28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Only 2lb higher than for his front-running win at Chelmsford in July but he hasn't matched it in three runs since, including back at Chelmsford 17 days ago; others appeal more. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Returned to winning form when making all over C&D in July; twice held on turf in the meantime, but one for the shortlist if the return here galvanises him. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Oldest contender in this field; gained last five wins on Newcastle AW and hasn't scored on turf for three years; brings mixed recent handicap form to classified debut. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Veteran (13-103), latest win C&D (from 5lb higher) on New Year's Day; out of sorts lately, so perhaps age is beginning to catch up with him. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
0-15 on turf as opposed to 6-24 on AW; on a winning mark and promising apprentice takes off 5lb but he does need to rebound from a poor run at Doncaster five weeks ago. |
16/1 |

9th 8 (3) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Six-time AW winner but he's 0-14 on turf and was only seventh of 17 back in this sphere at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; one of three runners for Mick Appleby and he has work to do back up in grade. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Returned to winning ways when scoring over C&D (good) last month off 4lb lower; raced too freely at Ffos Las two days later and may be worth considering back at his last winning venue. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 5 (5) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Placed three times from four starts here but his regular hunting ground is Bath and he scored there (1m, heavy) off 5lb lower wearing a new hood/tongue-tie combination in October; kept to that track until the hood was removed in ten-runner handicap at Chepstow (1m, good) on Monday when he saw it well to score under Mason Paetel; carries 4lb penalty but won't mind what the weather does; player. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Patchy round Bath for his current yard this year, mainly over further; ran poorly ten days ago, hard to predict and some way down the pecking order. |

9st 13lb |
Four-time winner hasn't scored since winning at Wolverhampton for his former yard in December 2023; failed to beat a rival on debut for this stable at Dundalk in April; can only be watched for now. |

pulled extremely hard, prominent, raced wide over 8f out, pulled way into lead over 6f out |

8th 6 (2) |
10th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Sole success in 14 starts came off 9lb higher at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in August last year; hasn't shown much in five starts since returning from eight months off in June and another 3lb drop not enough to tempt; can take a keen hold. |
12/1 |

24th Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Hindered by often failing to settle but is well handicapped granted a return to best; sole success came off 6lb higher. |
