12th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Half-sister to the yard's leading sprinter Big Evs; built on her debut experience when winning at Newcastle (6f, AW) in November; off since but she's open to further improvement now stepping back up in trip on handicap debut. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
C&D winner twice in February, before only just failing to catch the winner back here in hat-trick bid; work to do with Jimmy Speaking from Doncaster (fifth), with recent Thirsk effort - last of 12 - hardly a ringing endorsement. |
5/1 |
|
12th 8 (1) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Arrives in good form, winning twice at Southwell in February and finding only another thriving rival too strong in his hat-trick bid last month; only fifth of 16 back on turf at Doncaster three weeks ago (behind It'sneverjustone); perhaps too high in the weights for now. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (4) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
May remain competitive provided his recent Southwell AW form is transferred back to turf; however, his record in this sphere, which includes a seller win, is less convincing; presents a dilemma. |

9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
11-race maiden who isn't progressing; has run well over C&D on a couple of occasions this year but he looks opposable on balance. |
12/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ten-race maiden; three good runs from four attempts for his new stable but he will need to pull out extra if he is to break his duck. |
12/1 |
|
8 (9) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ran poorly in a Class 5 over C&D 18 days ago (cheekpieces on for the first time) but prior to that he had run two solid races for his new yard, including over C&D; unraced on slower than good. |

13th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ran well on her handicap debut at Southwell last month (6f) and another creditable effort when third in a Wolverhampton novice 16 days ago; a stiff 5f could prompt extra but it needs to. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
25th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Couldn't cope with an unexposed and well-handicapped opponent at Southwell on her nursery debut ten days ago but her second still represented improvement; solid candidate back at this level. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 9 (6) |
15th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
took keen hold, prominent early, in touch with leaders after 1f, outpaced 2f out, headway over 1f out, went second towards finish, no match for winner |

Some decent runs in Britain last winter over 6f though didn't progress; market can help after a long absence. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed a couple of times over 1m on turf last year, but ran poorly returned to the AW at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) four weeks ago and now 0-8; others preferred. |
20/1 |
|
9th 12 (13) |
25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who was a very close third of seven at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) last month and again finished third at Redcar (1m, good) last Tuesday, behind comfortably winner Just Typical who now carries a 5lb penalty; could be thereabouts. |
12/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Showed best form on second handicap start (also second run in a hood) when close third to a subsequent winner at Doncaster last time (1m, good to firm; sixth also won next time); unexposed sort who may improve further; chance. |
