22nd May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Close third on soft at Yarmouth (1m6f) last July was his best turf form; needs better given the improvement he's shown on Kempton AW (2m) in two of his three starts since, but he'd have a good chance if that form is transferred back to turf; won on 2024 reappearance; needs a close look. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
0-4 on turf but he was close up in two of his turf handicaps (good to firm/soft); blinkered on last four outings, winning from off the pace over 2m on Kempton AW on the first and latest occasions; carries a 4lb penalty and is 3lb out of the handicap, so more improvement is needed, but the latest win was delivered in strikingly good style. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Beaten favourite over C&D this month but Miss Maverick did get first run on him and he has a 5lb pull on the winner now; remains relatively unexposed over this far. |
9/2 |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 3f 207y Class 3 |
12st 0lb |
Completed a four-timer on his first four starts in this sphere at around 2m; held his form in defeat until weakening right out of it when 40-1 at Aintree (2m4f, good to soft) last month; the same distance is being persevered with but he's down in class and not out of this. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Solid novice hurdler at 2m from last spring to autumn, completing a four-timer (on good ground) prior to holding his form, running-on sixth in Grade 2 at Cheltenham the final occasion; attractively weighed and has possibilities with this new trip worth exploring. |

18th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Three wins for Ed Dunlop; sold for 5,000gns last October; denied a run on several occasions on her stable debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) 17 days ago; will be suited by the step back up in trip and not out of this. |

1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

Patchy during a limited campaign last year for Ed Dunlop; wins as a 3yo came on soft turf and this trip looks a bare minimum for her new yard on comeback. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins (1m4f/11.6f) on slow ground last year and latest was off 1lb lower; returned to form when runner-up at Ripon (1m4f, good to soft) in May but she's hard to predict and failed to beat a rival at Carlisle in June; comes with risks attached after a break and this is competitive. |

Sole win came on AW in Britain in 2024; respectable effort when third over 1m5f at Ballinrobe in July; this trip may help to produce improvement. |

Sole win came on AW in UK in 2024; mixed form since joining this yard and was poor on fast ground at Tipperary last time; needs a lot more but this ground a help. |

Infrequent winner but well treated on this year's best efforts; well beaten at 40-1 on his return from a summer break two weeks ago and needs to leave that well behind. |

Placed in a couple of contests but seventh in her first handicap at Kempton AW (1m3f) last month was underwhelming; she raced freely and drops back to 1m on her turf debut; has a bit to prove. |

Sole win from 23 starts came on turf at Salisbury off 11lb higher last August; runner-up at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; first-time blinkers) in March but he was disappointing over 1m2f here next time and was pulled up at Bath (1m, firm; reported to have moved poorly) when favourite 38 days ago; needs to bounce back. |
