21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won his first five starts on the AW between October 2023 and October 2024 including twice over C&D; has run well on several occasions since then and just 2lb above his last winning mark, but the outside stall makes things tricky. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Five-time AW winner but he was reluctant to race at Kempton (tailed off) last month and finished well held back off a lower turf mark at Sandown (1m, good) last time; record on grass is 0-9 and others are preferred. |
14/1 |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Well handicapped on this year's AW form but reluctant to race when well beaten at Kempton (1m, AW) last month and he has a lower turf mark for a very good reason (0-8 on grass as opposed to 5-12 on AW). |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 197y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last spring but he's struggled in his last eight starts including over hurdles in last two runs; now 10lb lower than for his last success but he needs a big turnaround for new yard (has changed hands and left Mike Smith); hood removed and cheekpieces return. |
16/1 |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Two Flat wins but form went the wrong way in that code from last August onwards and he was pulled up at 150-1 on hurdle debut four weeks ago. |
100/1 |

6th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Dual Flat winner; fairly useful at his best (1m-1m3f) but his form for Mike Smith since last summer has been disappointing, and the soft ground is a big worry on this hurdle debut; cheekpieces removed. |

Still 5lb above his last winning mark and all five wins have come over 1m on the AW, including two here; hard to recommend over this trip. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |

Sits third, one place behind Aisling Oscar, in the All Weather Horse of the Year standings after his fine winter; yet to win at Wolverhampton but he has run well here; Billy Loughnane takes over tonight; each-way shout. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Normally starts slowly; goes well fresh so would like to have seen more on reappearance at Bath and didn't fare much better there four weeks ago; fourth is the best he's managed on AW; passed over. |
20/1 |
|
5th 1 (1) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He made a winning reappearance here in 2024 and 2025 so it's disconcerting he was well beaten on his comeback here 24 days ago, and he could do with breaking sharper; however, it's possible he needed the run this time and, having won three times last year, he's entitled to respect. |
7/1 |
|
9th 2 (1) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two of his eight wins have been over C&D and they were first time out in April 2024 and April 2025; two wins last summer ensure that he remains much higher in the weights but that reappearance record here is striking. |

9st 0lb |
C&D winner who made it 3-8 on AW when scoring over 7f here (cheekpieces added) in October; still looks feasibly treated on that form and she had an excuse when dropped to 6f from tough draw here last time; dangerous back up in trip. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Stays 1m but all eight of his wins have come over 7f, the latest at Kempton 18 days ago; should get a good pace to aim at and he holds each-way claims again. |
11/2 |
|
1st 7 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Well held after a slow start here (1m) 12 days ago but that was after two solid placed efforts at Lingfield (7f/1m); losing run is now up to 15 but he's on a dangerous mark and could get involved if he gets a good pace and some luck; cheekpieces removed. |

10th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Completed an AW hat-trick in the autumn of 2022, but despite having dropped below the marks he defied for his last two wins he has fallen just short of late; down another 1lb but others look more compelling. |
7/1 |
|
4th 5 (1) |
30th Aug 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won final three AW starts in 2022, at 7f and 1m; missed 2023 and slow to find form again but he gave way only late on at Kempton recently (first run following wind surgery) and too well treated to ignore. |
3/1 |
|
4th 12 (8) |
14th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Ended 2022 on a sharp upward curve but he missed 2023 and it's taken him a while to find his feet this year; latest third to Dutch Kingdom at Lingfield was better though and a subsequent wind operation could prompt another step forward. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Only start here produced a second over C&D (good to soft) in October and he got off the mark in a Lingfield classified (1m, AW) in January; not quite matched that in three starts since and yet to prove he's effective on quick turf; still can't be ruled out in a moderate contest. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (9) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well suited by switchback tracks and is 1-1 in this company following a 1m win here in January; suffered an overreach over C&D next time but still has stamina to prove back up in trip after an ordinary effort at Kempton (1m) latest. |
8/1 |
|
7th 8 (8) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
13th time lucky when landing a classified event at Lingfield (1m) last month; flopped back in a handicap there (1m2f) last time but he had an overreach on his right fore and he could bounce back on this drop back in trip. |

1st Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A mixed bag so far, going close at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in June and Sandown (1m, good to firm; first-time visor) the following month, but hasn't threatened in his other six starts; enough to prove especially in the conditions. |
14/1 |
|
9th 11 (11) |
10th Sep 2024 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Twice beaten half a length this summer, at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in June and at Sandown (1m, good to firm) in July; a player on those efforts, but he reportedly bled at Kempton last month which would be a concern. |
7/1 |
|
7th 10 (5) |
12th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Took his record to 0-6 but emerged with credit when second of ten at Sandown 12 days ago (1m, good to firm; visored first time), keeping on well; 2lb higher today but returning to Polytrack will be no issue and he's a leading contender. |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Turf winner as 2yo; missed all of 2025 but she's made hay off a much-reduced mark on AW for new yard, not needing much urging to complete the 6f hat-trick at Southwell in January; up 4lb but her best handicap form for previous yard was gained off a higher mark than today's; much respected. |
13/8 |
|
1st 1 (11) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Thrown in on her best form for Georgina Nicholls and she made it 2-2 for new connections with a Lingfield win that was more commanding than the winning distance might suggest; 1lb wrong under a penalty but surprising if there isn't a fair bit left in the tank. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (9) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Back from long absence when making all off a reduced mark on stable debut at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) three weeks ago; that was a narrow success but she held off a clear second and a 3lb rise looks fair; respected in her bid to make it 2-2 for James Owen. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

None too consistent and he has been well beaten on his last two starts; has the lowest BHA rating in the field and has to concede weight all round so he looks up against it. |
7/1 |
|
3 (11) |
10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Blew hot and cold for his former stable and it has been a similar story for James Owen, his win at Southwell and second over 1m here surrounded by lesser efforts; chance if on one of his good days; cheekpieces added to usual accessories. |
4/1 |
|
7th 7 (7) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Emphatic win on stable debut at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) early last month; disappointing in next two runs but he got back on track with a clear second at Kempton (hood reapplied) 11 days ago; on unchanged mark and has claims if he can back that up. |
