30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Ayr Bronze Cup winner in 2024 who also posted some good efforts without winning in 2025; beat one on his return in 7f Haydock handicap after nine months off but he should strip sharper now. |
10/1 |
|
9th 2 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won the 2024 Ayr Bronze Cup in fine style (6f, good); 0-5 in 2025 but looked to retain all his ability; conditions won't be an issue and he has run well first time out in each of his seasons of racing; chance. |

7th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who won the Ayr Bronze Cup last September and has run well in defeat on all four starts this season, most recently third of 13 at York (7f, good to firm); there's every chance he'll be in the mix. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
The winner of three of his 34 starts for Richard Fahey, the latest off this mark at Newcastle in January (6f); sold for 19,000gns last month; capable at this level and the betting should be revealing starting out for Adam Kirby. |
9/2 |

4th 2 (14) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Just 1lb higher than when winning here (6f, AW) in January but he has a mixed record since and was only sixth of nine at Chelmsford last month; this return to 7f is no problem but he needs to get back in the groove. |

6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Only won one of his last 25 starts and regressed last year; now 11lb lower than when beaten a nose over C&D last spring but there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh; others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |

3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Struggled on his last four starts but he has dropped 9lb as a result; fully effective around here and he's likely to bounce back soon; 7f perhaps his optimum trip though. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Defied a higher mark at Glorious Goodwood last season and placed a few times on AW this year (up to April); not in top form since returning from a break and needs to stage a revival. |

3rd Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Record of 0-5 this term for new yard but has been working her way into form, including over C&D; not dismissed off current mark. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Caught the eye dropped to a 0-70 for the first time at Kempton (6f) four weeks ago, beaten only just over 2l despite being repeatedly denied a clear run; the return to 7f should help if anything and Patrick Chamings is among the winners so there are reasons to be hopeful. |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

She has slipped down the weights and there was more encouragement to be gleaned from her Goodwood fifth last month (7f, soft); drops in class today and Jim Crowley is booked; interesting. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made a winning stable debut at Hamilton (8.5f; 20-1) last month; backed that up, splitting a Jim Goldie pair (third has won since), under a 5lb penalty there (1m1f) next time; 1lb lower now and has no issues with this AW track (311224); interesting. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Steps up further in class but he has progressive York form and brings impressive stats, being 3-4 over C&D (gained last win cosily in good-ground Listed race) and 4-9 in headgear, which is reapplied with Newmarket reappearance under his belt; has a better chance than bare ratings suggest. |
12/1 |

9th 5 (8) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Has form on the Newmarket tracks but recorded last three wins at York, including when beating Crestofdistinction with more in hand than the narrow margin suggests in Listed grade on most recent appearance; likely to be more interesting when back at that venue. |

8st 10lb |
Won three 6f events in the early part of 2024, notably the 3yo handicap over C&D on Good Friday; two heavy defeat since need forgiving but it was a strong race on turf on the first occasion and he'd been off for seven month's prior to his recent return (easy to back and looked to need it); still has time to do better but he will need a quick transformation to take this. |

Big improvement with his wins over C&D and at Newcastle (6f) in February/March; no joy in hat-trick bid at York (7f) in May but he still has potential after only eight starts and is 3-5 on AW; needs a close look back in trip on his return. |

9st 1lb |
Well handicapped on her 5f 2yo form; tackles the trip for the first time this season and it could prompt a return to form, but her claims aren't overly compelling in view of this year's performances at 6f/7f. |
10/1 |

10th 12 (13) |
14th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Hasn't matched her 2yo form in three runs this spring; dropping down the weights and the return to 6f will suit but others are more appealing. |

15th May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Promising 2yo at 7f, winning on debut for Kevin Ryan and later close up in a Newmarket handicap; well held over that trip and 1m in 2024 though, and still has to prove stamina for this far; enough to prove at this stage for new yard. |

Won twice over 7f for Karl Burke as a 2yo; not much to celebrate since but his stable debut in January (C&D) wasn't without hope and he's now 10lb lower; not solid but a big run wouldn't be a bolt from the blue. |

Four wins on Tapeta elsewhere, at 5f-7f, all in 2024; has been involved in several tight finishes since December, including for Oisin Murphy at Kempton (6f) in April, and while he's been on much the same mark throughout, he's worth another go over a bare 5f; thereabouts. |

Yet to win in ten starts for current stable but he has been placed in seven of them, including back on turf at Wetherby 13 days ago (5.5f, good to firm); should run his race but this looks a tough race in which to end his losing streak. |
