28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Sole start at 5f came at this track and it was his best effort too, when second of nine in a maiden (good) in August; last two runs were at 7f and didn't scream he's desperate for this return to 5f; not handicapped out of things, though. |

Showed fair form in four runs at 2yrs, signing off with a good fourth in 7f Epsom nursery in September; since gelded and can't be discounted on his seasonal return. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

Clear best effort in maidens when running-on second over 5f at Sandown; made no impression over 7f on AW last time but this return to turf may have a positive effect. |

Won a 7f Newmarket maiden (good) in October but finished down the field having led in French heavy-ground Listed race next time; weakened when attempting 1m on his comeback in April but this first start at 5f since his 2yo debut is still something of a surprise; fascinating to see what he makes of it in an additional tongue-tie with Oisin Murphy steering. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark on her third start when taking a Windsor maiden (good to firm) in June and it was a fine effort when second of 12 in Listed event at Ayr (also 5f, soft) in September; makes her handicap debut on this reappearance and she warrants respect. |
11/2 |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |

Close second to Chairmanfourtimes at Ayr but now meets that rival on slightly worse terms; comfortably held by Revival Power on York running the time before; up against it. |

19th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Close Listed fourth at Newbury last month (5f, good); beaten further when Listed fifth at York (5f, good to firm) eight days later but that form was strongly boosted in the Flying Childers; this will take less winning and she could be thereabouts for last year's winning yard; unraced on slow ground. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
In the placings on all five starts on a variety of surfaces as a juvenile (6f/7f) and he deservedly made the breakthrough on his reappearance at Newcastle (6f, AW) last month; respectable fifth of 14 at Hamilton on his recent handicap debut and this experiment at 5f looks worth a go. |

5th 5 (4) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

Placed on all his five runs at 2yrs before (gelded) getting off the mark in 6f Newcastle maiden on his return last month; he must enter calculations back in handicap company. |

The most experienced of these and has been placed on all five starts at 6f and 7f; has been gelded since his last run in October and he should go close. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
All starts at 5f; fast turf no problem when runner-up at Windsor (latterly promoted to first) in August and he bolted up in Wolverhampton maiden in November having previously gone quite close on handicap debut at Southwell (also AW); underwhelmed on final start of last term but subsequently gelded and he's in the right hands to progress this season. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |

Showed promise in his first two starts at Windsor (5f, good to firm) during the summer, especially when beaten a neck in a novice in August; not so good at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) last month, but still open to improvement on nursery/AW debut; shortlisted. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Improved in three consecutive C&D appearances last summer, finishing third of seven in Listed event before a commanding maiden win (also good; made all) in July; was cast in her box the night before an August assignment after which her trainer recently reported she was never really right; that stable tour also offered hope she's back in a good place and can go well on this handicap debut/reappearance. |
7/1 |

9th 14 (10) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
Well beaten when 40-1 for the Group 2 Flying Childers at Doncaster (5f, good) four weeks ago; better could have been expected but she drops back down in grade today and an each-way case can be made on her earlier form, including a staying-on Listed third at Sandown (5f, good) in July. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 1 |

Form figures of 4231 reflect a solid start to her career; however, had a straightforward task in Sandown maiden (good) most recently and this is a much stiffer assignment. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Catterick maiden (good) winner in August who was every bit as good when third at Wolverhampton (also 5f, AW; Kolkata Knight second) in March; didn't look to be making much of an impression when the door slammed in his face at Thirsk last time but it's too soon to write him off. |
6/1 |

10th 10 (4) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
5f win at Catterick on final 2yo start; flopped when strong favourite at Kempton on seasonal/handicap debut last month (too free over 6f); better effort when third at Wolverhampton 18 days ago (5f), having to wait for a gap to appear but keeping on when in the clear; still has some potential back on turf. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 2 (2) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Got off the mark on his third attempt in a Catterick maiden (5f good) last August; gelded subsequently and raced too freely when last of eight on his AW/handicap debut at Kempton (6f; 11-8) this month; in good hands and may be worth another chance. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Landed Hamilton maiden (6f, good to firm) on debut but better form after wind surgery when bagging Haydock handicap (5f, good to soft) in September; subsequently gelded and ran well for second (5f, AW; winner on the middle leg of a hat-trick) on his reappearance, while latest start from a wide stall at Chester can be written off; needs considering. |
9/2 |
|
11th 3 (12) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice as a 2yo, notably a 5f nursery (good to soft) at Haydock in September; gelded afterwards; made a promising seasonal return at Wolverhampton in March, narrowly failing to reel in one who has since boosted the form; appeals as being ahead of his mark, despite a 2lb rise for Wolverhampton, but stall 12 isn't ideal. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won for the second time, following wind surgery, in a nursery at Haydock (5f, good to soft) in September; has been gelded since and makes AW debut; any market move should be noted. |
