31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Losing run is mounting up but he's currently in a consistent vein of form; moved out of Ben Haslam's yard since last run; again has frame possibilities. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |

Arrives in decent nick without winning, fourth of nine in 1m handicap at Ripon 13 days ago; it's now 20 runs since his last victory however. |

In reasonably good form having made the frame in last three starts; however, still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf and this is a step back up in grade; 2lb out of weights. |

All six wins have been at this track (7f/1m) but he's been below his best here on his last three starts; may have needed the run here in July but others have stronger claims. |
33/1 |

25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

Bagged a fourth C&D success in February; off since a below-par seventh over C&D in March though so needs to hit the ground running. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Six-time course winner, including twice from the front over C&D this winter; 4lb higher than for his last win and he's never defied a mark this lofty, but the promising Harry Vigors takes off 7lb and he may make a bold bid. |

9st 7lb |
Eight AW wins, including under Conor Whiteley at Wolverhampton (1m6f) in May and Newcastle (1m4f) in June; failed to prove her effectiveness on turf on latest start and the trip this short is a concern, but she has to be respected back on AW. |
7/1 |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Eight AW wins, including at Wolverhampton (1m6f) and Newcastle (1m4f) under Conor Whiteley on her last two outings; has to prove her effectiveness on turf (well held in three attempts much earlier in career) but has to be respected in her current mood. |
2/1 |

Ex-Richard Fahey; seven-time AW winner, including two over C&D early last year; off the mark for current trainer at Wolverhampton last time (1m6f; form fair); up 2lb; should go well again. |

Eight times an AW winner but he has run just three times on turf and offered little on each occasion; plenty to prove. |

29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Last win away from Newcastle was in 2021; slow starts have been holding him back so both classified fourths over C&D this month can arguably be upgraded; chance rests largely on the start. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Tapeta specialist who returned from a short break with an eye-catching third at Newcastle (1m) two weeks ago; has claims if he can back that up, but he's 0-11 on turf and has had only one run in this sphere in his last 14 starts; mixed messages. |
8/1 |

3rd 2 (3) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins in the early part of 2025 including three over C&D; down to a handy mark again but he generally struggled during the winter and was beaten 11l at Wolverhampton (7f) last time; has something to prove after a short break and he needs a major revival back up in trip. |
7/1 |

6th 8 (9) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Four wins in the early part of 2025 (7f and 1m); down to a handy mark again and his penultimate effort was a step back in the right direction; disappointed 12 days ago (slowly away) but a revival isn't out of the question. |

All four wins over 7f, including twice in quick succession over 7f at Catterick (good) in May, but he was second on his previous C&D visit; returned to form when 2l fourth of five at Musselburgh (7f) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) three weeks ago but he remains 4lb above those winning marks. |
