3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
First two wins on AW; good start for this yard when winning at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in April but he's beaten a total of one rival in two turf starts since and failed to find much when dropped to 7f on Southwell AW last time (first-time blinkers, retained); has enough to prove at present. |

16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won at Redcar (1m) in April on yard debut but has beaten just one rival in two outings since; cheekpieces are quickly swapped for blinkers; has something to prove all of a sudden but the ability is lurking to take a hand. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has been running well in UAE this year, going close in big-field handicap in February (1m, good) then third of ten last month (1m, dirt); major player if continuing the good work back in Britain. |
3/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Comfortable winner of a Kempton novice (7f, Polytrack) last December, but had a nightmare passage on handicap/turf debut at York (7f, good to firm) in May; returns from 166 days off having been gelded; worth a second look. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
2-2 here (5f/7f), but remains unexposed on the AW after just four outings; not at his best on turf lately, but the return here makes him worth a second look on stable debut (same owners). |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (3) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Reappeared with close third at Redcar in April but hasn't built on it, including last of 15 at Thirsk last weekend; hopes are pinned on a first-time visor having a revitalising effect with Oisin Murphy taking the reins. |
10/1 |

15th 9 (11) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Won four times in 2024; just two runs last year and reappeared this April with close third at Redcar; down to a dangerous mark but he hasn't really shone on his last four starts and has to turn things around. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Maiden winner who is 0-13 in handicaps; has a reduced mark and competitive this term, including over C&D, but others are preferred for win purposes. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 3 (4) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Maiden winner who is 0-12 in handicaps but he's on a reduced mark and ran respectably in a Class 3 at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) two weeks ago; has possibilities if he can find something extra and he won't mind what the weather does. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Returned to form to make all at York (1m, good) in June and backed that up with another good effort at Ripon (1m, good) 24 days ago, finishing a close-up third of seven; runs off the same mark today and could go well over this slightly longer trip. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 1 (6) |
18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to form to make all at 28-1 at York (1m, good) three weeks ago in a reapplied tongue-tie (retained); strong claims up 3lb if he can back up that latest performance. |
11/4 |
|
1st 9 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Record at Redcar comprises his two wins for previous yard and best effort for new stable; York form comprises poor efforts in this race last year and in latest outing; something to prove. |

29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Four-time AW winner (1m/1m2f) but he's struggled since returning for this stable in January (refused to race on one occasion), albeit he did have a wide trip last time; has dropped to a career-low mark but has a bit to prove. |
12/1 |
|
12th 2 (6) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time winner on Polytrack (1m/1m2f), but yet to click since returning for this yard in January, refusing to race on one occasion; has dropped a long way in the weights, but risky. |
25/1 |
|
6th 3 (1) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
AW wins at 1m and 1m2f and he's 0-8 on turf; refused to race on second run back from an absence and, following his fading fifth at Redcar (1m2f) recently, a further drop in the weights could be in order; at least this is a drop in grade, though. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D winner on good in June but held off this mark in a Class 3 over 1m1f at Hamilton 11 days ago and this is even harder. |
28/1 |
|
5th 8 (6) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Bounced back from a lesser effort when narrowly beaten in a first-time tongue-tie at Redcar (1m, good) in June before winning at York (1m2f, good) next time; won't mind this drop back in trip and holds claims off this 4lb higher mark. |
9/1 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Appeared to be found wanting for stamina over C&D two runs back but that was a warm handicap and he's since gone down narrowly in a Class 3 over 1m at Redcar (good; new tongue-tie), where he wasn't stopping; races up with the pace and firmly in the reckoning. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Two wins at Newcastle (1m, AW) this year, including on his latest start last month; 2lb out of the handicap today and he's 0-13 on turf, but has been placed a few times on grass and is not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just 2-33 but both wins have come here, the latest over C&D last month; found to be lame when down the field two days later and 7f looked too sharp when third here three weeks ago; he's one to consider now back up in trip. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 7 (6) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Too strong for his rivals in a Class 6 over a mile here last month; reportedly finished lame when disappointing (13-8f) behind Golden Strike here four weeks ago; revised 3lb higher mark has now kicked in. |

Good and bad in six runs for this yard, failing to build on a decent run at Newcastle when seventh of eight at Doncaster last time. |
8/1 |
|
7th 2 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Good and bad in five runs for this yard, but wasn't beaten far the last time at Newcastle (1m) and on the evidence of that run this far is worth exploring. |
