18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three-time AW winner, two of them over C&D, and he's tumbling down the weights; one to keep an eye on in the betting but he's struggled to get competitive since December; major turnaround needed in a switch of headgear. |
8/1 |
|
6th 2 (5) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Triple AW winner but his last success was 19 months ago and he's struggled in four runs for current yard; mark is tumbling but he needs a big turnaround back up in trip; cheekpieces return. |
8/1 |
|
9th 6 (9) |
29th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Three-time AW winner who was also successful on turf at Musselburgh (7f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in August 2024, but he's struggled in three starts since joining this stable; dropped another 3lb. |

9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Both turf wins have been on good to firm, the most recent in a three-runner handicap at Leicester (5f) in June; didn't get the best of passages when fifth in a race won by Royal Duke over C&D two weeks ago but ground slower than good would be a slight concern. |
8/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Two wins last year (6f, good to firm/5f AW) in a visor and he was back on the scoresheet when taking three-runner handicap at Leicester (5f, good to firm) in June; two lesser runs followed but he's edging back down the weights. |
8/1 |
|
5th 8 (9) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Having dropped back down to his last winning mark he won well at Leicester (5f, good to firm) in June, but had just two rivals to beat; only sixth at Beverley (5f, good to firm) since and he's never won off a mark this high. |

On a competitive mark on his AW form for James Tate but yet to show as much on turf, including for this yard last twice. |
50/1 |
|
8th 1 (6) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
On a competitive mark on his AW form for James Tate; yet to show as much on turf, including on stable debut at Chester (6f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; stamina not assured either. |
20/1 |
|
10th 11 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Won four times on AW for James Tate; good second at Southwell (6f) when last seen in April; sold for 13,000gns later that month; switching to turf is the obvious concern as he has been unplaceed in three previous runs on grass. |

20th Oct 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Record of 3-27 with the last of those coming over this trip at Killarney in 2025 on soft; is now 4lb lower than for that win and has been consistent on last three starts; a player despite a wide draw. |
11/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 195y |
10st 0lb |
Three-time winner and 2lb beneath his last winning mark; beaten about 4l in his last two races at 1m1f so not in bad form and he might get a good pace to chase, which helps him. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won over 6f here for Julie Camacho last November and was in good form when last seen in early part of this year but, having changed hands for 1,800gns, this stable debut comes after a 226-day absence. |
25/1 |

5th 9 (3) |
5th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Triple Tapeta winner over 6f/7f; inconsistent since winning at Newcastle in November and was a beaten favourite in this grade latest; one of his better efforts would see him involved again. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All three wins at this track, one over 7f and two over 6f in 2025; respectable third over 6f three weeks ago; drops in trip and likely to give another good account. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark in 1m Windsor handicap last May but he's had only three runs since and has struggled in all of them; now back on his winning mark but he flopped when favourite at Leicester in April and needs a major revival after a break. |

15th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Modest form both starts (6f, AW/good) and could fare better for a switch to handicapping in future; dam was a Listed-placed 7f-7.5f winner (RPR 104), so it is likely that this seventh furlong will suit; less easily fancied than stablemate Our Havana. |
33/1 |
|
8th 6 (3) |
31st Aug 2023 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Having been outpaced he stayed on for a soundly beaten seven of 13 at 50-1 on recent debut at Wolverhampton (6f, AW); in good hands and could be much sharper for that experience, but he has plenty to find here. |
20/1 |

7th 11 (9) |
14th Aug 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

80,000euros half-brother to winners Archies Lad (7f; RPR 74), Canzone (5f AW; 71) and You Saw Brigadoon (8.6f/1m2f AW; 63); dam Listed-placed 7f-7.5f winner (104), half-sister to 1m Group 1 winner Balisada; stablemate of Salamanca Lad and market should be informative on debut. |

12th Sep 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Some promise on his debut in July (6f, good) but backward steps in two runs since; not bred to need this trip but he makes his nursery debut at a realistic level. |

8th 8 (11) |
14th Aug 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

22-1 in two 6f novice events at Windsor (good) last month; showed some promise when fifth of 13 on his debut but was well below that form last time and others are preferred. |

11th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

6f Polytrack and 7f Tapeta winner; largely consistent earlier in the campaign but the handicapper looks to have gained control on his last couple of starts. |
11/2 |

8th 5 (4) |
9th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

C&D win in July; couldn't muster sufficient pace in a 6f handicap at Southwell two weeks ago (tried in cheekpieces which are now left off); not discounted back up in distance. |
9/2 |

6th 6 (6) |
26th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well on top at the finish in a 7f handicap at Wolverhampton four weeks ago; 3lb rise not excessive and cheekpieces could help; will need luck in running back at 6f but he's capable. |

19th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner; completed hat-trick in 1m handicaps in the summer, and ran creditably again when fourth of eight over 1m2f at Sandown last month; just as effective on AW; should give another good account of himself. |
9/2 |
|
4th 2 (2) |
18th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner; completed a hat-trick in 1m handicaps this summer, the last leg at this track; disappointing at Haydock next time but better than ever when beaten a head at Southwell (1m, AW) 16 days later; all his improvement has been at 1m, having tried 1m2f twice in the spring before he was tongue tied, so this step back up in trip asks the key question. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (9) |
26th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Completed a hat-trick in 1m handicaps this summer but he came up short in his bid for a four-timer at Haydock 16 days ago; promise in one C&D run in March; another career best required to win. |

20th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Has bettered novice/maiden form in nuseries and shaped at Wolverhampton last time as though he'd be suited by the return to this trip; claims with Hollie Doyle up. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (10) |
3rd Oct 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Well beaten in his first three starts but there was more promise when third of seven in a Brighton nursery three weeks ago; wide draw back at 5f though and he'll need further improvement to win. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
11th Sep 2023 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Struggled in his three maiden/novice events, most recently when 11th of 13 at Wolverhampton (6f, AW; 150-1) last month; still early days but he needs to do much better on this switch to a nursery. |

Half-sister to a Listed sprint winner but she made a low-key start in a small field at Yarmouth (5f, soft) in April; goes up in trip after a break but she needs to leave her initial form a long way behind. |
