1st 3 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Went close off 9lb higher on handicap debut at Chelmsford (6f, AW) last October but his form has gone the wrong way subsequently and he was well beaten at Haydock last month when wearing this headgear combination. |
10/1 |
|
11th 1 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Promising return to action at Chelmsford in October (6f) and that was off a 6lb higher mark; no progress since but 7f has stretched him on his last two starts and he returns to 6f in a lower grade; big player with cheekpieces added for the first time. |
7/1 |

4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Weakened in the latter stages over 7f last time; fitting of tongue-tie needs to prompt a stronger finishing effort; best form remains at sprint trips. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Made it four out of five in handicaps when prevailing in a big field at Doncaster (7f, good to firm); this lightly raced 4yo is clearly progressive and should be a tough nut to crack. |
5/4 |

1st 5 (15) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won three of his last four, comprising two wins at Leicester (good to soft) and an AW success at Southwell (also 7f) on this month's comeback; big field no bother and he has to be of interest under a 3lb nudge. |
5/1 |

1st 9 (2) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won two Leicester handicaps (7f, good to soft) in the autumn, but got stuck in the mud at Nottingham (1m, heavy) on his final outing; makes his Tapeta debut after 166 days off; watch market. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Very pleasing return from 275-day break at Leicester this month; lacked a change of gear at Newmarket (also 7f) subsequently and returning to 1m looks in his favour; draw hasn't been kind, though. |
15/2 |
|
3rd 2 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
0-9 but consistent last year and may well have made a winning reappearance at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last Saturday but for blowing the start (hasn't tended to be an issue in the past); key player. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 5 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Proved reliable without winning in 2025, signing off with a good third of nine in 1m Nottingham handicap in August; remains low mileage so not out of things on his seasonal return. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Blew the start at Leicester last month when making it 1-18 on turf; however, he won at Southwell (7f, AW) in February and was back on the scoresheet there (7f) last Thursday, and is not ruled out today. |
8/1 |
|
1st 7 (7) |
7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All three of his wins on the AW have been at this track, the most recent in a C&D classified in February; well beaten after missing the break at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago but may bounce back returned to AW. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won three times for Ollie Sangster (5.5f/6f); solid effort when beaten only 2l at Wolverhampton on her stable debut in December but she's not built on that in two starts since; tongue-tie added. |
16/1 |
|
5th 6 (6) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three wins last May-August (5f-6f, including on good/firm) and she's 2lb below her last winning mark; however, she hasn't been at the top of her game on her last five starts, the latest in December. |
12/1 |

10th 2 (1) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Successful once on AW and twice on turf this term; hindered by wide trip returned to this sphere last time; still on highest mark but good jockey booking with first-time cheekpieces also added. |

9st 7lb |
Promising third at Kempton (7f, AW) last March on his second start but has beaten only one rival in three handicaps since; still lightly raced but he needs a transformation at this new trip; cheekpieces added. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Promising start to his career and he's tumbled down the weights, but for good reason; makes stable debut following a long absence and a major turnaround is necessary. |

25th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

0-6 since debut success and has a dismal record in handicaps; chance depends on whether physical tweak (wind surgery since last run) prompts a turnaround. |

2nd Mar 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
This son of Time Test cost 4,000gns as a yearling and is closely related to 1m/1m2f winner Zara's Return (RPR 82); dam French 1m AW winner; likely best watched on debut. |
