14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins last season, the first a dead-heat over C&D in July (good to firm); rather patchy form this season, best run when third at Pontefract in April (1m, good); a possible on second run back after wind op. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Had wind surgery (his third) since last run; form at Pontefract features a success last August (off 2lb higher; one of three wins under Charli Parker) and best effort this season; record of 0-19 when racing above Class 6 is the negative. |

A dual 1m2f scorer in 2025; back to form when third of nine in 1m Pontefract handicap ten days ago so ought to be thereabouts eased 1lb. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Made all for his last three wins, the latest at Bath in May; never better than when beaten a nose in four-runner race at Nottingham (again 1m6f on good to firm) two weeks ago, so he needs respect. |
5/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his fourth success when making all at Bath (1m6f, good to firm) last month and ran another respectable race when a 2l fourth of seven over this C&D 25 days ago; contender. |

Back in excellent form after 12 months off and landed 1m6f handicap at Bath nine days ago; up 3lb but this gutsy front-runner is not taken lightly. |

9st 11lb |
Resumed winning ways over 1m3f here in February and in good form since, not seen to ideal effect when fifth of nine in 1m4f Goodwood handicap 19 days ago; she ought to be thereabouts. |
10/1 |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Consistent AW handicapper and a seven-time winner in that sphere; only 1-9 on turf and appears to have a difficult task off current mark, especially in this grade, returned to this sphere. |
16/1 |

3rd 5 (5) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Tough mare who has been in good form on the AW since December (13341333), the wins coming at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) and here (1m3f); return to this trip should suit and unlikely to be far away. |

Record is 1-16; respectable fourth in C&D handicap most recently; needs a bigger effort to win on these terms. |

3rd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won off 5lb higher at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) last August but she has mixed record since and was beaten 18l at Brighton (1m4f, good) last month; blinkers now return and she comes with risks. |

30th Aug 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-race maiden; ran big race from the front when close second on turf here (1m1f) two starts ago, but was well beaten over 1m2f a week later and her tendency to race too freely remains a worry; others preferred. |
8/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
19th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Comfortably her best effort this term when going down by a neck to the reopposing Native Melody at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) last weekend; did race quite freely in the blinkers again, though, and could do with settling better now stepping back up slightly in trip. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
12th Aug 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Poor this year, rather taking off in front in first-time blinkers (retained) upped to 1m2f last time; maybe similar tactics on tonight's faster ground will help but she needs to be more amenable for a yard also responsible for Angel De Luz. |

8th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Hinted at promise in three AW runs for Hugo Palmer but trailed home in two handicaps (AW/turf) for David Loughnane in the spring; tailed off again on Doncaster return for new yard three weeks ago and plenty to prove at present; cheekpieces go on for the first time here. |

19th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Hinted at promise in three AW runs for Hugo Palmer but trailed home in two handicaps (AW/turf) for David Loughnane in the spring; has changed stable again ahead of this first outing for 107 days; yard also runs Star Start; betting perhaps the best guide to expectations. |

10th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Won low-grade Flat handicap in 2023 and placed in juvenile hurdle later that year; back from long absence with respectable second of six on point debut at Dalton Park (2m6f, good) in March and has possibilities here if that run brought him on. |

20th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark at the sixth attempt when upped to 1m at Redcar (good) last month; refused to enter stalls and withdrawn at Doncaster seven days later (4-1 at the time); has shown some promise on soft ground here and this 3yo is a strong candidate if repeating the Redcar form. |
