12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Won a nursery here at last year's Glorious meeting (7f, good to firm) and back on the scoresheet at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) in August; fifth of 13 at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) since and this 3yo could build on that latest performance now back up in trip; unraced on slow ground. |

5th 6 (6) |
27th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Proved resurgent with success on the July course (1m, good to firm) last time, albeit off 3lb lower and with rider taking off 5lb; this looks a harder task but he's had a light campaign and may have more to offer. |
8/1 |

1st 8 (4) |
15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Down the field (beaten 8l) in the Britannia on his only previous attempt at 1m; this season's form figures are a tad misleading as he's not been running badly, including last time in a deep 7f handicap at Goodwood; only 4lb higher than for his nursery win and Jack Dace takes off 5lb; could be interesting. |

9th 3 (3) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

12-race maiden who hasn't offered a great deal for his current stable, including when a remote last of eight at Ayr (7f, soft) on his seasonal return 11 days ago; others much safer. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-12 but very nearly got off the mark at Bath (1m, heavy) last month and again ran well when 2l third of 11 at Kempton (1m, AW) last time; can be in the mix and very testing conditions would boost her claims. |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Ploughed through deep ground when upped to 1m at Bath this month, finding just a stablemate too strong; 1m2f on similar ground was perhaps a step too far last time; can get back on track if taking to AW. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
All 12 runs have been on turf including three consecutive wins over 7f/1m (good/good to firm) in May and June of last year; right out of form in final three runs last season but he's got back on track this spring and was only beaten a nose at Chester (10.3f) last month; nudged up 2lb but he was clear of the third last time and is still unexposed at this trip; big player. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 12 (6) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Completed a hat-trick over 7f/1m on good/good to firm in May and June last year; right out of form in August/September but reappearance fourth at Epsom (8.5f) nine days ago was a step back in the right direction; looks bred for 1m2f (has had one attempt) but may need a career best. |
11/1 |

4th 1 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Completed a hat-trick over 7f/1m on good/good to firm across May and June last year; form tailed off markedly from August onwards but he returns just 2lb above his last winning mark; market support would bring him into the picture. |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All races at 6f, his fortunes taking a turn for the better when just losing out at Doncaster in July then coming through takingly to win on Southwell AW last month; up 7lb and drawn high but he looks promising. |
3/1 |
|
1st 6 (6) |
1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Seven-race maiden but he's edged down the weights and he went desperately close to making the breakthrough at Doncaster last week; 3lb well in and he's a leading player on his Tapeta debut. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 4 (2) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
0-6 but he finished a respectable third on handicap debut at Thirsk (6f, good) last month and that form was boosted when the winner followed up off 6lb higher; out of a soft-ground winner and could be dangerous if he can build on that last run. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Similar type to Native Warrior, with record 1-9, but has less going for him in terms of overall form; has failed to back up his AW Group 3 effort and performed below market expectations in Chester handicap most recently. |
12/1 |
|
6th 2 (3) |
14th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Faced a tough task as the only 3yo against elders in a Listed race at Salisbury last time and contested three Group races last season after his maiden win; sights are now lowered on handicap debut with a visor (in which he ran well once last season) back on; has only once tried 7f but should stay on pedigree. |
100/30 |
|
5th 8 (8) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
Fast-ground maiden win at Glorious Goodwood last summer; improved for the addition of a visor when finishing second of ten in an AW Group 3 last September; less good twice since and he's opposable on balance. |

Encouraging eighth of 20 at Newbury last May (6f, good; 20-1) and then midfield in a tough sales race next time (extended 6f); should stay the extra distance and has races in him; now gelded and has moved to a new yard (same owners). |

Consistent maiden who again gave his running over C&D last time (Uzincso just behind) without necessarily improving for the step up from 1m2f; one to consider in first-time headgear taking a drop in class. |

11 (11) |
19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |

Has been in good form in 6f handicaps this season, including second over C&D in April (good to soft) and third at Carlisle in May (good to firm); won his first race on turf when prevailing at Newbury last week (good to soft); has a penalty but sound chance. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

3rd 10 (8) |

Found only Realign too strong at Haydock (6f, good to soft) last autumn despite meeting trouble at a crucial stage, and he was back on the up when a neck second of 16 at Ripon (6f, good to soft) six weeks ago; reliable and has notably solid credentials. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
First handicap win when he scored at Windsor in August and he'd dropped to the same mark when registering another win over that C&D (also good to firm) 25 days ago; 2lb nudge but everything that's come out of that race has run well subsequently, including wins for the runner-up and ninth, and he's firmly considered in his follow-up bid. |

1st 7 (14) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Won a C&D handicap off this mark last August and when second at Thirsk the following month he split rivals who won the Portland and Ayr Bronze Cup on their next starts; beaten favourite over C&D five weeks ago but he had a torrid run through in a messy race; drawn widest but he's well handicapped. |

23rd Jul 2025 Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 4 |

Held up this season; second at Chester (1m2f) in May is easily the best of his five runs this season and he was tailed off at Epsom latest on first attempt at 1m4f; visored last four starts and tongue tied latest, but cheekpieces (tried once as 2yo, below form) return; unraced on softer than good. |

Following an encouraging reappearance fifth at Haydock in April he was beaten a long way on his final two starts for Ed Bethell; however, he's well treated on last season's form and perhaps he'll have been revived by a change of scenery; market check advised on stable debut. |

Won novice events at Kempton (7f, AW) and over C&D (good) for Roger Varian last summer but has mixed record in handicaps since; made a promising stable debut when fifth at Haydock in April but he was a long way below that form in another Class 2 event at Ascot last month; now drops back in grade but regular hood is removed and he comes with risks attached. |

25th 12 (18) |

Lightly raced 4yo who ties in with Great Acclaim on a stable/seasonal debut effort at Haydock that took his form figures over 7f to 1135; may resume progress with that outing under his belt; one to consider, especially if the market signals speak positively. |

Tricky customer but arrived on the scene late and fast to win a C&D handicap last October; held his form with respectable frame efforts here (1m2f) in both subsequent runs and has claims if he can find some extra spark. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In the frame in four of his last six starts and drops to this level for the first time, but a record of 0-25 raises doubts even in this company; visor given a go this time. |
5/1 |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well treated on plenty of form but has been unable to take advantage of a steadily declining mark for current connections and latest defeat took his record to 0-24. |
8/1 |
