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. |

26th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Proved resurgent with close second at Yarmouth (1m) last week; scored twice over C&D in February; possibilities returned to this scenario, provided he backs up the latest effort. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (4) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won twice over 7f on AW in February and seemed to have emerged from worrying slump in form when sixth at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) this month; needs to build on that effort but is on a good mark and 1m also suits. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 (4) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Won a couple of 7f handicaps at Southwell in February; this mark in range judged on his second at Southwell in March but his last three runs have been poor and it is easy to have reservations at present. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-16 and he failed to beat a rival in 6f Windsor handicap last time after a very slow start; not one to rely on. |
8/1 |
|
12th 5 (1) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-15, albeit with competitive form off higher marks; easily best show this season was his Chepstow second on penultimate start; tried blinkers latest and now reverts to last season's cheekpieces; his yard won this race last year and a case can be made but others are more compelling. |
9/1 |
|
4th 5 (6) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-14 but has competitive form off higher marks and was runner-up over 5f here two weeks ago; won't be hindered by returning to 6f and blinkers might give him a lift. |

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. |

24th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Yet to win (0-12); twice placed since joining this trainer, including when a keeping-on third at Wolverhampton (7f; 16-1) three weeks ago; that form has been boosted by the winner and fourth; wide draw to overcome in stall 12. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 5 (8) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Bettered underwhelming stable debut when rallying third in maiden handicap at Carlisle (nearly 7f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; recent 3lb drop is helpful and this return to Tapeta should suit; shortlisted. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 2 (9) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Well treated on his best form for Seb Spencer but he's been out of sorts in his last four runs including when last of eight on stable debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month; overall record is now 0-10 and he needs a major revival. |
