28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Not the easiest to predict but came from off the pace for a second career win on his first visit to Wolverhampton in March (7f; 2lb lower); breakthrough win in January was over C&D. |
7/2 |

1st 4 (3) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Only 1-16 on AW, the success admittedly gained in clearcut style at Southwell in January; a possible danger on that form but has been nowhere near it otherwise this year; not a solid option. |
16/1 |

9th 10 (6) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Gained his first success for this yard in fine style over C&D last month but he never featured from off the pace here behind Fools Rush In following a 7lb rise 15 days ago; may be capable of bouncing back. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Things didn't pan out for him when back over 6f here in April (first-time visor; cheekpieces now refitted) but he has a good C&D record, winning once and close up in all three handicaps; has a good run in him. |
10/1 |
|
4th 8 (1) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Went close here (7f) on his penultimate run but he's not easy to predict and was well held when favourite at Thirsk (7f, good) last Friday; needs to step up again after that and all of his three wins have been over 7f; first-time visor. |
15/2 |

7th 8 (4) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Three-time winner and has been shaping as though his turn could be near once more, going down narrowly the last twice at Wolverhampton (7f); can race keenly but if getting some cover from stall 4 he should be on the scene. |

Is 0-9 but he comes here in decent nick, fifth of nine in 6f handicap here 26 days ago; in the mix back up to 7f now. |
11/1 |

5th 9 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Couple of decent efforts under aggressive Harry Vigors rides in 7.2f Wolverhampton handicaps since the cheekpieces went on; first crack at sprinting on his turf debut and is one to consider. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-race maiden who is proving largely consistent; nearly made all in first-time cheekpieces over C&D most recently and that form has a solid look to it; good chance in the retained headgear with Harry Vigors taking off a useful 7lb. |

4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has done most of his AW racing on Wolverhampton Tapeta but he's run his two best races on Kempton Polytrack (7f), going close in February and breaking his duck last month; back up 4lb; a likely contender on course debut. |
7/2 |
|
1st 10 (3) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Consistent maiden who's 3lb lower than when beaten a neck over C&D in February; continued in form since, the last twice for an inexperienced 7lb claimer, and is one to consider. |
5/1 |

6th 15 (9) |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won here in 2023 and she scored twice at Wolverhampton (7f/6f, AW) last June; good third at Wolverhampton in March but not at the same level there on either start since and she needs to raise her game. |
20/1 |
|
5th 5 (2) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Her last four wins have been at this track and latest was off 1lb lower over C&D last June; mixed results in three runs this year but she had traffic issues last time and was placed here (6f) on her penultimate run; in the mix. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has been threatening for his current yard this spring but a couple of expensive defeats latterly; goes back to the visor from blinkers and, while capable off this mark, his strike-rate doesn't inspire. |
5/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Best effort for current stable when close second at Thirsk (7f) in most recent turf attempt; still nicely handicapped, having recorded both wins (6f) off higher marks; commands respect back down in distance. |
100/30 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Course winner over 6f in November when trained by Katie Scott; didn't quite get home when third at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) earlier in the month, and ran well when second of 14 at Thirsk (7f, good) five days ago; may be able to go one better. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ended his 2025 campaign in good form over the extended 7f at Ffos Las, recording an account-opening win prior to a respectable effort; the question is whether he can transfer the ability to AW on reappearance. |
12/1 |

9th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |

His two best efforts have come here, the latest when narrowly getting off the mark over C&D (good) five weeks ago (third has won since); has run well on soft ground and shortlisted up 3lb. |

1st 6 (4) |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Fairly useful on his day but is on a long losing sequence and current mark reflects a general decline in his form; a regular at Newcastle and rarely seen at Wolverhampton. |

6th 6 (2) |
19th Feb 2026 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Losing run stretches back to December 2023; ran okay over C&D in November off a 7lb higher mark but he hasn't built on it since. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark for James Owen at the 14th attempt when leading late on in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton 16 days ago; returning to 7f no problem but a 4lb higher mark in a higher grade does ask more of him. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Plenty of near-misses to go with his only win, which came over 7.2f here off a 7lb higher mark last autumn; latest effort can be ignored but the emphasis will be more on speed, running in a sprint for the first time in a while. |
6/1 |
|
10th 10 (9) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Record of 0-12 for current yard but his form over this C&D includes sole success, which was gained off 9lb higher last October, and an encouraging effort (finished second) on Friday; fighting chance provided he belies recent inconsistency. |

Half-brother to six winners including Sakhee's Return (5.8f-7f including 2yo; RPR 93), Jackpot Royale (7f-1m; 91), Be Royale (6f-8.6f including AW; 79), Queens Royale (7f AW; 75) and Must Be Royale (7f AW; 70); once-raced dam (56) out of 1m Group 3 winner; family has won plenty of races for the yard, but stable only has the occasional winning newcomer; watch market. |
