18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Placed twice since dropped back to 1m last month, more recently when very close third (just behind The Sweet Escape) at Leicester (1m, good to firm) nine days ago; competes off same mark here; big player if new cheekpieces have any positive effect. |
5/1 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win since 2024 but he got right back on track when second of ten in 1m Ripon handicap two weeks ago; up 2lb but well in the mix. |

2nd 9 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Last turf win was here (1m2f, good to soft; from 6lb higher) in June 2024; fair third at Wolverhampton (8.5f; 10-1) on penultimate start but took a backward step at Doncaster (1m2f) subsequently; easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

Winning hurdler who is 1-16 on the Flat and went close over C&D in May when 5lb higher; hard to dismiss despite some leffer efforts since then; goes on all ground. |

12th Jan 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Reliable as a 2yo, winning Bath maiden in September and running creditably after three months off when fourth in nursery here on Boxing Day; both those runs were over 5f but he stays 6f well; unlikely to be far away. |
7/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
26th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Was on the go early and fully exposed now (at 5f-1m); stiff 5f was fine when off the mark at Bath in the autumn but this will be more about speed and he's some way down the pecking order back from three months off. |

slowly into stride, held up in rear, headway and in touch with leaders over 4f out, keeping on 2f out, went second inside final furlong, no match for winner |

5th 6 (1) |
8th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark in a lower-grade nursery here (7f) last month, staying on nicely in a well-run race; fair run at Carlisle last week and he looks ready for 1m; not discounted. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (3) |
31st Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His form has been up and down but he won at Newcastle (7f, AW) recently on his third nursery start and has also shown promise on turf; can be bang there if on another going day. |

10th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Has failed to go on since sent into handicaps; tried in blinkers when only fifth of seven at Thirsk (6f) 22 days ago; others appeal more. |
16/1 |
|
5th 9 (3) |
18th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Five-race maiden who has failed to improve in two nursery attempts, both at about 7f in cheekpieces; chance depends on how well he responds to change of headgear and drop back in trip. |
20/1 |
|
6th 11 (11) |
31st Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Beaten about 9l when upped in trip and seventh of 12 on recent nursery debut at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm); however, that doesn't tell the full story as he got behind after switching to the inside from the widest draw, and the prominent-racers dominated; could be more competitive here. |

Has improved with each of his three runs and was third of eight in a Thirsk novice (7f, good) most recently; his dam was a Group 3 winner and he could continue to progress now moving into handicaps. |

18th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (1) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper. |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing. |
25/1 |
