17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Six wins (latest in February) from 24 AW starts but 0-10 on turf; Newmarket 15 days ago saw first turf race since 2023 and he came last of eight. |

8th 8 (1) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Six wins from his 24 AW starts, the latest in February, but 0-9 on turf and he was last seen in this sphere in 2023; fit from AW action (well beaten in hot race last time) but other options seem more likely. |
25/1 |

13th 10 (2) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Six wins from his 23 AW starts, the latest at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) in February; has continued in good form when fourth at Lingfield and Kempton on last two starts, but he may again be vulnerable today. |

28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Multiple AW winner who should give his running but may struggle to defy current mark (career-high one) and reverse placings with Paradias; finished about 2l behind that rival in this contest 12 months ago and at Wolverhampton latest start. |
10/1 |
|
2 (3) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Completed an AW double in May when last seen and gained the latest success over C&D, taking record in this sphere to 9-30; likely player provided he returns in similar form. |
13/2 |
|
1 (2) |
28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner who comes into this off the back off an easy success over three rivals at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) last Thursday (sixth win there); not quite sure what he achieved, though, and his penalty puts him back on a career-high mark. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won this race off 1lb lower 12 months ago on stable debut; a market check is advised but he was tailed off on this year's two Flat starts and pulled up on his recent hurdle debut; a major turnaround is needed. |
20/1 |

14th Jul 2025 Good 2m 2f 110y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Useful at around 1m4f on the Flat at his best but ran as though something was amiss on both outings in the spring and it takes a leap of faith to support him on this hurdling debut; blinkers the headgear of choice today. |
6/4 |
|
11th 3 (6) |
11th May 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Probably acts on Tapeta; won two 1m4f turf handicaps last April/August before his form tapered away; tailed off on reappearance four weeks ago. |

30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
5-19 on AW and 0-9 on turf; twice close up over 1m4f on turf last year, including off this mark at Chester, but is also a dual 1m6f winner on AW and has at least one piece of 2m form in that sphere; a case can be made if he's tuned up sufficiently after 259 days off; the market may guide. |
14/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |

Below best at York in June and since left David O'Meara for 20,000gns; an assured stayer who is capable off this mark and could have a part to play. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Didn't run badly in a low-grade Flat marathon last month but he ended the last jumps season with two disappointing runs (both 2m4f) and has a bit more to prove than some of these. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 8 (1) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 139y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Well beaten over hurdles on his last two starts but hasn't run badly on his last two Flat outings (1m4f/2m, AW) and his trainer has won two of the last six runnings of this race; not discounted. |
14/1 |
|
9th 3 |
11th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Scored twice over hurdles (at about 2m4f) in 2024-25 but has failed to fire this term and beat just two in 2m4f Sedgefield handicap hurdle ten days ago; others appeal more. |

5th Jun 2024 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
The lack of any win since 2021 sees him down to his lowest mark since handicap debut in 2019; stacks of form from 2023 gives him a big chance in theory and he wasn't far away in February three starts ago; while hard to dismiss, it's also hard to make him the percentage call. |
7/1 |

5th 11 (1) |
11th May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Now a stone below last winning mark; however, he's far from solid on 2024 AW form and losing spell goes back to 2021; by no means certain to take advantage of the drop in weights. |

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. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time turf winner who last scored at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm; has won at this trip) two years ago; went close on two occasions at 1m3f (visored) during latest AW campaign but his latest effort when last of ten at Southwell (1m4f; raced freely) wasn't an ideal springboard for this switch back to grass; blinkers (has won in them before) go back on. |
8/1 |
|
10th 10 (9) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Just 1-30 on the AW, but the win came over C&D and he was only beaten a head by Jack Andrea here (1m3f) last month; 5lb pull makes him a player even though his losing run is mounting up. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 (9) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Only 1-29 on AW but gained the win at Southwell (in 2022) and is currently in a consistent vein of form, mainly here and most recently at Chelmsford; frame possibilities. |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Hard to recommend on recent efforts, but has dropped 7lb lower than when gaining his second C&D success back in February; worth a second look with a visor given a try, especially if attracting support. |
9/1 |
|
10th 8 (6) |
26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Won at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in February but he's not fired in three starts since July and seems out of sorts at present; only of interest with market support. |
25/1 |
|
5 (9) |
5th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
This year's win was on Polytrack at Kempton (1m4f) in February and he's 2lb lower today, having gone off the boil in his two runs this summer; has never won beyond 1m4f and he last ran on ground softer than good in 2021. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
24 visits to Newcastle have yielded nine wins, seven over C&D; the latest came on New Year's Day when beating five rivals; fifth of 12 at Southwell since and could better that performance now back here, but there's a suspicion today's contest will prove too competitive. |
25/1 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Enhanced his outstanding Newcastle record (all nine AW wins there) on New Year's Day when fending off five rivals; only 2lb higher and he'll probably be ridden positively as usual; has only raced twice here (unplaced). |
