15th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 26y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Well-beaten when back over hurdles last month but stayed on well from poor position to go close under Natasha Cookson at Kelso (2m5f, good) ten days ago and looks well worth a crack at 3m. |

16th Sep 2025 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won small-field Flat marathon off much reduced mark last month but has not run over hurdles since summer 2023 and his current ability in this sphere is hard to gauge; best suited by good or faster ground. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Highly fruitful in his two and a half years with this yard, including two wins (Flat/hurdles) this February/March; needs to bounce back from a rare flop but the chief concern is his 0-15 record on Flat turf. |

13th Aug 2024 Soft 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Patchy campaign this season and needs to raise his game, but he's dropped down the weights and last year's best efforts came in blinkers, which go back on this evening (replacing cheekpieces); not discounted. |
14/1 |

5th 8 (4) |
21st Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 5f 218y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Yet to win (12 races) and not the easiest of rides but he's been on the premises plenty of times at 1m6f-2m, including when cheekpieces were installed at this track (claimer ridden) and Nottingham on last two outings; good each-way claims. |

6th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Yet to win and he isn't the easiest of rides but he's run some good races at 1m6f and improved for his reappearance when fourth at Redcar (good to firm; acts well on good) 14 days ago; not far away. |

He has won three times over hurdles since his last Flat success; signs of retaining ability the last twice but others look stronger, even at this level. |

9st 1lb |
A fair Flat/hurdles winner for Rebecca Menzies but he's yet to offer much in three runs for his current yard, well held in a pair of 2m handicap hurdles last month; he's hard to warm to. |

Won at Pontefract (2m1f, good) in June when upped in trip on third handicap start; mixed form since but he ran well when third at Catterick (2m, soft) two starts ago and is not discounted. |

9st 10lb |
1m4f/1m6f AW scorer this term but she came in only 11th at Lingfield (1m2f) three weeks ago; only twice raced on turf too so she has a bit to prove. |
13/2 |

11th 3 (3) |
1st Jun 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Favourite for seven of her eight AW runs this year, winning two of them and finishing second three times; flopped back on turf 18 days ago but that was in the mud and she could bounce back now returned to the scene of her emphatic win (1m4f) in April. |

Not proving the easiest to catch right this season and he beat only one in 1m4f classified event at Musselburgh 34 days ago; others appeal more. |

23rd Jul 2024 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has a poor strike-rate but one of his wins came in this race last year (good) and he was a fair third in a C&D handicap (good) last time; effective on slow ground earlier in career; firmly in calculations this afternoon. |
