27th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 73y |
8st 11lb |
Sole success came over 6f on heavy ground for former yard in Britain; decent run on similar ground at Gowran last month, trip probably too far both starts since; blinkers now tried and drops back in trip so could improve on recent efforts. |

One of two for yard; sole success came over 6f on heavy ground for former yard; ran okay on heavy here (9.5f) on penultimate but failed to build on that at Naas latest; stamina to prove for this trip. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Over two years since the second of his two wins; lurks on a dangerous mark though and his two runs this year have seen him finish within 3l of the winner; has his first run at Pontefract but he is effective around a left-hand turn; can't rule out from a handy draw. |
6/1 |

7th 8 (2) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
It's a long time since he won but he was a close third over C&D (good to soft) last September and was an encouraging sixth of 18 on reappearance at Thirsk (6f, good); refitted with cheekpieces (which are combined with his tongue-tie) for the first time since a win at Nottingham in autumn 2023; non-runner here on Sunday with a vet's certificate. |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Four wins at 5f-7f in 2025, including here; back on her latest winning mark and she ran well over C&D two starts ago so can't be ruled out, albeit she often leads so will need things to fall right from this draw. |
7/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Four wins last June/July (5f-7f) and this front-runner returned to form when third at Catterick (6f, good) three weeks ago on her second start of the season; she can make another bold bid. |

Won two in a row in the spring (soft/good to soft) and returned to form when second at Beverley (7.4f, good) last month; however, she was soundly beaten at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) recently and has to bounce back. |

Twice ran well on Polytrack in October, including winning a Kempton handicap (7f), but modest of late including at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) on Friday; visor now given a go, but the draw hasn't been kind. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Unable to justify favouritism on his stable debut at Wolverhampton in November; excuse next time and although he ran respectably at Wolverhampton last month, it wasn't a run that conclusively proved his stamina for 7f; now tried in an eyeshield. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Hinted at a revival in latest start and is attractively treated assuming he builds on that effort; gained sole handicap success off 5lb higher (in 2024). |

10th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
C&D novice winner (good to soft) last October; hasn't kicked on this year, but did shape okay (runner-up) in first-time cheekpieces at Chester (6f, good to soft) three starts back; an easing mark, change of headgear, and the return to Catterick are all reasons to retain faith. |
10/1 |
|
9th 5 (6) |
27th Jun 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Seemed to respond well to first-time cheekpieces when second of five at Chester (6f, good) last month, but was below that form there a fortnight ago and has basically been disappointing since her 7f 2yo win in October. |
25/1 |
|
8th 12 (7) |
14th Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has mixed form in her six starts but she won a Catterick novice (7f, good to soft) last October and was a respectable second over C&D (cheekpieces added) last time; this is a deeper race but mark is sliding and she's in the mix. |

17th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't need to be at his best when finally off the mark in a weak 5f Musselburgh novice last month and took his handicap record to 0-9 when a respectable fourth at Newcastle (6f) since; may again have to settle for minor honours. |
6/1 |

4th 4 (2) |
1st Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Finally off the mark in a weak 5f novice last time; won't mind the return to 6f or Tapeta (went close over C&D in the spring) but has had plenty of chances off similar ratings. |

1st 3 (3) |

made virtually all, pushed along and faced challenge over 1f out, ridden inside final furlong, kept on final 110yds, much reduced lead towards finish, always doing enough |
