9th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Down to a career-low mark but he's been well held on Tapeta in last three starts and his last win was at Bath in August 2023; opposable. |
25/1 |
|
6th 2 (8) |
27th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Down to a career-low mark and wasn't beaten far at Newcastle three runs back when 4lb higher; however, lesser performances have followed at Southwell, where he's run well in the past. |
10/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice as a 2yo for Ed Dunlop; 0-11 for current stable and he's been well short of his best so far this year; drawn widest on a rare 6f run. |

bumped start, raced in last, switched left and headway on outer from 2f out, led over 1f out, went clear inside final furlong, readily |

8st 12lb |
2-2 on AW, following his easy nursery win at Wolverhampton in October with a novice success at Newcastle six days later; two runs in Dubai this year, beaten around 2l in a conditions event three weeks ago; further progress possible but it will be needed. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-time winner, with five on AW and one on turf; well handicapped on his Nottingham win (5f, good) last summer but he's been out sorts in three runs this season and needs a big turnaround. |
16/1 |
|
9th 7 (6) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Come to hand early in previous seasons but hasn't offered much in two runs back this time; now 11lb lower than when winning at Chelmsford last summer, which shows how things have gone since; needs a major revival. |
12/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Most of his success has come on AW but he showed at Nottingham last spring that he could get the job done on turf (5f, good); looked as though his recent seasonal return would bring him on and his lacklustre end to 2025 has seen him drop to a dangerous mark. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 5f AW scorer in 2025; has twice failed to build on an encouraging reappearance fifth at Windsor though, soon ridden when fifth of seven in 6f Chepstow handicap last month; lots more is needed. |
9/2 |
|
7 (1) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won over C&D two years ago but hasn't kicked on from an encouraging reappearance and looks vulnerable unless he can buck his ideas up. |
8/1 |
|
5th 8 (4) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
8st 5lb |
C&D winner; shaped quite nicely at Windsor on his seasonal return but he failed to build on it at Ffos Las 17 days ago; others appeal more for the win. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time AW winner, most recently at Lingfield (6f) in January off the same mark as today's; left the impression he's still in form on soft ground at Salisbury 23 days ago and has place claims back on the AW. |
8/1 |
|
5th 5 (11) |
9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
All four wins have been on the AW but he does act on turf; beaten 4l when second of five at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) ten days ago but soft ground would be a slight concern. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
30th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent gelding who's usually ridden from off the pace; no obvious reason why he won't go well once more, back over an easier 6f, returning from a short break. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
This is his first outing since last December but he's gone well fresh in the past and ran some good races in the second half of last year; his C&D form figures read 12772 and he can be in the shake-up if fully tuned up. |
10/1 |
|
5 (9) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't had many chances on AW but he looked good over C&D last spring and he picked up smartly to beat eight rivals at Chelmsford last month; this is a higher grade but a 4lb rise is fair enough and he still has a bit of potential. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (3) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Southwell Tapeta winner who is now 1lb lower than when successful at Haydock (5f, good) last summer, but probably needs a bit more than in his recent efforts now switched to Polytrack; stable triple-handed. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Running well this year, including a 1m2f win at Windsor (good to firm), but he wouldn't look to have much in hand off his mark; more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
4th 6 (5) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Scored over C&D (good to firm) in June and was close third off today's mark at Epsom (1m2f, good) last month; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort a fortnight later but still enters calculations. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Spent last year in France; fine record here, including two wins in summer 2024 and a third off this mark in a blanket finish two weeks ago; the latter followed a Windsor win (1m2f, win); looks set for another big run. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time course winner who has finished second four consecutive (twice over C&D on good to firm) since swapping cheekpieces for blinkers in May; likely to be right in the thick of things again. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 8 (6) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
All three wins have been over 7f/1m on good/good to firm at Brighton; has finished second over 7f/1m there in blinkers on last three runs; each-way chance. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins over 7f/1m here; runner-up in his last two starts back at this venue including when beaten half a length by Dion Baker eight days ago; a 4lb pull plus Jack Callan's 3lb claim gives him every chance of reversing the form. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
C&D wins in two of his last three starts, the latest his stable debut 16 days ago when he wore a tongue-tie for the first time; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. |
12/1 |
|
1st 4 (6) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Landed a second C&D win for Michael Attwater when taking a 0-50 classified event in June; below that level at a short price here a week later and is tried in a first-time tongue-tie for his new yard back into handicap company. |
6/1 |
|
5th 1 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Finds winning races difficult (2-25) but both wins have been over C&D, the latest in a similar contest (good to firm) last Tuesday; carries a 5lb penalty but looks sure to run his race. |

23rd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |

Second foal; dam French 1m5f winner, half-sister to 6f Group 1 winner Librisa Breeze; trainer has plenty of 2yo winners here and market check advised. |
