30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time AW winner on the Flat; okay efforts in maiden hurdles at Navan and Limerick last autumn without really threatening to win; will qualify for a handicap mark after this. |

12th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Sister to 7f 2yo/1m winner Holloway Boy (including Group 3; RPR 113); 7-1, signs of inexperience but also fair form and promise when running-on fourth off 11 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, soft) in September 2023; off for 454 days but this is a suitable race in which to reappear; likely key player. |

20th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up to Golspie over C&D and then did well (fourth) from a poor track position at Southwell, before things slotted neatly into place for a cosy 12.5f win here (7-4 favourite; from 3lb lower) 11 days ago; given a decent gallop to aim at, should be there or thereabouts. |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Won novice at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) last December but he's 0-10 in handicaps since and was last of 12 at Southwell on his final run in the summer; mark continues to fall but he has plenty to prove after a break; equipment returns including first-time tongue-tie. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Won two in a row at Redcar (1m, good to firm) last spring for George Boughey and he's just 1lb higher than when last successful; effective at 1m2f earlier in career; however, he hasn't been at his best on his last four starts, for this yard on the last two occasions, and he has to raise his game. |
33/1 |

5th 4 (2) |
20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Soundly beaten in mid-division on last month's stable/seasonal debut in the Spring Mile at Doncaster but that was his first encounter with slow ground and he may have needed the run; won twice over this C&D (good to firm) last spring, including this race, and could play a leading role back here. |

Thrice-raced gelding who has shown some promise in both AW attempts, latest at Newcastle (1m2f) where he shaped as if this drop back in trip will suit; improvement possible on handicap debut. |

9st 3lb |
All three wins at 2m, the latest coming here last month on good to firm (Class 4); this is a different ball game altogether and he'd be receiving lumps of weight off most of these in a handicap. |

22nd Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Poor form in three runs over further (absent 583 days after debut); faces her first realistic opportunity and has cheekpieces fitted for the first time; not solid but there are grounds for expecting better. |

Speedily bred but kicked off over 1m2f and didn't get home over 2m on handicap debut at Newcastle, though that was better; others might see this out stronger. |

Pulled up on first three hurdling starts and achieved very little when fifth of six in recent Market Rasen maiden (2m, good); has basement mark for handicap debut but still needs significant improvement. |

Made debut only last October and he's beaten very few of his rivals, at triple-figure odds for all five starts; drops in trip after two 1m classifieds and blinkers replace cheekpieces. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Eight-race maiden who has yet to be placed; ran respectably in a classified event at Wolverhampton (9.4f; cheekpieces added) last week but he needs improvement on this step back up in trip. |

4th 6 (3) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Better with each run for this yard, back from a year off, looking unlucky not to go closer over C&D last month before done for toe at a key stage in a small field at Lingfield; one of the likelier winners in first-time cheekpieces under Billy Loughnane. |
4/1 |

4th 5 (3) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Was set to show comfortably his best form at Wolverhampton ten days ago when denied a run in the final furlong; that was a lowly classified event but it did at least hint that better could be forthcoming. |
