4th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Fairly useful 1m2f handicapper; won at Yarmouth in July and mostly consistent otherwise this term; remains on career-high mark, however, and this longer distance is an unknown. |

10st 4lb |
Doubled his winning tally when easily disposing of three rivals from the front under Joe Bradnam in an apprentice event at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) seven days ago; still 4lb well in despite a 2lb rise, but ground softer than good would pose a question. |

Won at Ripon (1m, soft; Barley was second) last July off a mark 8lb higher than today's but he's struggled since; others have stronger claims. |
25/1 |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |

12-time winner; creditable second in this race in 2022 and 2025 but on both occasions he was in better form at the time; out of sorts since his last success. |

26th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Yet to win in 14 attempts on turf, but has a chance on her C&D second last month (soft); not so good last time, but wouldn't rule out. |
7/1 |
|
6th 11 (8) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner in January and been in good form this summer, reaching the frame again when second at Beverley (1m2f) 12 days ago; likely to be on the premises but suspicion she'll prove vulnerable to at least one of the 3yos in this line-up. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
27th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

0-13 on turf, but three fair runs since a visor went on, including over C&D (soft) and on Tapeta last time; a chance. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Ran well at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last month; not so good in either run since, the latest over C&D two weeks ago; not ruled out but not the most solid option either. |
10/1 |
|
9th 3 (12) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Belatedly came good with two 1m1f wins last summer and looked back in prime form when close second at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last month but his latest run was slightly disappointing and others in the field have more persuasive profiles. |
10/1 |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Veteran who has been ridden by Rebecca Hitchen since joining current yard, posting form figures of 31216; hindered by wide trip in AW contest on reappearance most recently; could go well with that outing under his belt. |
12/1 |
|
6th 4 (12) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Two wins for Rebecca Hitchen last summer; fine on Tapeta but returns from ten months off looking high enough in the weights and he's entitled to need the run at his age. |
12/1 |
|
2 (5) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
In good form for new yard this summer, recording a comfortable win at Redcar (1m, good) in July and just as good when second at Musselburgh (7f, good) three weeks ago (both under Rebecca Hitchen); another prominent showing is on the cards with the return to 1m in his favour. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Continues to tumble down the weights and he's one to watch in the betting in a first-time tongue-tie, but he's been well beaten on all three starts this season and a major turnaround is required. |
16/1 |
|
11th 8 (5) |
11th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained both wins over C&D but seems badly to have lost his way since his dead-heat here last June; well-beaten 50-1 shot on both appearances this year; considered only if much stronger in the betting today. |
12/1 |
|
14th 11 (4) |
14th May 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins at Ripon (1m, good to firm), the latest from 5lb higher last summer; hasn't beaten many in his last four starts including on his recent Thirsk reappearance; best watched for now. |

22nd Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Opened his account in 8.5f Wolverhampton handicap in May and wasn't disgraced on turf debut when fifth of nine over 1m here 15 days ago; possibilities now upped in trip. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (5) |
7th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Confirmed the promise of some of his novice efforts when scoring on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; raced prominently) latest; 3lb rise looks fair and there could be more to come over this trip. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (8) |
23rd May 2023 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Similar level of form in his last three starts as when fifth of eight in first-time blinkers (now removed) at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) this month; up in trip for handicap debut and dam's side of pedigree suggests he may improve for it; each-way claims. |

3yo maiden; inconsistent this term but, judged on penultimate effort, may benefit from the reapplication of visor; second run for new yard. |
12/1 |
|
9th 7 (6) |
16th Sep 2023 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
Eight-race maiden who goes without headgear for this stable debut, having returned to form in a first-time visor when fifth of 15 at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last month on her final outing for Hugo Palmer (sold for 11,500gns); however, Ed Dunlop and Sophie Smith combine well and she's not ruled out. |

5th Sep 2023 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-bumper horse; had wind surgery in March; has improved since going handicapping with fair efforts at Beverley (7.5f, good to soft) and Musselburgh (7f, good) last month; further progress likely, particularly back over 1m; a possible. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
11th Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 33y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Well beaten over 1m2f on handicap debut in June but looked suited by drop in trip when third at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) ten days ago; ideally needs to learn to settle better in the early stages but could still have a bigger run in him. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
1st Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Maiden who offered hope when second of six in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f, AW) in February but not built on it since, including on handicap debut after four months off at Ripon (9.7f, good; first start since wind surgery) in June; others make greater appeal. |
