3yo who reappeared with a win on handicap debut at Newbury (1m, good) in July and was a good second there (1m2f, soft) three weeks later behind a well-treated winner; open to further improvement; on the shortlist. |

19th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Won three times last season, including twice in 1m turf handicaps (good/soft); good second in 1m handicaps at Newmarket (good to firm) and Wetherby (good) on her last two outings but this is a rise in grade. |

11th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won three times last season, including twice in 1m turf handicaps (good or slower); no problem with faster ground, as when second of 13 at Newmarket 23 days ago; should give her running once more. |

Midfield (never landed a blow) in Class 2 event at Chester on seasonal debut; remains on career-high mark but this return to Class 5 is a plus; has done all her winning at this level. |

17th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has patchy profile but he put in a dominant display at Kempton (1m) in October and he had some traffic issues in the closing stages when a respectable sixth over C&D last time; still looks on a workable mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid. |

13th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner; off the mark for this yard when beating 12 rivals at Windsor in July (1m, soft); not so good in Doncaster classified event four weeks ago but this return to Class 6 will help and he has the ability to feature. |

9th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |

High in the weights after three wins this year but not disgraced the last twice and claiming 3lb through William Carver can aid his cause; won't be far away. |

31st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins this year, the latest at Newmarket this month (1m, good); solid effort in a Racing League handicap 16 days ago; not handicapped out of it on last year's best but a lower draw would have been preferable for one that likes to race prominently. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Two 1m2f wins at Ripon (good to soft/soft) this season and he's also effective here and on good ground; however, he's been below par on his last two outings and needs a much bigger performance today. |
25/1 |
|
7 (10) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Gained fourth Ripon success when making all over 1m2f (soft) in July; 4l second at Chester (1m2f, good) next time and perhaps a drop back to 1m didn't suit when only sixth of seven back at Ripon 19 days ago. |
14/1 |

6th 3 (6) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Comes into this as good as ever, gaining his fourth course success here (1m2f, soft) last month and finishing second of nine off this mark at Chester (1m2f, good) a week later; he is another for whom dropping in trip poses a question, though. |

22nd Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

6th Mar 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ran his best race for this yard when third of ten at Wolverhampton on Monday (6f), leading in the straight but hanging sharply to his left and causing chaos in behind; stays this longer trip but he'll need to keep straighter to win. |

0-14 since successful at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) on his second start as a 2yo when trained by Kevin Ryan; first-time blinkers join the tongue-tie, but this looks an inadequate test for him now. |

Won off 6lb higher at Epsom (8.5f, good) last August but he's been out sorts since then and has been beaten 12l or more in his three runs for new yard; AW record now stands at 0-9 and he has a lot to prove. |

His two efforts on the AW stand head and shoulders above his six starts on turf, winning here (8.6f) 11 months ago and finishing third of ten at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in June; possibilities. |

Lightly raced 3yo who won 8.6f AW novice last November and drops back in trip on his third outing for this yard; however, he's hard to fancy based on what he's shown the last twice (1m2f/1m3f). |

Dropped 26lb in the weights in six runs for new stable since February; perhaps the addition of blinkers will help but she's not a solid option in her current form. |

Sole win came for Richard Hughes in a Wolverhampton novice (9.5f; 11-8 favourite) in July 2023; hasn't offered much in five starts - over a range of distances (1m-1m4f) - for this yard; competes from an easing mark. |

3rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Novice winner here (9.5f) for Richard Hughes in the summer of 2023, but has shown little since returning for this yard in February; the outside stall won't help his cause either. |
