3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
More productive on AW (5-17) than on turf (2-28) and was only run out of it inside the final furlong at Newcastle (7f Class 5; 9-1) in March; less effective since (0-2) but is slowly easing in the weights, and is perhaps best suited by 6f. |
11/1 |

9th 4 (3) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time winner who scored off 1lb higher over C&D in September; has been hit and miss since but he finished second here (7f) on his penultimate run and wasn't disgraced after an awkward start at Southwell last time; usually races prominently and he's not ruled out back at this track. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has form at different tracks but may be ideally suited by Catterick and, back away from that venue, his consistent spell ended last time; no win since 2024. |
8/1 |
|
7th 2 (5) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has added to his strong record over 7f at Catterick with a pair of runner-up efforts on good last month; successful on his fast-ground C&D debut, which was his only previous visit to Redcar; should go well again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His C&D record of 112153422 shows his affinity for the track and he made a pleasing return to action when second to the reopposing Evocative Spark here two weeks ago (pair clear); should make his presence felt again off an unchanged mark. |

Placed at Musselburgh last weekend but recorded a meagre RPR; the veteran remains on a near two-year losing spell. |

13th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Five-time AW winner but 0-22 on turf; ran poorly behind Penny Ghent at Ripon ten days ago and others have more obvious claims. |
16/1 |
|
13th 12 (12) |
17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
All five wins over 7f on AW; 0-21 on turf and doesn't appeal for win purposes despite career-low mark. |
16/1 |
|
4th 9 (6) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Billy Garritty gets on well with him (form figures together read 421125) and the likes of Kessaar Power should ensure this is truly run, which will suit this hold-up performer; he does seem more effective over 7f, though. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f; 10-1, from a 2lb lower mark) early in the New Year, having regularly caught the eye here prior; no obvious excuses when fourth over C&D latest (14-1); others more appealing. |
20/1 |
|
4th 4 (6) |
10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Came from off the pace to score at Southwell last month, his seventh success; probably still on a workable mark but his latest run was below par and his record in recent months is very mixed. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (13) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
His Carlisle win in July (6f, soft) was a comfortable one and he is only 3lb higher tonight; not far behind Sugar Baby at Redcar a fortnight ago but this will require more. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Three-time AW winner, most recently at Dundalk (7f, AW) in October when trained by Charles Byrnes; third on his stable debut at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in February but he's not built on that in three starts since; unraced on ground slower than good to soft. |
12/1 |
|
10th 3 (2) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A fair 7f winner in Ireland for Charles Byrnes in 2025 but yet to hit top form for his current yard, only eighth in 6f Wolverhampton handicap 29 days ago; needs to take a step forward. |
12/1 |
|
8th 11 (3) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
7f AW winner for Charles Byrnes in October; satisfactory start for new stable when third of nine at Chelmsford last month but he was unable to build on it at Kempton 11 days ago; others appeal more. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Handicapper hit him hard after he made it 2-2 at Leicester off 7lb lower last month and he's struggled in two runs since; hit and miss now and, while it's possible he'll bounce back, others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
8th 4 (10) |
8th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
6yo who hit a personal best with his emphatic win at Leicester (6f, good) last month but he flopped off this revised mark there 12 days later; has won at Ripon but he's not easy to predict and needs to bounce back again after that last run. |
9/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Winner of both C&D starts, in October (good to soft) and when pulling well clear (good) 12 days ago; has won on good to firm so the warm weather shouldn't be a problem but the new 9lb higher mark might be. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Handy sort who bounced back to form with easy wins over this trip at Musselburgh (soft) and Ayr (heavy) this month; only fourth of ten off this mark over C&D (good) ten days ago, but ground conditions today may be more to his liking and he is respected back down in grade. |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Suddenly thriving again, racing up with the pace when winning over this trip at Musselburgh and Ayr this month; those successes came on soft/heavy ground but he has plenty of form on good to firm; more of a concern is a further 8lb rise to a career-high mark. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
All five wins have come here, the latest over C&D in December, and he was short-headed over 7f here on March 12; this hold-up horse was on the wrong end of a pace bias when 2l sixth over C&D last Saturday and could play a leading role if this pans out more favourably. |
7/1 |
|
6th 10 (9) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
All of his five wins have been at Newcastle and he produced a strong finish to go close over 7f here last Thursday; only 1lb higher on this step back up in trip and he's an interesting contender. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 9 (6) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Two Class 6 wins here (including this trip) in late 2025 but recent efforts no more than respectable, including at Wolverhampton on Monday. |

27th Jul 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Two poor efforts since returning from over a year off and it's hard to know what he's capable of now; easy enough to look elsewhere. |

5 (5) |
15th Jul 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Only seen five times since a C&D win in October 2022 and he's finished last on three most recent starts (two this year after 405-day absence); hard to recommend until showing more. |
66/1 |
|
10th 10 (2) |
30th Jun 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Best efforts have come on Tapeta but he offered very little back from over a year off three weeks ago (turf); it's hard to know what he's capable of now. |
