12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Poor strike-rate but one of his two successes came over C&D; creditable effort in a Ripon handicap (6f, good to soft) two weeks ago and a 2lb drop makes him eligible for this grade for the first time; looks highly likely to run a big race. |
9/2 |

29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Infrequent winner but he was third in this race in 2022 on his only other Ripon appearance; not found his best form in two runs this spring but he's on a dangerous mark and a change of headgear could help (has won in visor). |

9th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

0-17 since completing a hat-trick over C&D early last year and recent form has been patchy; has dropped to a favourable mark, but others are still more compelling. |
16/1 |

10th 11 (4) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Completed a Wolverhampton hat-trick around this time last year and returned to form with a close fourth there 16 days ago despite a slow start and hitting some traffic; has won twice here so needs considering. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Serial slow-starter who has won seven times over 6f/7f on the AW; held in handicaps lately, but the return to this level offers hope and he's capable of playing a part if things pan out his way. |
10/1 |
|
8th 9 (10) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Serial slow starter who switches back from blinkers to the visor sported for last month's 0-50 Kempton win; will be happier back up from 6f but is yet another who'll need some luck from a wide stall. |
10/1 |
|
6th 11 (11) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Frequent slow-starter who is a four-time winner here, the latest in a 0-50 classified event over 7f last month; twice held since, though, and doesn't have a great draw. |

15th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Bred to be much better than this mark and her handicap debut effort at Wolverhampton four weeks ago (7f) was encouraging, not suited by the way the race panned out; should be quick enough for 6f, has the potential to do much better and also the assistance of an excellent amateur rider; lots to like. |

19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Steadily on the downgrade now but has been placed in two handicaps here this season (1m/7f) and also ran well in a recent classified race here (7f); suited by fast ground and probably worth another crack at 1m2f; more appealing than some of these. |
6/1 |
|
5 (1) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had two wins elsewhere since a course win last June; further good runs here back in the spring but returned from 78 days off yesterday (C&D) and, having led for much of the race, trailed in sixth of the eight runners; these classified terms are favourable. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Last run was too bad to be true and had made a positive start for this yard, and he's closely matched with Dr Ali; possibilities. |
10/1 |
|
12th 15 (17) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
On a long losing sequence but he has started life well for John Mackie on last two outings, fourth of 12 in 5f Catterick handicap ten days ago; very much one to consider off the same mark with cheekpieces refitted. |
10/1 |
|
4th 10 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Finished second in this race in 2023 (soft) and 2024 (heavy); good second at Wolverhampton on his stable debut (6f) two weeks ago; well drawn back on turf but his 18 turf runs have seen him steer clear of anything faster than good to soft. |

26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Opened his turf account when making a winning yard debut off 7lb lower at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last month; placed in two starts since, latest at that same track over this trip (ahead of Cooperation); comes here in good form and looks likely to go well again. |
3/1 |
|
2 (7) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained first turf win over 6f here (good to firm; stable debut) on penultimate start, and backed up with a solid effort (runner-up) at Doncaster; no issue with this longer trip and, while a combined 7lb rise will make life tougher, he's the one who arrives in the best form. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Five-time AW winner who made his belated breakthrough on turf when scoring on recent stable debut at Redcar (6f); up 5lb but he was as good as ever last time and has claims if he can back that up; last run was on good to firm but he's also effective on good to soft. |

15th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
0-25 but there have been encouraging signs for his new stable, finishing second twice at Wolverhampton (once for this rider) before a close fourth on Sunday; visor worn there replaced by the blinkers he wore for the earlier seconds; each-way shout again. |

15th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Exposed 23-race maiden; the odd run that brings him into the reckoning but amateur having her first ride under rules and he's likely best watched. |
16/1 |
|
6th 10 (10) |
14th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
0-22 but he has often run well in defeat, as when a close fourth of eight at Lingfield last week; drawn wide and a sharp 5f not sure to see him to best effect. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
7th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has the ability to find a 6f race on AW but now 0-21 and the return to front-running wasn't the answer when last seen in June (first-time blinkers, retained); can go well fresh though and a good run is not ruled out. |

8th 11 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |

Struggled to get competitive in second half of last year and returns from break with overall strike-rate standing at 0-35; 4lb wrong; overlooked. |
66/1 |
|
11 |
2nd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
0-18 over hurdles and 0-17 on the Flat; pulled up in C&D maiden in December and makes no significant appeal from 2b out of the weights on handicap return. |
