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. |

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. |

Recent Ripon winner but poor on either side of that and he has become hard to predict. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Wins have all come over easy tracks in the spring/autumn on good or softer ground; won well at Ripon last weekend but was always well positioned from the rail draw and a 6lb rise looks plenty as he goes back up in class. |

1st 2 (8) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to form with a second at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) last month but he failed to back that up over C&D (last of eight) two weeks ago; has something to prove again after that and he's still 3lb higher than for his last win. |

28th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Well treated on this year's best and his penultimate effort suggested he was still in good order; latest Chelmsford run was disappointing though and he'll need the new hood to have a positive effect; drops in class. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Had some useful form last year, including on soft, but he has yet to find his best in three runs in a truncated 2025 campaign; 9lb lower than when midfield in this race last year; others look safer. |
12/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Progressive last season when his two successes included the 3yo Dash on Derby day; missed the first half of this season and might have needed his first two runs back, never-dangerous fourth of ten at Haydock on latest; raced only at 5f but may now be ready for this step up in distance; still relatively low mileage and not ruled out. |
20/1 |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Progressive for Gemma Tutty last season, winning the 3yo Dash on Derby day and posting a personal best when beating nine rivals in this contest (just 1lb higher today) 12 months ago; weak in the market and might have needed the run after over ten months off when only sixth of eight here on reappearance; big player if building on that. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won four times in 2024, but losing run up to 14 despite a tumbling mark; fair effort when fourth of 13 at Catterick (7f, good) 18 days ago, though, and the winner has gone in again since; each way claims. |
7/1 |

4th 3 (3) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
He needs to produce a bigger performance than he's managed over 6f on his four starts this spring but he hasn't been running badly and is dropping down the weights; showed promise over 7f at Carlisle last September and the step back up in trip may be a positive move; possible player. |
9/1 |
|
6th 6 (10) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
On a dangerous mark now and his three runs this year have offered hope that his losing run could be snapped imminently; effective on AW and likely to be involved. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Four wins over 5f for Iain Jardine, but unplaced in three starts on the AW since returning for this yard in January; 8lb below last winning mark, but drying ground and return to 6f pose questions; cheekpieces return. |

5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 5f scorer for Iain Jardine; shaped encouragingly for his new yard when fourth at Southwell (5f) in January but raced too freely over 6f when seventh at Wolverhampton since; can bounce back here. |
16/1 |

7th 5 (8) |
16th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Campaigned mostly over 5f; posted a resurgent effort at Southwell on stable/seasonal debut; successful twice off current mark, so holds possibilities provided he's as effective back at 6f. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Beaten 19 times since his last win in September 2023 and good runs have been scarce over the last year and a bit; however, it's possible he'll improve for this month's reappearance outing and he's not discounted off a handy mark in a reapplied tongue-tie and first-time blinkers. |
9/1 |
|
9th 2 (6) |
3rd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |

Hasn't won since 2023 and he beat one home when last seen out in October; one to watch after a break of 213 days. |
