6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Come to hand early in previous seasons but hasn't offered much in two runs back this time; now 11lb lower than when winning at Chelmsford last summer, which shows how things have gone since; needs a major revival. |
12/1 |

5th 3 (2) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Most of his success has come on AW but he showed at Nottingham last spring that he could get the job done on turf (5f, good); looked as though his recent seasonal return would bring him on and his lacklustre end to 2025 has seen him drop to a dangerous mark. |

Not seen in six months, but finished first and second in two starts over C&D as a 3yo, on each occasion when returning from an absence; 6lb below last winning mark; worth a second look. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was at Windsor 13 months ago but that was off 13lb higher and he finished a close third over C&D (good to firm) on his penultimate run; has possibilities if he can recapture that form and he won't mind what the weather does. |
15/2 |
|
8th 4 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Windsor last April off a mark 12lb higher than today's and he took a step back in the right direction when a close-up third at Nottingham (5f) a week ago; claims if building on that now returned to the AW. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Scored off a career-low mark to land his eighth success, at Epsom (6f, good to firm) nine days ago; back up 2lb but has recorded back-to-back wins previously so cannot be discounted. |
11/4 |
|
1st 6 (7) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has a C&D win (in 2021) on his CV but ended last year in poor form and made a low-key reappearance last month; needs to turn a corner. |
20/1 |

13th 8 (16) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
In fine form in the first half of 2025 but he ended that campaign with a couple of low-key efforts; can go well fresh and he returns off a dangerous mark so he is worth a market check. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Confirmed trailblazer who has won 13 races in his career (six on AW), but has finished out of the frame in all six starts over C&D; blinkers go on for the first time on his 86th start; others preferred. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
One of the faster sprinters in training and he belatedly got off the mark for the year with a front-running win at Wolverhampton 17 days ago; 6lb rise against stronger opposition could find him out. |
8/1 |

Trailblazing sprinter who got no peace up front when beaten favourite in a Racing League handicap last time; ran a stormer the time before at Haydock and should give it a good shot from stall 3; has form here. |

6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

C&D scorer but his recent form is far from encouraging, beating only two in 5f Southwell handicap 17 days ago; hood goes back on; work to do. |
14/1 |

7th 1 (2) |
20th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Possibly needed latest run (when back from a break); losing sequence is mounting up but this drop in class may do the trick; interesting at this level off 11lb below last winning mark. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Needs things to fall just right for him but he is on a lowly mark and some of this summer's form gives him leading claims; wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest Leicester run and he holds each-way claims again. |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Strong traveller with eight wins on his record, the latest off this mark in March (5f, AW); well beaten in three starts for his new stable though and enough to prove at present. |
14/1 |

9 (11) |
5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four-time turf winner who scored at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March; however, he was soundly beaten on his final run for Tristan Davidson and it's been the same story on both outings for this stable. |
40/1 |
|
8 (3) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Comfortably saw off six rivals at Lingfield (5f AW) in March but went up 7lb for that and then failed to figure at Wolverhampton and Chepstow; had some traffic issues on his stable debut last time but this is a deeper race and others are preferred. |

17th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Career blighted by a couple of absences; promising run at Wolverhampton in March after 645 days off but he hasn't fired in two runs this winter after a wind operation (off eight months before the first); edging down the weights but others look safer. |
16/1 |

12th 8 (11) |
2nd Dec 2024 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |

Rarely seen since his 2yo campaign; ran well over C&D in March but not in the same form behind One Night Stand here nine days ago (first run after a wind op); others look safer. |

Multiple winner in previous seasons; 0-11 this year but is proving consistent, close second returned to AW most recently; remains 1lb below last winning mark; in the mix. |

2nd 3 (1) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of 12 of his 92 starts, the latest success coming at Chelmsford in October off 1lb higher; several good runs to his name this time around and Billy Loughnane replaces a 7lb claimer today; one to take seriously. |
2/1 |

Losing run up to 13 and he finished over 4l behind Sonic Si when fifth of seven at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday; 1-1 here but he needs to do better than that latest effort. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

6-35 for Stuart Williams but 0-11 on turf and, despite a falling mark, that's the obvious concern on this first start for new connections. |
20/1 |

6th 7 (7) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Third, beaten 1.25l by Over Spiced, in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; that represented his best turf result but this race will demand an even bigger effort. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
4th May 2026 Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
8st 7lb |
Big chance on his AW form but he has finished out of the placings in all nine turf runs; BHA mark is 15lb lower on turf but he's likely to remain vulnerable. |
