12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Chepstow winner in May over 1m2f and made a winning AW debut here over 1m3f in June (had the hood removed); raised 6lb for that success but he should have no problem with the extra furlong and has good claims. |
9/2 |

1st 8 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has endured a couple of lengthy absences in his seven-race career but showed the ability remains when successful in a first-time hood (now removed) at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) last month; half-brother to a couple of AW winners and shortlisted; stable also runs Mathematician. |

Has mixed record in his six starts but he added to his debut win for the Crisfords when landing a Chepstow handicap (1m2f, good to soft; hood applied) last month; up 4lb but he beat a clear second last time and he still has potential; shortlisted. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His last two 7f wins came off just a 1lb lower mark, most recently in February, but he wasn't at his best in two runs last month on turf and the AW; others higher up the list. |
14/1 |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won off 3lb lower at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February; good second over 6f at Newcastle next time but his form has cooled in last two starts; bit to prove again and he needs to bounce back near best. |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins have been at 7f but he was a good second over this trip at Newcastle on AW finals day; didn't pack the same punch when fifth at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time but he's still unexposed as a sprinter and is not ruled out back in trip. |

8st 12lb |
Won 1m2f Bath novice as 2yo but just middling form from the front here of late, over 1m2f, 7f and 6f; dropping down the weights but this is competitive and the other two from the yard look more interesting. |
20/1 |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Only win was in a 1m2f novice at Bath (heavy) for Marcus Tregoning in October 2024; tried at various trips by Jim Goldie, best run when third over 7f here two weeks ago (good to firm; made the running); interesting on her first run at 6f. |

Yet to strike form after four runs for new stable this year (1m-1m2f) and her only win was gained over 1m2f on heavy ground; continues to slip down the weights but drops back to 7f with quite a bit to prove. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Smart efforts in defeat at Listed/Group 3 level last season but hasn't come close to reproducing that form returned to handicaps this season, including with cheekpieces added last time; being eased another 3lb can only help but leap of faith needed. |
20/1 |
|
11th 8 (13) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won on soft as 2yo; reappearance win last April saw him pitched afterwards into Listed and Group events, in which he was initially on the premises but his handicap mark shot up as a result; ninth of 12 to Respond at Chester wasn't a greatly auspicious return to handicap company on reappearance this season and connections now reach for headgear. |

Highly tried after making a winning reappearance at Nottingham (1m2f, good) a year ago; proven fresh, but hard to know how well treated he is for this return to handicap company. |

Showed steady progress in turf maidens (final effort has substance); well held, having failed to settle, in 1m2f AW nursery last time but may resume improvement back at 1m. |

10th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Well-bred colt who has improved with each of his three runs and was beaten less than 3l when fifth in a Bath maiden (1m, good) last month; now takes another step up in trip and he needs a close look on nursery/AW debut. |
7/1 |

Reached the frame on second start, when upped to 7f at Musselburgh in August, but it wasn't strong form and he's another who would prefer the ground to dry out. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Both wins came at Nottingham (1m2f) in July last year, but has been unplaced in all ten outings since despite a declining mark; down another 2lb and headgear is removed, but probably best watched for now. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Won two in a row at Nottingham (1m2f, good/good to soft) last summer; out of sorts this term but this sort of trip (attempted just the twice, ran well once) could be something to clutch at, as well as another career-low mark. |
7/1 |

6th 6 (4) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won two in a row at Nottingham (1m2f, good/good to soft) last summer but she's been out of sorts this season and failed to beat a rival at Nottingham last time; now 8lb lower than for her last success but she needs to turn things around. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Hampered by faller and pulled up at Lingfield in May, and withdrawn here three days later when jockey had concerns over how filly was moving and was not prepared to ride; however, she was just 7-2 at the time of withdrawal and this C&D winner is capable of playing a leading role off her last winning mark. |
6/1 |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Versatile sort who won three times last year including at Leicester (1m, good to firm) and over C&D (heavy); now 2lb lower than for her AW win in December but things have not gone well in two runs this season; got hampered by a faller when pulled up at Lingfield on Tuesday but she needs a major revival back at this track; yard also runs Neptune Legend. |
14/1 |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Bath (5.5f, heavy) and Kempton (6f, AW) last year, but she beat only one rival home at Kempton last month following a 63-day break; has won over 1m so this step back up in trip will be no issue, and she won't be inconvenienced by any rain. |

Acts on good and soft ground; record of 4-15 and his wins were in handicaps last season, including over C&D; still 8lb higher than for his last success but he was runner-up at Thirsk in April and did best of the pacesetters when fourth at Haydock (7f, good) last time; returns after a break and he's in the mix on this drop back in trip. |

Out of a Listed/Group 2 winner; 14-1, made a low-key start over 7f on Chelmsford AW last month and although he could come on plenty for the run the more likely outcome is that he'll need this, too. |
