31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
On a losing run and he has yet to win over this trip; sent off favourite for the corresponding race 12 months ago but faded into tenth; 6lb lower this time around and he has finished second in two of his last four starts; vulnerable to stronger stayers. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but there were some good runs in defeat and he starts this season off an 8lb lower mark than for last year's reappearance; solid third in one run at Yarmouth; best on good ground or faster; makes his seasonal return with a hood back on and with his stable in good form. |
4/1 |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All his wins have come at Doncaster but he's fully effective elsewhere and is still unexposed on AW; plenty of solid efforts over 5f this season but losing run is mounting up and he's struggled in four previous runs at this trip; down the list. |
10/1 |

13 (8) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |

All his wins have come at Doncaster but he is fully effective elsewhere, including on AW as evidenced by his close third in this race last year when rated 3lb higher; retains plenty of ability and more minor money not out of the question. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinter in his prime but last win was four years ago and he's finished down the field in four runs this season; return to 6f in his favour but don't need much encouragement to look elsewhere. |

Veteran who was a smart sprinter in his prime but last win was four years ago and he's finished down the field in three runs this season; dropped another 3lb but he has lots to prove on this first run at 7f; visor removed. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Without a win since August 2024 but well treated on last year's best efforts and he shaped when seventh of 14 over C&D three weeks ago as though he'd be sharper for that comeback run; seems to like it here; on the shortlist. |
7/1 |
|
7th 12 (9) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
A losing sequence is mounting but he has a win and a third from just two attempts over C&D, and the latter was first time out last season; 7lb lower here and he's of obvious interest if cherry ripe after 161 days off (has had wind surgery); one of two very plausible candidates for the Barrons. |
11/2 |
|
11 (5) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Close second in this race 12 months ago (Oisin Murphy on board) when rated 4lb higher; knocking at the door this season and the addition of cheekpieces could give him a lift; shortlisted. |

4th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Dual C&D winner of much higher marks in the summer of 2022 including this race; 1-23 since, though, and tardy starts have become a habit (blindfold off late the last twice); 5lb below last winning mark so certainly well handicapped, but risky. |
10/1 |
|
11th 13 (12) |
7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
This mark in range but he hasn't found his best form so far this year (had blindfold issues behind Castan latest); this looks a tough race in which to bounce back. |

22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Kickstarted 2024 with 6f Southwell success and he's continued in good form, a close sixth of 12 at Doncaster (5f) three weeks ago; can go well. |
8/1 |
|
6th 11 (5) |
1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Dual 6f winner at Southwell (AW); good second dropped to 5f at Carlisle (good to firm) most recently, meeting traffic then keeping on well once in the clear; unexposed at this distance and warrants respect off unaltered mark. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
20th May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins over 6f on Tapeta at Southwell; led until folding in the final 1f at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) most recently, suggesting this drop in distance is worth a shot. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Ended last season in good form on AW; has done most of her winning on turf but looks weighted to the hilt on reappearance, being still on a career-high mark; seems unlikely to improve aged eight. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
13th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |

She was having just her third run on AW when running out the stylish winner of a C&D handicap nine days ago; a 4lb rise shouldn't be beyond her but stall nine tempers enthusiasm. |

17th 1 (13) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Eight-time winner, including twice over C&D; shaped as if retaining ability when eighth of ten at Nottingham (40-1) on return but may need another run to put him spot-on. |

8th 7 (10) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |

9st 7lb |
Ran out an easy winner in a small-field soft-ground handicap at Pontefract last spring but the handicapper took umbrage and she's found it tough going since; may have needed January's return to action but she still carries risk despite her much-reduced mark. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Both of his wins from 41 starts have been on turf, the most recent in October 2023, but he was unlucky not to finish closer at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 31 days ago; each-way claims if things drop right for this hold-up performer. |
7/1 |
|
5th 6 (9) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Always had his quirks and again hung left when a beaten-favourite at Southwell last time; usually dropped in and that will likely be the case again from the outside stall, in which case he'll need things to pan out ideally down from 7f. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-13 on AW but he is fully effective on Tapeta; the step up to 7f didn't yield instant dividends at Wolverhampton 16 days ago but he didn't get chance to show his true colours, tight for room inside the final furlong and having to switch right before keeping on steadily; this more spacious track could see him in a better light. |

Ended a losing run when gamely fending off another in-form rival over C&D 11 days ago; 3lb rise is not excessive and this is a weaker race, so he has to feature prominently in calculations. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |

Veteran who made a pleasing return from a three-month break at Haydock last month; not so good at Redcar 17 days ago and others appeal more. |
