progress this season. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Showed promise in his first two starts at Windsor (5f, good to firm) during the summer, especially when beaten a neck in a novice in August; not so good at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) last month, but still open to improvement on nursery/AW debut; shortlisted. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Posted sound effort when third at Windsor (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago and may benefit from this drop back in trip but she's not making any progress and others have more appealing profiles. |
12/1 |

3rd 9 (4) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Cracking debut when 250-1 but only beaten 4l in Group 2 Queen Mary (5f) last June hasn't been built on, despite winning 6f course novice (good) next time; edging down the weights, however, and might be finding her level having not been disgraced at Wetherby last month; makes first start at 1m. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Often highly tried at two (made her debut in the Queen Mary) but did manage to win a 6f fillies' novice at Windsor; unplaced in both handicap runs and could probably do with some more weight off her back. |

15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Built on promising debut (6f, good) in August when landing Wolverhampton novice (Tapeta) three weeks later; back in that form when third in course handicap (also 5f) on final start for George Scott in October and sold for 17,000gns five days later; unexposed, particularly at this trip, and impossible to rule out on this stable/seasonal debut. |

Twice held on Polytrack since winning a Wolverhampton novice (5f, Tapeta) last month, including in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) on nursery debut at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago; return to this surface may help; claims. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Record of 0-9 since debut success but she is somewhat threatening to double her tally, having finished second in two of her three outings this term, latest at Bath (5f, firm); not ruled out. |

2nd 4 (9) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Best effort since switched to AW when runner-up on penultimate start; capable of being involved and she gained sole win on turf; however, 0-8 since that debut performance. |

5th 7 (3) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |

Successful debut at Chepstow (5f) last May; that didn't help her handicap mark but she returned to action with a good second of nine over C&D this month to one who'd had a run; back up 1lb; can be involved again. |

Successful in Bath maiden (5.7f) last summer and ran respectably in 5f AW handicap on final 2yo start; however, progress is likely required in this field on reappearance. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Made it third-time lucky in a Bath maiden (5.7f, firm; 4-6) in July, but didn't get home on nursery debut at Newbury (6f, good) the following month; return to this trip may help, but he makes his AW debut after ten weeks off. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up at Windsor (5f, good to firm) in June on second start then comfortably went one better at Bath (5.7f, firm) where he was odds-on; has a progressive profile and could be a contender on nursery debut. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Ex-Haggas filly who was said to have been unsuited by rain-softened ground when well below market expectations last time (taken out at Doncaster over the weekend after the going eased); should do better. |

Didn't really progress for William Haggas after winning a 6f Yarmouth maiden on her second start; late headway into fourth on her stable debut at Wolverhampton last month; better can be expected back up in trip today. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Dual nursery (5f, AW) winner who was outpaced when a little short of room on his turf debut at Bath last month; this step back up to 6f should help. |
11/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Has built up a solid record on AW, latterly 1123 since handicapping and dropped to 5f; good effort on reappearance last time; likely player, assuming he proves as good on turf. |

3rd 1 (5) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |

Progressive 2yo who was involved in tight finishes for all three 5f Tapeta handicaps, winning over C&D and at Wolverhampton before having what may have been a difficult task at the weights at Newcastle in December; can be dangerous off the same mark. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Won his first two nurseries on turf in July (the second in a match) and best subsequent effort when promoted to third over C&D last month; finished last of eight at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) ten days ago, though, and is already due another 3lb drop. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a nursery on his turf/handicap debut at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) in July with first-time visor (retained since) and followed up in a match at Bath (5f, firm) seven days later; has not been in the same form in his three starts since and still to prove he is as effective on AW. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |

Had plausible excuses in Class 5 the last twice, hindered by wide trip back on AW latest; may be better judged on July turf wins that give him a 2-2 record in Class 6; possibilities returned to this level. |

Big prices and well held in three starts over 5f on turf; worth a mark check now making his nursery/AW debut in a first-time tongue-tie. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Some headway in the closing stages on his C&D debut five weeks ago (50-1) but never the slightest threat to the principals; can do better at some point but he'll need a good step forward to win here. |
