18th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Three wins for Ed Dunlop; sold for 5,000gns last October; denied a run on several occasions on her stable debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) 17 days ago; will be suited by the step back up in trip and not out of this. |

1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Patchy during a limited campaign last year for Ed Dunlop; wins as a 3yo came on soft turf and this trip looks a bare minimum for her new yard on comeback. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins (1m4f/11.6f) on slow ground last year and latest was off 1lb lower; returned to form when runner-up at Ripon (1m4f, good to soft) in May but she's hard to predict and failed to beat a rival at Carlisle in June; comes with risks attached after a break and this is competitive. |

28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Returned to form to win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last month, scoring at that venue for a third time; has shown ability on turf and is not ruled out but his 0-6 record on grass isn't particularly convincing. |
4/1 |

Dual course winner last year who's slid to a dangerous mark, being 5lb lower than when favourite for a similar race over C&D in January; said to have hung left when below market expectations last time and goes back to cheekpieces from a hood. |

9th Sep 2024 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Placed in low-grade handicaps on the Flat and bettered his disappointing hurdle debut when ridden much more positively at Uttoxeter (2m, good; first-time visor) in July, finishing third behind Torrent; has a fighting chance if he handles the slower ground. |
9/1 |

3rd 12 |
28th Jul 2024 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Modest maiden on the Flat; should have the stamina for hurdling but was tailed off at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) on first attempt at this discipline; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time visor. |

No wins in 11 on the Flat but mostly consistent and he stayed 1m4f; could make a hurdler. |

24th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Began the year with three heavy defeats but has posted a couple of solid placed efforts over 1m4f since wearing blinkers; beaten too far out to blame the trip alone on sole 1m6f attempt; although he doesn't look the most straightforward, he's of interest. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (7) |
18th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Began the year with three heavy defeats but blinkers were added over C&D ten days ago (good to firm) and he ran much better, finishing second of seven behind a well-supported handicap debutant from a Newmarket yard; head carriage was a bit ungainly on that occasion but he'll be in the mix with a repeat. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 (7) |
8th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Made the frame in four consecutive nurseries on the AW last autumn, but has shown little in three starts since returning from a gelding operation; may not have coped with the soft ground when beaten miles at Redcar (1m6f) last time, but still hard to warm to; blinkers are given a go. |

9st 11lb |
Steady progress in maidens, runner-up at this course the final time; last of three in Salisbury nursery (again over 1m) since but gave the impression this longer trip is now needed; possibilities back here. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Made all to win the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 6lb lower mark; followed up at Beverley in July and only just denied in his hat-trick bid when last seen 309 days ago; races off the same mark here and there should be more to come this year. |
9/2 |

17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
In better form on his last three starts, following a Beverley second (1m4f, good to firm) with fast ground 1m4f wins when racing prominently at both Pontefract and back at Beverley; up 4lb; shouldn't have a problem with this slightly longer trip; big player. |
7/2 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Better since upped to this trip, building on his C&D second when off the mark off 2lb lower six weeks ago (made all); suited by the way things panned out at Pontefract but could yet be capable of better. |

2nd Feb 2024 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Turf winner at about 7f; has raced over a range of trips for new connections (1m, 1m4f and 7f) and didn't get much luck in running at Wolverhampton two weeks ago; worth another go at 1m but is quite exposed and unraced here. |
