23rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
All wins at 7f/1m but he was placed twice over 5f in Bahrain during the winter; met trouble when second favourite at Chester (extended 7f) on his return to Britain 17 days ago; harder to pin down than some of these and certainly not discounted. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
All wins have been over 7f and 1m so it arguably bodes well for his prospects here that he's performed well over sprint trips in Bahrain this year; very good second in this race (good ground) last year from an outside stall and this front-runner has fared a lot better with the draw this time; top of the list. |
11/2 |

1st 6 (2) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who has won three times this year and latest was over C&D in June; couldn't hang in there at Galway (sixth of 15) last time but that was a respectable effort from a tough draw and he still looks on a workable mark; dangerous dropped back in grade. |

Legs two and three of her January hat-trick for Ian Williams came here (7f/1m); went off the boil for him and hard to fancy on what she's done in three starts for this yard. |
14/1 |
|
9th 3 (1) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A three-time winner early in 2026, including over C&D, for Ian Williams; not discredited on just her second run for current yard when fifth in 1m handicap here two weeks ago; in the mix off a slipping mark. |
20/1 |

5th 6 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Rattled off a hat-trick here and at Newcastle in January, but she was disappointing last time on her first outing since leaving Ian Williams; needs to bounce back. |

Joined this yard last autumn; gained his fourth course win (eighth win in all) over 1m in December; unplaced on next start; more like it when fourth in a claimer on latest. |

Not long with this yard but gained eighth career win here over 1m when coming late off much reduced mark last month; failed to back that up from 6lb higher last week; veteran is opposable on these terms. |

Five-time winner; 2-33 on turf but hasn't won a race of any description since September 2023; decent third over C&D latest, however, and place claims if he can back that up. |
7/2 |

3rd 17 (5) |
20th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Has done a lot of racing since her last win which was in September 2023; fair sixth here on penultimate run, but will need to reverse to reverse form with Staywitherjohnny and Half Nutz; first reserve. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 210y |
10st 0lb |
Recorded third turf win earlier this month at Roscommon under positive ride from today's rider (1m4f, good), overcoming wide draw and having been hampered; 5lb rise takes her back to a near career-high mark so interesting to see if she can back that up. |

Four-time winner is 2-19 on turf; 1lb lower than when winning at Down Royal last July (1m5f, good); stayed on well for second over 10.5f at Dundalk latest; player back on turf. |

No wins from 21 races; sent off the 9-2 favourite at Gowran for stable debut under today's rider but weakened inside the final furlong to finish sixth of 16; perhaps capable of more with that run under his belt considering his strength in the market that day. |
