26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Sole win was on his debut in December 2024 but he's been knocking on door for Jack Jones this spring including when runner-up over C&D (good) last month; remains well treated on best form and he's a big player on this first run for James Owen; hood removed. |
11/4 |

2nd 4 (2) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't kick on from his winning debut for David O'Meara; down in the weights as a result and he has run two solid races for his new stable, second over 6f at Leicester last month before a good third over C&D four weeks ago (good to firm); untried on slower than good but handicapped to win. |
4/1 |

3rd 12 (11) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Sole win came on his debut at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December 2024 but he ran well when runner-up at Leicester (6f, good) on his stable debut eight days ago, shaping as if he's worth another go at 7f; contender if backing that effort up. |

21st Apr 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Failed to win for two previous yards but showed the right attitude, back in the hood, when getting up off a 2lb lower mark at Kempton (favourite Court Drive third); will need a bit more if she's to follow up. |

9th Apr 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Latest effort excusable (caught wide over 7f, a trip she's not proven at) but she isn't progressing and needs a career best if she is to shed her maiden status on her first run for a new stable; the hood returns tonight. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Nine-race maiden; showed some promise for Seb Spencer but well beaten on last three starts; makes stable debut after a 173-day break. |
16/1 |
|
9th 1 (1) |
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. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with 6f success at Lingfield in October for Harry Charlton; comes here in good nick for his new yard, finishing runner-up in 6f Newbury handicap 16 days ago; one to consider. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 7 (6) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won twice on Lingfield's AW track when trained by Harry Charlton; promising stable debut at Chester last month (met trouble from a poor draw) and although he couldn't land a blow at York last time, he didn't run poorly by any stretch; Oisin Murphy back in the saddle; slower than good would be a query. |
9/1 |
|
11th 5 (21) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice for Harry Charlton, both over 6f on Lingfield's AW track; didn't get the chance to show what he could do (repeatedly denied a clear run) when eighth of 12 on recent Chester return for new yard; left the impression he'd have been involved in the finish with more luck and enters calculations. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win from 21 starts came at Bath (1m, good) in April; bounced back from a poor effort when runner-up over this C&D last month and shaped as if still in good form at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago, leaving the impression the return to 1m would suit; chance. |
7/2 |
|
5th 12 (5) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Belatedly opened account with clear win at Bath (1m, good) in April, her 18th start, and rebounded from lesser effort when second at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft) last month; has a tendency to race too freely, so this drop back in trip could be a good move; others have more potential, though. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Heavy defeat last time took her AW record to 0-15; opened her account with comfortable win at Bath (1m) earlier in April and remains unexposed on turf; not ruled out. |

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. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Contrasting efforts over C&D since returning from layoff and switched to handicaps, finishing third then well held; may progress if rebound materialises. |
12/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Unexposed after just four runs; looked green as a 2yo and appeared a much improved model when third of eight over C&D (good ground) 18 days ago, fading after eight months off; the hood (omitted on return) goes back on today; in good hands and has far more potential than most of today's rivals. |

4th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Down the field in three novice runs on Tapeta in the winter (6f twice and 8.6f); surprising if he doesn't prove more competitive now handicapping at a modest level; betting to guide. |

Well held in two 6f Tapeta novices last month; this trip is more in line with his pedigree, but still hard 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. |
