20th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Rain welcomed as it was good to soft when she bolted up over C&D before dropping away under a penalty on the AW (1-15 on that surface); now has to deal with her new mark (10lb higher than for that last win) but would command respect should it get wet. |
13/2 |

4th 1 (5) |
24th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Reappeared with a near miss on her stable debut at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month and she built on that with a dominant display at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last week; raised her form to a new level with that 5l win and she's 5lb well in under a penalty; should be hard to catch back on AW. |
6/4 |

1st 6 (7) |
15th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
The most recent of her two wins came in a handicap at Sandown (5f, soft; first-time cheekpieces) last September when trained by Lemos De Souza; posted some good efforts for Charlie Wallis this year and was narrowly denied on her stable debut at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month; steps up in grade but has to be considered. |

Winning start on turf as 2yo and later won on handicap debut on AW (both 5f); lightly raced and kept to AW since, some way below best at Southwell in December (first-time cheekpieces, retained); work to do back on grass. |

21st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
He's raced mainly on AW and good or quicker turf but the return to soft ground suited when value for more than a 1l winning margin at Ripon (6f) recently considering he didn't get the best of runs; interesting back up 3lb. |
3/1 |

1st 5 (9) |
1st Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Doubled his tally at Thirsk (7f) in July and twice a runner-up since, latest in eight-runner handicap at Redcar (6f) ten days ago; this consistent type is a likely player once more off the same mark. |
9/2 |

A two-time 6f/7f scorer this season; posted another solid effort with sixth of 11 in 7f Haydock handicap 15 days ago; this consistent sort must enter calculations. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
13-race maiden; didn't see out 7f at Musselburgh last week and this trip should be more suitable but he's not fired on all cylinders this year; others are stronger. |
20/1 |
|
5 (6) |
1st Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
3yo whose 12 starts have been over sprint trips (zero wins), the majority at 5f; however, it's still fairly early days for him with this yard and he's kept on well over 5f on his last two runs; not a forlorn hope. |
16/1 |

5th 1 (7) |
23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Remains winless and he has yet to fire in three runs for his current yard, sixth of eight in 5f Wolverhampton handicap 17 days ago; others are preferred. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Made it 14th-time lucky at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) last month and followed up under a positive ride at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) on Monday, taking his turf record to 33211; respected despite his 5lb penalty. |
5/2 |
|
1st 6 (6) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Regressive on the AW earlier in the year for this yard, having missed a year, but the return to turf and drop to 0-55 company did the trick under Rossa Ryan last time; going back up 7lb will test him but he's only had a handful of starts on grass and may well be up to it. |
7/4 |
|
1st 3 (11) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13-race maiden but he's reached the frame in sprint handicaps on AW in his last four starts; remains unexposed on turf and he could go well again off a sliding mark back in this sphere. |

24th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Made most to win a 5f classified race at Chelmsford in January and she has held her form in defeat since, including over this trip; unlikely to be too far away. |

3rd 6 (8) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Won a similar event over 5f at Chelmsford in January; creditable runs since, last time finishing second over 6f back there after not getting the best of runs; chance. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 4 (9) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Resumed winning ways in 5f classified event here in January and not discredited after a tardy start when a running-on third of six in 5f Lingfield handicap two weeks ago; she's proven over this longer trip so rates a big player back in this company. |

12th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Bagged the stand rail in front when running right away with a Chepstow handicap early last month; hard to believe he's suddenly improved out of all recognition and a 10lb higher mark will test him in today's better company. |
5/1 |

1st 2 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Front-runner who couldn't adopt those tactics after a wide trip on the AW last time; had resumed better than ever and off same mark as for his near miss at Windsor (5f, good to firm). |
11/2 |
|
7th 4 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who's resumed better than ever, backing up his Bath win with a Windsor near-miss off 1lb lower (inclined to hang left); might have been better drawn but can't be discounted for a yard that's won with four of its last five runners. |

9st 10lb |
A three-time 5f winner in 2025; well below par first two runs this season but much better signs with fourth of five in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 26 days ago, fading only late on; well in the mix off a 2lb lower mark. |

Made all from the same stall when winning off 2lb lower over C&D last autumn; not at her best during a light campaign this time and will need a career-best effort if she's to end a dry spell for her yard. |

19th May 2025 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Doubled her tally for 2026 over 5.5f here in May; lightly raced since and back on song with second of five in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 26 days ago, despite being very slowly away; must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. |
8/1 |

2nd 2 (5) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Plenty of solid efforts in defeat to go with her three C&D wins, the last of which came off a 7lb lower mark in January; has been held a couple of times since a Bath victory in May and looks weighted to her best back from a six-week break. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

Can make the running as when gaining his sole success at Newcastle (5f, AW) in March, but his three efforts since returning to turf have been underwhelming; 1lb lower than for his win, but still has enough to prove. |
20/1 |

7th 11 (6) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 5 |

Made all in a Newcastle handicap (5f, AW) in March but he's been disappointing in both runs since, including after wind surgery at Pontefract two weeks ago; blinkers are now added and he has quite a bit to prove again back up in trip. |
