11th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Dual Newcastle winner who's generally struggled since returning from more than a year off; his only below-par effort on Tapeta came when not seeing out 1m6f, however, and the handicapper's given him every chance. |
10/1 |

13th 10 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Often a front-runner; 13lb below last winning mark, but patchy form in five starts since returning from 14 months off in October; others make greater appeal. |
33/1 |

8th 6 (7) |
3rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Handy sort who was off for 14 months before returning for this yard in October; third of 11 when stepped up in trip at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) 11 days ago, but this will test his stamina further. |

14th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 5-11 on turf and his last success was at this track (1m4f, good to firm) last June; good second at Newcastle (1m2f) in final run for George Boughey but he returned for new yard with a tailed-off effort at Kempton (1m3f) last month; has bit to prove after that and he needs to bounce back near best; regular tongue-tie removed. |

13th 9 (2) |
29th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Regular winner in three campaigns with George Boughey, for whom he ended last June with a win at Pontefract (1m4f) and good second on Newcastle Tapeta (1m2f); unraced on Polytrack; hood joins his now usual tongue-tie and he'll be competitive for new yard (same owners) if starting this term where he left off last season. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Built on the promise of his seasonal return when a close second at Warwick (2m, good) last month, despite making a mistake at the last; a 5lb rise asks a little more, though Lewis Stones's 3lb claim helps offset that, and he still looks favourably treated on his best Flat form; with further progress likely, he's high on the shortlist. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Sole success came on the Flat in a Sandown maiden in 2023 when trained by Alan King; beaten 29l on stable debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good) 18 days ago in his first handicap hurdle; best watched. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Sole success on the Flat came in a Sandown maiden in 2023 when trained by Alan King; no joy in three runs over hurdles; sold for 10,000gns to join new yard in October; makes handicap debut and probably best watched for now. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Two wins at Newcastle (1m, AW) this year, including on his latest start last month; 2lb out of the handicap today and he's 0-13 on turf, but has been placed a few times on grass and is not discounted. |
6/1 |

1st 5 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just 2-33 but both wins have come here, the latest over C&D last month; found to be lame when down the field two days later and 7f looked too sharp when third here three weeks ago; he's one to consider now back up in trip. |
9/2 |

3rd 7 (6) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Too strong for his rivals in a Class 6 over a mile here last month; reportedly finished lame when disappointing (13-8f) behind Golden Strike here four weeks ago; revised 3lb higher mark has now kicked in. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 88y |

One of two runners for yard; five Flat wins when trained in UK; regressive for this yard, though running well at times; could go well on hurdles debut if jumping holds up. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Outsider of four when belatedly doubling his tally at Southwell last April (1m3f); hit the frame last two starts (1m2f) but not sure dropping back to 1m will see him play a bigger role this evening; Penfolds Grange looks connections' best hope. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

On a losing run and he's yet to hit top form this season, going keenly when a fading fourth of 11 over C&D in February; needs to take a step forward. |

14th Sep 2024 Heavy 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |

29th Jun 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |

Enhanced his good Chester record there in May (1m2f, good to firm); comfortably held off this mark at Epsom since but good chance he'll bounce back and Wolverhampton exploits bode well for his first visit here. |

17th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Useful in his younger days but nothing like as good for Alan King this year back from around 18 months off; perhaps the return to his old yard will do the trick and a reproduction of his Newbury third (1m2f, good) in May would give him a fair chance at this lower level. |

Disappointed when last in action and remains on a losing streak but competes off new career-low mark here and will be suited by the trip-and-surface combination; hooded for first time; can't be ruled out. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 4 |

No win since taking a Class 2 at Sandown (1m2f) in July 2023; kicked off 2025 with a pleasing AW effort at Newcastle (runner-up from 4lb higher) but unable to build positively on that since; latest 1m4f Ripon third (Haptics sixth) respectable but the wait for another win may go on. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Posted sound effort when placed off today's mark at Haydock (1m, good) last month but remains without a win since June 2023, and the faster ground here may not be ideal; not the percentage call. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 212y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Some encouraging efforts off a reduced mark this season but his form nosedived at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) two weeks ago; has something to prove again after that and his last win was over two years ago. |
