18th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
21-race maiden but he's not been with James Owen for long and has finished runner-up in classified events over C&D and at Lingfield (7f, AW) in last two starts; should get a good pace on this drop back in trip and he's respected back in a handicap; reapplied cheekpieces replace a visor. |
9/2 |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
20-race maiden but he's not been with James Owen for long and was a close second in a classified event at Chelmsford (6f, AW) last week; that was eyecatching from off the pace and he looks interesting back up in trip. |
5/1 |

0-19 but shaped well before fading into fiffh in 1m Lingfield handicap for new stable this month (first-time visor) and may benefit from today's drop back in trip; interesting. |

31st May 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Showed some ability when trained in UK and again in two Irish maidens over slightly longer trips; looks quick enough for the minimum and could have a future in handicaps off this low a mark. |
7/1 |

4th 5 (2) |
21st May 2024 Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Showed some ability when trained in UK and a solid return at Sligo; can improve from that, so has a shout with a tongue-tie on. |

Chance on the pick of last season's efforts for Ed Dunlop; big prices and well beaten in two runs for new stable; down into classified company for the first time but there are risks attached. |

7th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Catterick nursery winner (7f, soft) for Ed Dunlop in September 2023, and runner-up on AW at Southwell (7f; 28-1, when 8lb higher) last summer; nothing positive to take from recent C&D stable debut; risky in first-time hood. |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 53y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Landed her sixth win in emphatic style at Ffos Las (7.5f, good) in August off 9lb lower; unproven over 1m and may need to come down the weights before she can be considered. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 4 (13) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Fine on soft and good ground; won by 6l at Ffos Las last month (7.5f, good) but a well-held third under a penalty at Haydock (7f, heavy) and now 6lb higher; has won at 6f but perhaps needs further now. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 9 (2) |
4th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual soft-ground winner who cashed in on a reduced mark when coming well clear at Ffos Las (7.5f, good) last Friday; 5lb penalty still leaves her 7lb well in and she went back-to-back under a penalty around this time last year; might take some stopping. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Cashed in on her reduced mark when scoring at Catterick (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago; back up 4lb but she won off higher last term and warrants consideration. |
11/2 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made the frame a couple of times earlier this season and she's well handicapped on that form, but her last three performances haven't come up to scratch and she needs to raise her game. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
C&D winner who bounced right back to form when second of ten back here eight days ago; already due a 2lb rise for that but stall 13 is far from ideal. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 8 (5) |
16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Three Tapeta wins, including C&D; recent form figures not inspiring but she didn't run too badly when sixth of 14 over C&D on her first run back from wind surgery and an excuse emerged last time (reportedly lost action). |
18/1 |
|
9th 10 (7) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Three Tapeta wins at other venues; finished behind Twilight Diamond at Southwell 24 days ago (first run after a wind operation); may get closer this time. |

16th Oct 2026 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Lingfield (6f, soft) in June and back on song when third of 16 at Doncaster (6f, good) last month; raced wide when close sixth of nine at Kempton (6f, AW) last time; should be fine back at 5f; possible player. |
10/1 |

6th 9 (6) |
5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Back in form last time, in the Doncaster handicap he'd won last season; any number of short-priced defeats to his name and isn't consistent, but is fine on the AW and capable if in the mood. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 12 (2) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won this last year (good) and is worth a second look; however, he hasn't really shone since winning at Lingfield (6f, soft) in June which tempers enthusiasm regarding his claims. |

26th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Little encouragement in three 7f novice runs but blinkers are added for his nursery debut and he is bred to do much better; check the betting. |
14/1 |
|
7th 2 (10) |
30th Sep 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Big prices and well beaten in two starts to date; low-grade handicaps are probably next on the agenda. |

Betting Forcast
13/2 Invincible Navy, 5/1 Always Love You, 3/1 Lady Ava, 3/1 Cypriot Diaspora, 9/1 Without Flaw, 20/1 Petra Celera, 9/2 Charlie Mason, 16/1 Dylans Ashes
Verdict
Preference is for Leicester scorer CYPRIOT DIASPORA, who looks open to further improvement in handicaps and represents last year’s winning yard. Lady Ava, another last-time-out winner who may well have more to offer, is feared most ahead of Charlie Mason and Without Flaw.[Steve Boow]
