11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Three-time C&D winner who's getting on and been on the downgrade since missing a year; found his level again lately but is some way down the pecking order. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to stay this sort of trip; very low-key start for this yard but has gradually found his level and was blinkered when third in 9.5f course selling handicap ten days ago; cheekpieces, previously worn without success, are refitted. |

3rd 4 (2) |
31st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three over C&D and once on turf when trained by Mark Rimell; has not been in the same form since and blinkers now replace cheekpieces; down to a career-low mark but doesn't look ready to take advantage. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up twice in a row on AW in the winter before two heavy defeats; didn't run badly back on turf at Haydock (1m, good) last month after a break but the AW seems to be his preferred sphere (just 1-15 on grass). |
33/1 |

7th 7 (4) |
21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time AW winner but he was disappointing at Southwell (1m) in his final two runs during the winter; has won on turf but that was a long time ago and he doesn't have a great record when fresh; opposable on return. |
16/1 |

11th 4 (6) |
22nd Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Disappointing here three weeks ago but he'd been in good form beforehand, second at Wolverhampton and Lingfield around the turn of the year; needs a full revival to win though. |

10th Jan 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
0-11 for Sir Mark Prescott, but made an immediate impact her debut for this yard when winning with plenty in hand at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) last month; has run well to finish fourth in both outings since including when beaten just over a length here (1m3f) nine days ago, but may find this trip too sharp for her now. |

1st Jan 2023 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Left Sir Mark Prescott for 60,000gns and as an 11-race maiden; straight on the scoresheet for this yard with a comfortable win at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and the race didn't go her way back there last time; stays further than this so don't doubt her stamina. |
5/1 |

4th 7 (1) |
21st Dec 2022 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
11-race maiden (four seconds) in her 11 starts for Sir Mark Prescott; 60,000gns sale and dropped in trip when obliging comfortably in five-runner race over C&D last Monday on first attempt for new connections, so she's firmly in the mix under 6lb penalty. |

8th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four-time winner, split between turf and AW; last success was off 2lb higher at Salisbury (1m) last August but he's been out of sorts in last three runs and needs a major revival; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |

31st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |

Ran well at Bath in June but has lacked consistency this year; 7yo who's far from guaranteed to take advantage of being 2lb below last winning mark. |
14/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Recent form a bit patchy, but his second of 11 at Bath (1m, good; first-time visor) on his penultimate start took his record off today's mark to 313212; does most of his racing over shorter these days, but shouldn't have a problem with this trip. |

21st Dec 2022 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Won twice this year and on the premises on last two outings; huge majority of his AW races have been on Polytrack but he's 2-2 at Wolverhampton, albeit in a claimer and seller (2019 and 2021); stamina beyond 1m (unconvincing in both attempts) may be more of a worry. |

0-9 for current stable but has become well treated, having gained all wins off higher marks; shaped encouragingly at Newcastle (7f) most recently while leaving the impression this return to 1m will suit; not ruled out. |

Showed promise for Sir Michael Stoute and again on last month's stable debut (extended 1m1f, Tapeta); he will need to pull out more to gain his first win but the addition of cheekpieces could help. |

21st Dec 2022 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to his C&D win last month; followed up at Wolverhampton (extended 1m) three days later and he went very close in his hat-trick bid back at Wolverhampton last week; due to be 2lb higher from the weekend and another good run looks on the cards. |

Seven-time Tapeta winner who sits 12lb below his last winning mark (dead-heat over 1m2f at Newcastle in February 2022); out of sorts lately, with hopes seemingly pinned on the change of scenery - a first ever visit to Southwell - and a drop back to 1m working the oracle. |

28th Sep 2022 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
2-4 since returning to the AW with cheekpieces fitted, her latest cosy success coming at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) on Saturday; has a 6lb penalty to carry, but there may still be more to come from her over the trip and she has run well on Tapeta; leading claims. |
