8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins at 2m, including three on soft going, latterly at Catterick in October; went back-to-back at Newcastle (AW) at the start of the year and fourth at Ripon (2m, good) on latest outing was close to his best; same mark, so needs to find extra, but he can't be ruled out. |

4th 2 (6) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Out-and-out stayer who won twice at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) at the start of the year but the handicapper has been winning the argument since; it remains to be seen whether a return to turf makes any difference in that regard. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Out-and-out stayer who won twice at Newcastle (2m, Tapeta) at the start of the year, but he looks high enough in the weights now and makes a belated Polytrack debut. |

29th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Possible front-runner; high marks for consistency this year and managed a win at Newcastle in March; Toby Moore got a good tune out of him here the following month; sound claims. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
In good form since returning from seven months off in January including a win over C&D last month and close third at Southwell (1m6f) 13 days ago; ties in with Analogical on that latest form and he's respected back in trip. |

4th 8 (8) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
10yo whose easily most successful season was 2025, with four wins; the latest was at this track (2m) in December and he's held his form, including over C&D, so has each-way claims once again. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner whose most recent success came at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) off this mark in December; beaten 2l when fourth of seven there nine days ago, despite failing to settle, and there's no reason to suggest he won't go well. |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent veteran who made the frame on his last six appearances and is now back on same mark as for C&D win in December; likely to be on the premises. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
Nine-race maiden; started off for Mike Sowersby with three good runs in the autumn (all 2m, Tapeta) but form has dipped recently and he's out of the weights in this higher-grade race; needs help from the new cheeekpieces. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 14 (9) |
18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Six-race maiden; has shown improvement in 2m handicaps at Newcastle (finished third) and Southwell (close second) since joining new yard and switched to AW; turn may be near. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 6 (4) |
23rd Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Low-level form in his four runs for previous yard and they went very steady when he was 4l third of five on stable debut at Newcastle (2m) four weeks ago; questionable what he achieved there. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
A nine-time Flat winner over 1m6f-2m, he made a pleasing hurdles debut when third of five finishers (with stablemate Alex The Great 27l back) in a Hereford maiden (2m, good) 15 days ago; steps up in trip and holds place claims. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 6 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Hurdles debutant who is a nine-time AW winner at 1m6f/2m, most recently in March; one of the better contenders in terms of achievements but an unconvincing turf record leaves him with something to prove. |
11/2 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 24y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Got back on the scoresheet at Lingfield (2m, AW) last month and he ran to a similar level when fourth at Wolverhampton (1m6f) 11 days ago; on lower mark back on turf but he's struggled in his six runs in this sphere including three 2m handicaps; risks attached. |
