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. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
10st 13lb |
Dual Flat winner who won a C&D handicap off 92 here in May; similar performance when runner-up on last month's return visit; looks vulnerable in a race of this nature. |
14/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |

Dual Flat winner added a first hurdling success when successful over C&D in May (good, 33-1) off 4lb lower; couldn't follow up in a similar contest here (good to yielding) last time when a 20l fifth. |

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. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 27y Class 4 |

Quirky and sometimes blows the start; on a reduced mark and retains some ability but he is not the obvious solution to this puzzle. |

Quirky and sometimes blows the start; well handicapped judged on lots of 2024 form over 1m4f-2m, but he's seldom sparked in the same way since. |

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. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Finished last of six at Ripon on stable/seasonal debut but is interesting assuming he's back in better form with the outing under his belt; dual winner off higher marks at Chester; check the betting, |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Well handicapped on his Chester win (1m4f, good) last May but he's 0-10 since and was well held in his final five runs for Ian Williams; returns after 200 days off and he needs to get back on track for new yard. |
14/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Good second off this mark in better race over C&D on Derby day, having scored at Chester the time before; not in the same form since and suffered a heavy defeat last Sunday. |

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). |

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. |
11/2 |
|
10th 17 (9) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Below par last weekend when bidding for a Doncaster 7f double; a possible threat if he rebounds but others are higher up the list. |
14/1 |
|
7th 13 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Edged out a next-time-out scorer (pair 4l clear) when coming from well off the pace to get up late over C&D (good to soft) three weeks ago; he's been an infrequent winner over the years but he retains handicapping scope after a 5lb rise. |
