3rd 7 (3) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has generally been consistent this year, winning for the first time on turf at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April; recorded a rare blip at Leicester last month but back on track when runner-up at Ayr (7f, good to firm) 12 days ago; respected. |

2nd 4 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Some good form this spring prior to winning at Musselburgh (7f, good) last month; flopped at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago but he shouldn't be written off today. |
13/2 |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Gained a deserved victory in 7f Musselburgh handicap ten days ago; up 2lb but this consistent front-runner ought to be in the shake-up again. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-7 on turf but only beaten just over a length in her last two starts, the latest when second of eight at Redcar (7f, good) this month; that form is working out well and respected off 1lb higher. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 5 (2) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
AW winner as a juvenile but has drawn a blank in eight handicaps since; latest fourth of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) was creditable but underlines she needs a bit more from this mark. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made it two wins in her last three starts in 7f Wolverhampton handicap last month; up 5lb and needs to reproduce it on her first turf run since her debut. |
3/1 |
|
1st 8 (1) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark at the tenth attempt with a narrow win over C&D last month; only 2lb higher here but she was disappointing when favourite at Southwell last time and needs to step up again after that. |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Warm favourite for his Newcastle debut in November but could only manage fourth; no real progress since and although he should be sharper with a recent run behind him, he does have a bit to prove now upped to a mile and fitted with a visor. |
12/1 |
|
3 (5) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
No progress in 6f AW events in late 2024; however, may be capable of better now handicapping over new trip on turf; market should offer further guidance on reappearance. |

20th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Lightly raced filly who's put together two good efforts at Carlisle (7f and 1m; both on soft) on recent starts; shouldn't be far away off the same mark as last time; unraced on quicker than good to soft since debut. |
6/1 |

5th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Got back on track when fourth of ten in 7f handicap here 19 days ago; she needs considering off a 1lb lower mark in her bid for a maiden victory. |
9/2 |

16th Jun 2025 Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |

Showed best form when second in a 6f nursery at Newcastle in December (40-1); well beaten on only start this year (6f, good to soft); plenty to prove. |

7th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Six-race maiden who shaped as if she would appreciate the return to this trip when fourth in a classified event at Thirsk (6f, good) 251 days ago after stumbling leaving the stalls; absent since. |
12/1 |
|
4th 9 (3) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Down the field in three 6f maidens; no improvement for the step up to 7.4f in a couple of Beverley handicaps this summer; drops in grade with Paul Mulrennan booked; not discounted. |
10/1 |
|
6th 6 (8) |
13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Didn't show a great deal in three maidens and was never involved when seventh of 11 on handicap debut over C&D (good to firm; 33-1; Mavetheforcebewivu fourth) last month; one of the least exposed in the field but improvement is required. |

Weak in the market (200-1) and tailed off on debut here (1m) two weeks ago; now drops back 2f in distance; difficult to recommend. |

Little show in his six starts to date and he failed to beat a rival in 5f Wetherby handicap when last seen out in June; he's very hard to make a case for. |
