14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Couldn't justify good support but still shaped nicely when under 3l second of nine over C&D (good; 5-4) 17 days ago, running green when first coming under pressure; should have learnt from that first experience and may go one better. |

21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to win a handicap but not for a lack of effort and he ran well for second over C&D last month; perhaps stretched by 1m2f at Lingfield last month and he is one to take seriously back down in trip. |
3/1 |
|
11th 8 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Sole win came in a Lingfield maiden (6f, AW) a year ago, but is back off the same mark as when beaten half a length over C&D (good to firm) in May; soft ground not a problem and each-way claims if reproducing that form. |
12/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
6f AW maiden winner who seems to stay this trip; not at best on last three starts (hung left returned to AW last time) and will have to fare better if he's to win this. |

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 |
|
8 (3) |
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. |
12/1 |
|
8 (3) |
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. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed improved form when winning over this C&D in May and followed up at Leicester (1m2f, good) next time; raised 4lb for that latest success and she was held off this mark at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; may be high enough in the weights now. |
5/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 197y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Is enjoying an excellent season and bids for a hat-trick after back-to-back handicap wins at Chepstow (1m4f) and Leicester (1m2f) recently; up 4lb but big shout with promising 5lb claimer Ashley Lewis up. |
13/8 |
|
1st 3 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Posted her best effort when beating seven rivals at Chepstow (good to firm) on her first try over 1m4f 15 days ago, winning comfortably; unexposed over this sort of trip but she's now in a higher grade following a 6lb rise in the weights. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
3yo who returned to form in reapplied cheekpieces and a first-time tongue-tie (both retained) to win at Kempton (1m4f, Polytrack) last month; led on the line last time and this further increase in distance could be a positive; effective here and she's one to consider. |
3/1 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Course winner at 1m in February and she followed that with two close calls at the trip on Tapeta and turf; no progress since returning from a short break, though, and she has some holes in her case up in distance with returning cheekpieces replacing a visor and a tongue-tie added. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Dual 7f winner last summer (good to firm/AW); made low-key seasonal debut over 6f last month and not ideally drawn here but still quite lightly raced, and that recent outing ought to have brought him on. |
12/1 |
|
9th 13 (15) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won twice over 7f when joining Stuart Williams last summer and he also ran well over 6f at Chelmsford; absent since a lesser effort at Leicester last September; stable also runs Rebel Path. |
16/1 |

8th 10 (10) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Had his yard debut sewn up from some way out on this track (7f, good to firm) in July but subsequently faded over 1m here; on the upgrade on Chelmsford AW since, showing plenty of dash on the drop to 6f but reeled in late, then ridden more patiently and finally getting to the front over 7f there since; has potential back at 6f on return to turf. |

Several places last year for Sean Woods but none in six starts for this yard and he's now 0-18; off since February and goes beyond 7f for first time. |

6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Placed a few times on turf/Polytrack last year, but has regressed since joining this yard and now 0-17; look elsewhere. |

24th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-11 but was runner-up in two AW handicaps in January and he's finished placed on turf (1m2f, good to firm) in his last two starts; edging back up the weights but he got crowded out in the closing stages at Newmarket last time and he looks worth a try at this new trip; in the mix. |

10st 3lb |
Four-time winner (all 1m4f on a sound surface) with three of those in blinkers, latterly at Catterick (good; made all) on his penultimate start; overdid it in the lead before beating one home at Goodwood 12 days ago but could bounce back; cheekpieces (second on all three attempts) are reapplied. |

Progress 4yo; won at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) in April and added to that success at Catterick (1m4f, good) 29 days ago, making all under Poppy Scott; can't be dismissed off this 2lb higher mark. |

9st 6lb |
It was his second handicap when beaten about 5l in first-time blinkers at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) latest, easily his closest finish but fading into fifth of nine and he needs a good deal better; 5lb claimer now. |

Unable to justify prominence in the betting when well-held seventh on recent seasonal/handicap debut at Redcar (1m2f, good) and connections now reach for blinkers; has a point to prove. |

9st 7lb |
A stout stayer over 1m and Salisbury's stiff test suited him in May (good) where he overcame trouble in running to lead near the line; has had excuses since but he has a good run in him if this is truly run. |

3rd 2 (2) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Record of 4-9 in 1m events on turf, most recently scoring at Salisbury on penultimate start; well held in competitive 1m2f event latest; drop back to ideal trip is the angle with him. |
