31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
4-15 for David Simcock; four runs for current yard, absent 582 days before this season's, in which he showed that significant ability remains; needs to build on those performances but going back up from the 1m5f of last two outings should suit and he continues down the weights; case can be made. |

4-15 for David Simcock; absent for 582 days before having two runs for new yard this spring, runs which showed that significant ability remains but he needs to build on those performances. |

4-15 for David Simcock; absent for 582 days after a heavy defeat on debut for this yard and last week's comeback run at Musselburgh was just okay (2m, good); others preferred. |

16th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three 2m wins on AW in the first half of last year; last success was off 4lb higher but the wheels have come off since the autumn and he was tailed off at Kempton (after another wind op) last month; has lots to prove and he needs a major revival. |
12/1 |

28th May 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won three times on the AW in the first half of last year, the latest over C&D from 1lb higher in June; the wheels appear to have come off since the autumn, but he returns from three months off after a second wind operation; interesting to see how he fares. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple Flat winner who was contesting only his second handicap over hurdles when winning with the front two clear over C&D (good) three weeks ago; a 6lb rise isn't the end of the world by any means. |
7/4 |

1st 4 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 7f 70y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Showed fair form on his third hurdles start when runner-up at Stratford in October; below that form when fifth of seven at Exeter (2m7f, good to firm) on his handicap debut later that month; still early days and may show more here. |

21st Oct 2025 Good To Firm 2m 7f 25y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Multiple 1m4f-2m winner on the Flat; effective in blinkers in that sphere and these aids now return for handicap debut over hurdles after racing lazily when second in a Stratford novice (2m4f); considered. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Dual hurdle winner who is 0-4 in handicaps; however, he should be on a fair mark given the level of his Flat ability and he ran quite well in a valuable Newmarket handicap at the Guineas meeting; player. |
9/4 |

7th 9 (8) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Had underwhelming hurdle and AW campaigns before his second of five when returned to Flat turf at Beverley (2m) 18 days ago; this demands markedly better and his 2024 and 2025 turf records aren't that persuasive. |
25/1 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 32y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Second to Sax Appeal over C&D and successful over 1m6f at Wolverhampton (both off 2lb higher than today) last July; it's hard to be enthused by his more recent efforts, including well held at Newcastle on Good Friday, but this is a much less competitive scenario. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Kempton (2m, AW) in March and solid third there (2m, AW) last month; rarely seen on turf nowadays but he was effective on grass early in his career (particularly on slow ground); visor replaces cheekpieces; respected. |
7/2 |

3rd 2 (6) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Not as good now but the handicapper's been quick to ease off and he showed the right attitude to end a losing run over C&D 12 days ago; a 2lb rise seems fair and that won't have hurt his confidence. |

5th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Habitual slow-starter who again got going too late to land a blow when seventh of 13 at Kempton (1m3f) ten days ago; the visor he wore that day is retained; has just one win from 15 goes and needs something extra. |

6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has had just two AW races, including when second as 2yo; sole win (13 races) came over 1m4f at Ffos Las last August off 2lb higher, on the first of two starts with a tongue-tie which returns today; not so good since, with blinkers on last two outings, but the tongue-tie might help. |

16th Jun 2024 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Triple winner at up to 1m6f, all on a sound surface; stepped up on two early-season efforts when scoring at Newmarket last month; went up 3lb for that and was beaten over 8l at Hamilton (1m5f, good) latest; more needed. |

2nd Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Can front-run; surged back to form at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) two weeks ago, going on 3f out and seeing off the strong challenger Too Friendly; acts on good to soft; up 3lb but seriously considered. |

6th 3 (8) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
She has dropped a long way in the weights since joining this yard and hasn't made a major impact; latest Chelmsford third (beaten over 7l) was a bit better but she will need to step forward again to take this. |
11/2 |
|
3 (5) |
15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
On a losing run of 13 but ran better when fourth of ten at Wolverhampton (16.5f, Tapeta) last month, even though a slow pace probably didn't suit; last visit here resulted in a win over this trip just over two years ago and he's 12lb lower now; interesting. |
