18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All eight wins have been on AW but he's lost his way with heavy defeats at Newcastle (12.4f, Tapeta) and Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in last two runs; still lightly raced on turf but he needs a major revival back in this sphere. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner over 1m4f/1m5f here and Taryn Langley gets on well with him, but he has never attempted this far before and he must put an uncharacteristically poor effort at Newcastle 13 days ago behind him. |

21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |

Reliable 6yo, who won three times (1m4f/1m5f) during a busy spell this winter and he ran another solid race when runner-up at Wolverhampton (1m6f) last Friday; should go well again on this drop back in trip and he's respected with Hollie Doyle booked. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Very respectable 12-76 record for one who plies his trade in this sort of grade; vast majority of those wins came on AW but he can do it on turf and latest third over C&D (good to firm), while beaten a fair way, wasn't a bad effort; has dropped back down to his career-low mark. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-time AW scorer but sole turf win was three years ago; some creditable efforts on Polytrack for new yard this year but he's been out of sorts at Wolverhampton in last two runs; has some questions to answer and he looks opposable back on turf. |

12-74; sits below last winning mark and filled the runner-up berth at Lingfield (1m2f) on penultimate start; less productive in a change of headgear (visor) over 8.5f here latest; trainer also saddles Three on Thursday. |

Ended last year with a Wolverhampton win (9.4f, Tapeta) but he's finished down the field in two runs at Nottingham (1m2f/8.3f) this spring; wasn't beaten far last time and is effective at 1m2f on Polytrack but others are more persuasive. |

12th Apr 2024 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Both wins have come at Yarmouth (11.5f), the most recent from 4lb higher in May last year; may not have liked the soft ground at Doncaster (1m2f) last month, but still needs the return of the blinkers to have a positive effect. |

9st 3lb |
Held on to win at Kempton (2m, AW) in February and posted a solid effort when fourth at Southwell (2m, AW) 84 days ago; off since and this drop back in trip probably isn't ideal on his first outing on turf since September 2023. |

4th 5 (5) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 5 |

2lb higher than when narrowly returning to winning form at Kempton (2m, Polytrack) 13 days ago; that was in a steadily run race, but he has a good record here (4711134) including two wins over this trip; respected. |

Shaped quite nicely from off the pace in a Southwell handicap three weeks ago (1m6f); dangerous if he can build on it and he is a C&D winner on a dangerous mark. |

Multiple turf winner, most recently in 2021; 0-11 on AW but has dropped a long way in the weights since the autumn and he's been running well enough over 1m4f of late to think he shouldn't be far away. |

Now 10lb below his last winning mark (here, 9.5f); few positives to take from his efforts this year, beaten in excess of 9l (seventh of ten; 25-1) over 7f here latest; difficult to envisage a revival. |

8-59, although his last win came in a two-runner affair at Carlisle (2m1f; 2-5 favourite; all out) in December 2023; latest Carlisle sixth (beaten 15l; 50-1) not overly inspiring; others more obvious. |

Has won six times over hurdles, the latest a two-runner affair over C&D (good to soft) in December 2023; a couple of fair runs for this yard last year but pulled up when last seen out in January (reportedly never travelling); others appeal more. |

25th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |

On a long losing spell and form figures of 246 this term reflect that a turnaround of sorts is required; admittedly appears well treated if that resurgence materialises, being 7lb below last winning mark. |
