9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Campaigned mostly over 6f, winning four times for previous yard; 2-5 on grass; mixed results on AW for new stable; ran respectably in sole 7f attempt but chance of landing this hot handicap partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear. |
14/1 |

6th 10 (3) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Met all sorts of trouble when down the field behind Berkshire Whisper here 12 months ago; beaten in races won by reopposing rivals in all three starts for his new stable this winter; edging down the weights and has a good apprentice booked but others still appeal more. |
25/1 |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Quite a progressive sprinter on turf/AW, winning three times; suffered bad luck at Newcastle on Good Friday, then ran creditably to finish third at Newmarket (6f, good) last month; on same mark on this drop back in grade and he's respected. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Gained his final win for previous yard and sole placed effort for current stable over 7f; overall record at this trip is 2-5; gelded prior to never landing a blow in another 6f event on seasonal debut; could go well, with this step back up in distance a plausible plus. |

10th 6 (1) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Gained his final win for previous yard and sole placed effort for current stable over 7f; beaten favourite in Italian Listed race over 6f when last seen; gelded since; may ideally need a step back up in trip. |
14/1 |

3rd 11 (10) |
27th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Record of 2-4 over 7f includes a York success in June on final start for previous yard; still unexposed at this distance and now returns to it for first time since joining new connections; interesting. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Produced peak performance over C&D, namely close second to Elmonjed in Listed event; however, faces a stiffer assignment in this higher grade and his reappearance effort (heavy defeat in Newmarket Group 3) hardly bodes well. |
33/1 |
|
13th 3 (10) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 0-5 on turf compared to 2-3 on AW; admittedly registered his peak RPR in this sphere when second Elmonjed in York Listed contest (6f) on penultimate appearance; however, needs an even bigger effort to go one better in this field. |
20/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
3yo British raider beaten a head on first try in stakes company in a listed race at York three weeks ago (6f, good); seemed to handle soft on debut so should be fine if the ground eases; not discounted. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Campaigned over 7f of late, generally leaving the impression he needs a return to 6f; has gained both wins at this distance and he's very attractively treated off current mark; respected. |
8/1 |

6th 3 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Inconsistent and soundly beaten back on turf at Doncaster this month; however, this two-time turf winner was runner-up at Kempton (7f, AW) two starts ago and is not discounted off a dangerous mark. |
11/1 |

5th 2 (8) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A dual 6f scorer in first half of 2025 who was back on track when runner-up in 7f Kempton handicap in March; needs to back it up now returned to turf. |

Progressed this year in handicaps, beaten by half a length at Ffos Las (1m, good to soft) when in first-time cheekpieces; turn looks near but this is a higher grade. |

23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Six-race maiden; heading firmly in the right direction (form figures 642) in handicaps this term, beaten only half a length at Ffos Las (1m; wore cheekpieces) most recently; turn looks near. |
11/4 |

8 (3) |
30th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Still unexposed after only five runs and looked suited by the step up to 1m when fourth of 14 at Newbury (good) this month; can pose a significant threat if the new cheekpieces have any positive effect here. |

Oasis Dream half-brother to a French 1m4f winner; tailed-off last of eight on debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June; has since been gelded and left Michael Bell; plenty of improvement required. |

5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Disappointed as favourite in a 6f handicap here six weeks ago but he is well handicapped on his 3yo best and he was notably short in the betting prior to being withdrawn at Doncaster last month (bolted to post); headstrong sort but more than capable of playing a role if not overdoing it in the preliminaries. |
11/4 |

5 (12) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Progressive last spring, following a 5f AW win with a ready 6f win at this track (good to firm); mixed bag since then but his penultimate fourth at Wolverhampton was encouraging; failed to back it up ten days later but no doubt the ability is there and he's well handicapped now. |
7/1 |

6th 1 (3) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Not straightforward but ran well (close fourth) over C&D with reappearance under his belt; still 1lb below last winning mark; in the mix. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner last year; won again at Southwell in February (6f) but rather out of sorts since; back on his last winning mark. |
13/2 |
|
7th 5 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Game effort to win over C&D in February off 1lb lower; only run since came at Thirsk 12 days ago when easy to back and dropping right away in the race won by Eldeyaar; racecourse evidence suggests he will be much happier now back on AW. |
7/1 |

15th 8 (2) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Had the headgear left off when back to winning ways in 6f Southwell handicap 53 days ago; he's yet to show much in a handful of turf runs though, so needs to back it up. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Made the frame several times for her previous yard including on the AW, but modest so far in five starts for this yard and now 0-23; hard to fancy, even in this company. |

6th 8 (9) |
21st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Yard, who also run Lil Wade, ended a losing run early in the week; this longstanding maiden, who hasn't achieved much in four runs since leaving Ed Dunlop, isn't obviously fancied. |

10th 7 (10) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

21-race maiden; two low-key runs for current stable sandwich a fair sixth here in February (7f); others bring stronger claims. |

20th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Ability at a moderate level over 6f-7f on first three starts but below that having raced keenly on the outer on handicap debut over 8.6f last time; likely to do better. |
10/1 |
|
10th 3 (9) |
24th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Well held in three qualifying runs (7f/6f), most recently when fourth of five at Southwell (hood added) on recent return from a break; needs improvement at this new trip on handicap debut. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (3) |
15th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Out the back in a couple of soft-ground 7f runs last October; gelded since; wears a hood on his reappearance/AW debut but his pedigree doesn't point to sprinting being his game. |
