14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Won Beverley maiden (soft; debut) and Chester nursery (good to soft) last term; again scored on first start of the year when taking AW handicap (also 5f) in March; possibly found 6f a stretch again when disappointing at Chester last Wednesday but this looks too warm even if she does get back to her best. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Off the mark on second start (5f, good to firm) and ran respectably on handicap debut when beaten 3l at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to soft; not clear run) in August; gelded before sharing second (5f, AW) on reappearance in March and again didn't have the cleanest shot when fourth at Bath one month later; not ruled out. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Returned from seven months off (gelded during his absence) with a dead-heat for second at Wolverhampton last month (6f); his win came on good to firm and this extended 5f should suit; not discounted. |

2nd 5 (9) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Pulled hard in three runs after winning a small-field maiden last summer, over 6f on his final two runs, and remains relatively unexposed; perhaps the gelding operation will settle him down and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Enjoyed an excellent winter on the AW, scoring three times at 6f, and comes here on the back of a good third of ten in 6f Lingfield handicap 19 days ago when not enjoying the smoothest of passages; can play a prominent role again back on turf. |

3rd 6 (11) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
He has won three of his last four starts (good second on the other occasion) yet has only gone up 8lb; finished with a flourish to win over C&D on Good Friday and he is a leading contender despite his wide draw. |
4/1 |

1st 5 (8) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made it 2-2 in a visor when winning narrowly at Kempton (6f) and kept on well for second over 5f at Wolverhampton despite running in just a tongue-tie (as here); 1lb higher but Jack Callan now takes over with his 5lb claim; considered. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Sprang a 40-1 C&D surprise last week on first start since leaving Archie Watson, finishing fast to lead late on; now 4lb higher but he hasn't had much racing and there may be better still to come. |
13/2 |

1st 11 (9) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Pretty consistent across her six starts for Archie Watson (including on turf), winning a 5f AW novice last November; however, improvement is needed on stable debut, having changed hands for 26,000gns last month. |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Trainer won with four of his last eight runners but the switch from cheekpieces to first-time blinkers will need to help this C&D winner, who's finished held in two handicaps this year having been gelded. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins as a 2yo, including C&D; slightly disappointing on her seasonal and handicap debut at Wolverhampton last month but it's possible the return to turf will see her in a better light. |
8/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Made all the running at Thirsk last summer and had the toe to make most in Listed company next time (both 5f); soft ground may not have been optimal when last seen six months ago and she's drawn to attack on her handicap/AW debut; player. |
6/1 |
|
6 (6) |
19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Made it 2-3 when winning Thirsk novice (5f, good to firm) last month before close Listed fifth at Newbury (5f, good) seven days later, when she made the running; unraced on slow ground; her trainer is in tremendous form and she might not be far away. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All starts at 5f; no impact in two Listed races after winning Ripon fillies' maiden (good) for Archie Watson last term; sights lowered for this yard but form of three handicap runs on Wolverhampton's AW suggest this extra furlong will need to give her quite the boost. |
66/1 |

6th 5 (1) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |

Won a maiden for Archie Watson at Ripon (5f, good) last June; her two runs over C&D for her current trainer this year suggest she needs to come down the weights before finding another opening. |

9st 7lb |
Won the novice event on this card (good to firm) last year; made the frame in handicaps in last two outings, latest at Bath (5f, firm); possibilities back here, provided she takes well to first-time headgear. |

3rd 6 (4) |
27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Steadily back to form in AW contests this year, creditable fourth latest; possibly on her way to a new peak and looks interesting back on turf; won in this sphere last spring. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Three 5f wins around a left-hand turn on AW; clobbered by the handicapper for his two wins for Stuart Williams over the winter and he has come up short in better company since; sold for 8,000gns last month; vulnerable back on turf on his stable debut. |

7th 1 (2) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
He's seen plenty of action and was with his third trainer when bagging Newmarket handicap (6f, good) last Friday; return to this career-high mark demands more. |
11/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two 6f wins on turf and AW for previous trainers and he ran right up to his best when a close fourth on Lingfield AW for this one in April; has had some excuses before and since and, while he's on the exposed side now, a good run can't be ruled out back on turf. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Closely matched with Alasrae on C&D form from Good Friday and his effort there can be marked up given he was poorly drawn; can be given a pass for Bath last time (hampered) and he has yet to run a poor race over C&D; more exposed than some but still commands respect. |
20/1 |
