30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Respectable sixth over 1m2f both starts this year, the latter in a warm race at York when shaping as if worth another try over 1m3f+; gets that here and has each-way hopes. |
10/1 |

6th 7 (9) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Close third of 15 on stable debut over C&D (good to firm) last August when 3lb higher; he hasn't kicked on subsequently but last month's reappearance sixth at Doncaster gives him something to build on; not discounted. |
12/1 |

6th 3 (10) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
2-6 for Karl Burke before sold for 165,000gns last July; ran well to take minor honours over 1m2f at York in two of his four subsequent starts, while 1m4f on heavy seemed to find him out in the November Handicap here on latest; can go well if sufficiently tuned up for this reappearance. |

8th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to win but he has finished second in three of his nine starts; quiet more recently and he still has to prove he wants this far, especially on a slow surface. |
12/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-8 and essentially very disappointing since his second on handicap debut at Haydock (1m, good); on the plus side, he responded well to the new cheekpieces on that occasion and now tries a visor; fairly treated should that experiment work well. |

2nd 1 (5) |
27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Three wins over 1m2f last season; unplaced twice this year but dropped 4lb for his troubles and this represents an ease in grade; stamina for 1m5f not assured. |
3/1 |
|
6th 5 (1) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Went up the weights having won three times last year, including C&D (good to firm) in May; unplaced on final start last term and same story on recent reappearance, but he may have needed that latest run and is not ruled out. |
8/1 |
|
7th 1 (9) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Front-runner who won on handicap debut at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) last May and scored twice in a row at Pontefract (1m2f good/good to firm) last summer; unplaced on final run last year and has to prove his current mark is within range, but he might be the type to continue to progress this season. |

6th 7 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
4yo who has shown ability on the Flat and it's still very early days over hurdles; however, he was soundly beaten on his handicap hurdle debut at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) in February and needs to raise his game. |
16/1 |
|
6th 5 |
15th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Juvenile hurdler who may show improvement off his opening hurdles mark; 0-9 overall but looks favourably treated with his Flat rating in mind and Gregor Walkingshaw takes off a bonus 10lb. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 |
22nd Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-6 on the Flat and failed to progress; ran okay when sixth of ten at Musselburgh (1m7f, good to soft) on New Year's Day on his second hurdle start but others have achieved considerably more. |

22nd Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Below par in visor last time but could go well with blinkers refitted; three attempts in this headgear, all in December, featured a win at Chelmsford and close second at Lingfield. |
10/1 |

7th 11 (3) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Eight-race maiden but she has been placed in four of her six runs for John Ryan; one to consider. |

8st 13lb |
0-7; beaten 3l when third of four at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) in April but he failed to build on that back on turf at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) 63 days ago; better needed. |
14/1 |
