18th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Held off his revised mark since an AW win late last year; not a bad effort back from a break returned to turf at Chester (1m4f; good record first time out in his younger years) last time and this is less competitive. |
8/1 |
|
8th 15 (10) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ended 2025 with emphatic AW win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) and came second on both AW starts in January (1m2f/9.4f); absent since lesser effort in February and not ideally drawn today but has two course wins (including a division of this race in 2024) on his CV; could have a say. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten in three runs for new stable (Flat/hurdles) this spring; now 4lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival; blinkers return and visor is removed. |
25/1 |

11th 10 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten on both starts for new stable last month (hurdle/Flat); might be aided by refitted visor and/or first-time tongue-tie here but has lots to prove. |
33/1 |

Flat and dual hurdle winner during busy summer for James Owen last year but well beaten (over hurdles) on stable debut on Tuesday and returns to the Flat with quite a bit to prove. |

14th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Scored at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) in May off 2lb higher mark; has only been placed once in seven starts since and finds himself on a career-low mark; doesn't seem ready to take advantage and best watched. |

20th Sep 2024 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Still just 1lb above his last winning mark and far from disgraced when fourth of 12 in a 0-80 at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last time; each-way claims if seeing out the longer trip. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Record of 1-11 but he's well handicapped on his best form last season and was beaten less than 2l when fifth in a Class 4 at Chester (10.3f, good) last time; hood is now removed but he could be dangerous on this drop back in grade. |
6/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
4th Aug 2024 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well beaten after racing far too freely on heavy ground here (12.3f; first-time hood) in June and needs to settle better today but ran well on both previous Chester starts and may benefit from this drop back in trip. |
13/2 |
|
5th 4 (7) |
15th Jun 2024 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
A fair 1m2f winner in 2023 who shaped well on his seasonal return when fourth of seven over C&D last month; he can make his presence felt with a hood added. |

30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
4-8 at Wolverhampton and never ideally positioned in a slowly run race here 17 days ago; never ruled out around here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Newcastle run and he had bumped into a progressive one at Southwell beforehand; this C&D winner has the assistance of Billy Loughnane in the saddle today; contender. |
7/2 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Had a good spell in late 2025, winning three Tapeta handicaps at around this trip; good second to a well-handicapped opponent at Southwell last week; one to take seriously. |

7th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just 2-31 but had dropped in the weights and undergone wind surgery before finishing a creditable third of ten at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) in December; each-way claims if backing it up. |

17th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

He's been disappointing since July and has undergone wind surgery since finishing seventh here (1m2f) last month; drops in trip/grade and a market check looks prudent. |

1st Jul 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Form figures of 122 on last three visits to Wolverhampton, at 9.4f/1m4f last October-December; well beaten on turf last twice (cheekpieces were added at Chester last time) but the return to this track sparks interest. |
16/1 |

10th May 2024 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
9.5f AW win last October and runner-up in two of his four runs since, including over this trip; apprentice good value for a 5lb claim in this company but he's been well beaten in two turf runs (both on slower than good); rated 6lb lower on grass as a consequence. |
