10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
C&D record reads 131, the defeat coming behind Emperor Spirit in this race last year; 5lb lower than for his last win and although he's yet to really shine this year, the booking of Oisin Murphy is notable; contender with frequent cheekpieces now discarded. |

9st 11lb |
C&D win last August came off a 3lb higher mark; encouraging reappearance here five weeks ago and today's ground will be more suitable; solid claims dropped into a Class 4. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Drawn away from the action on his return to turf but was then said to have been unsuited by the undulations of Catterick last time, which would be a concern round here; 2lb above his last winning mark and has a bit to prove back from a short break. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Had an inconsistent spell on AW towards the end of 2025; has a better strike-rate on turf and recorded last year's August double off slightly higher marks; possibilities returned to this sphere on reappearance. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Yet another to win first time out for this yard when turning in a career-best effort at Brighton last Sunday; makes appeal under a penalty for that, especially with Jack Callan taking off 3lb, and he looks to have Ancient State to worry about. |
5/4 |

1st 4 (3) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins for Jack Jones last year, a 6f novice (good to firm) at this track and a 5f handicap at Windsor (good to firm); ended 2025 with two lesser efforts and he was again below par on his seasonal return in April; back down the weights as a result and he wouldn't be the first horse to be revived by a move to James Owen (same owners). |

10st 0lb |
His wins have come from the front in the summer, including this time last year on his second run back; turned in a satisfactory comeback at Windsor, when losing a shoe, and is entitled to have come on for that first start in seven months; shortlisted. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Scored at Lingfield (5f, AW) last June and signed off with a good third of ten in 5f Yarmouth handicap in October; in the mix if fully tuned up for his seasonal return. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
2-5 on AW, most recently at Lingfield (5f) in April off 5lb lower; beaten three times on turf since but can't be discounted back on AW despite going without any aids. |
11/2 |
|
7th 3 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Back to his best since joining his current yard but he's shot up the weights and there have been some costly defeats to go with two AW wins; now 0-17 on turf, having pulled hard in a messy Bath affair last time, and will need a career-best effort to take this. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time AW winner, most recently at Lingfield (6f) in April off 2lb lower; well held at Yarmouth on his last two starts but has an excuse three weeks ago (reared leaving the stalls); returning to the AW could suit. |
11/1 |

5th 4 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins have come over 6f on the AW including two in April; handles turf, but he has a fair bit to find with Neyva's Angel on their meeting here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; he too may be better over further. |

9th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
12-race maiden; last of eight at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 13 days ago when cheekpieces (now absent) were tried; others are more persuasive. |
14/1 |
|
8th 8 (4) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Inconsistent 11-race maiden who produced one of his lesser efforts at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last time; this return to 7f is no problem but he needs to bounce back with cheekpieces added. |
