1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Scored over 5f here last April; without a victory since though and beat only one on the back of a wind operation in 5f Hamilton handicap last time; others appeal more. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |

Below par in three AW outings this year and a return to turf and first-time blinkers failed to spark a revival at Beverley in April; absent since (has had wind surgery for a second time). |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Five wins at 5f-7f, all on good and quicker ground; weighted to go well on the pick of his 2024 form and, following a promising reappearance, perhaps refitting a tongue-tie didn't help at Windsor since; in contention. |
16/1 |

26th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
His last win was off 1lb higher at Goodwood (6f, good) last June; 0-9 since but he returned from wind surgery with a creditable effort at Nottingham (close fifth) 16 days ago and has possibilities if he can build on that; tongue-tie reapplied. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Capable 5f performer on his day but has not made the frame in six runs this year; a slow start meant he couldn't adopt his usual front-running tactics at York five weeks ago, and his mark is tumbling, but he's risky. |
20/1 |
|
19th 4 (18) |
20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Smart front-runner on his day; the handicapper took a dim view of his Beverley win last September and he has found it tough going this time around, including at Redcar 11 days ago after a wind op; he is well handicapped again now though and should have a big run in him if his high draw proves no hindrance. |

30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains a chunk of ability and considerable enthusiasm, winning for the fourth time this year when beating six rivals at Pontefract (5f, good to firm) last month; runner-up back at Pontefract two weeks ago; this might prove too demanding though. |
25/1 |
|
2nd 1 (1) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
He couldn't get into it in a big field at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last Monday but he didn't enjoy an ideal passage and went there on a four-timer following three wins here (6f/5f, good/good to firm); this 9yo could play a leading role back at Pontefract. |
5/1 |
|
13th 1 (16) |
10th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
C&D winner who has had a fantastic run this year, winning his last four races on good to firm ground, over 6f and 5f; at the age of nine he seems to be closing in on his best-ever form and he has won off a slightly higher mark than today's in the past; Oisin Murphy up for the first time; much respected. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; only 2lb higher here, but has mixed record since that last success and he was down the field at Beverley last time; others are more persuasive. |
11/2 |
|
6th 5 (9) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; respectable fifth of ten at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago but he remains 4lb above the mark he defied at Haydock. |
11/1 |

5th 1 (1) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; struggled at York last time but that was a highly competitive Class 4 event and he was runner-up here (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; has claims if he can recapture that form and he's not ruled out on this drop back in grade. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Well handicapped on his Sandown win (5f, good) last July but has mixed record since and he's been well held in three runs this year; now drops back in grade but he needs to get back on track. |
20/1 |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has won just once since April 2024, at Sandown (5f, good; from 6lb higher) last July; joined this trainer soon after for 15,000gns, and runner-up on stable debut; nowhere near his best in three starts this year, including when twelfth of 20 at York (6f; 50-1) latest. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Smart in his pomp; 2026 has been a struggle but he has dropped 19lb in the weights and is now eligible for Class 6 company; too much ability to discount but he is looking increasingly moody in the early part of his races. |
10/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was off 15lb higher in July 2025; threatened only once from seven starts this term, in a small field three runs ago, and soon got detached on last two outings, so others are readily preferred. |
10/1 |

11th 11 (12) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Well suited by 5f on quick ground; two runs for new stable, finishing third at Sandown last month before winning at Newmarket three weeks ago; 3lb rise still leaves him feasibly weighted. |
5/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
6yo who is well handicapped on last season's best efforts for Michael Bell and made quite an encouraging start for his new yard when third of seven at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago, particularly as he was tight for room against the rail; given a chance to build on that with Billy Loughnane taking the reins this time. |
5/2 |

3rd 2 (6) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

6yo who is well handicapped on last season's best efforts for Michael Bell; however, it was a winless campaign and he failed to threaten at Yarmouth in April on his sole run this year; changed hands for 18,500gns last month and he needs to get back on track on this stable debut. |

9st 8lb |
Finally ended a 49-race losing run at Southwell (5f, AW) in January; now 2lb lower than for that success and this company is much easier than that he normally keeps, but his record of 1-47 on turf still makes him hard to warm to. |

Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and posted a respectable effort at Newmarket (5f, good) last month; however, he was down the field at Ascot (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago and is now just 1-46 on turf; others preferred. |

9st 1lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and he is just 1lb higher today; solid effort at Newmarket 17 days ago when not ideally positioned; each-way claims at a track where he has run well in much better races than this one. |
