16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
9yo who capitalised on some leniency from the handicapper to win at Musselburgh (7f, good) three weeks ago; goes well there but he's a C&D winner too and he should be in the thick of things again from just 2lb higher. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
9yo who hasn't been at the top of his game on either start this season but wasn't beaten far when sixth of ten over C&D three weeks ago and he's down to a tempting mark; won over C&D last April; possible contender. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Effective on turf but still has a better strike-rate on AW and ended his rather truncated 2025 campaign with defeats (admittedly not entirely disgraced) in major handicaps over this C&D, finishing sixth then ninth; needs to raise his game on reappearance. |
16/1 |

26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Couple of sound efforts back on turf since his productive spell on AW; has something to find with Akkadian Thunder on Royal Ascot running last time but that effort suggests he could be set for further prize-money, which again goes down to sixth place. |
14/1 |

6th 16 (31) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Can lead; progressive on AW since dead-heating for most recent turf win, at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) last May; ran a solid race when a close fourth of ten back on turf at Haydock (7f, good) in April, but several of these should prove better treated. |

Gained sole turf success in 2021 and it's two years since last AW win; 0-5 for current stable but he could strip fitter for his Beverley reappearance a fortnight ago. |

25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Unbeaten in three runs as a 3yo, including a C&D handicap off 8lb lower; beaten favourite in all three runs this year but she's run to a useful level and can feature prominently once again. |
6/1 |

4th 7 (3) |
6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won first three starts last season (including on good/soft) and reappeared with close second at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) in June; only fifth at Windsor (6f, good) since but received an early bump and shaped as though this return to 7f would be ideal; retains potential; could have a big say. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Has been running over 7f but of more interest back at 6f and this is her first run at the trip on a straight track since running up against a success story at York (good to soft) in June; on the premises off 5lb lower if cheekpieces don't tip her the wrong way. |

Unplaced the last twice on her first two attempts at 7f but those were on good ground and a slow surface seems preferable; stays well over 6f and things could click at 7f this afternoon if she gets favourable conditions. |

Only 2lb higher than for his Salisbury win (7f, good to firm) in July; held his form since and he has the assistance of a useful claimer in the saddle; each-way shout. |

6th 9 (12) |
6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |

Hasn't really kicked on from his 7f win at Salisbury in June but has posted some fair efforts; in top hands and this lightly raced 4yo may be able to take a sizeable step forward at some stage. |
7/1 |

4th 4 (3) |
2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Recorded his second win when scoring at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) in June and was a good second at Kempton next time; didn't fire at Ripon 13 days ago but that was on slow ground and he could resume his progress here; in the mix. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won over C&D off this mark last summer but does most racing now over further and wants a good test at this trip; said to have run flat last time but does have his good and bad days now for a yard responsible for two others; 2-4 for Kaiya Fraser. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Won at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January and close fourth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February before winning over this C&D (good) a fortnight ago; it was a tight finish but he's gone up just 2lb; again in calculations. |
9/2 |

1st 7 (4) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |

6lb lower than when winning from a poor draw at Chester (7.6f, good to firm) last August and just 1lb higher than when successful at Newcastle (7f, AW) in January; ran well when a close fourth of 12 at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time and capable of playing a part; stable also runs Kelpie Grey. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Now 11lb lower than when successful for David O'Meara last autumn but has lost his way; it's a long time since he won on turf and even longer since he ran in a sprint, so he is hard to fancy back from a break. |
33/1 |

3rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

8lb lower than when successful for David O'Meara over C&D in October, but has lost his way including in five starts for this yard; drops into a Class 6 for the first time in his career, but has plenty to prove; cheekpieces return. |

3-13 at Chester (the wins over 7.6f) but the last time he scored anywhere was in May 2023; has his lowest mark since 2020 and a shout on plenty of 2024 form, but seasonal debut may not be his best moment. |
