17th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Grand stable servant who wins in his turn; successful at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in February and has made the frame back on turf on his last two starts; place claims once again. |

4th 1 (5) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Second in the 2024 running of this; nine wins include five on turf, all around this trip on a sound surface; won at Newcastle (AW) in February and it was a fine effort from the widest stall when second of 14 at Nottingham (also 1m2f, good) 11 days ago; big shout. |

2nd 8 (14) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |

Got his head back in front at Newcastle (1m2f) in February; down the field both starts since, although a wide trip didn't help back on turf at Doncaster three weeks ago; hasn't had much luck with the draw again. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
0-18 but has shown ability as when second of nine at Newcastle (1m2f, Tapeta) ten days ago; return to this trip not a problem and he holds each-way claims again. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-17 but he got right back on track when fourth of 11 in 1m Southwell handicap nine days ago, doing best of those held up off a steady pace; he's effective at this longer trip and is one for the shortlist. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (10) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Free-goer who came from the rear for a close third behind Soames Forsyte over C&D last month and may not have been suited by the much more positive tactics when below that form at Wolverhampton (8.6f; ran without usual hood) a few days later; however, he's 0-16 now and has become frustrating. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Blinkered when ending a lengthy losing sequence in good style at Yarmouth nine days ago, drawing clear last 1f; up 6lb but another bold showing is on the cards with headgear retained and good amateur Henry Callan up. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
On a losing run and can get it wrong at the start; well handicapped on 2025 best, however, and he stayed on for fourth at Newcastle 19 days ago; conditions shouldn't be an issue and he commands respect with new blinkers now replacing cheekpieces. |
8/1 |
|
4th 12 (9) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Not as good now and prone to the occasional off-day; still to win over C&D but his record suggests he needs considering off this mark, especially given his two previous runs in cheekpieces both resulted in near-misses. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Got off the mark when winning at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in March and followed up at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) on his next start; however, he's been well held on his last three starts and remains 3lb higher than for his latest success. |
15/2 |

8th 2 (3) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Not seen it out over 1m4f a couple of times since two wins in March, one over C&D; it might just be that his current mark is beyond him but there won't be any excuses tonight. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Came good with 1m2f wins at Newcastle and Doncaster last month but he didn't fire when upped to 1m4f in his hat-trick bid at Lingfield last time; had a wide trip in that race but he needs to kick on again to make a big impact back on Tapeta. |

19th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
His last five wins have come over C&D, the latest in November; recent efforts no more than respectable, though, and remains 4lb above that last successful mark. |
10/1 |
|
7th 1 (3) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
His last five wins have come at Newcastle, but he hasn't been at his best there in last three starts; went close off this mark in November but he needs to get back near that level; all AW wins have been at 1m2f but he has won over this trip on turf. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (8) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Bagged a fifth C&D victory in November and in good nick subsequently, not seen to ideal effect when fourth of 11 back over C&D 25 days ago; a likely player eased 1lb. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
1m2f wins last year at Pontefract (good) in June and Newcastle (AW) in December; pretty reliable and second of 14 at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) on return to turf in March showed again that he should be seriously involved. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 8 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Mostly creditable efforts on Tapeta this winter but the handicapper has been winning the argument lately and he returns to turf off 2lb higher than when successful at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last summer; likely to be on the premises but might be vulnerable for the win. |
9/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
19th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Course regular whose two handicap wins came off slightly lower marks; another solid effort under a typically patient ride when fourth over the extended 1m4f here last Thursday; likely to be on the premises again. |

21st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Having a fine year, winning for the fourth time when scoring at Ripon 13 days ago (1m2f, good); still feasibly weighted but previous 1m4f efforts haven't seen her convince with her stamina. |
5/2 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Three wins on AW at Newcastle (1m2f) since January including a cosy success last Friday; this is tougher under a penalty but she's still lightly raced on turf and was third in a big field at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) on her penultimate run; shortlisted. |
4/1 |
|
1st 11 (8) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Two C&D wins already this year, latterly off 4lb lower, and continues in form, the drop to 1m working against her when she came home nicely at Doncaster five weeks ago; goes on the shortlist. |

9st 5lb |
Placed twice since dropped back to 1m last month, more recently when very close third (just behind The Sweet Escape) at Leicester (1m, good to firm) nine days ago; competes off same mark here; big player if new cheekpieces have any positive effect. |
5/1 |

3rd 1 (10) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |

Without a win since 2024 but he got right back on track when second of ten in 1m Ripon handicap two weeks ago; up 2lb but well in the mix. |
5/1 |

2nd 9 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Last turf win was here (1m2f, good to soft; from 6lb higher) in June 2024; fair third at Wolverhampton (8.5f; 10-1) on penultimate start but took a backward step at Doncaster (1m2f) subsequently; easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

Ten-race maiden; some promise on second start for current yard when sixth over 1m2f at Newcastle last month but well beaten over 1m3f at Southwell since; placed on turf last year. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Placed in two novice/maiden events (1m3f/1m2f) when trained by Tom Ward last year but she struggled once switched to handicaps, and failed to beat a rival here on her stable debut 25 days ago; dropped another 5lb. |
