27th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
4-15 at Beverley, with the wins all in Class 6; the most recent win was last month (8.4f) but he's taken two backward steps since and most form in the last two years suggests a supporting role. |
16/1 |

11th 11 (7) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Successful four times at Beverley, all in Class 6, most recently on penultimate start; placed in Class 5 at Thirsk latest; could go well but this isn't his ideal grade. |
12/1 |

3rd 6 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Four of his five wins have come at Beverley, the latest nine days ago (8.5f, good to firm); 4lb higher in a stronger race but as the only last-time-out winner in the field he has to come right into the reckoning. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 5lb
|
Remains winless but he shaped well in first-time blinkers for his new yard when second of eight in 8.5f handicap at Beverley last month; can go well again in retained headgear if his stamina holds out over this much longer trip. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Sold for 9,000gns since his sole start (2m) for Micky Hammond; still a maiden and drops back markedly in trip but has possibilities on the pick of his form for William Knight; wears new headgear on debut for Ed Bethell; market may offer further guidance. |
4/1 |

12 (15) |
14th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Mainly consistent but yet to win a race; several decent placed runs from 1m to 1m3.5f this season; goes on any ground; each-way chance. |

2nd 7 (8) |
27th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Has won here twice already this month, taking his course record to 112311; all those races were over the extended 1m, so this race asks a slightly different question but he grabbed control well over 1f out last time, is back in career-best form and highly respected. |
4/1 |
|
1st 8 (10) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Prevailed by half a length last week, taking C&D record to 11231; successful in this race for the last two years and commands respect, even under a 4lb penalty, kept to his ideal scenario. |
4/1 |
|
1st 1 (14) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft ground; overall record of 3-38 but his last two wins have come over C&D and he returned to form with a front-running third here 11 days ago; remains well handicapped off 2lb lower than for his last success and he could make another bold bid. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Infrequent winner but he's on a dangerous mark and has reached the frame at Nottingham (8.3f, good) and Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) in his last two starts; now drops back in trip but he should get a good pace to aim at and is not ruled out. |
14/1 |
|
4th 9 (3) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Has an each-way shout, having shown signs of a revival with placed effort at Nottingham (1m) last Saturday returned to turf; whether he can win is another matter, with his strike-rate still poor. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 9 (4) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Only one win since June 2022 and has beaten just two rivals in his last five starts (either side of wind surgery); mark has bottomed out now and he has a lot to prove; cheekpieces back on. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Dual Newcastle winner who added two turf victories last autumn, all off lower marks; will want a good test over this trip round here and hasn't been at his best on grass lately. |
12/1 |
|
7th 4 (10) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Scored twice (around 1m) at Ayr and Beverley last summer; back in decent nick in 2026, fifth in 8.5f Beverley handicap 22 days ago; ought to be in the shake-up again from an easing mark. |
5/1 |
|
5th 5 (9) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Record is 4-23, the most recent win last September in sole C&D attempt (soft); generally consistent since, respectable fifth at Doncaster (1m2f) most recently; gained other turf success on good ground; solid. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Multiple winner, including C&D, and she's dropped a long way in the weights; latest fourth of 14 over C&D was a welcome return to form and the form is working out well; one to take seriously with Kaiya Fraser back on board. |
4/1 |
|
4th 3 (6) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ten-time turf winner who is well treated on her best form last year, but she's been quiet in three runs this season and latest was over C&D (well-held sixth) last Saturday; one of two runners for yard and she needs to raise her game. |
16/1 |
|
6th 3 (1) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Couple of duck eggs this term leave a doubt over her current form; however, gained one of her five wins in 2025 over this C&D and she holds a good chance off current mark provided a resurgence materialises; runner-up in this race 12 months ago. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win from 12 came in the mud at Ffos Las (1m, heavy) last September; didn't offer much in her first three starts this year, and only a smidgen more when sixth of nine at Kempton (1m; 28-1, beaten 3l) four weeks ago. |
16/1 |
|
6th 8 (9) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won at Ffos Las (1m, heavy) last autumn but she's been well below that form in three runs this year; record is now 1-11 and she needs to turn things around. |
20/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Best form, including sole success, on ground softer than good; perhaps unsuited by AW this year but again seems unlikely to have ideal conditions and removal of usual hood presents another question mark. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His form has deteriorated since his last win last May but he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) nine days ago; has another career-low mark today and is not ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
One win apiece for his previous two yards but he looks far from solid on 2026 form for another new stable; best watched unless the betting suggests a big run is likely; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |
25/1 |
