29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Took well to first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm) latest start, registering a first handicap win; may have more to offer in the retained headgear; respected assuming he stays this new trip. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
0-7 in handicaps and expensive to follow but he's run some big races this season, most recently second of six at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) behind a well-handicapped winner; wears first-time cheekpieces and can be bang there off the same mark as last time. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 3lb |
His only race on firmer than good was on debut, when runner-up; sole win came in a 1m Ffos Las maiden as 3yo; that's from nine races and despite being favourite in his last five handicaps but all three starts this season (1m2f, 1m and 1m1f; never nearer at evens last time) confirmed that he is well capable of being seriously involved. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
He's had a long career but never been better than this season, winning on AW at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m4f); they were in March/April but he returned from a break with creditable third of six here (1m2f, good to firm) 15 days ago, again under Olivia Tubb; probably not far away. |

3rd 3 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
He's had a long career but never been better than this season, winning at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m4f) with a close third in between; they were all on AW in March/April under Olivia Tubb and he's not raced since, with turf runs in the last two years hinting that he's not quite so good in this sphere; also, the last time he raced on firmer than good was 2022. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with success at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March and backed it up with a good third of 12 in another 9.5f handicap there since; this C&D scorer can go well again off the same mark. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Steadily progressive filly who made the running when taking 1m2f handicaps (good to firm) at Doncaster and Beverley this year; didn't get the breaks at Pontefract last time and this return to 1m4f is no reason to rule her out. |

26th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Made the running when 1m2f handicap winner (good to firm) this year at Doncaster and Beverley; this is a less demanding task than her last two starts, so a return to winning ways can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Made the running when 1m2f handicap winner (good to firm) this year at Doncaster and Beverley; 25-1 and again set the pace when fourth of five in Listed race at Beverley (1m4f) 13 days ago, which was another good run but whether it's worth another 3lb rise in today's mark can be questioned. |

30th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Made the frame a few times during his spell in UAE and perhaps needed the run when returned to British soil last time; competitively handicapped on best form. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
AW and dual turf winner over about 1m2f last April-June; some minor honours in his November-March campaign in the UAE, mostly on dirt, without reproducing best efforts; tongue tied first time for today's return from four months off and he needs to be back at his peak; has a bit to prove on firmer than good (after one attempt) but his yard is among the winners. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Progressive to win three 1m2f handicaps (Lingfield AW, Chester and Epsom) this season before never dangerous at Newmarket three weeks ago on his first race on good to firm; best effort on good to soft, soft in places, the time before, with a strong finish to pip Grecian Legacy, and he may well bounce back to go well again. |
