4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Much improved last year, including after his second to Plage De Havre in this race at Haydock; York sixth to Klassleader on reappearance but back to his best when staying-on third of 16 at Royal Ascot (1m6f, good to firm) 18 days ago; needs respect. |

3rd 3 (4) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Had a ball last year after being gelded, winning three of his six starts and as good as ever when a close fifth stepped up to 1m6f at Haydock in September; however, he is a 6yo and perhaps high in the weights now, a suspicion seemingly confirmed by his York run one month ago; there's no obvious significance in the return of cheekpieces. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Short-headed on 2024 reappearance and won it last year; thrived last season when winning three races and not far away in the other three, including at this track; highly respected for that campaign, and first-time-out record, but the handicapper reacted and he now needs to resume improvement. |

28th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 5y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won on second start (8.6f, AW) then followed up in Lingfield novice (1m1f, good to firm) before completing the hat-trick in Ayr handicap (1m2f, good to soft); another good run when clear second of five behind an improving sort at Ayr (1m2f, soft) and he's a likely player in first-time cheekpieces. |
3/1 |

2nd 2 (1) |
31st Jul 2023 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won two novice races in May (AW/good to firm) and completed the hat-trick in convincing fashion over C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago; a 6lb rise could prove to be lenient for this unexposed 3yo. |

1st 5 (3) |
9th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in May on her second start and followed up in Lingfield novice (1m1f, good to firm), making all each time; makes handicap debut off a fair mark and he's open to further improvement for last year's winning yard; firmly in calculations. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Narrow C&D winner (Class 4; 12-1) in November and, broadly speaking, has acquitted himself respectably since; stamina was likely overstretched at Wolverhampton (1m4f) latest; it's interesting that Jack Callan (1-1) returns to the saddle from just 1lb above that winning mark. |
4/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
1m2f and 1m4f AW winner, including on Tapeta; backed up November's Newcastle success with a respectable third at Lingfield last month; was below that level at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) latest; drops 1lb and can be competitive if he acts at this track. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Third in 1m4f handicaps at Musselburgh on her last two starts, staying on nicely on both occasions; drop back in trip on faster ground isn't sure to suit. |
10/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last three wins came over C&D; hit flat spot but rallied for third under these conditions last week; obvious claims of turning the tables on winner Gemini Man given she was beaten two necks and has a 4lb pull; 7lb claimer Kyle McHugh enlisted too. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
A three-time C&D winner for Jim Goldie; much better signs for her new yard with sixth of 11 in 1m4f Hamilton handicap 18 days ago when set a lot to do; well in the mix if building on that here. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
1m2f AW and 1m4f turf Flat winner (RPR 96); well below his best in that code for some time; well beaten on sole hurdles start in 2022; plenty to prove. |

31st Jul 2023 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Yard has won two of the last three runnings and his mark continues to fall; however, he struggled last year and was tailed off on last week's reappearance here; a first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
