15th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Below par on good ground last time (handicap debut) and may need softer; gelded since; gained his 2yo win in hood and looks interesting with this headgear reapplied; has low mileage and isn't fully exposed. |

7th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Promising second to useful rival over C&D on debut; subsequent 7f form features an AW win; latest effort (in Listed grade) suggests this drop back in trip will suit; well drawn and looks interesting returned to Chester on handicap debut. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Enjoyed a very good 2025 (three-time 9.5f to 1m4f winner) and he signed off with a good sixth in 1m6f Ascot listed race in October when set a lot to do; hood goes on and can't be ruled out on his seasonal return. |
6/1 |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Moving up to 1m4f brought handicap wins at Newbury (1m4f, good; unraced on softer) and Newcastle (AW; impressive) this summer; creditable third in hat-trick bid in a strong handicap at Haydock (1m6f) four weeks ago; needs to resume his improvement but has a place chance. |
14/1 |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Improved for the step up to 1m4f to win at Newbury in June (1m4f, good; unraced on softer) and subsequently demolished what looked a competitive Racing League handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, AW); hit with 11lb rise for last time but could take it in his stride over a trip that promises to suit. |

Two AW wins this spring but he's been muted since in his three turf races; off four months before latest and now has headgear first time. |

19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Couple of AW wins this spring but didn't transfer that form to turf in two runs shortly after; has been off since May; needs a market check. |

19th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who won over 1m4f on Polytrack last autumn; began hurdling career with respectable third of four at Fakenham (2m, good) last month and didn't run badly before weakening into fourth at Hexham more recently; holds each-way claims at least here. |

4th 6 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who won over 1m4f on Polytrack last autumn; satisfactory start over hurdles when 6l third of four at Fakenham (2m, good) last month, jumping soundly in the main; open to improvement and high on the list. |

3rd 4 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Fair Flat racer who won on Polytrack in the autumn (1m4f; RPR 78); ran poorly on latest outing five weeks ago but can be very competitive at this level if he takes to hurdling at the first attempt; usual cheekpieces replace blinkers. |

3rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Not disgraced in any of her three handicaps at about 1m2f, going close at Wolverhampton in April; does look on the right sort of mark but cheekpieces are now added. |
7/2 |

4th 5 (3) |
27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Five-race maiden; solid second at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) on handicap debut; faded into midfield, having made the running, at Newbury (1m2f, good) since but may do better still. |
9/1 |
|
7th 5 (4) |
16th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
She ran her best race so far when second of six on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton four weeks ago (9.5f); she will need a bit more to defy this mark but she showed promise on her sole turf start and is unexposed. |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

0-6 for Richard Hughes and she has finished tailed off at huge prices in two runs for this yard; will be 5lb lower from the weekend; no appeal. |
100/1 |

9th 11 (2) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |

Didn't progress for Richard Hughes and was tailed off at 100-1 on last month's stable/turf debut at Catterick; need to see more before getting involved. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made second handicap start a winning one at Kempton (1m) last May; creditable third on next three starts (including 7f) before failing to fire in cheekpieces (which are quickly discarded) on final 3yo outing; reappears with his stable back in form and high on the shortlist under Billy Loughnane. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Just got the better of Frostmagic over C&D in April and has been placed in all three starts since, the latest when third of nine at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month; a player from the same mark, especially if the cheekpieces eke out a little more improvement. |

Yet to make much of an impact in five starts, including in two handicaps, and now has the cheekpieces applied on this return to AW; has plenty to prove. |
14/1 |

5th 6 (2) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to make much of an impact in four starts, including her handicap debut four weeks ago (7f, good to firm), but she's bred to be better than this and still has time to come good. |
20/1 |

3 (1) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Never involved when well held in three AW runs (7f/1m), but it's still early days for this well-bred filly and she's a possible improver now switched to turf on handicap debut; needs watching in market. |
