27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Ended a two-year losing run with a hard-fought success at Ffos Las (5f, good) in June; 3lb higher on a first AW outing since April 2024; others appeal more. |

Broke slowly but finished well when 4l behind on good to soft at Catterick recently; that was his second run after a lengthy break; has won on soft. |

C&D winner in May 2021 (heavy); wasn't in top form last season so has dropped to a good mark but he was well beaten on soft at Haydock on reappearance. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Last summer's Ascot win (5f) not quite a distant memory but there has been little to cheer since, with poor starts (and a refusal to race) becoming a feature; can't be supported with confidence. |
10/1 |

5th 6 (1) |
1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Looked a sprinter with a big future when winning a well-contested 5f handicap at Ascot last summer but he refused to race at Goodwood 17 days later and he's been well beaten in three runs this year, starting slowly at both Epsom and Ascot on his last two outings; this is his first start at 6f and given he has been headstrong, it isn't sure to suit; not short of ability but the risks are obvious. |
20/1 |

16th 7 (2) |
6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Up-and-coming sprinter in 2024, best form when beating a high-class rival over C&D (good; handles good to soft) last July; however, he refused to race later that month and hasn't been sighted in two runs this year; too talented to ignore but he's back from another break today. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Well suited by 5f on quick ground; two runs for new stable, finishing third at Sandown last month before winning at Newmarket three weeks ago; 3lb rise still leaves him feasibly weighted. |
5/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
6yo who is well handicapped on last season's best efforts for Michael Bell and made quite an encouraging start for his new yard when third of seven at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago, particularly as he was tight for room against the rail; given a chance to build on that with Billy Loughnane taking the reins this time. |
5/2 |

3rd 2 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
6yo who is well handicapped on last season's best efforts for Michael Bell; however, it was a winless campaign and he failed to threaten at Yarmouth in April on his sole run this year; changed hands for 18,500gns last month and he needs to get back on track on this stable debut. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All five wins have come over 5f on turf and was only beaten a head at Thirsk (5f, good) six days ago; 1lb well in and won't mind what the weather does; major player. |
100/30 |

2nd 1 (12) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Has won five times on turf on a variety of ground; did best of her group when ninth of 17 at Doncaster (5f, good to soft) on her return but failed to beat a rival home at Yarmouth 55 days ago; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Yet to run a bad race over C&D, boasting a record of 12312 at the track; second in this race 12 months ago but 4lb higher this time round; met some trouble at a crucial stage at Newbury last time and that isn't the run to judge her on; should go well with all ground seeming to come alike to her. |
11/1 |

16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Eight-time winner, the latest at Bath on her seasonal return in April (5f, good to firm); three solid efforts have followed and she's likely to give her running once again. |
9/1 |

1 (6) |
25th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Absent since her second to Miss Show Off at Salisbury in early May; reappearance showed she can win when fresh but unplaced efforts in this race the last two years suggest a supporting role is more likely. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
On a losing run but he retains plenty of ability and his latest fifth of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) was another solid effort; should make another bold bid. |
4/1 |
|
5th 10 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Over two years since the last of his five wins; shaped well at Kempton on his reappearance but he hasn't built on it in two runs since; broke out of the stalls and withdrawn when favourite for a Kempton handicap last month; well drawn to attack and he lurks on a dangerous mark. |
8/1 |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Has five wins, four being on AW but losing run stretches back to May 2024; gets little respite from the handicapper but has run with credit on all three starts this year. |

22nd Dec 2024 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made an impressive winning debut when making all at Southwell (5f, Tapeta) a year ago and only beaten half a length there (first-time tongue-tie) on her penultimate start; blinkers now given a go after one try in cheekpieces, but she will do well to dominate this field. |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won on reappearance at Yarmouth in April and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and he needs to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces. |
11/1 |
|
6th 7 (8) |
17th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Below par since his 5f Yarmouth reappearance success in April but has dipped to 2lb below that winning mark; dangerous if staging a revival. |
8/1 |
|
14th 6 (18) |
26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All wins at 5f, one of them here at last year's Dante meeting, and he's on the same mark as when making a successful return at Yarmouth in April (5f, good to firm); best produced late off a strong pace at 5f though and his 6f form is unconvincing. |
