3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
4lb higher than her last winning mark but Jack Callan's claim will help in that respect and it was a good run last time at Wolverhampton (finished upside Exquisitive Acclaim) given she was never ideally positioned out the back; could go well provided stall 11 isn't a killer. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Latest win was C&D in October and she twice went close in November; ran respectably on next four starts but no show when favourite in the Southwell race won by Dosman on latest; cheekpieces (worn last three outings) are removed. |

Strike-rate of 5-20 and has continued to perform respectably in defeat, from 7f to 1m2f (cheekpieces added the last twice); looks handicapped about right now but unlikely to be far away. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Had a productive time of things in 2025 when the visor went on, winning on four occasions, including over this C&D last June; well beaten on the AW at Newcastle in November and he was too free on his comeback run at Ripon (1m2f, good) 19 days ago; may take a step forward from that but will need to. |
12/1 |

9st 9lb |
Had a highly productive time on turf last season including four wins (1m1f/1m2f) and four seconds; struggled in his hat-trick bid in November but that was on AW and he still looks feasibly treated on his penultimate form; interesting contender who needs a close look on return. |

28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back on form when second in a C&D handicap last month; possibly unsuited by a drop to 6f for the first time in well over two years when seventh at Kempton since; good shout if recapturing the previous C&D form. |

4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Raced over further since handicapping and his sole success came over 1m last May; second of seven at Lingfield last time (7f), well positioned in a race that was steadily run to halfway; on a competitive mark but dropping to 6f is the query. |
7/1 |

2nd 6 (8) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Well handicapped on his Newcastle win (1m) last May but he's hard to predict and was beaten 10l at Southwell (7f) last time; that took his record to 1-23 and others are preferred. |

Difficult to win with in recent years, now 7lb lower than when last successful at Southwell (1m) in August 2024; met trouble when sixth (beaten over 4l) here on penultimate start, but latest Leicester effort was less encouraging. |

It's now 17 outings since his last success but he arrives on the back of a respectable sixth of 11 in 1m Newcastle handicap last month; easing in the weights and no forlorn hope. |

Off the mark in 1m novice on Lingfield AW in December but he's found it harder in handicaps this year and his recent runs back at Lingfield leave him with work to do on his Tapeta debut. |

Landed a novice over C&D last December but has blown hot and cold in handicaps in the meantime; drops into a Class 6 and needs the return to this surface to help galvanise him. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Successful on Jersey in May and followed up over 1m2f on AW here in June; his two subsequent efforts have been poor and tries a change of headgear (first-time blinkers in place of cheekpieces) in a bid to get back to form. |

6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |

Sole turf win was in Jersey this May, preceding a Lingfield AW win in June; tailed off at Newcastle eight days later, which she needs to bounce back from, but the string of seconds (three on good to firm) at this time last year makes this look a good mark. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Fourth on all four appearances at Brighton; 29 races overall, with both his wins on Southwell AW last March/September; thrown in on that form but he was out of form this winter and on recent return to turf after five months off; others have more pressing claims. |
20/1 |

10th 15 (7) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins have been gained at Southwell (6f/7f) but he was out of sorts there in his final three runs last year; on lower mark back on turf but he's 0-8 in this sphere and has something to prove after five months off. |

29th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

Respectable fourth over 6f at Brighton last time but shaped as if he ideally needs a return to 7f, which is his usual trip; still has a poor strike-rate. |

10th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't won since landing a three-timer in the summer of 2023; has struggled in handicaps this year but stayed on well up in trip when third of 12 in a classified at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) nine days ago; needs to step up back in a handicap. |

1st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Only one piece of worthwhile form since completing a turf hat-trick in the summer of 2023 and has never attempted this far before, but she drops into this company for the first time; market support would be interesting. |

Readily saw off eight rivals at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month but he's been disappointing in both subsequent runs; has something to prove again and he has form figures of 5097 at Bath. |
