20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Both wins have been on AW over 6f, latest at Wolverhampton last month on his second start for this stable; flopped when favourite on his return to turf at Bath (5.5f, good) a week later and may be worth another chance back on AW. |

17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won at Southwell for Mick Appleby in December and he made it 2-4 in cheekpieces with a dominant display at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last week; record of 0-7 on turf but he ran well in big-field handicap at York last summer and he's a major player if he can transfer his progress back to this sphere; respected under a penalty. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Took well to first-time cheekpieces when opening his account in December Southwell handicap; spoiled the follow-up attempt by racing too freely and subsequently left Mick Appleby for 30,000gns; had excuses when fair fifth on stable debut at Chelmsford (also 6f; Supreme King third, Lazzar behind) a fortnight ago and might emerge best of that trio this time. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Consistent spell on Tapeta over the winter and continued the good work back on turf when close second of six at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; he's never won above a mark of 75, though. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
C&D win last summer came off 18lb lower and he returns to turf 10lb higher than when last running on grass, thanks to a consistent spell on Tapeta; will need something close to a career-best to take this and he's not improving at his age. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Landed his fourth AW race when scoring narrowly at Kempton (6f) in March; has dipped below that winning mark after three lesser efforts and blinkers go on for his eighth race on turf (0-7). |
7/1 |

10th 4 (5) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has broadly done well on AW since December, winning four times; needs to prove he can transfer the pick of that form back to turf; 0-6 in this sphere and is 5lb higher than last attempt. |

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. |

2nd 4 (1) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

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. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
C&D winner two years ago who tends to stick to the AW these days; back up in the weights following a hat-trick in the winter and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort when last seen five weeks ago. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 (1) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-8 here but completed a 6f hat-trick when scoring at Kempton (Polytrack; also won on Tapeta) in February; repeatedly denied a run when unlucky fifth next time and latest third (Hunky Dory fifth) was a solid effort a fortnight ago; considered. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Unlucky fifth, getting no sort of run, in the Kempton event won by Lazzar when bidding for a 6f four-timer; treated as still in form and still well handicapped (mark is unchanged); remains of interest at this level. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Down in weights and step back in the right direction when second of nine at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; has handicapping scope if able to build on that. |
10/1 |

2nd 9 (10) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |

Dropping down the weights but with some justification; likely to come good again at some stage but others appeal more today. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Last of seven in Lingfield Class 2 (6f, Polytrack) on reappearance and just mid-division when back on turf at Doncaster (7f) 12 days ago; that took his record to 0-9 since debut win but this represents his easiest task for a while; due a further 2lb drop but still needs a second look. |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice over 6f at Wolverhampton (AW) when trained by Marco Botti and ran well when runner-up in a 0-90 there on her stable debut last month; however, she's yet to build on that in three starts since and is yet to prove as effective on turf. |

15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |

Couldn't build on good 6f Wolverhampton record when beaten 10l over that C&D on Friday; has some form here too but she's not easy to recommend after that. |
