2nd 11 (11) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
He has run well over C&D in the past, including in May, and he didn't run badly when third of six in a Class 3 handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) ten days ago; each-way shout. |

Comfortably beat Rock Opera over C&D in spring 2025, albeit was in better form at the time, that success the middle leg of a hat-trick; not solid on 2026 results but has slipped to an attractive mark. |

9st 9lb |
Dual C&D winner; got up late to win a handicap at Beverley (7.5f, good) last month and ran another respectable race when fourth in a classified event at Ayr (1m; Park Lane Penny was second) 11 days ago; claims. |

Prevailed narrowly in Beverley handicap (7.5f, good) last time, bouncing back to form and showing that his old legs can still operate successfully; 1-1 at classified level; shortlisted. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
The handicapper has been in command since his runaway win at Leicester (6f, good) in April; today's return to sprinting is in his favour but he's likely to be vulnerable at this level. |
40/1 |
|
9th 10 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |

Raced exclusively at shorter, gaining most wins over 6f; looks likely to be outstayed and outclassed upped in trip/grade. |

8th 4 (3) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Kept trying when third at Doncaster last time (6f) but was beaten over 3l and he's not looked well handicapped since scoring by 6l in April; he's also only 1-16 over 7f. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Has shown most of his form over 6f on ground softer than good; close third in big field over 5f at Doncaster in sole run this term; enters calculations off same mark back up in trip. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 10 (14) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has had only one run over 5f and it was in this race in 2024 when he finished a well-beaten 2-1 favourite; quiet in a light campaign in 2025; others look stronger. |

14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
50-1 winner over C&D off 11lb higher in February last year; back on a good mark but hasn't been in top form recently. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well short of her best this winter but that is reflected in her mark and she has too much ability to discount now dropping into a 0-60; betting should be revealing. |
12/1 |
|
11th 8 (10) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Backwards since winning at Musselburgh (5f, Class 6, good) in August; kept on from behind to finish fifth of ten at Southwell (5f; 33-1) a fortnight ago; the handicapper continues to give her assistance from a career-low mark. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Yet to score this term but running well, fourth of ten in 5.5f Doncaster handicap eight days ago; he ought to be thereabouts once more. |
9/2 |

4th 2 (6) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Both turf wins have been over 6f at York, the latest last summer off 1lb lower; found some trouble in running when third at Pontefract last time and has another big effort in him. |

3rd 5 (8) |

Both turf wins have been over 6f at York, the latest a 22-runner handicap last July (good) when back after wind surgery; creditable sixth at Redcar last time (6f, good to firm); a possible. |

5th Feb 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Made a winning debut at Chelmsford; beaten in his five handicaps but got closer when beaten just over a length at Newcastle (6f) last time and he was running on after a slow start; considered. |
5/1 |

3rd 2 (5) |
19th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made a winning debut at Chelmsford (6f) this time last year; has failed to progress since but this drop to Class 6, off a reduced mark, may have positive effect. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Landed her first win on turf at Bath (1m, firm) in May on her stable debut; ran well in two runs back there since but looks vulnerable off 3lb higher. |
11/2 |
|
5th 5 (3) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
20-1 for her stable debut here last month but she kept on well to see off nine rivals (1m, firm); similar form when second of four back here 18 days ago; feasible mark still but ground slower than good would be a concern. |
9/2 |

2nd 5 (2) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
20-1 for her stable debut here two weeks ago but she kept on well to see off nine rivals (1m, firm); still has plenty of handicapping scope and she could be the answer. |
