Won a valuable 2m handicap here in August 2024 (good); hasn't won since, but comes into this in good form (second over 2m on last two starts, with cheekpieces back on last time); no cheekpieces here but on a good mark and one with a chance. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 27y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Ridden this season by Lauren Young; won at Musselburgh (1m4f) and Hamilton (1m3f) on first two starts, with a good third at Thirsk (1m4f) next time, all on good ground; shaped as if still in form in a steadily run race on latest outing; this good season (better than 2025) has been over much shorter but he did win this race on good to firm in 2024; not dismissed. |

He's reappeared in rude health this year with wins under Lauren Young at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) and Hamilton (1m3f, good) before good third at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last time; he'll be fine at this longer trip, and also if slow ground prevails; could be bang there. |

Hasn't scored under this code since his French days in 2022 but looks interesting with usual visor removed, having gained all wins (Flat/hurdles) without headgear; yard also runs High Fibre. |

Runner-up (albeit no match for winner) off today's mark at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in May and didn't run badly on the Flat (1m6f) last month; could yet have a bigger effort in him over jumps but this drop back in trip may not be in his favour. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Readily drew over 8l clear of Nap Hand to land good prize at Cartmel (2m1f, good) in June and is now 3-3 over hurdles since fitted with a tongue-tie in the spring; another 7lb higher but further progress is possible. |
3/1 |

28th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Has done well since being tried in a tongue-tie; bids for a hat-trick after scoring at Newcastle in April (2m1f, good) and Hexham last month (2m, good); up 11lb in the process (7lb since latest win); a possible. |
4/1 |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Tongue-tie went on for six-runner handicaps on his last two hurdle races (2m1f/2m) and he won them both; his last Flat race was in 2024 for Tim Easterby and that was a pretty solid campaign; acts on Tapeta, unraced on Polytrack; needs to be at his best on return to Flat but no shock if he's a major player. |

Won a soft-ground novice for Charlie Johnston in September 2023 but has come up dry since; back from mammoth layoff with moderate run in a Limerick claimer on debut for this yard in June; may need another run or two to hit top form. |

10th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 3f 210y |

Failed to prosper in handicaps after showing decent form at two; had dropped from an initial rating of 85 to 70 by the time of his final start for Charlie Johnston in 2024; gelded now; likely to need after a long absence. |

10th Oct 2024 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Promising 2yo, winning at Beverley and then second over 1m on heavy ground at Ffos Las; campaigned over 1m4f+ with little success this year; dropped a long way in the weights and this shorter trip may help but there are risks involved. |

21st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |

Nine-race maiden over hurdles but has placed form and he won six on the Flat; made a bright start over fences in January but didn't fancy it at Huntingdon and refused early; the cheekpieces are off but wouldn't be a surprise to see him run well. |

9th May 2025 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |

The vast majority of last year was disappointing; however, perhaps first time up will be the time to catch him as he reappeared with a good third in this 12 months ago; now 12lb lower; could be dangerous. |

4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 61y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Runner-up twice in February (including C&D on soft) before making it 14th time lucky over hurdles in 2m4f Sedgefield handicap (good) last month; he and the runner-up came well clear of the third so he should competitive off 6lb higher. |

0-13 over hurdles and becoming rather frustrating but came second twice over 2m3f last month (soft/good to soft) and seems very likely to be in the shake-up again here. |

24th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 66y Class 5 |

Last Flat win came in November 2023 and he's 0-12 over hurdles; however, he ran well when second off this reduced mark at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last Monday and can be in the mix if backing that up. |

Four-time Flat winner; got off the mark over hurdles on his sixth attempt when making all over C&D (good) 15 days ago with first-time blinkers (retained) replacing cheekpieces; has solid claims to defy penalty. |

Four-time Flat winner who was placed on the last four of his five hurdling starts, most recently when close second in Sedgefield maiden (2m4f, good) last month; should be fine over today's shorter trip and has another big role to play; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |
