6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Record of 3-6 on AW includes a couple of middle-distance wins at Kempton; returns here off a handy mark but has stamina to prove over this new trip; 0-5 for current yard. |

Beaten only half a length when fourth of six at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) in June; however, beaten 4l when fifth back there (1m4f, good to firm) last time; slow ground may be preferable. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 6lb |
Did well on AW last winter and even better form when the cheekpieces replaced a visor at Goodwood (1m4f, good) four weeks ago, leading over 1f out to score with rather more authority than the half-length winning margin suggests; used to act on good to firm; up 3lb but firmly in the picture. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins for Denis Quinn in the winter and a respectable fifth at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in April on sole starts for John Ryan; left the impression he's still in form at Thirsk 19 days ago on his first start for this yard and cheekpieces now go on. |

8st 11lb |
Two 1m4f AW wins last winter for Denis Quinn and respectable fifth of 15 at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last month on sole run for John Ryan; however, it's a long time since he ran well on turf and has something to prove back on grass; stable debut. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Three-time winner on the Flat on good/good to firm ground; some useful runs in defeat over hurdles; something amiss over hurdles last time; started Flat campaign with a good run over 1m4f at Leopardstown. |
8/1 |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time winner on the Flat on good/good to firm ground, rated 90; some top runs in defeat over hurdles; beaten a short head at Navan in September and third behind the classy Talk The Talk at Limerick next time; soft ground likely against him at Cheltenham in November; positive return to action on the level at Leopardstown last time when second; big player. |

2nd 2 (8) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 10lb |
Twice a winner over slightly shorter in Bahrain winter before last; bought for 55,000gns last summer and campaigned over hurdles so far by new connections notably touched off in Navan maiden (yielding), too keen and didn't get home on soft at Cheltenham when last seen in November; yard going well, not one to rule out. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Best form on AW but has won on turf and it was his best effort on grass when third of six at Newbury (2m, good; plugged on) three weeks ago; each-way shout. |
10/1 |

3rd 8 (8) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Has done best on AW, including three wins at Wolverhampton (1m6f/2m) in the last six months; well held at Lingfield two weeks ago but has a modest record there; has won twice on turf, latterly on good ground at Bath (1m6f) last June but none of his turf form matches today's mark. |
25/1 |

8th 4 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Something of a Wolverhampton specialist (3-5) though he has won on Polytrack at Kempton; the drop to 1m4f didn't help last time so the return to a longer distance should help, but his high draw may not be ideal even over this trip. |

Three-time Flat winner and twice competitive in that scene during the summer; made an okay return to hurdling when an 18l third at Market Rasen and now tackles his first handicap. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |

Exposed as a fair Flat performer at best these days; pulled up twice and tailed off on the other occasion when tried over hurdles two seasons ago when with Alan King; best watched for now. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won two 1m4f handicaps at Southwell in late 2024 but he didn't match that form in three starts last year and left Archie Watson for 5,000gns in October; yard (also runs Shipshape) won this with a 33-1 shot last year and this one is likely to be a similar price. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Dual 1m4f winner here who ran poorly when last seen eight months ago (was withdrawn a week later, when found to be coughing, which may have had something to do with it); interesting to see how he goes in the market. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His last win was off 9lb higher over 1m4f at Brighton in September 2023; some efforts on AW during the winter were respectable but his return to Brighton last month saw him tailed off after a slow start; none too solid. |
12/1 |

21st May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
His last success was off 7lb higher over C&D (good) but that was in September 2023; some respectable efforts on AW during the winter and wasn't disgraced back over hurdles in March but others are more persuasive. |

12th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Mainly seen on the AW these days, but he did win three times on turf as a 3yo; interesting to see how he fares in the market on debut for Tony Carroll (same owner). |

6th 5 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Recorded his tenth win when scoring at Wolverhampton (2m, Tapeta) in January; held his form with creditable efforts in next three starts but his good spell came to a halt at Lingfield last month; has bit to prove again after that heavy defeat and his last turf win was in 2022. |
10/1 |

13th 10 (11) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |

Three course wins have come over 1m4f, but he has won over this sort of trip elsewhere; finished half a length behind St Faz when third of four at Southwell (1m6f, Tapeta) and now 11lb better off; each-way claims. |
