20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Mostly creditable efforts in defeat this season, including second of nine at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) last month; below-par sixth in this race on heavy ground last year; William Buick up but others arrive with more pressing claims. |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Had a good summer over about 1m4f last term, including when beaten a neck by Night Breeze in this race; some minor honours this season, without being quite in peak form but he is in serious each-way calculations. |

3rd 2 (11) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Had a good summer over about 1m4f last term, including a win in this race (good to soft) off 6lb lower; the handicapper has been winning the argument since but recent efforts have been creditable and he ought to be competitive again. |

27th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Races prominently and can make the running; much improved since blinkered, completing a four-timer in June/July before two good seconds and a creditable sixth in warm C&D race on latest outing (behind Filibustering); his only runs on worse than good to soft were last October at start of career (well beaten) so there is something to prove in the mud. |

7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Races prominently and can make the running; much improved since blinkered, completing a four-timer in June/July; advanced his form again when second in both starts since; all of that improvement was over about 1m4f but he shapes as if worth a go at 1m6f; considered. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 160y |
11st 0lb |
In terrific form of late, winning 2m3f Market Rasen handicap hurdle in May (good) and returned from a short break when strong-finishing neck second (clear of remainder) of 19 in 2m1f flat handicap here on Wednesday; clearly handles the track, should go well. |
4/1 |

2nd 20 (13) |
29th Jul 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
9st 7lb |
Three flat wins for various trainers in Britain and off the mark over hurdles for current trainer in 2m3f Market Rasen maiden in late May (good); had earlier not looked a straightforward ride on occasions; has had a break since. |
14/1 |
|
1st 4 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Has some useful Flat form and kept on steadily from a long way off the pace to take third on hurdle debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) in November; subsequent Grade 2 defeat is easily overlooked but he has become a very awkward ride, often refusing to settle and/or hanging; comes with risk. |

2nd Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
His last four wins have been over C&D, albeit spread over nearly three years; latest came by a nose in July and he was runner-up at Haydock on penultimate outing, before losing his chance at the start at Chester latest; well capable of being on the premises, including on soft. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Ex-Ian Williams; first win for current yard with first-time tongue-tie at Epsom last week (1m4f, good to firm), quickening up well after not getting best of runs; could go well with a 4lb penalty although below par two previous runs at 1m6f. |
13/2 |

1st 2 (3) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Signed off for Ian Williams with below-par AW run in the autumn and finished last on both turf starts for new stable this year; on good mark now but needs first-time tongue-tie to aid a return to form. |

29th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Beaten half a length or less in his last two starts at Newmarket (1m2f/1m4f); has winning form on Tapeta (at Wolverhampton) and is 8lb lower than when last on the AW, but losing run up to 14; needs a bit more. |
11/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
23rd Aug 2024 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has won four middle-distance handicaps and latest was off 9lb higher at Chester (1m4f, good) last June; 0-13 since but he bounced back with a close call over 1m2f here last Friday and is a big player if he can repeat that form (due to be 2lb higher in future). |

9st 5lb |
Narrow win at Doncaster (7f, good to soft; 0-55 handicap); not so good since, including in a classified race last week, and others are preferred for win purposes. |
10/1 |
|
8th 1 (9) |
26th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Came from well off the pace to win a handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in May, but he hasn't matched that level in three starts since and this track isn't sure to suit his hold-up style; others preferred. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Came from an unpromising position to win a 7f handicap at Doncaster (good to soft) in May; has not matched it in two runs since and this isn't sure to set up for him. |
