9st 2lb |
Won a 1m4f handicap here in June off 2lb lower and suffered a narrow defeat at Newcastle one month later; wasn't at his best at Newcastle last month and unlikely to get things all his own way in this field. |

2nd Oct 2023 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Very patchy since winning his first three last season; has claims on July's C&D second (Chillhi fourth) but was always well placed in a messy affair that day and has since bombed on turf; hard to know what to expect in truth. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 122y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten in three runs for new stable (Flat/hurdles) this spring; now 4lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival; blinkers return and visor is removed. |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |

Flat and dual hurdle winner for James Owen last summer but well beaten on both starts for new stable last month (hurdle/Flat); might be aided by refitted visor and/or first-time tongue-tie here but has lots to prove. |

Flat and dual hurdle winner during busy summer for James Owen last year but well beaten (over hurdles) on stable debut on Tuesday and returns to the Flat with quite a bit to prove. |

25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
6yo with only 13 races behind him and ran just three times last year, winning at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) on the second occasion; 1lb lower than that day but he does need to rebound from a desperate comeback run at Pontefract. |
16/1 |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Ran just three times last year, winning at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) on the second occasion, and soft ground there may not have suited when last seen; also unproven on good to soft; this lightly raced 6yo is capable of having a big say if fully tuned up and handling conditions. |
8/1 |

9th 5 (8) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Got up close home in this race on final start last term (good) and he surged back to form with another C&D win by a neck eight weeks ago (good to firm); a bit below form on his only start on softer than good (good to soft here last July); just 1lb higher than last time and, if the ground is okay, another strong finish from off the pace can't be ruled out. |

22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Won here in 2020; ended a long losing spell with a win at Newbury (1m3f) in June but finished last on both starts since; has not seen much action beyond 1m4f but ran creditably in a muddling 2m race on Kempton AW last November; others look more solid. |

9th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 7lb |
Disappointing favourite when last of four over 1m2f last month but ended long losing spell with quite comfortable win at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) two starts ago and will be fine over today's trip; big player if back on song. |
5/1 |

4th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Was winning for the first time since February 2021 when successful in another apprentice event at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) nine days ago; just 1lb wrong under his penalty and a contender now that he is back in form; wouldn't want rain, but he's not alone there. |

26th Jun 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Very useful Flat-racer who seemed to take pretty well to this game when second in three-runner juvenile hurdle at Doncaster (2m, good) in November; well beaten in valuable Epsom handicap on Derby day but still looks interesting on return to this sphere. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Often highly tried for previous stable; with new yard since September, for which he's had three races; second of 13 when 40-1 over C&D (good) in April, which he failed to live up to at Ascot three weeks ago but that was when tried in a hood (now discarded); bit to prove on softer than good. |

11th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Often highly tried for previous stable; runner-up in both outings (hurdle/Flat) for new yard, latest at Epsom (1m4f, good) where he was no match for the winner but ran creditably; possibilities, provided he takes well to first-time hood. |
