5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
It's now 21 starts since his last success but he comes here in good form, fourth of ten in 5f Thirsk handicap 19 days ago; well in the mix. |
5/1 |

9st 6lb |
On a long losing sequence but he got back on track in first-time blinkers (tongue-tie also back on) with third of ten in 5f Carlisle handicap 18 days ago; well in the mix off the same mark with headgear retained. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-9 (eight on AW) but she went very close at Newcastle (5f, AW) off 2lb higher in December; various headgear (including today's blinkers) has been tried over 6f subsequently and she's shaped like a return to 5f will help. |
15/8 |

4th 11 (1) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Some fair efforts at a low level on AW over the winter; perhaps needed the run when down the field at Carlisle (6f, good) on recent return to action; another change of headgear today. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest C&D second on good to firm shows he's in reasonable form; ought to be in the mix again at a course which suits (four wins) but all nine career successes have come on good or softer. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 7 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Has won twice on good ground but other seven wins have been on good to soft/soft; had his ground when third at Nottingham two runs back, and not beaten far when seventh at Thirsk last week (5f, good); on a good mark but needs rain not sun. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his fifth success when seeing off ten rivals over C&D (good) in May; only narrowly denied another at Thirsk (5f, good) last month but below par when 3l third of five at Nottingham latest. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 4 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his fifth success when winning at Catterick (5f, good) last month off a 2lb lower mark than today's and he was narrowly denied at Thirsk (5f, good) nine days ago, bouncing back from a lesser effort; contender. |

9st 6lb |
Six-race maiden last year for George Scott, going closest when 1l second in a seller; sold for 5,000gns after final start; market may prove best guide on stable/seasonal debut. |
8/1 |
|
2 (6) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Second of six in a seller at Leicester (6f, good to firm) in July before finishing fifth of nine in a handicap at Nottingham (6f, good; didn't get the best of passages in first-time blinkers); returns to AW and steps up to 7f (dam 7f AW winner); headgear switch. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Early promise for previous yard but didn't progress and it's been a struggle off high marks since switched to handicaps; dropping steadily in the weights and down in grade so may do better; has worn a hood, first-time cheekpieces today. |
16/1 |

9th 11 (12) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

0-10 and she has yet to shine for her new stable, beaten 14l behind Simba's Pride at Ripon five weeks ago; lots to prove. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Opening mark suffered from one good run as 2yo and although she's dropped a few pounds this year she didn't find as much as the second Jack Rabbit Slims and third Power Of Chora over C&D recently; shade more needed. |
8/1 |
|
4th 3 (7) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
She's dropping down the weights but her form has gone the wrong way in handicaps and she's 0-7; needs to turn things around. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

2-39 on turf, but creditable fourth at Ayr last week (6f, good); worth considering. |
11/2 |

4th 8 (7) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Has course form at 5f; losing run goes back to Thirsk (6f, good to firm) in May 2025 and he's been through troubled times since, despite taking a healthy slide down the weights; risky. |
