25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Hasn't won for over a year and yet to tackle AW but ran well on first outing over 7f at Musselburgh last time, faring the best of those held up; another to consider. |
7/1 |

3rd 5 (2) |
13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Sprinting filly who is 0-7 this season, albeit has slipped to an attractive mark; something to prove over this new trip but the combination of sharp track and forecast sound surface may enable her to see it out. |
13/2 |

Won twice in the summer last year (5f/6f, good to soft/good); mixed form this year, not disgraced when fourth at Hamilton last time (6f, soft); each-way chance. |

20th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Promise at an ordinary level on first three starts but well beaten both starts in handicaps and best watched after near four-month break. |

23rd Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Close second on debut at Catterick (5f, good to soft) last month; unable to reproduce that promise on her two runs since but she's not ruled out on this nursery debut. |

9st 9lb |
Dual 5f Polytrack winner (once here) this year; not discredited in higher-grade company over 6f here last month and probably still on a workable mark for this drop back to her optimum trip; must be considered. |

11th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Has shown ability but he needs to produce more than he's managed in his first two nurseries if he's to come out on top today; visor goes on. |
9/1 |

19th Jul 2024 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth behind Educating Rita at Catterick on his second start and he's 11lb better off for just over 3l; still looked a work in progress when sixth at Carlisle two weeks ago (6f, good to firm); looks a likely improver now his attentions are switched to nurseries. |

4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Rediscovered winning ways at Musselburgh (7f, good; 16-1) in August but she has proved troublesome since, failing to offer anything positive at Ayr, Catterick or Musselburgh (7f-1m); clear and obvious risks attached. |

26th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Third over 5f at Chelmsford and Wolverhampton since switching to nurseries with a tongue-tie added; should be competitive but needs a bit more for the win. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
7th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
took keen hold, pressed leader early, prominent after 1f, pressed leader over 2f out, no extra and lost second inside final furlong |
6/1 |
|
8 (3) |
6th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Weak finisher over 5f, 7f and 6f with hood fitted each time; may see her race out better now handicapping in tongue-tie and dropped back to the minimum distance. |

20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ex Jim Goldie, now 2lb below the mark he won from at Newcastle (5f; made all) in December; soundly beaten in two starts for this trainer, left trailing (last of eight) behind Woohoo at Musselburgh (5f; 40-1) three weeks ago; revival necessary. |
33/1 |
|
8th 5 (1) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Scored three times, including over C&D, during his spell with Jim Goldie but always behind on C&D stable debut 17 days ago; can only watch after that. |

15th 11 (9) |
12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |

30th Sep 2024 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Exposed sort who is 0-9 since debut win (5f, AW) in the spring and has failed to progress; on the plus side, she's attractively weighted (10lb lower than last attempt at this trip). |
11/1 |
|
12th 4 (11) |
16th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Exposed sort who is 0-8 since debut success (5f, AW) in the spring and has failed to progress; seemed a non-stayer over 7f on penultimate start and has enough to prove back at this distance. |
14/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Faded out of contention on last month's stable debut at Kempton (6f; first-time visor) but is well handicapped on his winter form for Mike Murphy and this C&D suits; sports refitted cheekpieces; not ruled out. |
9/1 |
|
9th 10 (2) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win was in December 2024 but he finished close fourth over C&D in January, on his final run for Mike Murphy; been gelded since and he needs a close look on his return for new yard; visor goes on and tongue-tie and cheekpieces are removed. |
15/2 |
|
4th 4 (1) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Not disgraced when fourth of 12 in this headgear combination at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) last month, but not so good at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) last time and just 1-18; others preferred. |
