2nd 5 (1) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Gained his second C&D success when winning off a 2lb higher mark in February but he's been down the field in four starts since, including when missing the break at Lingfield 27 days ago; return to form is needed. |
8/1 |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Well short of his best on his last three starts but he won off this mark at Southwell in early February (7f); capable on a good day but this isn't sure to be run to suit. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time winner who has turned a bit of a corner in blinkers, finishing fourth at Southwell (AW; under Harry Vigors) and then nearly winning at Epsom 22 days ago (both over 7f); strongly considered. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Seven-time winner; yet to build upon his pleasing seasonal reappearance in March but ran quite well when fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) three weeks ago and switches back to turf on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
All four AW wins on Polytrack, the latest more than four years ago, and he's likely to need more than a respectable sixth at Newcastle in May, when having a rare run on Tapeta, and also on his Chester form since; headgear returns for the first time since last July. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Six-time course winner who is versatile trip-wise but all of his wins have been on good or slower and last two have been in the mud; on a dangerous mark but he didn't fire in his three runs this season; has often worn cheekpieces but is now blinkered first time; non-runner here (7.35) on Friday. |

His nine wins have been on good ground or slower, with six of them coming at Chester; caught wide there on his reappearance and was well held in seventh there over 7f 13 days ago; drops back in trip with cheekpieces back on. |

11th 10 (8) |
1st Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |

7f course winner who had dropped 6lb lower than when successful at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last December when beaten less than a length into third of 11 at Ripon (1m, good to soft) 12 days ago; races off the same mark but this trip looks to be right on the limit of his stamina. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Hasn't got going this year but he's dropped to a good mark on last year's high points and a tongue-tie is turned to; a revival is not out of the question; effective on soft but hasn't shone on heavy. |
20/1 |

Yet to fire this season but landed his third win here when successful in this race last year (good to firm) off 4lb higher; he has also been placed twice at this track and can never be written off around here. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Beaten under 3l in the Shergar Cup Stayers last time and is possibly running into form; however, usually races over further nowadays and this drop back to 1m4f looks a negative; cheekpieces reapplied. |
12/1 |

7th 8 (6) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Only eighth of ten in a 1m6f handicap at Newmarket a month ago in which he was second in 2024 and won in 2025 (on good to firm); that was yet another below-par effort and hopes rest on the tongue-tie making a difference. |
20/1 |

8th 9 (2) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Second in this race in 2024 and won it last year (good to firm); now he has a 4lb lower mark than last year; that's having failed to finish in the first six in any of his seven races since, but at least his latest start was better than reappearance and it's not unheard of for runners from this stable to surge back to form. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Very useful on the Flat in his prime and returned from long absence with two encouraging hurdle runs for new stable this season, latterly when close fifth at Uttoxeter (2m, good) three weeks ago; that form already gives him good claims and he could quite plausibly have a bigger run in him. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Won the Bunbury Cup in 2023; unraced beyond 1m on the Flat but seemed to stay the trip okay on jumps debut here following a long absence; however, what he achieved behind an easy winner in that small field is questionable. |
4/1 |

2nd 2 |
4th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Very useful on the Flat in his prime, with career highlight his 2023 Bunbury Cup success (7f; unraced beyond about 1m); absent since two below-par runs in spring 2024, though, and tricky to weigh up on stable/hurdle debut. |
