19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Five wins this year, with first four on AW and latest on turf at Redcar (7f, good) in May; placed twice since that last success but he didn't shine at Doncaster last time and he looks weighted near best off this mark. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Had a good season already and Toby Moore's claim is welcomed when he might be a shade high in the weights now; beaten 2l at Chester last time, just behind King's School whom he beat the time before. |

3rd 4 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Is enjoying a fine season and he racked up a fifth victory at Redcar (7f) in May; posted another very good effort with second of ten in 7f Newcastle handicap 24 days ago so he's a likely player once more. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Seven wins include three on turf and it was a first success at 7f when scoring at Newcastle (AW; stays 1m) in December; took a good step forward from his return to turf when a keeping-on fourth at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; respected. |
6/1 |

4th 11 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
A three-time 6f/7f scorer in 2025; kept busy and in good form (on the AW) this term until only 16th in 7f York handicap eight days ago; he's the type to bounce back though. |
16/1 |
|
16th 18 (5) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has raced almost exclusively on Newcastle's AW since joining Phil Kirby last autumn, winning three times (6f/7f) and placed on six other occasions, including last four starts; three 6f turf wins earlier in career (including here on good to firm) provide hope that he can continue the good work now back on the grass. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Newcastle regular (four wins) but well held in both visits here; still 4lb above his last winning mark and others make greater appeal. |
14/1 |
|
8th 14 (7) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Four-time AW winner, the latest at Newcastle (7f) in May, and good second at Chester (7f, good to soft) in June; however, only fifth of ten at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last time and has to leave that run behind if he's to get off the mark on turf at the seventh attempt. |
33/1 |

5th 1 (8) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
His sole turf win was in 2023 but he was good third at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago and ran to a similar level when runner-up at Southwell (6f, AW) last time; headgear is now removed but he should go well again off unchanged mark. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Handy sort; one of his three wins came over C&D early last year and he has become well handicapped, while he ran his best race since joining Adam Kirby when third of eight at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) on Saturday; should be bang there with a repeat; visor returns. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 2 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
No turf win since July 2023; ran respectably (fifth) on stable debut at Yarmouth (7f, good) in May and has had excuses since, including when stumbling and unseating his rider at the start at Goodwood on Wednesday; 3lb below last winning mark (AW), and with a 5lb claimer booked. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Got the gaps, strong at the finish, when successful over C&D in June (17-2; from this mark - Flying Fletcher fourth); failed to build on that until hinting at a return to form at Doncaster (7f; sixth, 22-1; blindfold off late) latest; one to consider. |
4/1 |
|
6th 8 (13) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Scored at Newcastle (1m) in June but he has failed to reproduce it in three turf outings since and came in last of 11 at Haydock (7f) eight days ago; others are much preferred. |
25/1 |

11th 4 (10) |

Won on turf last April and snapped long losing run at Newcastle (1m, AW) in June; however, well beaten back on turf on his last two starts and he needs to turn things around. |

23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Both AW wins at Newcastle (1m and 7f) but he lost out only narrowly over C&D in March; has had ups and downs since but he came from well back when fourth of ten to Gunfighter over C&D recently; place chance. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Went close over C&D in March and won at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) 13 days later; not at the same level on his three starts since, particularly on turf on last two outings, but the return to Tapeta could prompt a revival. |
7/1 |

7f winner on Newcastle AW in March; back on turf for the first time since last October but he's 8lb lower today and he does act on grass; however, jockey bookings suggest Highfield Viking is the stable preferred. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Wins have been over 6f on turf and 7f on the AW (Newcastle); has been running well for a while and latest effort back at Newcastle was better than it looks. |

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

Record of 2-20 but his last win was over C&D last month and he was only beaten 2l behind Anthropologist here last time; remains feasibly treated on his best form and he has possibilities. |

Gained last five wins on AW but has proved consistent in Scotland since returned to turf; finished 1l second at Ayr (7f) most recently; reasonably solid contender in current form. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 5 (11) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't won on turf for more than three years but he's run plenty of good races this season including when runner-up over C&D (good to firm) in May and close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) in June; hasn't made an impact in last two runs but this drop back in trip is a positive and he's in the mix. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Tough, consistent sort; hasn't won on turf for more than three years but plenty of decent placed runs this term, including when second over 1m here in May (good to firm) and when close third over 6f at Hamilton in June (good to soft); yet to win over 1m. |

3rd 4 (9) |
5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

He needs to improve upon his last few showings and was held in fifth over C&D most recently; however, this two-time course winner is 6lb lower than when second at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) in March and is not written off. |

5th 7 (5) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

10-47 on AW, with all bar one of those wins coming at Newcastle (7f-1m2f); now sits 3lb below his last winning mark, and Tom Kiely-Marshall's 5lb claim is a bonus, but seems to have lost his way; may strip fitter for 7f course comeback run. |
