5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Made all at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) in April on second stable start; respectable efforts when fifth on his next two outings but he needs something extra today and is unproven on slow ground. |
40/1 |
|
5th 9 (5) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Suited by good/firmer; has quickly found his form this season for new yard and ran creditably in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m) last Saturday when attempting to follow up his Beverley success (7.5f); may do better still. |
9/1 |
|
5th 14 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who was having only his second start for this yard when clinging on over the extended 7f at Beverley (good to firm) nine days ago; only raised 3lb but this is a step up from that Class 4 and his draw isn't ideal for one who usually races close to the pace. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Three-time 7f/1m winner in 2025; good C&D runner-up in April but beat only one in 1m Thirsk handicap two weeks ago; needs to bounce back. |
16/1 |
|
12th 10 (10) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Had excuses for the fizzling out of his season in 2025 but he'd been a ready winner of his sole C&D start, last May, and later won off this mark in August; appreciated the return to good to firm ground when only narrowly failing to get up at Beverley (about 7f) last month; on the premises. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has failed to show his form in last four appearances but ground softer than good wasn't ideal on seasonal debut latest; 2lb below last winning mark and holds a fighting chance provided he rebounds. |

12th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Handy sort who has mainly run well since the autumn, including a win at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in January and a good third of ten on last month's Beverley return (7f, good to firm); shouldn't be far away. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 7 (4) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has won over middle distances, including on turf, but seems to need shorter nowadays and made all over 1m at Southwell (AW) when last seen; could make a bold bid on this track provided he again goes from the front; stable going very well (3-5 with big LSP) this month; respected. |
7/2 |
|
1st 6 (9) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Two wins over further last summer; has run some good races over 1m at Kempton since September but he is edging up the weights and needs another step forward to win. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Ex-Irish; not a regular winner, but ran a sound race when 2.5l fourth over C&D earlier this month (good); only a pound higher than when winning at Newmarket last autumn (7f, good to soft); place chance. |
7/1 |
|
17th 9 (20) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo whose form for new stable features a success at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) last autumn and creditable fourth-place finishes in last two outings (7.5f/1m); again has frame possibilities. |
10/1 |
|
4th 8 (7) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo whose came good at the second attempt for Roger Fell in 7f Newmarket handicap (good to soft) last backend; has returned with respectable efforts on AW and turf in recent months and now only 1lb above the mark he defied at Newmarket; cheekpieces are refitted for the first time in Britain. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Gained last year's two wins over 7f on good ground in August and came second in a 15-runner race next time; made a respectable return to action one month ago and enters each-way calculations. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained last year's two wins in August but has recorded his other two successes (2023/2024) in the month of April; drawn against the inner rail and could be a danger, provided he's in top form on seasonal debut; market support would heighten interest. |
7/1 |
|
6th 3 (4) |
4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

9st 4lb |
Gained sole turf success in 2021 and it's two years since last AW win; 0-5 for current stable but he could strip fitter for his Beverley reappearance a fortnight ago. |
12/1 |

6th 11 (7) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Gained sole turf success in 2021 and it's two years since last AW win; 0-4 for current stable and lacks recent match practice having been absent since November; probably best watched unless the market suggests otherwise. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Has done well over 1m for new connections, finding plenty for two wins on sand at Newcastle in late 2025; given a break after and two turf runs since, at Beverley and when fourth at Ayr ten days ago, suggest he isn't just an AW pony; can go well. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Rejuvenated on AW late last year, winning two in a row at Newcastle (1m); it's possible he'll improve for last month's outing at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm; seventh of ten), which was his first of the year, but he needs to prove he can transfer his AW resurgence back to turf. |
16/1 |
|
7th 5 (2) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Proved suited by the switch to AW towards the end of his 2025 campaign and nearly completed a 1m hat-trick on final outing; chance depends on whether he can keep up the good form returned to turf; only 1-12 in this sphere and 10lb higher than last attempt. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won a 1m selling handicap (good to firm) at Thirsk when with George Boughey; has gone close a couple of times for this yard, including here (1m, good) 12 months ago when 3lb higher; below par in both starts this season but not written off. |
20/1 |

9th 5 (10) |
19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Went close off this mark over C&D last backend and a good test over this trip is fine; quiet on his turf comeback and only has a selling handicap win to his name but he's quite capable. |
16/1 |
|
8th 10 (8) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained sole win in July 2024 on final start for previous yard; record of 0-9 for current stable doesn't tell the whole story as he's posted a few second-place finishes that represent peak form; capable of going well. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Generally performed with great credit last season, including a 6f Hamilton win in May off the same mark as today; never involved in either start this year but his stable's good recent form provides some hope. |
14/1 |
|
13th 1 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Generally performed with great credit last season, winning a 6f handicap at Hamilton last May off 2lb lower and ending his campaign with a second of nine at Newmarket; never in contention at Beverley on his return to action 16 days ago (7.4f, good to firm) and likely best watched for a yard having a quiet year. |
16/1 |

9th 3 (11) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Campaigned mostly over sprint trips and gained his Beverley win at 5f (also effective at 6f); close second at Newmarket when last seen but doesn't appear to be crying out for this step back up in distance. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
High in weights when first handicapping, following a Beverley novice win (about 7f) as 2yo, but was down 10lb from her opening mark when a never-nearer sixth at Catterick (6f, good) last week on second run for yard; this stiff test looks sure to suit and she has a good run in her. |
14/1 |
|
6th 3 (7) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won Beverley novice (about 7f) as a 2yo and ran well over 7f on this track subsequently; well held in all three handicaps, though, including on yard debut back at Beverley 18 days ago; trip query dropped to 6f and might need another run or two. |
16/1 |
|
10th 9 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Lightly raced 4yo whose solid record in novice events, including 2yo success over C&D, has not been transferred to two handicaps; sold out of Ed Bethell's yard for £6,000 since last run; return to this scenario may have positive effect on stable/seasonal debut. |
