23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Split James's Delight and Elmonjed in top 3yo handicap over C&D (good to soft) in 2024; failed to win in 2025 but he has edged down the weights and his three runs for Paul Midgley have been quite encouraging, faring best of those in the far-side group when sixth of 16 back on turf at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 37 days ago; considered. |
25/1 |

6th 7 (6) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Failed to win in 2025 but he has edged down the weights and his two AW runs for Paul Midgley have both been encouraging enough; no issue with the return to turf; type to win races sooner rather than later. |
10/1 |
|
6th 7 (8) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
All four wins when trained by Craig Lidster; drew a blank for Ivan Furtado last year but was second over 6f at Kempton on final start; faded as if his first outing for this yard was needed when eighth of 11 over 6f here 15 days ago; should last longer this time. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Useful 5f turf form in 2025 but his season slowed down later in the year and he's been below best, despite the reduced mark, this term; 0-3 on Newcastle AW but he did handle that Tapeta earlier in his career, so perhaps the switch to this track might pay off in first-time headgear. |
8/1 |

4th 9 (17) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Second to Castan in a division of this race in 2025; led for a long way when fourth of eight at Musselburgh 17 days ago; 6lb below his last winning mark; has plenty in his favour. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Behind Al Hussar on his C&D reappearance 25 days ago but he did leave the impression the run would bring him on, weakening having led for a long way. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who was just denied at Newcastle (5f, AW) five weeks ago after leading for most of the final 1f; just as effective on turf, may still have untapped potential and high on the list. |
5/1 |
|
2 (1) |
27th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Helped force a strong pace at Southwell on last month's return from 12 months off, weakening in the final furlong; should last longer today and he retains potential. |

14th Oct 2024 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won two in a row in the spring (soft/good to soft) and returned to form when second at Beverley (7.4f, good) last month; however, she was soundly beaten at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) recently and has to bounce back. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Poor strike-rate but his win came in the corresponding race 12 months ago and his penultimate second here came in a 0-65 handicap; likely to make another bold bid. |
15/2 |
|
5th 10 (2) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
1-19, the success in a C&D classified stakes last March; has previous with any number of these, including Latin Five, Thank The Lord, and Okami; beaten a neck by the in-form Digital (Azucena fourth, La Rochette fifth) over C&D latest; thereabouts if in the same fettle. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
4yo who is 0-8; beat only one rival home at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in June and dropped away inside the final furlong there over 5f last time following a wind operation/three weeks off; back on turf having been dropped another 3lb. |
10/1 |
|
5 (3) |
16th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced 4yo (0-7) who only beat one home on her return from six months off here (6f) in June; off another three months having undergone wind surgery and it needs to have made a difference. |
16/1 |
|
2 (9) |
16th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
0-6 and has mixed record, but she's well treated on her stand-out effort for Tim Easterby and wasn't disgraced in a Southwell maiden (5f) when last seen in December; now goes handicapping on her return and needs watching in market back up in trip. |

18th Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Third foal; dam 5f 2yo winner (RPR 87), half-sister to fairly useful winners Tahoo (5f including 2yo) and Asmund (6f-7f, including 2yo); late foal and a rare 2yo for the yard. |

21st Oct 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
It wasn't a strong maiden that she won at Chepstow on debut in July (6f, good to soft) and she hasn't progressed since; likely vulnerable once more on this AW debut. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (10) |
26th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
6f Chepstow winner on debut (good to soft) and fair run when seventh in Ascot Group 3 next time (6f, good); hung right when third at Windsor last time (6f, good, showed plenty of speed); interesting on first run at 5f. |
5/1 |
|
5 (7) |
5th Sep 2023 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Ready winner of a 6f maiden at Chepstow on her debut in July; couldn't cope with Group 3 company next time but she ran creditably at Windsor three weeks ago (6f, good); drop to 5f shouldn't be an issue; considered. |
