1st 6 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Five-race maiden who has not finished closer than 7l to a winner but she ran into lots of trouble when 6-5 favourite for a Wolverhampton handicap (1m4f) last week; still has potential for top yard and she needs a close look back on turf. |
3/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
8th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No better than sixth in her three qualifying runs (6f-1m) and she didn't take a step forward when fourth of seven on her handicap debut over this C&D (first-time hood) 32 days ago; hood is quickly discarded and she may yet to better. |

2nd 3 (5) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Brother to a fairly useful 1m4f winner; finished seventh in three qualifying runs last year and he returned after a gelding operation with a well-held fourth on handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in April; needs to find more but it's still early days and he's a possible improver on his step up to this trip. |
4/1 |

4th 8 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Seventh on his debut at Salisbury (1m, heavy) and twice on the AW (also over 1m) in novice events last year; gelded since last seen 141 days ago and now steps up in trip for his handicap debut; market should be informative. |
9/1 |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

90,000gns yearling; seventh foal; brother to 1m4f winner Genesius (RPR 84) and half-brother to winners Quest For Fun (6f/7f; 96) and Brielle (1m; 85); dam placed 1m 2yo/8.5f (69), half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 1 winner Parish Hall; one to watch on debut. |

3rd 1 (9) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't live up to market expectations in two juvenile runs and was tailed off on his reappearance here (1m2f, good to soft) in March; been gelded since and now goes handicapping but he needs a transformation on this step up to 1m4f. |
7/1 |
|
8th 1 (7) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten just over 5l, over 1m, in both 2yo runs; has something to find on bare form and may be more interesting in handicaps soon but is bred to improve for the new trip, being by Sea The Stars out of a 1m2f winner. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Unplaced in five starts over 7f-1m4f but did show some improvement over a similar trip at Thirsk (good) last time, when racing prominently; 2lb drop should help, while headgear is now tried; player. |
100/30 |

4th 5 (11) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Struggled in three maidens in Ireland last year and same story when upped to 1m3f on handicap/stable debut at Southwell (AW; 20-1) last month; one of two runners for yard and she needs a transformation back on turf. |
20/1 |

5th 7 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Soundly beaten in trio of Irish maidens at up to 8.3f on turf last year for Kevin Coleman; probably best watched unless the betting speaks positively. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Has finished tailed off in four of his five runs including in a Beverley handicap (1m2f, good to firm) last month; has lots to prove back up in trip and he's 4lb out of the weights; cheekpieces added. |

7th 12 (10) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Only eighth of 11 but showed improvement on RPRs at Kempton (1m4f) on handicap/seasonal debut, while shaping as if this return to shorter will suit; could go well. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Regressive ten-race maiden who has been well held in five handicaps at up to 1m4f; continues to drop down the weights but she was always in rear at Newcastle two weeks ago and others are preferred. |
16/1 |
|
6th 4 (3) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Exposed, regressive maiden who again finished weakly on her first crack at 1m4f two months ago; handicapper giving her every chance but she's vulnerable to improvers and not obviously fancied. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (5) |
9th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Her limitations have been exposed over shorter trips, most recently sixth of nine on her seasonal return here two weeks ago (9.5f); by Dream Ahead but she is related to several strong stayers so this new, longer trip could unlock something extra. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the fifth attempt when making all in a Kempton handicap (1m4f, AW; cheekpieces added) two weeks ago; up 6lb but that was a dominant display and she's open to more progress on this switch to turf; key player. |
15/8 |

1st 2 (3) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ties in with two of tonight's rivals as she finished alongside Wedonttellthetruth in the C&D event won by Cospicua when making handicap/seasonal debut; may build on that effort and show progress, provided she takes well to first-time headgear; shortlisted. |
5/1 |
|
6th 4 (2) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
She's raced three times and has shown ability at up to 1m; her pedigree doesn't scream 1m4f performer but she's nevertheless one to consider now up in trip on handicap debut for her in-form, respected stable. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Low-level maiden who reappeared with a heavy defeat at Newcastle (1m2f, AW; 33-1) last month; that took her record to 0-6 and she's not finished close than 6l to a winner so far; opposable from out of the weights. |
