15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
The addition of a tongue-tie saw him return to winning ways at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in June; the tongue-tie was left off on last month's stable debut and he ran creditably in fifth at Southwell; this may prove too competitive. |

27th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made it 3-4 on Tapeta when winning off 4lb lower early last month; a poor effort on turf a few weeks ago will need forgiving but he's the type to respond positively to a change of yard and the headgear coming off, so holds possibilities. |
20/1 |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Triple turf winner who made it 3-5 on AW when leading close home at Wolverhampton (6f; tongue-tie added) last month; ran another good race when a close second at Ripon (6f, good) last time and he's respected off only 1lb higher. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Runner-up at Newcastle (6f, AW) before going one better to end a lengthy losing run over that same C&D 12 days ago; has won on turf, so the switch to grass is no issue and she's still on a nice mark on her old form following a 4lb rise. |

1st 7 (2) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

It's now 18 runs since her last success but retried in headgear when a solid third of ten in 6f classified event at Thirsk ten days ago; she can't be ruled out in another headgear change. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
She produced a positive performance at Royal Ascot and is now 7lb lower but three lesser runs have followed and she needs to raise her game; 4-29 on AW as opposed to 0-13 on turf. |
9/1 |
|
8th 13 (10) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |

She's 5lb lower than when winning at Newcastle (1m, AW) in February and when running well at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) in June; she's 0-12 on turf and unproven at this trip, and she's been below par at favourite course Newcastle on her last two starts (1m). |

13th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Usually races over 6f, runner-up at Pontefract most recently; no certainty to go one better, having failed to score for over two years and with the return to a stiff 7f presenting a question mark. |

5th Oct 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Had a good 3yo campaign but not won since; went close over 7f at Thirsk in May but neither run since has been comparable; slower ground would be preferable. |

5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |

2024 went well but no joy since; did go close behind Brighton Boy at Thirsk in May (7f, good) before struggling in a Class 2 on the AW; could be dangerous off this mark if he did get an easy lead, though that seems unlikely. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Added another two AW wins to his tally earlier in the year; unplaced in three runs back on turf but dropping back into a Class 4 should help; others preferred all the same. |

Successful twice over 5f at Southwell this year; ran respectably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) in April but he was laboured in similar conditions at York two weeks ago; has bit to prove again after that and he's never won off a mark this high. |

13-race maiden; on a dangerous mark on last year's best but it's been tougher going this year and the drop to 6f/fitting of a visor didn't have the desired effect last time. |

12-race maiden; in good form last summer but he failed to fire at Catterick last August and he hasn't threatened in two 1m handicaps this year; dangerous mark if the drop in trip and fitting of a visor perks him up; stable also run Canon's House. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Front-runner who is in fine form this summer and completed a hat-trick at Pontefract (6f) in August; posted another good effort under an aggressive ride with fourth of 12 in 7f Chester handicap last time; a likely player eased 1lb. |

Landed a pair of 6f handicaps here in early summer; well below form elsewhere on all three runs since, only 17th at York and Thirsk on last two outings, but the return to Doncaster ensures he retains some interest on this first 5f venture since reappearance. |
