1st 9 (4) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Failed to beat a rival in three starts over 7f last autumn; having been gelded, he reappeared in a 1m classified here (soft) yesterday and won with something to spare, also shaping as though he would be suited by today's extra distance; has to be respected under 6lb penalty if running again. |

10th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Finished last in three runs last autumn; gelded since; the market signals may help to ascertain whether improvement is likely. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Record here this year reads 34513323 including a short-head defeat by Roman Secret over this trip in April; likely to go well and there shouldn't be much between them again. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 10 (4) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Running consistently round here all year at the bottom level; no obvious reason he won't get involved again but this is a touch stronger having been nudged up another 2lb. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Hit form, winning classified contests at Wolverhampton (8.5f) and Lingfield (1m) earlier this year; not far off those levels when last seen at Wolverhampton (sixth) two months ago; possible player on first visit to Newcastle with the promising Conor Whiteley booked. |
13/2 |
|
6th 7 (2) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His options have improved since eligible for classified events and he's 2-3 at that level of late, over C&D and 1m at Lingfield; needs more back in a handicap. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won four times on AW in the first three months of last year for Gay Kelleway but left that yard under a cloud and hasn't built on encouraging first go for this stable in March; work to do on his return to turf. |
25/1 |
|
7th 7 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Regular slow starter; like The Spotlight Kid, his four wins have come in two lots of two; not beaten all that far in his two runs since leaving Gay Kelleway but more is needed from him. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Well treated on historical data but holds poor claims on his form for current yard. |
33/1 |

13th 1 (3) |
23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Ended his time with James Owen with a 1m win at Lingfield (AW) last July; poor form in three runs for new stable this spring. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Both wins came on AW in 2023 when trained by Richard Hughes; has gone into freefall since and was last of 11 at Bath last month. |
12/1 |
|
11th 4 (9) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Well handicapped on last season's best forrm (AW) but he ended the year with a whimper and returns from a 135-day break with an inexperienced amateur booked. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Three-time Polytrack winner, twice in a hood, who goes in first-time cheekpieces; has been enjoying a consistent spell, albeit at the bottom level. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Dual course winner who has finished placed in his last four runs including when third in a classified event at Southwell (1m) in January; should be fine on this drop back in trip and he's respected back from a short break. |

Long time since he has shown any worthwhile form and now 0-28; look elsewhere. |

Struggled in her first two handicaps, the latter on seasonal debut at Nottingham (8.3f, good) this month, and has now been unplaced all five starts; can't be recommended. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Pulled hard then folded tamely at Beverley (1m2f) last time, failing to back up his reappearance effort (good second over 9.5f on AW); may benefit from this drop back in trip, combined with change of headgear. |
11/2 |
|
11th 11 (9) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Five-race maiden who ran well, beating all bar the market leader, at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) on seasonal debut; possibilities off same mark, provided he builds on that effort. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Astronomical prices when failing to beat a rival in three 7f novices on turf/Tapeta last year; returns from nine months off having been gelded; little appeal. |
66/1 |
|
8 (7) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

150-1 for two runs this summer, when finishing a remote last each time; expect more of the same. |
