22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Began the season with two dominant 5f wins on AW; well short of his best on last three starts and there are risks attached, despite his favourable mark. |

8th 3 (8) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Began the season with two dominant 5f wins on AW; well short of his best on last two starts (6f, good and AW); returning to 5f won't hurt and the return of cheekpieces could perk him up; can't discount. |
8/1 |

13th 2 (4) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Began the year with a pair of impressive 5f handicap wins on AW (here and at Southwell) and he didn't have ideal track position when finishing in midfield in a Naas Listed event in April; too bad to be true at York last time; equally effective at 5f and 6f; remains of interest. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Mixed results in higher grades on turf of late; has a better strike-rate (4-10) on AW and looks interesting returned to this sphere off 1lb below last winning mark. |
10/1 |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Never in contention in the Ayr Silver Cup last week; mark not beyond him judged on this year's best but he has few secrets now. |
20/1 |
|
18th 21 (17) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Has a useful strike-rate on the AW but just 1-18 on turf; suffered some interference over C&D on his latest 6f start in July but he looks to have his share of weight relative to the company he keeps today. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
7f winner on Newcastle AW in March; back on turf for the first time since last October but he's 8lb lower today and he does act on grass; however, jockey bookings suggest Highfield Viking is the stable preferred. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Wins have been over 6f on turf and 7f on the AW (Newcastle); has been running well for a while and latest effort back at Newcastle was better than it looks. |
5/1 |
|
7th 10 (10) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Record of 2-20 but his last win was over C&D last month and he was only beaten 2l behind Anthropologist here last time; remains feasibly treated on his best form and he has possibilities. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Three course wins in the first half of the year, the latest (6f, good) off a 3lb lower mark; his form has dipped on his last two starts but a revival wouldn't be a great surprise. |
8/1 |
|
7th 7 (3) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Three wins at Catterick this spring (7f/6f, good); reportedly never travelling when below par there at the end of May and has had a break since; runner-up here in 2024 on sole previous Haydock visit; not ruled out. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 143y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won three times over 5f in 2025; got back on track in first-time cheekpieces with fourth of ten in 6f Chester handicap in June; no forlorn hope off a 2lb lower mark here with headgear retained. |
9/1 |
|
4th 4 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Acts on good to soft and softer but his best form is at 5f and latest last of six at Haydock needs forgiving; cheekpieces go on after that; nothing wrong with this mark if they do have a positive effect, however. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Didn't see out 8.6f when sixth here this month but finished close up off today's mark on consecutive 7f Polytrack starts in the spring and has possibilities on this drop back in trip. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (6) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; on last winning mark; two good runs on Polytrack this spring but his form dipped at Kempton six weeks ago; chance with a revival. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Knocking on the door with increasing vigour and went down by just half-a-length in a 0-80 here three weeks ago (7f); no issue with returning to further (has won over 8.6f) and a 2lb rise is justified; claims. |

Won by a length under Cara Tuke over C&D last week (good to soft) and escapes a penalty for that; that was a return to form and she can put a sequence of solid efforts together. |

Dual turf winner for Charles Hills, but lightly raced and has shown little for this yard; refusing to race here in November; tongue-tie is given a go. |
