24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 0-7 this year but he has encouraging recent form; ties in closely with Brosay on penultimate effort and ran well, faring best of the near-side group, in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, soft) latest; wears cheekpieces for first time on home soil; major contender. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Reinvigorated by gelding/wind operations in March; good seconds at York and Ascot either side of a York eighth (behind Northern Ticker) where plenty went wrong; 3lb ahead of the handicapper; capable of being involved. |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Gelded and underwent wind surgery after an unsuccessful stint in Bahrain over the winter; two good runs in 6f handicaps in midsummer, notably his York second in July (6f, good); only eighth back at that track two weeks ago but he stumbled leaving the stalls and then got a bump in the final furlong when still in contention for a place; missed an intended run due to soft ground as a 2yo and could probably do with it drying out. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Far from straightforward and his best form has come on AW; two good runs and three poor runs since joining Ruth Carr, his latest Newcastle fourth (blinkered first time) falling into the former category; not the most solid option but he is better than this level on his day and it is always worth a second look when Billy Loughnane is booked for the stable (four wins and four seconds from 22 rides). |
10/1 |

4th 10 (8) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
5lb lower than when third on his stable debut in February; struggled since and connections now reach for blinkers; not solid but he's more than capable on his day. |
16/1 |

10th 2 (10) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Blew hot and cold for Jack Channon and signs that it may be the same for new connections, shaping well at Wolverhampton in February but turning in lesser efforts twice since; well handicapped if this is one of his good days and the return of cheekpieces (first time for Ruth Carr) looks a plus. |

30th Sep 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 205y |

No joy since 2yo days in Britain, but placed twice this summer and, after 104-day break, nice run at Listowel last week. |

|
5th 1 (12) |
22nd Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 15y |

No success since two wins as a juvenile when trained in Britain, but was placed twice over similar trips to this in the spring; back from a break. |

14th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Course winner; off the mark for the year when winning a 1m handicap at Sandown in May; better form in defeat in four runs since; conditions should be fine but there doesn't appear to be much wiggle room in his current mark. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
19th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Campaigned mostly at shorter but appears to stay 1m2f; better than ever this term; has continued to perform well since spring success and was an unlucky third at Salisbury most recently (would likely have won but for traffic issues); major contender. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Has not had much racing for his age and never better than this summer, producing another career best when runner-up at Goodwood (about 1m1f, good), going down narrowly to one who was ahead of his mark, both suffering interference; up 2lb; solid form chance back at 1m. |

11th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Not totally solid on his 6f turf form, having failed to back up Newbury Listed effort in two subsequent runs; however, has a respectable peak rating at face value and holds possibilities if proving suited by this change of trip/surface. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (7) |
8th Sep 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Fourth in two starts at Newbury (6f, good; 33-1) in July, firstly in a novice (form worked out well) and then in a Listed contest (66-1); failed by some way to match that form at Salisbury (6f, good; 5-2) last month and has something to prove all of a sudden. |

28th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Only 1lb higher than for last year's win in this race (good to firm) and returns on the back of a solid effort at Windsor; holds every chance. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Multiple winner who usually gives a good account on this track, winning over C&D (good) in May 2025, and is on a winnable mark; showed signs of a revival on Wolverhampton AW last week after a relatively quiet patch and can be on the premises. |

7th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |

Seven-time winner and latest was at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in April; well handicapped on that form but he's not threatened since and was beaten 6l at Brighton last time; others preferred. |

5th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up on nursery debut at Newbury (7f, good) in August and filled the same spot at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last time behind one who has followed up off 4lb higher; runs off the same mark as last time and he's a major player on his AW debut. |
11/2 |

2nd 3 (5) |
15th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Down the field in his first three starts (6f) but took a step forward when second of 12 in a 7f nursery at Newbury 17 days ago; that effort offered hope of better and a 3lb rise looks fair enough; this will be the quickest ground he's tackled but he's a strong contender. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |

Ex-Richard Hughes; no worthwhile form since moving yards, under both codes, and blinkers replace the tongue-tie. |

Had some fair Flat form last year for Richard Hughes but he was beaten 32l in this sphere on yard debut last August and has shown little over hurdles in two starts this year. |

20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Still short of his best form but last month's midfield finish at Southwell was a step back in the right direction; 2lb lower today and no surprise to see him in the shake up. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

Well handicapped on the pick of his form which includes a win here, but he arrives under a cloud; finished last on Sunday and hard to fancy. |
