23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Five of his six wins have been on the AW and the other came here over 7f last May (good to soft); well beaten on his last three starts, including at Newmarket last time on his first start for ten months, and is now tried in first-time cheekpieces. |
7/1 |

9st 5lb |
Big improver in the first half of last year, with four wins; struggled in his final two runs but remains feasibly treated on his best work and is still lightly raced on turf; market useful back from ten months off. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Better than ever this term; doubled his tally on turf with big-field amateur riders' win at Doncaster (good to soft) in March and he scored again at Thirsk (also 1m, good to firm) in May; back in form when fourth at Goodwood last month and Jack Callan gets on well with him; yard going well; player. |

9st 9lb |
He's 2-5 for this yard, the wins over 1m on good to soft and good to firm; a slow start was no help last time at Thirsk but he might be high in the weights now. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Can miss the break but she won this race last year off 10lb lower and swiftly got over a Chester aberration when second of 11 here (1m, good to firm) under Arron D'Arcy four weeks ago; a player. |
5/2 |

2nd 4 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three turf wins include a 20-1 7f success when tongue tied here (good) last July; posted a cracking return from a break when 33-1 and second of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in April but it all went pear-shaped at Chester last Friday; has won at 1m before but last year's efforts over this trip weren't overly convincing. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Improved effort when just denied on his handicap debut at Windsor (1m) in May and he made no mistake with an emphatic win over that C&D (also good to firm) 12 days ago; raised 10lb but he's firmly on the up and looks the one to beat. |

9st 1lb |
Well backed when beaten just a short head at 3-1 on handicap debut over C&D (good to firm) four weeks ago; strong claims up 2lb. |

Both wins on the Flat have been over longer trips (1m6f/2m); most struggled since winning a maiden over hurdles last June and he was well beaten here over 1m2f in April; off since and others are preferred. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Endured a fair spell in the doldrums until cheekpieces woke him up when chasing home Siam Fox at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago; very well handicapped if that signals a revival in his fortunes. |

2nd 2 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Thrown in on his 3yo form but 2025 was disappointing and he's struggled in both runs this year; mark continues to fall but he needs a needs a big turnaround in first-time cheekpieces. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won two AW handicaps for George Scott in March; ran well on the second of two outings for current stable when third of ten at Newmarket (1m, good) last month; this looks easier and he should go close, at the least. |
5/2 |

3rd 5 (5) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice on AW within five days in March and has perfomed just as well on turf since then; could have run better on stable debut at Sandown but this looks easier. |
20/1 |
