4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins came at York when trained by Richard Hannon; denied a clear run when finishing fifth of ten at Sandown (6f, good to firm) ten days ago; has dropped to a career-low mark but may be getting his act together. |
6/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Spoiled chance by refusing to settle on seasonal/stable but this month's midfield finish at Newbury (6f, good to firm) was more encouraging; has slipped to a dangerous mark and should now be approaching concert pitch. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Unexposed 3yo who returned after a year off with a promising second in a Nottingham novice (5f, good to firm; first run after wind surgery) three weeks ago; flashed her tail in that race but it's still early days and she needs a close look on handicap debut. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 8 (6) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Beaten around 6l in two novice events at Newbury (6f, good to firm) last summer, with RPRs in the 50s on both occasions; has had wind surgery but she needs a transformation dropped in trip after a year off. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a Lingfield maiden (6f, AW) in September but has struggled in three handicap starts since, most recently on her reappearance at Kempton in April; off since and now returns off a 3lb lower mark. |
5/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Landed 6f Lingfield maiden in September but she failed to kick on sent handicapping, beating one at Wolverhampton (6f) the following month; has something to prove on her seasonal return. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Plenty of near-misses before finally off the mark over 5f at Bath (good) last month; still looks on a workable mark but she's not easy to predict and was disappointing after a slow start at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last time; risks attached. |
12/1 |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Plenty of near-misses before finally off the mark over 5f at Bath four weeks ago; the cheekpieces have had a positive effect and the extra furlong looks fine; upped 5lb; needs considering. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sharply regressive for Tom Ward this season, coming a stone down the weights; goes in first-time headgear for her new yard, back from a short break, and is worth tracking in the market. |
6/1 |

9th 2 (9) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not matched 2yo best in three runs this year; latest Wolverhampton sixth was a small step back in the right direction and she now drops into her first Class 6 handicap; not discounted. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins for previous stable; 0-6 and inconsistent for current yard but has a good chance at the weights on classified debut, assuming this is one of her better days; shortlisted. |
11/4 |

21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 6 |

Campaigned mostly at sprint distances; scored three times for previous yard but has inconsistent results for current stable; something to prove back over 7f. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Five-race maiden who missed the whole of last year; not beaten far when last of four behind So Smart and Savannah Smiles over C&D (good to firm) eight days ago and 1lb better off with the pair, but he still needs to find a bit more. |
10/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
He was returning from 736 days on the sidelines when third of eight in a 0-50 classified event over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago; tired in the closing stages on that occasion and he should last longer with the run behind him; open to improvement. |

Struggled in maiden/novice events including two tailed-off efforts at massive prices this summer; now drops into a 0-50 event but she needs a transformation at this new trip. |
