29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Placed in sole 1m attempt, raced over shorter otherwise; ran respectably last time in a Leicester classified event he'd landed 12 months earlier; hasn't won a handicap since 2023. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 6 (13) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All five wins have been on turf and latest was in this race last year; his form nosedived at Doncaster last month but he has a striking record at this track and is versatile ground-wise; big player if he can bounce back. |
13/2 |
|
11th 12 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All five wins have been on turf, the last three over this trip; only 2lb higher than for his latest success (June 2025) and he reappeared with a promising effort over 6f at Leicester (good to firm) last month; looks interesting on this step back up in trip and he's versatile ground-wise. |

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 |
|
2nd 2 (8) |
10th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
dwelt start, in rear, headway against far rail from 2f out, went third final 110yds, kept on, just failed |
9/2 |
|
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. |

19th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Best run for current stable when third in first-time cheekpieces at Brighton (7f, good to firm) last month; 1lb lower here but shade disappointing back at Brighton recently; now tongue tied; others appeal more. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Just one win from 14 starts but that came off 2lb higher at Epsom (7f) last August and she returned to form with good third over C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago; responded well to first-time cheekpieces in that race and has claims if she can build on that. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 7 (3) |
20th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
A 7f winner in 2023 for Ali Stronge but she has failed to build on her debut for her current yard on two starts since, latest when ninth of 13 at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month; down 3lb but needs to step up. |

17th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Sole win was at Redcar in June 2023 (7f, good); beaten a nose in same Redcar handicap this year and went down by a short head in a C&D fillies' handicap last time; each-way contender. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
5th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

towards rear, smooth headway on near side of group 2f out, led 1f out, kept on inside final furlong, no extra and headed towards finish |
11/4 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
21st Jun 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Just one win from 13 starts but that came over C&D (good) last June and she's finished placed in two of her three runs this season; on same mark as for her staying-on third at Doncaster (6f, good) last time and she's respected back up in trip. |

20th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ten-race maiden but he has a solid record in handicaps this year including an eyecatching second at Catterick (7f, soft) on his penultimate run; same mark here and he shouldn't be far away. |
16/1 |
|
5th 11 (6) |
10th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

2nd 2 (1) |
23rd Sep 2023 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
held up in rear, outpaced and struggling 4f out, still plenty to do when switched to near side over 2f out, wandered around over 1f out, headway inside final furlong, went third final 110yds, went second towards finish, nearest finish |

13th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
His heyday was two winters back but he still won last July (1m1f on turf) and is often thereabouts, including on Tapeta; not totally ruled out despite the 106-day absence. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Landed a sixth success when winning a 12-runner handicap at Redcar (1m1f, good to soft) in July; kept at in when fourth at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) under a penalty six days later and excuses both starts since; very much respected. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 4 (9) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Has won three times over 7f here; best run this year when winning over 1m1f at Redcar three runs back; stamina to prove on first run at 1m4f (can pull hard). |

6th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
2-45, with the latest win coming at Bath (5.5f, good) last July; tailed off on his return at Salisbury (5f, good to firm; reported to have had a respiratory issue) two weeks ago; has form over this far but others are currently preferred. |
20/1 |
|
3 (5) |
23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has a poor strike-rate and is the only runner who lacks recent match practice, having been absent since last October; best watched unless the market speaks favourably. |
33/1 |
|
5th 9 (8) |
31st Oct 2024 Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Had a good record at Bath until tailed off here (5f, heavy) last time in first-time blinkers; however, the ground may have been too much and he's back in cheekpieces today; has shown promise on soft going; could go well. |

4th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Maiden who's been turned over as favourite on four of his last six starts; pulled hard/hung left at Brighton last time and has the ability to win this in a first-time tongue-tie but there can only be so many excuses. |
12/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
25th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Has ability as he showed when second of 11 in the first-time hood at Yarmouth (1m, good to soft) last month, but he didn't back it up there (7f, soft) 12 days ago; now 0-11 and not quite sure what to expect. |
2/1 |
|
3 (5) |
13th Jun 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

Maiden (0-10); runner-up on both visits to Yarmouth, including over 1m here (in a first-time hood) three weeks ago; shouldn't have any issue with the forecast conditions, so likely to have a say in the outcome. |

2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Versatile regarding the ground but a respectable effort at Brighton (1m, good to firm) in July has been followed by two lesser ones and although temptingly treated, he needs much more for the adding of a tongue-tie. |
12/1 |

8th 3 (7) |
15th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Just one win from his 20 starts but that came over C&D, and Tapeta brings out the best in him; not disgraced on last month's reappearance at Bath and he's down to a handy mark; of interest now back here. |
16/1 |
|
8th 5 (3) |
22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Looks interesting on his second at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in November but he took backward steps on final two runs last year; overall record is now 1-19 and he's yet to be placed in seven runs on turf; has work to do on return. |

0-9 for current stable but has become well treated, having gained all wins off higher marks; shaped encouragingly at Newcastle (7f) most recently while leaving the impression this return to 1m will suit; not ruled out. |

Triple winner at up to 1m, including on Tapeta; back on a handy mark and she showed signs of a revival last time, so not written off. |
