27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Hold-up sprinter; just one win to his name since May 2022; shaped with some promise at Haydock three weeks ago (after a break) and he's on a fair mark; effective at the track. |

Below par on both runs this term but didn't perform badly at Hamilton in May last time on good going that may not have been ideal; now 2lb lower than when winning at Wetherby (soft) last year and the more rain the better. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Back to winning ways at Ayr (6f) in July but well below par both runs since and he failed to beat a rival in Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last time; needs to take a major step forward. |
33/1 |
|
14th 10 (13) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
0-5 at Ripon but he has run well here; back near his best when seeing off 16 rivals at Ayr last month but a subsequent Hamilton run (5f) was underwhelming; still feasibly weighted despite being 1lb wrong but he is another who would make more appeal on a slower surface. |
16/1 |

10th 10 (2) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Running well this year, including close third to Vantheman over C&D in May, and he posted a deserved win in a big field at Ayr (6f, good) 26 days ago; raised 5lb but he was very competitive off similar marks in 2024. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Four-time turf winner who won off today's mark at Newcastle (5f, AW) in February; however, he's finished down the field on his last four starts and a major turnaround is necessary. |
12/1 |
|
11th 3 (13) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won three 5f AW handicaps through the winter but his last three efforts were nothing to shout about; capable on turf but needs to turn a corner. |
14/1 |
|
9th 10 (6) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
In good form for much of the winter, winning three 5f handicaps, but his form has cooled on his last two starts; others look stronger in this grade. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
8yo who is 0-14 this season, with mixed form, but there have been bright points and he's dropped to a dangerous mark; this two-time C&D winner is not discounted. |
5/1 |
|
5th 3 (6) |
24th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Nine-time turf winner who is well treated on his win at Catterick last spring; has been up and down since but he's finished runner-up four times this year including at Catterick (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; could be dangerous in another switch of headgear. |
10/1 |

6th 4 (7) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest C&D second on good to firm shows he's in reasonable form; ought to be in the mix again at a course which suits (four wins) but all nine career successes have come on good or softer. |

15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Low-key return to turf at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; should be well treated but he comes with risks attached. |
25/1 |
|
14th 11 (2) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but he has slipped a long way in the weights; absent since a poor run at Newcastle (7f) in February; headgear absent for his return and dropping back to 6f isn't sure to suit. |
33/1 |
|
10th 12 (11) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Too headstrong in a clear lead at Southwell (7f) last time, so did fairly well to be beaten only 2l in the end; gained last win off 10lb higher at Newcastle in August 2024; fighting chance provided he settles. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
1-34 on the AW, that win coming over 6f at Southwell in April 2021; rather out of sorts over 6f-1m this year and now tries 5f for the first time since May 2024. |
33/1 |
|
11th 11 (9) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Without a victory since 2023 and he has yet to make the frame in seven starts in 2026; hard to warm to. |
33/1 |
|
6th 9 (5) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Minor classified form at 1m, 7f and 6f this year and it's 13 months since he posed a serious threat in a handicap (over 7f at Southwell); up against it. |
