21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Handicapper quick to ease off this spring and he turned in his best effort for this yard when fourth behind Sisterandbrother at Doncaster last weekend; inclined to over-race back in cheekpieces there and has to prove he can do it on the AW. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last April but he's 0-9 since and has been well held in four runs this year; now 10lb lower than for his win but he weakened quickly at Nottingham three weeks ago and others are preferred; cheekpieces (tried once last year) are reapplied. |

Has made a bright start for his current yard and made it two wins from his last three runs in 1m4f handicap at Beverley two days ago; also took this in 2024, so he's a player under a 4lb penalty. |

1st 1 (4) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his first win for this stable at Doncaster (1m4f, good) this month and ran well at Southwell (1m3f, AW) six days ago; still fairly treated off this 2lb higher mark and has good claims. |
5/2 |

2nd 7 (5) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Hit traffic when not beaten far over C&D late last month and duly justified favouritism at Doncaster on Saturday; no penalty for that apprentice race win and is shortlisted under the experienced Fletcher Yarham. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Finally opened his account at Southwell in April and he followed it with a solid third of eight there eight days ago; ought to be thereabouts again. |

3rd 3 (8) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
A few near-misses around here before finally off the mark three weeks ago off 6lb lower (boasts a much better record on Tapeta than Polytrack); holds obvious claims under the vastly experienced Simon Walker. |

29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
A three-time winner (including over C&D) in 2025 for Ian Williams; in good nick for his present yard too, fourth of eight in 1m3f Southwell handicap eight days ago; not out of things. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
On the downgrade in recent times for Ian Williams, from whom he was picked up for 7,500gns last month; just a fair debut for his new yard recently and this trip is a bare minimum these days. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (9) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On the downgrade in recent times for Ian Williams, from whom he was picked up for 7,500gns last month, his latest second coming in a messy, small-field affair; decent record here, though, and is one to consider under regular partner Billy Loughnane. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who hasn't won since 2023 and never been this far (tried over 6f-1m2f by his current trainer); one of his better efforts from 6lb out of the weights at Windsor ten days ago, but is 6lb wrong again under Ruby Criscuolo (0-2 this far). |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Winless since October 2023; placed twice on AW in January but it has been a struggle more recently; 6lb out of the handicap and others are safer. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Cheekpieces had a positive effect early in the year and he switches to a first-time hood tonight off the back of a below-par effort at Leicester; should be happier back on the AW under Freddie Robson, who's currently a combined 2-7 under both codes. |
12/1 |

12th 1 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark at the sixth attempt when landing a Chelmsford handicap (1m2f, AW) last month; justified support with that convincing win but he was only fifth of ten in his follow-up bid at Wolverhampton (9.4f); has bit to prove again after that and he's struggled in two previous runs on turf. |
4/1 |
|
5th 1 (7) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Cheekpieces retained and finished off strongly to score at Chelmsford (1m2f; 7-1; with Beachborough Girl third) 25 days ago; 3lb higher, with George Wood taking over in the saddle; obvious chance. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Off for more than a year since narrowly beaten over hurdles on his debut for his new jumps-oriented yard last March; that came after almost a year off, so he can go well fresh; market useful under a jockey who's ridden two winners over hurdles this year. |
6/1 |

2nd 4 |
1st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Non-stayer upped to 2m3f on final start for Sir Mark Todd last May but previously a keeping-on third at Wincanton (1m7f, good) to a good subsequent winner; interesting switched to a handicap for in-form new yard. |
9/2 |

4th 13 |
30th May 2024 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |

Best form over hurdles when third at Wincanton last time (1m7f, good); needs to improve on this first run at further than 2m. |

21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
A lot of years since his trainer saddled a Flat winner and he'll do very well to end the run, back from almost a year off and from 6lb out of the handicap under Venetia Thompson (0-7 under both codes currently). |
100/1 |

7th 8 (3) |
26th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |

Both wins on AW, the latest over three years ago; well held on AW at Southwell when last seen and not hard to look elsewhere. |
