27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Achieved little twice over hurdles before his third of five from the front over C&D two months ago when last seen; that was comfortably his best show on AW but he needs to find extra. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Achieved little over hurdles the last twice; four-time winner on Flat turf but is less solid on AW form and doesn't seem set to defy top weight. |

11th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |

Achieved nothing at Fakenham (2m4f) on the switch to hurdles but has the potential to do better, being a four-time Flat winner (fairly useful). |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
11st 7lb |
4-6 on good ground over hurdles, notching another personal best when returning from a break to win readily at Plumpton (2m; 15-2) last month; a 10lb rise demands further improvement but he's thriving and should encounter suitable conditions again. |
5/1 |
|
1st 7 |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Very progressive in completing a good-ground hat-trick last year and when third to Tutti Quanti in a Class 1 handicap at Newbury in November (soft); still on a competitive mark despite all that and for whatever reason he didn't show his true form at Kempton on final sighting at Christmas; if forgiven that, and he's had a break, then he enters the picture. |
5/1 |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 7f 157y Class 2 |
10st 12lb |
Pretty useful in 2024 on Flat; won on good ground at Huntingdon, Warwick and Market Rasen (2m1f) in all three of his handicap hurdles, with mistakes at the last two flights on latest outing but he'd travelled much the best and won by nearly 2l; up another 6lb and in class but he keeps looking as if he has more up his sleeve. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 4 |

Encouraging start for new stable culminated in Windsor success in April; has failed to back up that form in two starts since, last of three runners latest; rebound required. |
9/1 |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Low-key effort at Windsor four weeks ago but she'd begun her life with this yard with three good efforts, notably a 1m2f Windsor success on fast turf; considered. |
11/2 |
|
5th 10 (11) |
26th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Has shown steadily progressive form (421) this term for new yard, gaining a narrow win over C&D (good to firm) most recently; however, she's been campaigned largely in lower grades and now goes into deeper waters; got upset in stalls and was withdrawn at Newbury ten days ago. |

3rd Oct 2024 Heavy 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Acts on heavy; finally off the mark in 1m novice event at Windsor in June; folded tamely in 1m3f handicap at Glorious Goodwood next time and again weakened out of it at Kempton (1m3f, AW) five weeks ago; that's led to wind surgery and today's visor, and he'd be a contender if back to his best. |
7/1 |

6th 3 (4) |
28th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Finally off the mark in 1m novice event at Windsor in June; folded tamely in 1m3f contest at Glorious Goodwood since, not exactly convincing with his stamina, but he is bred to stay this far and may see it out better in this lower grade. |
11/2 |

7th 6 (5) |
2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Met all sorts of trouble on reappearance and has otherwise been in the frame every time; second off this mark at Haydock (1m, good) before getting off the mark by a neck in a novice at Windsor (1m, good to firm) five weeks ago; this marked increase in trip is interesting, including as his dam was a 1m3f winner and close relation to a King George winner at 1m4f. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Successful three times in May/June but his progress has seemingly come to an end; admittedly may benefit from this drop back in grade after a couple of Class 3 defeats. |
12/1 |

10 (5) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
In good form on turf until folding tamely and well held last time; consistent in defeat on AW (four attempts) but he's 9lb higher than last appearance in this sphere. |
16/1 |
|
3 (3) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive 4yo who has won three times this season (1m2f-1m4f, good to firm/good) and again ran well when third of five at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; there's every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

20th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
At his best as a hurdler when gaining his second win in this sphere, at Kempton (2m, good) in March; touched off at Ludlow next time but below his best up in trip at Plumpton (2m4f, good) last month; ridden on four of last five starts by Ciaran O'Shea; back to 2m and needs to return to form. |
5/1 |
|
5th 8 |
6th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Began to look exposed in the second half of last year but he showed improved form to win at Kempton (2m, good) on March 23 and was short-headed at Ludlow (2m, good) last Monday; he should be fine now back up in trip and could again be thereabouts. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 |
30th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Classy on the Flat back in the day; it had been a struggle in handicaps this season but, back from a break and dropped in grade, he won readily enough under Ciaran O'Shea at Kempton (2m, good) last week; escapes a penalty. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
Front-runner who regularly gives his all and was beaten off only on the run-in when third to Dance And Glance over C&D (good) five weeks ago; should make another bold bid but several of these look less exposed. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
11st 13lb |
Front-runner who was second over C&D (good) in December and bounced back from being pulled up in the William Hill Hurdle at Newbury (heavy) to make all in four-runner handicap at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft); has a career-high mark in this hotter race but he did it comfortably last time; could make a bold bid. |
8/1 |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 190y Class 3 |

Poached a nice advantage but unable to hold off a progressive rival at Haydock (2m, good; in added cheekpieces) on penultimate start; pulled up in deep in a Premier Handicap at Newbury (50-1) latest; chance back in calmer waters. |

Below-form third when favourite for the 7f nursery at the meeting last year; fourth in a Curragh Group 3 next time was good but she has suffered three heavy defeats in Listed races since (bled from the nose on reappearance); plenty of doubts after that and she looks on a stiff mark anyway. |

11st 1lb |
Won back-to-back races at Musselburgh (2m) and Les Landes (1m5f) in April but he's been generally disappointing since; on dangerous mark on this step back up in trip but needs to turn things around; tongue-tie added. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |

Won back-to-back at Musselburgh (2m) and Les Landes (1m5f) in April but has been below par of late; paid the price for doing too much too soon when a weakening fifth to Stellarmasterpiece (1m4f, here; beaten 2l) on penultimate start; easing mark helpful. |

26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Made all when winning in a small field at Musselburgh in April (2m, good) and he followed up in Jersey 19 days later; poor run at Doncaster last month but he bounced back with a solid effort at Catterick last week (1m4f, good to firm); shouldn't be far away. |

20th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
11-time AW winner but he's been out of sorts for new yard since December and was last of eight over C&D last time; mark is tumbling but he has lots to prove and needs a major revival. |
66/1 |
|
8th 6 (8) |
4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All 11 wins on the AW, including one over C&D, though his latest success for the Moores was in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta) in October; out of the frame in all four starts for this yard since then and may be best watched despite his declining mark. |
12/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

Prolific winner down the years; not fired in three runs for Chelsea Banham this winter; betting likely to guide if a revival is on the cards. |
