4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
A poor show last May prompted a second wind operation and it was a solid campaign otherwise; never better than when second this February in 2m AW handicaps at Wolverhampton and Lingfield, but peak turf form isn't far behind it and he'll probably be on the premises. |
7/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Developed into a useful handicapper on the Flat for Hugo Palmer last year; having rejoined Olly Murphy, he continued the good work when second on 2m Wolverhampton reappearance three weeks ago, with reopposing pair Enemy and Brasil Power narrowly behind in third/fourth; likely to go well again. |

Developed into a useful handicapper, including on AW, last year for Hugo Palmer; close third in the Mallard at Doncaster on final outing; however, needs a career-best performance to defy current mark on first run since rejoining Olly Murphy. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Had plenty of Flat racing and won five times; 0-6 as a hurdler and after his fourth to The Resdev Tyke on Boxing Day he ran no race at Sedgefield; others preferred. |
16/1 |

7th 1 |
4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time Flat winner who is 0-5 over hurdles but ran pretty well when fourth of 11 at Wetherby (2m, soft) on Boxing Day on his first handicap start in this code; today's extra yardage looks a plus and he's in with a chance. |
11/2 |

27th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 145y Class 3 |

Five-time Flat winner who has taken quite well to hurdling in recent weeks, finishing fourth at Worcester (2m, good to soft) and Kelso (2m, good); may have to settle for another minor prize here, though. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins last winter for Denis Quinn and respectable fifth of 15 at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last month on sole run for John Ryan; however, it's a long time since he ran well on turf and has something to prove back on grass; stable debut. |
12/1 |
|
5th 9 (3) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
In good form for Denis Quinn in recent months including wins at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) in December and over C&D in January; closely matched with Wonder on a couple of bits of form and respected on first start for John Ryan (same owner); stable also runs Tommy's Promise. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Made it two wins in a row when edging out Wonder over C&D last month; extended his run of good form when second of ten at Wolverhampton (1m4f) four weeks ago; should figure again. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Scored over C&D last May for Brian Ellison; yet to fire for his new yard in handicaps at Wolverhampton (1m4f) and Lingfield (2m) this spring though. |
14/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
12th May 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
A fair 1m6f scorer for Brian Ellison in 2025; beat only one for his new handler after seven months off in 1m4f handicap at Wolverhampton last month; needs to take a big step forward. |
16/1 |

6th 7 (3) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |

Debuts for a fourth yard having been picked up from Brian Ellison last autumn for 7,500gns; won first time out as a 2yo and on his comeback last spring, which gives hope, but there's not much room for manoeuvre off this mark. |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Scored over C&D in January off just 1lb lower; absent since a heavy defeat over hurdles in May but the January win came after a 95-day break; visor the headgear of choice today; more appealing than many. |

28th May 2025 Good To Soft 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Seen only once over hurdles since 2023, when pulled up last summer, and his AW win in January came in a low-grade handicap; needs to prove he can still be competitive off a mark this high over jumps. |

1st Apr 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 11lb |
Two-time Flat winner who won on his handicap hurdle debut at Doncaster (2m, good) in January, beating a big field with something to spare; also effective on good to soft; unexposed in this code and this 5yo may well take a 7lb rise in his stride. |

21st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
8yo whose losing run goes back 19 races to May 2021 and he was merely mid-division at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last time; however, he has a patchy record on AW and has run some good races on turf this term, including when third at Thirsk (1m4f, soft) two starts ago; possible player off career-low mark. |
9/1 |
|
8th 4 (6) |
28th Aug 2023 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
His last win was over two years ago but he's well treated on his old form and has reached the frame in four of his five runs this season; 1lb lower than for his creditable third at Thirsk (1m4f) last time and has each-way claims again back on AW. |
