8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Two wins for Kevin Ryan and latest was at York (5f, soft) last October, but he has form figures of 60859 for new yard this season; now 6lb lower than for his last win but he needs a transformation back up in trip; headgear removed. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Had some solid 2yo form for Kevin Ryan and hinted at a revival at Yarmouth on his penultimate start; dropped away tamely under suitable conditions at Sandown on Saturday though and headgear is now reached for; AW debut. |
16/1 |

30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Recent rain is a tonic with his 2yo wins having come on good to soft and soft; slow start for this stable and he was again well beaten in a Racing League event at Yarmouth five weeks ago when encountering soft ground again; he was poorly drawn there though and did best of the three who stayed near side; has a dangerous mark and stable is going well. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won on 2yo debut at Ayr (6f, good) in July 2024 but he's 0-18 since and was always in rear at Southwell three weeks ago; continues to drop down the weights but he needs a transformation back on turf; first-time cheekpieces replace blinkers. |
25/1 |

13th 4 (10) |
26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Winless since his 2yo debut and with his fourth yard already; signs of life on debut for his new trainer at York and this is easier on his AW debut (brother to a dual course winner), so he is one to consider off a career-low mark under experienced 5lb claimer Cian Horgan. |
16/1 |
|
9th 6 (5) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Hard to fancy on recent efforts with no better than a tenth-placed finish in his last five starts; however, he could be revived by a recent stable switch (from Seb Spencer) and he's fully 18lb lower than when eighth in the 5f handicap at Royal Ascot last summer; worth monitoring in the market. |

Without a victory since 2024 and he arrives well below par; reared and unseated rider at the start in 6f Wolverhampton handicap 15 days ago. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Decent 2yo who proved hard to place last year and has again lacked consistency this spring; the blinkers come off as he makes his AW debut off a career-low mark and it's hard to know what to expect in truth. |
14/1 |
|
7th 6 (4) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |

Won twice at Chester as a 2yo; just missed out over C&D last month (blinkers first time) when finding only Betweenthesticks too strong; ran okay at Beverley next time and he was drawn wide when disappointing back there ten days ago; stable also run Changeofmind. |

27th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Won the Woodcote at Epsom's Derby meeting (6f, good to soft); struggled afterwards but back on track with a near miss off 3lb lower at Chester (5f, soft); that was a Class 4 and this is a Class 2, so likely to need more. |

8st 12lb |
Won on heavy ground last September and bagged a big-field handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) this May when 3lb higher than today; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and others have more compelling claims. |

7th 5 (9) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Losing run stands at 14; twice a runner-up at Kempton over the winter (6f) but he hasn't beaten many rivals in five starts since April; return to 5f, drop in class and latest change of headgear not enough to tempt. |
25/1 |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark in 6f novice at Salisbury as 2yo but he's had some seriously poor results either side of wind surgery, failing to beat a rival on last four starts; visor replaces cheekpieces; hard to see the light. |

12th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Won 6f turf novice as 2yo; finished placed in three of first four AW starts for this yard but he's been through difficult times since the spring, including when back from wind surgery latest; now in cheekpieces; risky. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Best form at 6f on good or quicker ground, adding two more wins this year, but he's stuck on a 5lb higher mark than the latest success at Ripon in August; another upward push is needed. |
25/1 |
|
11th 4 (4) |
28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Gained a second success of 2026 at Ripon (6f) this month and backed it up with a good third of 14 in Great St Wilfrid there 13 days ago; well in the mix off the same mark. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
15th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
In good form this year, winning a big-field handicap at York (6f, good) in May and adding a C&D handicap 12 days ago (good ground; Dark Cloud Rising second); up 5lb in a stronger race and it could find him out. |

Third of 17 at York (5f, good to firm) in July then runner-up at Thirsk (5f, good); merely mid-division at York most recently but the good to soft ground may have been against him; one to consider on AW debut. |
11/4 |

5f nursery win (good to firm; trained by Bryan Smart) in 2024; missed 2025 but he retains all his ability and has run three good races in defeat this year; looks well up to winning off this mark and he's one to take seriously. |

0-11 but she's had plenty of close calls including at Doncaster (5f, good) on her penultimate run; looks interesting if she can recapture that form and she seems fairly versatile ground-wise. |
