20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
No turf win since 2022 but he has won three AW handicaps in the last 14 months; should be well treated but recent efforts haven't been his best; this is a drop in class so not dismissed, even though the return of cheekpieces wouldn't be an obvious plus based on previous usage. |
9/1 |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days but it was a fairly close third at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; now 4lb lower after four lesser runs; handicapping case can be made but percentage call is to oppose. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Not won on turf since his 2yo days and has gone off the boil, finishing a remote last behind Physique at Beverley a few weeks ago; hard to recommend off the back of that. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Bounced back to form when second of seven at Salisbury (7f, good) last month; 1lb rise for that still leaves him 1lb below his last winning mark and he ran well in his only previous attempt over this far; shortlisted. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 3 (1) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won off 2lb higher in Class 4 on AW last November; has failed to land a blow in Class 3 races since returned to turf but this drop back in grade may have a positive effect; fairly useful in this sphere as a 2yo. |
8/1 |
|
8th 12 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Previously effective on turf but form dipped returned to this sphere last time and he still hasn't scored on grass since his 2yo days; admittedly on a workable mark provided he rebounds. |

2-6 on turf on the Flat, both wins coming on quick ground at 7f-1m at Ayr; remains 10lb above his last turf win but not beaten far off 2lb higher on latest at Musselburgh (7f, good); conditions to suit here and he could go well. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Ready 7f AW win in January; upped to 1m for the first time at Lingfield in March and produced career-best form, finishing off best behind a winner who was red-hot at the time; absent since but could have more to come at this trip. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 8 (2) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |

Ran out the ready winner of a 7f handicap here in January; beaten favourite in two 7f handicaps since and steps up to 1m on a retrieval mission. |
7/2 |

8th 4 (10) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who won readily at Lingfield (7f) in January; only fourth when favourite at Newcastle (behind Benacre) since but wasn't disgraced considering he failed to settle; may still have more to offer. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
7f AW win for Denis Quinn last season; running well for his new trainer too, most recently finishing a neck second at Epsom (good to firm) last week; runs off the same mark (1lb well in) and he is respected, for all his stamina for 1m has to be conclusively proven. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Close third on stable debut at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) in May and didn't run badly when close eighth of ten (just behind Potomac River) in stronger race than this at Newmarket (7f, good) three weeks ago; no surprise if he features. |
5/1 |
|
8th 6 (7) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Became his new trainer's first runner, having been picked up from Denis Quinn for 17,000gns, when faring well in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Yarmouth three weeks ago (Dapper Guest behind); generally consistent and won't mind the stiffer 7f. |

9st 6lb |
Sole win from 12 starts came in a Ripon novice in 2024 (1m, good); hasn't been the most consistent this season and he's been well beaten on his last two outings; down to a career-low mark but others are preferred. |
20/1 |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Keen-going type who is winless since 2024; not proving the easiest to catch right this season too, beating just one in 1m Carlisle handicap ten days ago. |
14/1 |

13th 10 (6) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Often front-runner who can race freely; sole win from ten starts came in a Ripon novice (1m, good) in August 2024 but his best effort since undergoing wind surgery came when a 1l third of 11 at Nottingham (8.5f, good) last month; below his best in two starts since. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
First win for nearly two years when he picked up a Windsor handicap (6f, good to firm) off 3lb lower in May and his subsequent effort at Chester, when never competitive, was a puzzling one a fortnight ago; same mark but it would not be a big surprise if he bounced back. |
20/1 |

7th 6 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Prevailed at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month, proving suited by the return to turf and belatedly registering a first win since joining Ian Williams; a 3lb rise still leaves him feasibly handicapped on the best of last year's form. |

9st 11lb |
Off the mark at the ninth attempt at Carlisle (7f, soft) last month; soundly beaten at Doncaster (7f, good) since but it's possible he'll be able to bounce back; has run well on Tapeta elsewhere. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Not straightforward but plenty of ability for one plying his trade at Class 5 level; off the mark at the ninth attempt when winning a Carlisle handicap four weeks ago (7f, soft); 2lb rise not beyond him if things pan out favourably once again. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won three times in Ireland for Mick Mulvany, including at Listowel (1m, heavy) last September; low key in five starts for new trainer, slipping 9lb in the weights - now 1lb below that last winning mark; needs revival on AW return (3-9). |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Signed off in Ireland with Listowel win (1m, heavy) last autumn; well held at long odds in four runs (7f-1m2f) for this yard; beginning to fall in the weights but probably best watched unless strong in the market. |

6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Too headstrong in a clear lead at Southwell (7f) last time, so did fairly well to be beaten only 2l in the end; gained last win off 10lb higher at Newcastle in August 2024; fighting chance provided he settles. |
10/1 |

23rd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well treated on last year's high points and it wasn't a bad run from off the pace at Chelmsford 12 days ago, given how that race panned out (pulled hard/got behind/found trouble); the cheekpieces are worth persevering with. |
4/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Well suited by York and went close there in June; inconsistent otherwise during a 2025 campaign that has been markedly less productive than 2024; cheekpieces refitted for the first time since 2022; opposed. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins on turf came on testing ground in France and his best efforts in Britain have been on the AW, including a win at Kempton in October; below par in recent starts and has been dropped another 2lb. |

6th 3 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
His best efforts in Britain have been on AW and he was ideally suited by testing ground when trained in France; none too consistent, either. |
