28th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Strong traveller with eight wins on his record, the latest off this mark in March (5f, AW); well beaten in three starts for his new stable though and enough to prove at present. |

5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time turf winner who scored at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March; however, he was soundly beaten on his final run for Tristan Davidson and it's been the same story on both outings for this stable. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Comfortably saw off six rivals at Lingfield (5f AW) in March but went up 7lb for that and then failed to figure at Wolverhampton and Chepstow; had some traffic issues on his stable debut last time but this is a deeper race and others are preferred. |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last two starts, rallying both times; on a two-year losing spell but remain 7lb below last winning mark; enters calculations. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Winless in two years but has slid to a handy mark and resumed in decent form; holds each-way claims but this is a stronger race than the Thirsk handicap in which he was a bit unlucky not to finish closer last time. |

7f specialist who made all at Doncaster (good to firm) in August and ran just as well when second at Thirsk three weeks later; edging up the weights but again likely to be thereabouts. |

9st 10lb |
First 7f win at Newmarket in May; just 1-22 on the AW but this surface suits and he was unlucky in his sole C&D run, when runner-up in September, and looks well worth another go back over this trip. |

All bar one of his seven wins has come over 6f, but he has finished runner-up in both goes over this trip including here; still 6lb above his last winning mark, though, so needs to find a bit more. |

She hasn't recaptured her best since returning to the AW in October; Rossa Ryan is a notable booking but there are risks attached now she's dropping back to 5f. |

28th Dec 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Hindered by traffic issues last time (AW); the 9yo hasn't won since 2024 but is nicely weighted, especially if Lewis Chalkley's 7lb claim is taken into account. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seemingly no longer relishes the fast surfaces of 2023's peak win and placed form, judged on June's last of ten at Wetherby (5.5f), and balance of this year's form limits her appeal anyway; cheekpieces return. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |

6f turf win two years ago remains her only success from 21 starts; not at her best in two AW runs earlier in the year and no better back on turf at Ripon a fortnight ago; down in weights but risky. |

Regained the winning thread at Hamilton (6f, good) last time and remains favourably treated on peak form; defied a 4lb higher mark over C&D last August and warrants respect. |

8st 13lb |
Couple of 6f wins at Brighton last term; proved resurgent over C&D (good to soft) last week, going down by only a whisker; now 2lb lower and due to go back up 6lb in future; leading player. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice here (6f) last year but on a downward trajectory since then; shaped okay here (fifth) on return from a 266-day absence in early September but his more recent AW efforts (6f-7f) have failed to offer further encouragement. |

Well treated on the pick of his form, the latest when second of eight off 7lb higher at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) in January, but not matched that form since and is just 2-32. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
None too consistent but both his wins have come over C&D and he does seem well suited by the track; on a good mark back from four months off and a big run would be no surprise, for all his propensity to miss the break is a nagging concern. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
No win since October 2024 (Newcastle); weakened quickly on turf return at Doncaster (7f) three weeks ago; the only real glimpse of life this year was when a never-nearer fourth at Southwell (5f; 25-1) in February; stablemate of East Tyrone. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Dual AW winner but he's generally struggled this year and was beaten 10l at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) last month; continues to drop down the weights but he has plenty to prove and is 0-11 on turf. |

Won twice in France (1m-1m1f) as a 3yo; poor form for this yard in 2023, dropping 40lb in the process; may come good at some point but 6f not sure to suit and he's usually slowly away. |
