29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 8lb
|
Has made a bright start for his current yard and made it two wins from his last three runs in 1m4f handicap at Beverley two days ago; also took this in 2024, so he's a player under a 4lb penalty. |
5/1 |

1st 1 (4) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his first win for this stable at Doncaster (1m4f, good) this month and ran well at Southwell (1m3f, AW) six days ago; still fairly treated off this 2lb higher mark and has good claims. |
5/2 |

2nd 7 (5) |
21st May 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Hit traffic when not beaten far over C&D late last month and duly justified favouritism at Doncaster on Saturday; no penalty for that apprentice race win and is shortlisted under the experienced Fletcher Yarham. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Boasts a good record at Pontefract, where he should have notched a fourth win early last month, and today's similarly stiff 1m2f should suit; not as consistent now, unsurprisingly given his age, but is still more than capable at this level. |
8/1 |

18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Unraced here; goes particularly well at Pontefract where he just failed to catch Star Start over 1m2f last time; stays this far and should be on the scene. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
9yo who has an excellent record at Pontefract, most recently taking advantage of a reduced mark in a 1m2f amateurs' event in June under Serena Brotherton; back up 4lb and well beaten at Haydock latest but has to be of interest back here unless the ground is softer than good. |

Has done most winning on Tapeta but likes it here and had been running well for Brodie Hampson back from a lengthy absence prior to a quieter effort three weeks ago; needs to bounce back. |

11th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Had the run of things up front when beating four rivals at Beverley (1m4f, good) and only sixth since then over 2m and 1m6f; this is probably a better trip but he's not the easiest to predict. |
20/1 |
|
6 (4) |
28th Jun 2025 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Allowed to dictate when winning a five-runner race at Beverley (1m4f) in May; ran respectably over 1m6f the time before but weakened out of it off this 4lb higher mark over 2m on latest; back to 1m6f but others are a little more persuasive. |
16/1 |
|
3 (8) |
10th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
No problem with 1m4f but is still to totally prove his stamina over this far; was allowed to dictate when beating a small field last time and a 4lb rise puts him on a career-high mark. |

Has lots of form under Henry Main, notably two wins in 2021; three-year losing spell is a big negative but current mark is attractive; not ruled out. |

Very modest on the Flat nowadays and tailed off last month on her first two hurdle starts; a transformation is needed. |

9th 5 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
A fair 11f Flat winner but she was hooded when a well-held fifth on her yard/hurdling debut in 2m Doncaster maiden 15 days ago; in good hands though so not written off. |
40/1 |
|
5th 4 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 128y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
A fair 1m3f Flat winner but she ended her time with Tony Forbes below par last autumn; starts out over hurdles now for the in-form Jennie Candlish yard so can't be discounted; hood (tried once in 2023) is refitted. |

13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Belatedly opened his Flat turf account in similar event over C&D (good) last week, taking Bath record to 42321 and adding to his AW/hurdles wins; incurs 4lb penalty but defied this mark a couple of years ago; very solid chance. |
11/4 |

1st 9 (8) |
4th May 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |

Multiple AW winner who has won over hurdles but is 0-18 on turf on the Flat; won at Wolverhampton in March (1m4f) but he's not easy to predict. |

4th 10 (2) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Landed some tidy bets when taking this in 2024 but subsequently went on a barren spell; finally back on the scoresheet last month but disappointed in a classified (also C&D) one week later; had an excuse that day but others look more solid. |

Now at the veteran stage but has won five times and been placed on nine occasions around here; twice finished runner-up in similar events over C&D at the start of the year and another big effort seems likely. |

8th 7 (2) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
10st 11lb |
Six-time Tapeta winner who has finished runner-up in classified events at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in his last two starts; still looks feasibly treated back in a handicap and he's a big player if he can transfer his form back to Polytrack. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (6) |
9th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Won over hurdles off today's mark in 2023 and was placed on the Flat last autumn, but returned from a layoff with a heavy Flat defeat last month and he's tricky to weigh up on this first hurdling start for 603 days; tongue-tie (last used last May) is refitted. |

Ridden last six starts by Poppy Wynne, first past the post at Doncaster (1m6f, good to soft) last July but disqualified for whip offence; solid sequence continued but there may be a question over his readiness today after a break; market may guide. |
