16th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three 2m wins on AW in the first half of last year; last success was off 4lb higher but the wheels have come off since the autumn and he was tailed off at Kempton (after another wind op) last month; has lots to prove and he needs a major revival. |

28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won three times on the AW in the first half of last year, the latest over C&D from 1lb higher in June; the wheels appear to have come off since the autumn, but he returns from three months off after a second wind operation; interesting to see how he fares. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins last winter for Denis Quinn and respectable fifth of 15 at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last month on sole run for John Ryan; however, it's a long time since he ran well on turf and has something to prove back on grass; stable debut. |
12/1 |
|
5th 9 (3) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
In good form for Denis Quinn in recent months including wins at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) in December and over C&D in January; closely matched with Wonder on a couple of bits of form and respected on first start for John Ryan (same owner); stable also runs Tommy's Promise. |
11/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

Made it two wins in a row when edging out Wonder over C&D last month; extended his run of good form when second of ten at Wolverhampton (1m4f) four weeks ago; should figure again. |

Has made his name on the AW, winning five times at 2m; arrives here in good nick and he's not had all that many chances on turf. |

8th May 2025 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
All five wins have been over 2m on AW; couldn't pose a threat at Lingfield last month but the drop back to 1m5f looked against him and he went very close on his Wolverhampton reappearance in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has possibilities back at his optimum trip. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Won low-grade 2m AW handicap on latest outing in October but hasn't run over hurdles since 33l defeat on handicap debut at Hereford (2m5f, good to soft) in February last year, and his profile is somewhat unconvincing. |
12/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Can front-run; 7yo who has had 16 starts, with his sole win coming over this C&D in April 2021; off since below-form third of five at Lingfield (2m, AW) in June and others are preferred. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
A dual winner (1m4f/2m1f) in 2025; off seven months before beating one in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster 29 days ago but should strip sharper here. |
12/1 |

5th 5 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
8st 10lb |
Two wins last summer came at a lesser level, latterly over 2m1f off 3lb lower, and he wants a good test at this trip; doesn't boast the greatest reappearance record down the years and, like stablemate Saratoga Gold, may need this after seven months off. |
12/1 |

17 (8) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
8st 5lb |
8yo who won two in a row earlier in the year (1m4f/2m1f, good to firm) before keeping on for second at Newbury (1m5f, good to firm) in July; not quite at his best when last of five at Southwell a fortnight ago (1m6f, AW) following a break but beaten only about 3l and he could build on that run today. |

AW Flat winner for Ralph Beckett in 2021; modest efforts at triple-figure odds in three runs over hurdles; improvement likely on handicap/stable debut. |

Useful in his pomp over middle distances on AW Flat but the last time he accomplished anything significant was December 2021; had wind surgery after latest start and is also now tongue tied first time. |

7th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won twice last year and is 2lb lower than when successful at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) in June; met late interference when beating one home over C&D 11 days ago (Green Team second); capable of playing a part at this level granted a clearer run. |

His Flat four-timer in 2017 culminated in a success over C&D; won four times over hurdles in 2021/22, but his efforts under both codes since the start of last year, including three outings for this yard, don't suggest the veteran will be winning this. |
