3rd Jan 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Ran as though something was amiss four weeks ago but is accustomed to stronger races than this and is now 3lb lower than when placed for Joe Bradnam at Kempton (1m3f) in September; player if back on song. |

25th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Well handicapped on best form but is far from solid judged on his two efforts this winter for new stable; best watched unless the market speaks positively. |
25/1 |
|
10th 2 (4) |
8th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Course winner who also made all at Chester (1m4f) off 5lb higher at the start of last summer, but he made an inauspicious start for Lisa Williamson when last of seven over 1m6f here in December. |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Had plenty of Flat racing and won five times; 0-6 as a hurdler and after his fourth to The Resdev Tyke on Boxing Day he ran no race at Sedgefield; others preferred. |
16/1 |
|
7th 1 |
4th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Five-time Flat winner who is 0-5 over hurdles but ran pretty well when fourth of 11 at Wetherby (2m, soft) on Boxing Day on his first handicap start in this code; today's extra yardage looks a plus and he's in with a chance. |

13th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
1-4 on turf in France but regressive in seven starts on the AW for this yard; returns to grass after five months off and he may need it. |

10th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Won on turf in France as a 2yo but hasn't gone on from a promising stable debut at Wolverhampton just over a year ago, finishing 11l behind Western Stars when fourth of five there (1m6f) last month; opposed. |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Reliable staying handicapper who hit new heights when winning in grand style at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f) last time; more is required in his first Group race but he needs some respect following such a career best. |
9/1 |
|
1st 4 |
1st Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 97y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Solid 2024 campaign included fourth of 18 in this race (good to firm; fine on soft) off same mark as today; made a satisfactory reappearance this April and, likely to build on that, looks a strong each-way candidate. |

21st Apr 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Has often blown the start and he refused to jump away at all without the usual blinkers (back on here) last month; is capable off this mark but a lot will hinge on his mood and how he handles the stalls. |
16/1 |

14th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Handles Tapeta but is best known for his Chelmsford work and has three poor efforts to his name here, including one at a short price; is long odds-on to blow the start too, so doesn't come without risk, going without headgear for the first time in ages. |

2nd Dec 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Well held in three runs for this yard (also saddle two others) in the summer and goes without a tongue-tie for the first time since debut back from a break; potentially on a fair mark now and worth a look in the market. |
8/1 |

14th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Turf maiden winner a year ago and a close third from 3lb higher at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in January on his final start for Sylvester Kirk; held in both starts since returning for this yard in May with cheekpieces applied, but the drop in class offers hope. |

7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Last three wins, including two for Ryan Kavanagh last spring, have come over further; back in form when arguably an unlucky loser at Wolverhampton on Tuesday (extended 2m) and his claims are obvious off the same mark. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Generally disappointing since winning twice (once over C&D) last May but encountered traffic when fifth (behind Belle Of KT) over 1m6f here a fortnight ago and continues to lurk on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |
5/1 |
