18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Three 6f wins on AW this year and he only narrowly failed to improve on a very modest turf strike-rate (now 1-35) when just touched off at Hamilton (5f, good) this month; no serious impact at Catterick (7f) since but ran well in headgear in Ireland and cheekpieces are now refitted. |

8th 1 (5) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Three 6f AW wins this year for new yard and short-headed at Hamilton (5f, good) eight days ago when back on turf; there can be optimism that he will be fine back up to 7f and he's a strong contender. |
7/2 |

2nd 1 (4) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Has been on a roll at Southwell in recent weeks and didn't run badly in defeat at Wolverhampton; carries a penalty for the cosy win five days ago but a greater concern would be his record on grass, which reads 1-33. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Yet to win a handicap, but was having his second start since wind surgery when second of ten over C&D last month; races off the same mark and considered. |

2nd 3 (9) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

6f AW maiden winner as a 2yo; 0-8 in handicaps and showed no benefit for wind surgery at Pontefract. |
10/1 |

9th 10 (12) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
6f AW maiden winner as a 2yo; 0-7 in handicaps last year but he dropped 13lb in the weights as a result; had a wind op soon after latest run in December; drops to 5f for the first time since his debut; wide draw. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Doesn't find winning easy (2-28) but is consistent for the level; third in four of his last five AW starts, including when keeping on behind Mount Ruapehu at Southwell (6f; 14-1) 23 days ago; wide draw isn't ideal for turf return; stablemate of Indy's Angel. |
10/1 |

3rd 9 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Remains a maiden after 13 starts but she was a respectable fourth at Southwell (6f, AW) last month and should be fine back up to 7f and back on turf; on a career-low mark and holds each-way claims. |
13/2 |

4th 7 (8) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

12-race maiden who was sixth of nine here 23 days ago after a break; she wouldn't be the obvious answer. |

27th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Losing run goes back nearly a year but he might have won over C&D last July but for being hampered and is on a handy mark now; a recent Tapeta run (hood left off, now refitted) suggests a good run is imminent. |
6/1 |
|
5th 6 (10) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Can miss the break and/or pull hard; has performed okay in two runs after a break and each-way claims should he give himself a chance. |
4/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Bit unlucky not to win more than once last year and made a fair comeback at Southwell recently; can fluff the start and/or pull hard, however, and it's easy to argue he's more effective over 5f now. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Just about stays this far, but his best form including both wins (one here) has come over 6f; drawn widest. |
8/1 |
|
6th 8 (5) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Doubled his tally when reeling in the long-time leader at Wolverhampton a month ago (6f); that was a classified race but his mark was left untouched, so only 2lb higher than for his previous win; has form here. |
13/2 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Successful at Kempton in January; below par at Southwell last month but he bounced back to form when beaten a neck into second over C&D two weeks ago; should go well. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Last run was too bad to be true and had made a positive start for this yard, and he's closely matched with Dr Ali; possibilities. |
10/1 |
|
12th 15 (17) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
On a long losing sequence but he has started life well for John Mackie on last two outings, fourth of 12 in 5f Catterick handicap ten days ago; very much one to consider off the same mark with cheekpieces refitted. |
10/1 |
|
4th 10 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Finished second in this race in 2023 (soft) and 2024 (heavy); good second at Wolverhampton on his stable debut (6f) two weeks ago; well drawn back on turf but his 18 turf runs have seen him steer clear of anything faster than good to soft. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has won three 6f events on AW since August, one here; last run at Pontefract forgiven as he was drawn wide but he was also below par here the time before when behind Mount Ruapehu. |
8/1 |
|
13th 11 (13) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Prominent racer who has won three 6f events on AW since August; not at his best at Southwell last month and he has a wide stall to overcome returned to 5f. |
10/1 |

8th 1 (5) |
14th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Enthusiastic front-runner with three 6f wins to his name on AW, including here last October; ran his best race for some time when scoring at Chelmsford three weeks ago but even that will need bettering if he is to overcome a 4lb rise. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Third in a 5f maiden here on debut but it's been a quiet start in handicaps (here) and now goes in cheekpieces. |
8/1 |
|
8th 5 (3) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Third of nine in the C&D maiden on this card 12 months ago; hasn't built on it in three subsequent runs but she isn't fully exposed and a bigger effort is likely to be forthcoming at some point soon. |
13/2 |
|
5 (2) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Half-sister to C&D winners Hiya Maite and Jeans Maite; shaped well over C&D on her debut in April and although she hasn't built on it in two turf runs since, she could take a step forward now handicapping at a modest level; betting to guide. |

9th 8 (2) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
He went desperately close at Newcastle (6f) in December off a 6lb higher mark; well beaten since and unseated his rider having reared as the stalls opened (not for the first time) at Southwell 18 days ago; capable but too risky for comfort. |
33/1 |

5 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Record of 1-26; shown nothing in two runs after wind surgery and too risky to contemplate. |
