24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
No win since June 2024; now two grades and 14lb lower; placed at Redcar (7f, good) in October but disappointing since, including in cheekpieces at Southwell (7f) five weeks ago; headgear is tweaked again (visor) seeking the solution. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Record of 5-37 on turf and 2-15 on AW; folded tamely returned to this sphere last time but has a good chance off current mark provided he rebounds in first-time headgear. |

Career win number seven when beating Lady Arwen here over 7f last month (soft) off 74 for today's rider; just okay runs twice since off revised mark; more needed. |

14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Seven-time winner; yet to build upon his pleasing seasonal reappearance in March but ran quite well when fourth at Southwell (7f, AW) three weeks ago and switches back to turf on a good mark; can't be ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
23rd Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
All four AW wins on Polytrack, the latest more than four years ago, and he's likely to need more than a respectable sixth at Newcastle in May, when having a rare run on Tapeta, and also on his Chester form since; headgear returns for the first time since last July. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Two wins over 1m2f at Ripon this year (good/good to soft) and a good second to Salamanca City (with whom he is 4lb better off) when stepped up to 1m4f there last time (good); won over 1m2f last September on only previous start here; interesting. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Down the field at York and Windsor on his last two starts but he's won on his last four visits to Ripon (1m2f, good/good to soft), including twice this year; it's surprising he's only ever had one crack at 1m4f, given how well he kept on over that trip in 2024; firmly in calculations back here. |
11/2 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Most likeable front runner who bagged a second win of 2026 in 1m2f Ripon handicap in May; unable to lead from a poor draw when 11th at York (1m2f) 15 days ago and remains very much one to consider. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Only turf win was at Yarmouth on his debut in 2019 (6f, good to firm); best runs this season have been over 6f/7f here, including last time when 2.5l fourth over 6f; each-way chance. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (6) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Regressive since returning from almost a year off and has struggled in a couple of runs back on turf (said to have been restless in the stalls last time); this is easier than he's used to, dropping back from 7f, but he has it to prove now. |
10/1 |
|
11th 11 (1) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Winless since 2024 but he took a step back in the right direction with fourth of ten in 7f Doncaster handicap last month; needs considering off a 2lb lower mark with Eireann Cagney up. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple 6f AW winner who is 0-16 on turf, where his better efforts have been on slow ground; AW form has tailed off recently and he looks in need of a revivial if he's to break his turf duck. |
10/1 |
|
12 (7) |
22nd May 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Four wins on AW over 6f, including here; two solid seconds at Kempton this year and his last run there (over 7f) can be forgiven; remains favourably treated. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

On a losing run but consistent in the main and was a close fourth in a 1m2f classified here last week; must have some sort of chance. |
4/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Needs to rebound from a poor handicap run here nine days ago but is generally very consistent; came second in similar race to this over C&D (good) in June and probably won't be far away. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
12th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Admirably consistent 7yo who chased home Angel's Call in 7.3f classified race here in June and was third over C&D in that grade a fortnight ago; probably in the mix again. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
On much reduced mark but this Kempton specialist has not won since 2022 and has form figures of 90068079 this year; cheekpieces return on his second run after a break but he needs a major revival back up in trip. |
12/1 |
|
9th 5 (7) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Prolific course winner but the latest of them was back in April 2022; now rated 32lb lower but he wasn't in much form earlier in the year; could revive after his break; stable also run Galel; betting can guide. |
12/1 |
|
7th 2 (6) |
5th May 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Eight-time course winner who is 12lb lower than when a close third over C&D last September; a market check is advised but this 10yo has struggled this year (including here) and is without a win since April 2022. |
25/1 |
