1st 5 (5) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual turf winner, latest success over C&D last October (good to soft); fair second over 1m at Ripon last time; ideally needs give in the ground. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 3 (9) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Scored off this mark at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) last October; kept on well on his last two starts at Beverley over 8.5f suggesting that a step back up in trip may be beneficial. |
7/1 |
|
5th 7 (7) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Only 1lb higher than for his Redcar win (1m2f, good to soft) in October but he's finished down the field in all four subsequent runs; wasn't beaten far over C&D 11 days ago but he's an infrequent winner and others are more persuasive. |

A winner over 6f on heavy ground in Britain and took a Roscommon handicap off 10lb higher in May last year (7.5f, good); moderate form shown on AW when last seen in December. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
In fine form at 6f on the AW of late, winning at Southwell and Newcastle; has a better strike-rate on sand than turf (1-17) but he was running to a similar level on grass as AW in 2025 and it may be unwise to presume he's a one-surface wonder; respected. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (8) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Good efforts in all three 6f runs this year, placed behind the prolific Yorkshire Glory twice and readily seeing off five rivals at Southwell eight days ago; 1lb well in under a penalty; should go well. |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins have been on AW and latest was 11 months ago; 0-15 on turf but he had a near-miss at Nottingham (5f, good) in July and has run respectably in two of his three subsequent runs; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck. |
12/1 |
|
3 (6) |
9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished five places behind Arlington at Ripon 11 days ago but he met trouble in running; beaten only a head at Nottingham (5f, good) earlier in July and a repeat of that form would give him reasonable claims. |
5/1 |
|
7th 4 (8) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Chased home Canaria Queen in a Nottingham classified event 11 days ago and 1lb better off for a head defeat today; ran another good race at Newcastle on Saturday, never nearer than at the finish; new blinkers replace cheekpieces; has the ability to win a race of this nature but he's an habitual slow starter so will always need some luck in running. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won three times last season, the most recent coming at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in July; respectable third over this C&D on his return in April and kept on for fifth of 11 at Redcar (6f, good) 16 days ago; contender if things drop right. |
4/1 |

5th 8 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Made good progress last season, collecting three 6f wins along the way; just a respectable third of seven when back on turf last month, after a break, but might come on for the run and remains on a good mark. |
12/1 |

3rd 4 (1) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Absent since a defeat 100 days ago that took his AW record to 0-5; three-time turf winner and ran well at Leicester on most recent attempt in this sphere; returns to a favourable scenario. |

24th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
15-race maiden; coped well with the step up to this trip when a close fourth over C&D last week; that wasn't a searching examination of her stamina but this might not be either and she's one to consider. |

27th Apr 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Best run on turf was when runner-up to a useful sort in a 5f maiden here in July (soft; third has won since); off the mark in a Kempton maiden in February, but well below his best on handicap debut at Southwell earlier this month (5f; cheekpieces); headgear retained; up to 6f for the first time. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Unable to justify favouritism on his stable debut at Wolverhampton in November; excuse next time and although he ran respectably at Wolverhampton last month, it wasn't a run that conclusively proved his stamina for 7f; now tried in an eyeshield. |
8/1 |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Hinted at a revival in latest start and is attractively treated assuming he builds on that effort; gained sole handicap success off 5lb higher (in 2024). |
