1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Dual Newcastle winner who added two turf victories last autumn, all off lower marks; will want a good test over this trip round here and hasn't been at his best on grass lately. |

Scored twice (around 1m) at Ayr and Beverley last summer; back in decent nick in 2026, fifth in 8.5f Beverley handicap 22 days ago; ought to be in the shake-up again from an easing mark. |

8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Progressive after joining this yard last May, winning three times at Ripon (1m, good) and posting a close third at Ayr (1m, soft) in September when last seen; the drop back to 7f might not be ideal on his reappearance but he's one to consider nevertheless. |

Won three at Ripon from his six starts for this yard; those wins were 1m, however, and his form was not as good when tried over 1m2f, including when tailed off on latest start; big questions to answer over new trip. |

Won four times on AW in the first three months of last year for Gay Kelleway but left that yard under a cloud and hasn't built on encouraging first go for this stable in March; work to do on his return to turf. |

29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Regular slow starter; like The Spotlight Kid, his four wins have come in two lots of two; not beaten all that far in his two runs since leaving Gay Kelleway but more is needed from him. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Showed signs of a revival back from a break when fifth on stable debut at Kempton (1m) three weeks ago; was beaten less than 3l in that race and he's now 8lb lower than for his win at Newcastle (7f) last spring; one to keep an eye on. |

Sole win from 19 attempts came off this mark at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last August and he's also effective on turf; however, he's been soundly beaten on his three outings this spring. |

Came good off a similar mark at Newcastle (1m2f) last summer but well held in two outings there this year; his hopes are pinned on a change of headgear (first-time cheekpieces for blinkers) sparking a revival. |

9st 3lb |
Awarded a race on Lingfield AW (1m) in March; she hasn't gone on, including in a turf classified last time out, but there's some hope on dam's side of pedigree that she can stay this far. |

11th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Took a while to find her feet but she was awarded the race at Lingfield (first-time blinkers) in January and didn't run badly at Kempton (also 1m, AW) one month later; not seen since and needs to prove she can do it on turf but still respected on this classified debut. |

12th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Little of note in early handicaps but she did well at Lingfield (1m; first-time blinkers) last month, considering she made ground wide on the home bend, to make a fight of it with the demoted Manton Road (now 2lb worse off); should be very competitive. |
