24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f; 10-1, from a 2lb lower mark) early in the New Year, having regularly caught the eye here prior; no obvious excuses when fourth over C&D latest (14-1); others more appealing. |
20/1 |

4th 4 (6) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Came from off the pace to score at Southwell last month, his seventh success; probably still on a workable mark but his latest run was below par and his record in recent months is very mixed. |

10st 2lb |
Very opposable on the balance of his chase form, especially from 7lb out of the weights. |

7 |
24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 4f 20y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles but has very shaky record over fences in recent years; pulled up at Cartmel one month ago and now 0-13 in this sphere; 2lb wrong today; too risky. |
25/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

Multiple Flat winner and twice successful over hurdles; 0-12 over fences and fell at his final attempt; others appeal more from 2lb out of the weights. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Prolific winner down the years, adding two AW handicaps to his haul in February; arrives in good form but he was no match for Imperial Guard here last week and the turnaround in the weights may be insufficient. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but placed twice since returned to 7f, latterly in C&D (good) contest won by Jkr Cobbler three weeks ago; 2lb higher today but probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (10) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Safely held on consecutive 6f starts this spring but looked back in good nick when close third at Musselburgh (7f, good; just behind Monhammer) on Tuesday and remains on a good mark; shortlisted. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Second to an in-form subsequent winner over C&D (good to firm) last month and again ran well when close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) nine days ago; remains on a workable mark; must be considered. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 6 (7) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
On the go since the turn of the year but largely in good nick and he came second of nine in 7f Ayr handicap three weeks ago; must enter calculations off the same mark. |

8st 10lb |
Three wins on turf but yet to fire for current yard; on a career-low mark and first-time blinkers are now equipped alongside the hood; not yet one to give up on for respected stable. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Free-going sort who hasn't been at his best for his new stable on AW this year; now 10lb lower than for his Ayr win last summer (7f, good), however, and no surprise were the return to turf to have a positive effect. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
7lb below his last winning mark but that was back in October 2024; retains ability and he has been placed in all three C&D runs; should give his running. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual C&D winner on soft ground, the latest off a 6lb higher mark in October 2024; plenty of sound runs since (placed over C&D on four occasions); each-way chance. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Weighted to her best still, despite having run poorly in two starts back; the visor worn for last year's three wins returns today, which is an obvious plus point and could bring about an improved showing. |
16/1 |

9th 6 (5) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Down the field on last month's reappearance at Catterick but may have needed that run; won three times in the second half of last year (6f/7f, good/AW) and is not discounted; has run well on good to soft going. |
16/1 |

9th 2 (10) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
She won three times in the second half of last year (6f/7f, good/AW) and her current mark isn't necessarily beyond her; a market check is advised but she may need this comeback run. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Two wins (7f/1m) in August 2024; best run last season was when second over C&D last May (good to firm); could bounce back from a below-par reappearance run last month. |

6th 3 (6) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Largely consistent 8yo who tends to race a bit too freely and is usually ridden patiently; suited by this C&D and quite versatile ground-wise but absent since slightly disappointing run 13 months ago. |

9st 7lb |
Won twice on the AW (7f/1m) in March after joining this yard; hasn't run quite so well since, although creditable third over 7f here two runs ago (good); softer going not ideal. |

9st 4lb |
In the frame three consecutive times in recent weeks, most recently when fourth behind Jkr Cobbler over C&D (good) eight days ago, but remains without a win since spring 2024 and recent 2lb rise is not helpful. |
8/1 |
|
4th 7 (9) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Without a win since spring 2024 but was placed behind Lope Y Linda over C&D (soft) last month and lost out only by a neck off today's mark at Musselburgh (7f, good) on Tuesday; must be considered. |
6/1 |
