2nd 8 (7) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His form has deteriorated since his last win last May but he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) nine days ago; has another career-low mark today and is not ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
One win apiece for his previous two yards but he looks far from solid on 2026 form for another new stable; best watched unless the betting suggests a big run is likely; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |
25/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |

One win apiece for his previous two yards but looks far from solid on 2026 form for another new stable; best watched unless the betting suggests a big run is likely. |

8th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb
|
No wins in 11 and hasn't been close to his best form on last three appearances; returning to 7f is a likely plus but others look safer. |
6/1 |

8th 2 (1) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-8 but a model of consistency, making the frame on his last seven starts, latest when third of nine on handicap debut at Lingfield (6f, AW) three weeks ago; holds place claims once again. |

8th 13 (12) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
15 races for one win, at Epsom (7f, good to firm; from 9lb lower) last July; faced 7f on AW for last four starts, with career-best form in two close calls, the latest under Mikkel Mortensen at Southwell late last month but today's stronger race for return to turf surely demands better still. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Sole win at Epsom (7f, good to firm; from 8lb lower) last July; fine on AW, as shown with near miss at Kempton (7f; beaten a neck) last October; sixth - faring best of the three involved in this race - in recent 7f Class 5 at Kempton; may strip fitter, with Mikkel Mortensen's 5lb claim handy. |
9/2 |
|
6th 1 (7) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has run very well in his last two starts over C&D, only going down by a neck in October; not seen since, though, and may just need the run. |

17th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 215y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Hasn't progressed from her respectable debut when beaten under 2l at Wolverhampton (7f) and was outpaced back at 6f last time; others appeal more. |
7/1 |
|
8th 9 (11) |
5th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has shown promise in a couple of 7f runs and this drop to sprinting could be a good move; improvement will be needed to come out on top though. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Six-race maiden who has finished down the field in two handicaps this season; wasn't beaten far on AW at Lingfield (1m; first-time hood) last month but she needs to find more back in trip; cheekpieces added. |
16/1 |
|
6 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five-race maiden; was returning from a 310-day absence when only sixth of nine on the July Course at Newmarket (7f; 33-1) three weeks ago; hood applied and set to tackle a new trip on return to the AW; monitor only for the time being. |
14/1 |
|
10 (1) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Not obviously well handicapped on last year's novice/maiden form (6f-7f) and has been absent since October. |
16/1 |
