23rd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Commenced the campaign with turf/AW wins and has made the frame in most starts since, close second at Yarmouth latest; back up in class but receives weight all round; could go well. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 11 (8) |
16th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 1f 21y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Has won at this track on soft; upped markedly to 1m3f at Southwell (AW) last month and led 2f out until three rivals went past in the final 1f; that was a good run, followed admittedly by a lesser show at York but that was over 1m4f; could be a player back here at 1m1f. |
20/1 |

8th 16 (6) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |

Acts on soft; unproven beyond 1m and unraced beyond 1m1f until he tried 1m3f at Southwell (AW) 15 days ago and led 2f out until three rivals went past in the final 1f; that was a good run and his dam won at this trip but others clearly have less to prove in this hot 1m4f race. |

Was becoming frustrating and only beat two rivals at odds-on in a 6f Southwell maiden 22 days ago; however, has the ability to threaten off this mark should that be a springboard to better things. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Rattled off an Ayr hat-trick over 7f on fast ground in July; yet to score off a mark this high, and wasn't so good on his last two starts, but good to soft ground probably didn't suit at Thirsk 25 days ago. |
14/1 |
|
7th 6 (5) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Belatedly exploited his drop down the handicap at Ayr (7f, good to firm) in July and he added two more wins over that C&D in the next fortnight; came up short in his bid for a four-timer at Doncaster three weeks ago; not handicapped out of things though and could bounce back. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Has slid down the weights this year; it's a good while since he ran in a sprint and there have been no signs of a revival in three runs for his new yard; some way down the pecking order. |
16/1 |
|
7th 8 (6) |
2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Well handicapped on his Chelmsford win (7f, AW) in January but he's 0-11 since and has been laboured in both runs for current yard; has some questions to answer and he needs to get back on track. |
14/1 |
|
10th 2 (1) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Signed off for previous yard in solid enough form but beat only one home at Brighton on yard debut; does have form here if he could get back on track. |

21st Sep 2026 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ended losing run in classified race here (7.3f, good) in June and was close second in Bath handicap (1m, good) nine days ago but this season's record is very mixed and he'd appeal more on better ground. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ended losing run in Ffos Las classified (7.3f, good) in June but safely held in two subsequent handicaps; may remain vulnerable at this level. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended a long losing run in a classified event at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) in June but he was a remote third there (1m) last time; that was a tough task behind a handicap blot but he's not easy to predict and his two runs on slow ground have been underwhelming. |

10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
40-1 when beaten a nose at Kempton (6f, AW) on his stable debut in March and, after some lesser turf efforts, he was back in form when beaten a neck at Lingfield (1m, AW; first-time hood/tongue-tie) 19 days ago; thereabouts if he can transfer that form to grass this time. |
6/1 |

2nd 3 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |

All four wins when trained by Mick Appleby; below par on turf recently and has a bit to prove on this return to AW; first-time hood goes on alongside returning tongue-tie. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Yet to make a significant splash in handicap company and, while moving back up to 1m from 7f should suit, a few others are preferred; returns from short break. |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Inconsistent 5yo whose losing run goes back 27 races and he was below par at Wetherby last week, however he was a close second at Ripon (6f, good) prior to that and is effective here; each-way claims if back on song. |

0-7 but second or third four times, including when third of six on last month's Lingfield return (6f, AW; first start since being gelded); each-way claims if stepping forward for the run and responding positively to the blinkers. |

Runner-up in two of his six starts on turf, the latest at Salisbury (7f, good) in May, and he may have just needed the run at Lingfield (7f, good) 11 days ago; one of his half-brothers won on the AW and so did his dam, so he may find a bit more improvement for the new surface. |
