25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Not disgraced in the Victoria Cup last time but, generally speaking, is perhaps still on a difficult mark on turf; gained last three wins on Newcastle AW and has shown peak form there. |
12/1 |

8th 24 (25) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Registered last three wins on Newcastle AW and ran respectably there on finals day; came up well short in the Spring Cup returned to turf last time and remains on a difficult mark in this sphere; sole handicap success on grass was off 13lb lower. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Kept busy on AW during the winter, winning over 7f at Newcastle and far from disgraced in a valuable 1m event there on Good Friday; however, his turf form is at a lower level and he'll do well to regain the winning thread. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Went off the boil towards the end of last season and also below his best on last month's reappearance at Musselburgh, taking his losing sequence to 15; however, this two-time C&D winner may have needed that latest outing and he's well handicapped on last year's best course form; not ruled out. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |

0-14 since winning four of his five starts between October 2023 and May 2024, but is 2-5 around here and very well treated on form as recently as last summer; off five months, but is proven fresh. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
Front-running 11yo with seven course wins, the latest gained over 1m (good) last spring; creditable placed efforts on his last three starts (including C&D) and should give it another good shot, for all this is a higher grade than he's been contesting. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 9 (6) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
11yo who won three times last year, including this race (good to firm); this front-runner has been placed at Pontefract (1m, good) and Ripon (1m2f, good) on his last two starts; 3-5 at Ayr and he's on the shortlist. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
14-time winner including seven times at Ripon; his last success was off 5lb higher last summer and he returned to form with a second at Pontefract (1m, good) last month; hasn't run over this far for a long time but he used to be effective at this trip and most of his wins have been in May-August. |

23rd Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Last run at Kempton saw him finish a close second off a 15lb higher mark and that was as recent as March; likely to exploit his drop in the weights at some point but perhaps in a less competitive race than this. |
12/1 |
|
6th 6 (7) |
19th Sep 2024 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has looked on the downgrade in recent times, coming 16lb down the weights this year; hasn't looked to see out 1m2f the past twice, though, and a better showing wouldn't surprise back in the usual cheekpieces. |
20/1 |

5th 5 (4) |
16th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Usually seen over 1m and a return to 1m2f ten days ago did not yield anything; 12lb lower than at start of the year but others have more pressing claims. |

20th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
10st 2lb |
AW winner, showed potential for turf success with several good Curragh runs last season; beaten favourite in races at Limerick and the Curragh this season for this stable; seems risky but could feature; competing from a new career-low, 23lb below initial mark after debut win. |
6/1 |

23rd May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Some decent runs in defeat, incl'over C&D, while dropping in the handicap last year; poor in testing ground on debut for this yard but can do better under these conditions. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Record of 211 since wearing visor, the wins at Southwell (7f, AW) and Newmarket (1m, good to firm); back on career-high mark and back up in class but may have more to offer in the retained headgear. |
12/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner for Charlie Johnston in June 2023; off the mark for this yard over 7f at Southwell when visored for only a second time and he kept on gamely; just 3lb higher. |
3/1 |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
0-14 since a 1m Newmarket handicap win for Charlie Johnston in June 2023, but latest 1m Doncaster second was only his second outing for Denis Quinn and he went through that race as if this drop back to 7f may be in his favour. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Veteran (13-102); has won just once since late 2024, when edging out Pallas Lord over C&D (15-2) on New Year's Day; kept on after a slow start, fifth of seven, at Ayr (7f; 33-1) four weeks ago. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |

Getting on for three years since his last turf success and this veteran hasn't been at his best at Newcastle of late; opposable back at 7f and returned to the grass. |

3rd Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Eight-time course winner who may have needed his recent reappearance outing here; however, he raced just twice last season and this 11yo needs to come on a bundle for that latest run, having been well beaten. |
33/1 |
|
8th 9 (3) |
22nd May 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Eight-time course winner; ran just twice last season, when runner-up at Musselburgh in April and down the field over this C&D in September; now an 11yo and he's possibly best watched on his return to action. |
