25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Turf winner who has bagged four wins at this venue; returns following a two-month break (has gone well fresh) but he's more a place prospect than a win-only one. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Returned to form with 8.6f AW win in March and comes here after two good efforts over 1m on turf; drops in grade here and should be fine over this extended 7f; might be the answer. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner who returned to form when scoring at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March; record of 1-18 on turf but he went close at Chepstow (1m, good) last month and is a big player if he can back that up off unchanged mark. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Visored for the first time when making a winning stable debut at Nottingham (8.5f, good to firm) last month and, although a beaten short-price favourite, posted another solid effort under a penalty at Sandown (1m); now 2lb higher but remains fairly treated on older form. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 4 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Changed hands for 9,000gns last month and comfortably exploited a reduced mark on last Thursday's stable debut at Nottingham (1m, good to firm), where he was odds-on in a first-time visor (retained); this C&D winner is ahead of the handicapper under a penalty and should be tough to beat. |
8/13 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Nine-time winner whose best effort this year came when a close-up third over C&D in May, taking his form figures at this track to 213; below his best in two starts since and has left the Newland-Insole stable (bought for 9,000gns); visor replaces blinkers for his yard debut and he's interesting. |

21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back off the same mark as when winning over 7f here in September; has won fresh so the four-month absence not a major problem, but he has never tackled a trip this short before; blinkers are given a go. |
12/1 |

17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Boasts a decent record in handicaps round here (two wins and two seconds from six starts) and ran better than his final position suggests over C&D from a wide stall two weeks ago; one to consider. |
12/1 |

9th 3 (9) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Didn't get home at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month, but his record in handicaps around here reads 21412, his latest win coming over this trip in November after six months off; still just 1lb higher and respected; stable also runs Bungle Bay. |

9st 6lb |
Made it 0-13 when only sixth over C&D 11 days ago on his second start of the season, but it's possible he's working his way back to form and he's well handicapped on last season's best efforts; not written off. |

24th Apr 2025 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

Made it 0-12 when tailed off in reapplied cheekpieces on recent reappearance; however, if he's following the same pattern as last year there could be a big run forthcoming with the blinkers back on this afternoon. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Hasn't found it easy in handicaps since a novice win last November; down in the weights and fitted with new headgear today but opposable from a wide stall. |

19th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |

0-13 but he's still relatively unexposed as a sprinter and he wasn't beaten far into third at Brighton ten days ago; one to consider. |

9th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |

12-race maiden with form figures of 5808756 for his new yard since December; has dropped a long way in the weights but slow starts have been an issue at times and he was never involved at Salisbury two weeks ago; others are more convincing. |
9/1 |

24th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Started handicap life on an unrealistic mark for Richard Hannon last year but is competitive now and shaped nicely again last time; it remains to be seen whether he has the toe for 5f but he's a keen-goer and one of the more interesting runners. |

9st 11lb |
Dual C&D winner (from lower marks) last autumn; couldn't sustain challenge when third at Redcar (1m, good to firm; 28-1) on penultimate start; lost many lengths at the start, toiling in competitive Class 4 at York latest; task isn't insurmountable. |

Falling in the weights and ran respectably when third to Rajapour at Redcar on Sunday, but the winner bolted up that day and it's hard to see the tables being turned. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
A two-time 1m scorer at Newcastle last autumn; yet to hit top form this season though, only seventh of 14 back over 1m there last month; mark is slipping but he still needs to take a step forward. |
