27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Slightly resurgent on reappearance but needs to build on that effort and remains far from solid on his form for current stable; was a useful sort for previous yard. |

6th 4 (2) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Useful performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off in his last five starts, including on hurdling debut in August; has plenty to prove on his return and last win was almost two years ago. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off on his last four starts (blinkered on latest); perhaps he'll be sweetened up by hurdling but he carries obvious risks. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Multiple AW winner; belied his huge odds with close third at Newmarket on belated return to turf last time but this is a step back up in grade; 0-6 in this sphere and others look preferable. |
20/1 |

3rd 1 (7) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-time AW winner who is 5lb lower than when winning at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last November; however, this is his first run since January and he was well beaten at Ascot in May 2024 on his last encounter with turf; 0-5 on grass and others have less to prove. |

4th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
A tongue-tie was added to cheekpieces when off the mark for this yard, getting up late at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) in July; weak in the market under a penalty when beaten 5l in amateur riders' event over C&D (good) the following week; combination of this trip and slow ground will be new to him. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Ex-Ian Williams; first win for current yard with first-time tongue-tie at Epsom last week (1m4f, good to firm), quickening up well after not getting best of runs; could go well with a 4lb penalty although below par two previous runs at 1m6f. |

30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Signed off for Ian Williams with below-par AW run in the autumn and finished last on both turf starts for new stable this year; on good mark now but needs first-time tongue-tie to aid a return to form. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
6-24 on AW but 0-13 on turf; returned to form when second over C&D (good; Class 3) two weeks ago but he dictated steady fractions from the front and it probably flatters him; still commands some attention. |
7/2 |

2nd 6 (2) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
6-24 on AW but 0-12 on turf; recent efforts have been underwhelming and he's probably better suited by 1m4f; not the percentage call. |
20/1 |
|
5th 3 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Six-time AW winner but he's 0-11 on turf and has struggled at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) and Hamilton (1m5f, good) in last two runs; now drops back into a Class 4 event but he has plenty to prove back at this trip. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
French turf/AW winner (7.5f/1m2f) in 2023; yet to be placed for this stable but he almost certainly needed his first start for 806 days when sixth of seven at Chester (1m2f, good) last time; dropped another 3lb and he may take a step forward. |
25/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
French turf/AW winner (7.5f/1m2f) early in 2023; choppy waters afterwards and has been absent since finishing tailed off in the Chester Plate in May 2024. |
66/1 |

16th 5 (13) |
10th May 2024 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
French turf/AW winner (7.5f/1m2f) early in 2023; largely struggled on turf in Bahrain over the winter and although there have been better signs on British AW when an outsider in his two runs since, he still needs to build on that; unraced beyond 1m4f. |

27th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
5-9 over fences, the latest win gained in very strongly run race at Cartmel (2m1f, good) in May; well down the field in two competitive contests since but in calmer waters today and has a fighting chance if back on song. |
5/1 |

13th 1 |
20th Jul 2024 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Flat background; made a successful return to fences (fifth win in this discipline) at Cartmel (2m1f, good) and didn't give himself a chance at Uttoxeter by racing too freely; wouldn't be a certain stayer over this far. |
12/1 |

12th 2 |
30th Jun 2024 Good 1m 7f 214y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
Returned from break with two low-key Flat runs this year but came from behind to win Cartmel chase (2m1f, good) comfortably by 6l when back over jumps last month; was probably flattered by the way that very strongly run race panned out but is now 5-7 over fences (including a C&D win). |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Good run of form ground to a halt at Thirsk ten days ago when he wasn't on his best behaviour in the stalls; has the ability to feature off this mark but is not without risk. |
14/1 |
|
9th 10 (8) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
He had dropped a long way in the weights before ending a losing run at Newcastle (5f) in March; added a C&D win in April and he has run well in defeat in both runs since; creeping back up the weights and had a 53-day break but he has the ability to go well. |

Hasn't been seen in going on two years (has been dropped 5lb and gelded in the interim); made the running more than once and should be able to get his own way against several hold-up performers if that's the plan; the market will give some clues. |
