27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |

Left Charlie Johnston for 1,000gns; 150-1 on hurdle debut at Perth and performed accordingly. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Fairly useful four-time AW Flat winner for Charlie Johnston but 0-17 on turf for that yard; ran poorly at Lingfield (AW) 16 days ago and changed hands for 1,000gns since; best watched on hurdles debut. |

Four AW wins, including C&D, and returns from a six-month break on a manageable mark; more good runs than bad at this track and he's not discounted. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
C&D scorer in 2023 who also won at Epsom (made all; 3lb higher today) last August; 2026 performances don't look good enough, third of five on last two outings. |

3rd 1 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Small-field 6f affair not ideal last time and this is a bit easier back in the visor for the first time this season; last summer's easy Epsom win off 4lb lower (made all) showed he's at home round switchback tracks and he's one to consider. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed mare who is often slowly away; however, her form at the Newmarket July course features a success (over 7f) last summer and close third (over 1m) last week; may remain competitive. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can miss the break and has a patchy profile; bounced back with a close second over C&D (good to firm) last month but she hung left when fourth of six here (7f, good to firm) last time; hood is now added on this step back up in trip but she comes with risks attached. |

Can miss the break but she won this race last year off 10lb lower and swiftly got over a Chester aberration when second of 11 here (1m, good to firm) under Arron D'Arcy four weeks ago; a player. |

Fourth of 14 on second start for this yard at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in October suggested the ability remained, but losing run up to 18 despite a sliding mark; not sure a return to sprinting is the answer. |

11st 4lb |
1-25 on Flat, tailed off when last seen at Southwell in January; bit to prove on hurdling debut but this is not a strong contest and he would have a squeak if taking well to the new discipline. |

Back to form when second of eight in 1m handicap at Newmarket 13 days ago; this C&D winner take a big step back up in trip now and must enter calculations off a reduced mark. |
7/2 |

2nd 7 (4) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
His two Flat wins have been over 1m6f and 2m on AW; won over hurdles at Worcester last summer but he's been generally disappointing since, including in three Flat runs this season; continues to drop down the weights but he was sixth of seven over C&D last time and others are preferred. |

All five wins have been over 7f on AW but latest was 11 months ago; on dangerous mark but he ended last year on a low note and was tailed off on his hurdling debut last month; has rejoined Darryll Holland since that last run but he has some questions to answer; blinkers reapplied. |

8/1 |

5th 5 (7) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop and he made it 2-3 for current yard when landing novice amateurs' race at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up another 2lb but remains well treated on his old form, and four of his wins have come over this trip; leading contender. |
9/4 |

1st 3 (3) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 13y Class 5 |
10st 8lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop; lost his way in Ireland but bounced back to make a winning start for Tony Carroll at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft; fine on faster) last month; possibly found the run coming too soon when only fifth over 1m at Brighton six days later; probably stays 1m4f and retains handicapping scope on his best form. |

Sole win from 23 starts came on turf at Salisbury off 11lb higher last August; runner-up at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW; first-time blinkers) in March but he was disappointing over 1m2f here next time and was pulled up at Bath (1m, firm; reported to have moved poorly) when favourite 38 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

Arrives in top form, winning two of his last three starts (1m2f and 1m, good to firm; both wins at Brighton); up 5lb in a stronger race but he still makes some appeal; stable won this in 2020 and 2025. |

Went close at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) on reappearance and returned to form to win at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) recently; he likes that seaside venue and drops back in trip today, but he is capable of running well away from Brighton and at 1m, so he could be in the shake-up. |

Prolific last year, whereas his only win this season was in March; ran respectably penultimate start (AW) but not well enough in his other recent races and his record for amateur rider is discouraging; his three turf wins have all been on soft or good to soft. |
