30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
All 13 wins have come elsewhere but he does have course form and he did so well when going close at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) last week; however, he's now 6lb higher than his September win which might be a step too far. |
9/2 |

2nd 9 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 20y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Rounded off last season with a game win here (1m Class 5, good to soft; from 4lb lower), that his 13th win; struggled in a competitive Sunday Series Handicap at Musselburgh 24 days ago, and it might be a similar story here; stablemate of Pearl Eye and Motawaared. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
11yo who was as good as ever last season, winning three times, including at Ayr in September when last season; this two-time course winner is not ruled out on his return but there's a suspicion he'll improve for the run. |

9st 3lb |
Course win last September off this mark (8.3f, good to soft); never a threat over that trip here last month but he's a possible reviver in a race lacking depth. |

16th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |

Just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to soft) last September; rarely seen on fast ground and although he has run well on it, he seems to needs a softer surface these days. |

22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Seemingly back in good form when second at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) in May but has quickly gone off the boil again since; on a very good mark now but needs combination of refitted cheekpieces and first-time tongue-tie to give him a shove forward. |

20th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Showed useful form for previous yard; 0-11 for current stable but last few efforts, most recently going close off this mark at Leicester (7f) last week, suggest his turn is near; appears to have a leading chance (due to go up 3lb from tomorrow). |
7/2 |

6th 8 (9) |
29th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Capable of smart form when trained by Charles Hills; struggled initially for this yard but there was much more encouragement off his much-reduced mark at Ayr last week (1m, good to soft), keeping on strongly having met trouble in running; can't discount now he's found his level. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Hamilton (1m3f, good) on May 3 and again had plenty in hand when following up at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) last week, when switched to front-running tactics; this thriving 8yo has strong claims under 4lb penalty. |
6/5 |
|
1st 5 (4) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
2.25l behind Spirit Catcher here last month (1m1f, good) and he is 2lb worse off with that rival today; did win well at Hamilton (1m3f, good) 18 days ago, however, and likely to be in the thick of it again. |
9/4 |
|
1st 8 (4) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Runner-up three consecutive times on Tapeta in March (1m-1m2f) and returned to turf with pretty good third at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) on Wednesday; should be fine over this longer trip; probably won't be far away. |

9st 4lb |
9-96; just failed to reel in Wyvern over 7f here in December but laboured since; weakened, well down the field at Ripon (1m, good; beaten 17l) latest; is fairly treated but the chances are that age is beginning to catch up with him. |
10/1 |

12th 5 (5) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

Into the veteran stage but on a competitive mark on form as recent as December; recent Redcar run should have sharpened him up but others may have his measure for win purposes. |

Three-time Musselburgh winner (1m-1m1f; beat Tacitus by a neck last August); mostly struggling this season, albeit did shape a bit better when fifth (beaten 2l) to Zumaaty and Temper Trap at Hamilton last week; stablemate of Onthebunny. |

Veteran with nine wins to his name, latest of them over C&D (patiently ridden; led near finish) in August 2023, but 0-10 this season and he was well held on his most recent outing. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Highly fruitful in his two and a half years with this yard, including two wins (Flat/hurdles) this February/March; needs to bounce back from a rare flop but the chief concern is his 0-15 record on Flat turf. |

8th Dec 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
All three wins at Kempton (7f/1m) for Tom Clover and placed a couple of times on turf for this yard during the autumn; didn't enjoy the clearest of runs when ninth of 12 here (7f) five weeks ago, but wouldn't have won anyway and still to prove he can act on Tapeta. |

3rd Nov 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Three-time Kempton winner for Tom Clover and has tumbled down the handicap on turf this year; a bit higher in the weights back on AW but has been showing enough on soft/heavy turf to suggest he's worth considering. |

Eight-race maiden; suggested his turn might be near when second under very positive ride at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) in July but two lesser efforts have followed, the latter after he raced too freely in first-time cheekpieces (now removed); has a point to prove. |

20th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Has some respectable form over 6f/7f on turf/AW this term, including Redcar win, but is looking a rather exposed 3yo now; chance partly depends on how well she responds to new headgear. |

6th 10 (8) |
3rd Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Stretched by 1m on turf 11 days ago but she'd been on an upward trajectory beforehand; likely the best is still to come from her. |

11th 5 (10) |
22nd Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Not yet fully exposed after only seven runs and yet to run a bad race; shaped as though well worth a crack at 1m when keeping-on fourth at Wolverhampton (7f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) three weeks ago and soft ground won't bother her; high on the list. |

With blinkers added he finished runner-up from similar marks at Doncaster (1m, good) and Nottingham (1m, heavy) in the summer, but twice well held since (back in cheekpieces last time); now 0-13 and others are preferred. |

Disappointed on latest outing six weeks ago and now 0-12 but lost out only by a neck off today's mark at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy; also suited by good) two starts ago and has obvious claims if back at that level here; blinkered for last three runs; cheekpieces refitted today. |

12th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 5 |

0-11 and needs to prove he can get the job done but he's returned to form in these blinkers the last twice, finishing second at Doncaster (1m, good) and Nottingham (1m, heavy); can give another good account. |
