15th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Heavy ground the likely reason for his modest effort at Chester (1m2f) last month, but was only been beaten a neck over the same trip at Epsom (good) the time before; record on the AW reads 321 and stable 31-131 (24%) here in past five seasons; respected. |

30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
1-15 in handicaps, with the win on Lingfield AW (AW) last November but he's often been thereabouts, including on turf; bang there on Wolverhampton AW on both outings this term, the latest just three days ago; player. |
9/2 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |

Won twice, including over C&D; most encouraging when runner-up over C&D four weeks ago on his return from a break and should go close here. |

2nd 7 (12) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |

Novice winner who doubled his tally by a head over Lingfield's 1m2f in November; could go well off 3lb higher if ready to rock after his break. |

9st 4lb |
2023 novice winner; 0-10 since, pipped over C&D in November but beating only one home in 1m4f Southwell handicap 20 days ago; needs to bounce back and, having worn cheekpieces on those last two starts, he now sports a visor. |

20th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Consistent sort who has been knocking on the door recently, latest when second of nine at Lingfield (1m2f; 9-2) last month when beaten a head in first-time cheekpieces (retained); steps back up in trip and holds claims. |

24th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Won juvenile hurdle at Musselburgh (1m7f, soft) on New Year's Day and made the frame in Listed race and series final over that C&D on next two starts (both good to soft); has fitness to prove after six-month absence but could still have more improvement to come over hurdles. |
11/2 |
|
4th 2 |
21st Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 87y Class 2 |
11st 13lb |
Fairly useful Flat racer who beat Maple to open his hurdling account here (1m7f, soft) in January and has since been placed in a Listed race over that trip here (good to soft); likely to make his presence felt. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
1st Feb 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Upped in class but has Musselburgh form, having raced over C&D in both attempts over hurdles, winning the latest; still unexposed in this sphere and could go well. |

28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Returned to form to win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last month, scoring at that venue for a third time; has shown ability on turf and is not ruled out but his 0-6 record on grass isn't particularly convincing. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
12th May 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual course winner last year who's slid to a dangerous mark, being 5lb lower than when favourite for a similar race over C&D in January; said to have hung left when below market expectations last time and goes back to cheekpieces from a hood. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Narrow C&D winner (Class 4; 12-1) in November and, broadly speaking, has acquitted himself respectably since; stamina was likely overstretched at Wolverhampton (1m4f) latest; it's interesting that Jack Callan (1-1) returns to the saddle from just 1lb above that winning mark. |
4/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
1m2f and 1m4f AW winner, including on Tapeta; backed up November's Newcastle success with a respectable third at Lingfield last month; was below that level at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) latest; drops 1lb and can be competitive if he acts at this track. |

15th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't had much go right in his last two starts and is best known for his Polytrack exploits, as when successful off 4lb higher at Kempton (1m3f) in April; finished second of 14 over this C&D as a 3yo, though, so certainly one to be interested in. |
11/2 |
|
8th 1 (11) |
2nd Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
All three wins have been on Polytrack and last two have been off higher marks over C&D; has mixed record since his last success in April but he was creditable fourth of 13 here last time and has claims if he can built on that. |
6/1 |
|
4th 4 (12) |
25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not far behind Ludo's Landing at Beverley before a poor show at Epsom (soft); now 0-13 on turf but he's 3-12 on the AW and that includes a C&D success; nothing wrong with his mark. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Placed twice since dropped back to 1m last month, more recently when very close third (just behind The Sweet Escape) at Leicester (1m, good to firm) nine days ago; competes off same mark here; big player if new cheekpieces have any positive effect. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 1 (10) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Without a win since 2024 but he got right back on track when second of ten in 1m Ripon handicap two weeks ago; up 2lb but well in the mix. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 9 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Last turf win was here (1m2f, good to soft; from 6lb higher) in June 2024; fair third at Wolverhampton (8.5f; 10-1) on penultimate start but took a backward step at Doncaster (1m2f) subsequently; easing mark isn't enough to tempt. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Boasts a good record at Pontefract, where he should have notched a fourth win early last month, and today's similarly stiff 1m2f should suit; not as consistent now, unsurprisingly given his age, but is still more than capable at this level. |
8/1 |
|
2 (8) |
18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Unraced here; goes particularly well at Pontefract where he just failed to catch Star Start over 1m2f last time; stays this far and should be on the scene. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
9yo who has an excellent record at Pontefract, most recently taking advantage of a reduced mark in a 1m2f amateurs' event in June under Serena Brotherton; back up 4lb and well beaten at Haydock latest but has to be of interest back here unless the ground is softer than good. |

Multiple 7f-8.5f winner who fared better than seemed likely when dropped to 6f at Redcar (good to firm; half-length second) last week; fighting chance off same mark. |

2nd 8 (4) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |

His fine 2025 season was always going to be a tough act to follow and he has generally struggled since his return to action in December; should be well treated but drops to 6f for the first time in his career. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Prominent racer; three heavy defeats from four runs for his new stable in 2025 but the other run saw him spring a 40-1 surprise at Doncaster; blinkers join the eyeshields today but he drops to 6f for the first time on his 39th start. |

5th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Heavy defeats on his first two starts for this yard but he popped up at 40-1 when scrambling home at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; first-time eye-shields) three weeks ago; 3lb rise less of a concern than his trainer putting one of the reasons for that success down to quick ground. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Promising start to his career and he's tumbled down the weights, but for good reason; makes stable debut following a long absence and a major turnaround is necessary. |

25th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |

0-6 since debut success and has a dismal record in handicaps; chance depends on whether physical tweak (wind surgery since last run) prompts a turnaround. |
