1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 44y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
The last of his 11 wins was in July 2024 but he missed most of last year and has taken minor honours in the first (C&D) and latest of his five starts this term; not totally ruled out. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Returned from an absence with an encouraging third at Salisbury (1m6f, good) in May and he's now 7lb lower; however, he's failed to threaten on his three starts since and has to raise his game. |

9st 5lb |
Multiple wins include six on the Flat, but none of any description since July 2024; absent 389 days before his Salisbury third in May but two major backward steps have followed; off ten weeks and down the weights. |

29th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner; pipped on the post - his third solid run in a row - at Sandown (1m6f Class 3, good) on penultimate start; did too much to soon back on the AW at Wolverhampton next time and, even over this shorter trip, those forcing tactics are tough to deploy at Newcastle; near career-best required. |
5/1 |

9th 8 (2) |
7th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Front-runner; just one win to his name but he's been banging at the door of late, missing out by a nose at Sandown (1m6f, good) 18 days ago; this doesn't look overloaded with pace and his rivals would be wise not to give him too much rope. |

19th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 2f 2y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Record of 2-5 for new yard features 5l defeat of Maxident at Goodwood (2m, soft) that was his first success beyond middle distances; ran well behind easy winner in notable handicap at Haydock (1m6f, heavy) most recently; in the mix, assuming he stays the new trip. |
7/2 |

2nd 5 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Very hit and miss across his four starts this season and well beaten at York (2m, good) last month; however, he's posted two comfortable wins in small fields this term (1m4f/2m, good/soft) and this two-time course winner is not written off with the forecast slow ground in his favour. |

3rd Jan 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Ran as though something was amiss four weeks ago but is accustomed to stronger races than this and is now 3lb lower than when placed for Joe Bradnam at Kempton (1m3f) in September; player if back on song. |

29th Nov 2024 Good 2m 0f 78y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Probably flattered by his proximity in a tactical novice chase at Cheltenham last month and has since had his limitations exposed in a Grade 2 there; however, he's back at a much more realistic level today and still has plenty of scope to progress from his convincing handicap win at Sedgefield (2m, good to soft) three starts ago. |

16th Nov 2024 Good 1m 7f 199y Class 1 |
11st 4lb |
Won a Class 4 handicap at Sedgefield (2m, good to soft) last month on second chase start and faced tough task when creditable third of four in warm novice contest over C&D (good) last time; this 5yo may have more to offer but others have considerably more substance to their claims. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 154y Class 3 |
11st 11lb |
Ex-Ben Brookhouse; has a decent strike-rate over hurdles (4-12), her latest win coming on her second stable start off this mark in a mares' handicap at Cartmel in May (2m1f, good); hasn't run quite as well since (tried over 3m last time); three previous wins were at around 2m4f; contender. |
7/1 |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 207y Class 2 |
11st 9lb |
Posted career-best performance when winning at Cartmel (2m1f) in May and also ran well when fourth over that C&D (again on good) last month; stays 2m4f pretty well but probably needs to find hidden reserves on this first venture beyond that trip. |
14/1 |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 3 |
11st 13lb |
Built upon pleasing stable debut when coming from off the pace for C&D (good) success under Leah Noreci in May, but wasn't quite in same form here last month and the forecast rain is another negative. |

19th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Up and down since making a successful handicap debut at Salisbury last summer (1m, good to firm; four ran); revived in a visor two runs back but that aid now left off and cheekpieces didn't work wonders when tried once before; rain would cast further doubts. |
16/1 |

2nd Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won four-runner race at Sandown (1m, good to firm) one year ago on handicap debut; three modest shows before creditable second in three-runner race at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) two weeks ago with first-time visor; manner of that encourages this move up in trip, on a competitive mark. |

raced in third, hit rail after 3f, outpaced and pushed along 2f out, ridden and went second 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, no match for winner |
