3rd Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Inconsistent and regressive this year but down the weights and he was third of 13 off this mark over C&D last month; would have been closer granted a clear run and can be involved if he's on another going day. |

5lb lower than for his turf win last August; mixed bag this year but he's fully effective under these conditions; others still appeal more. |

7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Well treated on her old form but last win was over two years ago and she has form figures of 77870096 in the last 13 months; handles most ground but she has plenty to prove and needs a big turnaround. |
10/1 |

21st Apr 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Major player on her 2023 form but she went the wrong way last year; there was more encouragement in her midfield finish in a 0-72 handicap at Doncaster three weeks ago (5f, good), however, and she's considered back in these calmer waters. |

1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well suited by conditions; made a promising stable debut 14 days ago, forcing Em Four to pull out all the stops, and that was after a 702-day absence; has to back it up but he will be a danger to all if he does. |
6/1 |

2nd 7 (5) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
This is his first run since April 2024 and it remains to be seen how much ability he retains; however, the handicapper has given this two-time C&D winner a chance, and he's not ruled out on his first run for John Ryan (has left John Butler); watch the betting. |

On a three-year losing spell and has done his winning at 6f; however, ran encouragingly (close third) at Kempton on most recent 1m attempt, so can't be comfortably dismissed. |

Winless since 2024 and winless in sprints since 2023; said to have hung left when well beaten on his return to turf seven weeks ago and only holds outside claims. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Hindered by traffic issues last time (AW); the 9yo hasn't won since 2024 but is nicely weighted, especially if Lewis Chalkley's 7lb claim is taken into account. |

Sole win from 39 starts was in June 2022 and he's been beaten 13l or more in his last four runs; opposable. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |

Of interest on last year's best but he ended 2024 with a whimper and neither AW run this March suggested he was the answer. |

10th Aug 2023 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |

Half-brother to the yard's Group 2 winner (2yo, soft) Barraquero; has achieved little to date, including on his handicap debut/comeback (having been gelded) a fortnight ago; is hard to recommend. |
50/1 |

8th 4 (7) |
26th Jul 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Unexposed as a handicap debutant having his first run for 300 days, but debut at Ffos Las (6f, good to soft) was easily the best of his three runs as 2yo; gelded after latest; it's too early for him to be dismissed. |

C&D winner; made good progress in 2024 and he made a satisfactory return from a lengthy absence at Southwell three weeks ago; dropped 2lb and could take a step forward this time. |

5th 1 (6) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

Triple AW winner who was placed off 3lb higher at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in October 2024 but he's been on the sidelines since; bit to prove after a long absence but he was progressive during his last campaign and he needs checking in market. |

Both her wins for Ed Walker came over 6f at Leicester on ground slower than good, the second off this mark last October; two runs for current stable have come over 6f here, not doing enough on either occasion to make her of significant interest today. |
