17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner; many good efforts since back from a short break in June 2025, four wins including one at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) in September; closely involved on Kempton AW since and entitled to have a say. |
10/1 |

4th 5 (8) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Back up close to a career-high mark at the age of nine having sprung a surprise on turf off 2lb lower last time; lacks consistency now but merits respect as a five-time C&D winner. |
7/1 |

1st 6 (10) |
16th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Most of his runs on turf have been on soft ground and he's won three times on that surface; runner-up at Lingfield (6f) in June but below his best in both starts since (soft turf/AW); could return to some form and run well. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a hat-trick on the AW early last year, the final leg off 2lb lower; back in form lately, most recently in a race that didn't pan out his way, but needs a bit more back on turf from the lowest stall (likely to be dropped in again). |
10/1 |

4th 7 (3) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Awarded Lingfield handicap in early 2025 before going 2-2 over this C&D; just four starts since the latest of those wins last March and firmly back on track when edged out at Chelmsford one month ago; 2lb nudge can't be quibbled with and he needs considering. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (1) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Notched a hat-trick in the first three months of last year, latterly off a 1lb lower mark; not as good now but remains consistent enough and unlikely to be far away. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Last run was underwhelming but she was performing well prior to that in 5f/6f handicaps; on the downside, she's drawn quite wide on her first visit to this track. |
14/1 |

7th 1 (10) |
16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Notched a third AW victory of 2026 when prevailing at Lingfield (5f) in April and she posted another good effort when third of ten in 5f Wolverhampton handicap 18 days ago; ought to be in the shake-up once more. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Often leads but can be slowly away; took a steep rise in the weights for two 5f wins in early spring but she absorbed it and added another win, from the fast-finishing Ancient State, on Lingfield AW in April; another solid effort back on turf there 11 days ago; strong showing likely back at 5f on AW. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won twice on AW (6f) for Robert Cowell last autumn but he's finished down the field in most of his runs for new yard this season; has dropped a long way in the weights but losing run is up to 15 and others are preferred. |
10/1 |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won twice on AW (6f) for Robert Cowell last autumn and he is thrown in on that form; mostly not at his best since joining this stable but now drops into class 6 company for just the second time. |
12/1 |

6th 10 (6) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Won twice on AW (6f) for Robert Cowell last autumn and he is thrown in on that form; not at his best for new yard this year and hopes rest on the return to sprinting reviving his fortunes. |

15th Oct 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Won four times for Richard Hughes (three on turf) at 5.5f-7f; promising start for this yard at Navan (5f, good) in June but failed to beat a single rival home at Navan (6f) and Gowran (7f) since. |

12th 8 (14) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Won four for Richard Hughes (three on turf) at 5.5f-7f; promising start for this yard at Navan in June but never figured when failing to beat a rival back at Navan on latest; needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |
|
15th 1 (11) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 180y |
10st 2lb |
Three wins last year, at 5.5f and 7f, final start on firm ground at Bath; encouraging yard debut here last month when close fourth over conventional 5f; slightly longer trip here should suit so considered off same mark. |
8/1 |
