19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Started his career with a progressive spell on AW that culminated in Listed success; has failed to transfer that form to turf since and may be more interesting when returned to an artificial surface. |
12/1 |

5th 5 (6) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very progressive on AW this year, including a 7f Listed race win at Lingfield, but below that level switched to turf the last twice; bit too soon to suggest he won't prove fully effective on the grass but he has it prove for now. |
8/1 |

6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Unraced at two; very progressive on AW this year, winning Listed event at Lingfield (sole 7f attempt) the final time; disappointing favourite at Ascot (6f Group 3) on the switch to turf but can't be written off; may still have more to offer. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Promise in AW novices and on handicap debut when third at Doncaster (7f, good) last June; has since had wind surgery and should be sharper following his return from ten-month layoff when sixth of seven at Nottingham (8.5f, good) last month in first-time tongue-tie (retained); another to consider. |
5/1 |

6th 1 (6) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Promise in AW novices and again when third of ten at Doncaster on her handicap debut last June (7f, good); disappointed at Yarmouth the following month and absent since; has undergone wind surgery during his layoff; drops in class, up in trip and tongue tied for his return; still has potential. |
4/1 |

16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Improved with each of three 6f races and it looked more a case of just needing the run than lack of stamina when a close third of ten on handicap debut at Doncaster (7f, good) in June; respected off the same mark. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Five-time winner (four on AW) who ran well when fourth of 16 last May on his only outing here; chased home a handicap blot on his return to turf in April and he was back in that form when second at Windsor (again 6f, good to firm; Bolo Neighs behind) 11 days ago; in the mix once more. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Five 6f wins in 2025, on AW and turf (good); now 14lb higher than his final run on grass last year and, although he faced difficult tasks in two Newmarket starts this spring, he might have run better in the second of them; needs to raise his turf game. |
9/1 |

6th 7 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Upped his game following a gelding operation last summer, winning over C&D in September before making giant strides on AW; returned from a break to do best of the rest behind runaway winner Double Rush over C&D 17 days ago; could have a nice prize in him this year but the 5lb turnaround with Double Rush may be insufficient. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up eight times but left Stuart Williams for 3,400gns and as a 22-race maiden; ran well when trying this headgear combination once before (early last year) but wouldn't be the percentage call. |
33/1 |

7th 3 (8) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

21-race maiden but eight times a runner-up, including over C&D last month; two defeats over 6f have followed and he has the widest stall to overcome; Rossa Ryan returns to the saddle. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
6f Polytrack winner; on the slide in the handicap for some time; drops again in grade for this first start at the track; has shown he acts on Tapeta at Newcastle and is on a very handy mark in relation to the form he showed there last October; blinkers go on; remains unproven over this trip. |

9th 12 (7) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

AW scorer for previous yard; inconsistent for current stable and has failed to show his form in two starts this term; well treated on best turf efforts but he's not particularly solid. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't really gone on from making a winning handicap debut in April; was rather wayward back on turf last time and connections opt for a visor rather than blinkers here; there's real hope for going beyond 8.6f for the first time on breeding; 7lb claimer returns to the saddle. |
7/1 |

30th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Scored on handicap debut at Southwell (7f, AW) in April but is yet to make any significant further progress after three further AW starts (7f-8.6f; blinkers added last time); needs to kick on again on this return to turf. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

6th 8 (12) |
18th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Seven-race maiden; failed to see her race out when weakening into fourth at Chelmsford (7f AW) latest; drops a further 3lb, and is claimer ridden, but it's difficult to know exactly how she'll fare on first go over 5f. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Wolverhampton winner (6f, AW; first-time tongue-tie) in February and not beaten far when fifth of eight at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) last time, but she refused to race in both intended starts prior to that so comes with risks attached. |
12/1 |

5th 4 (4) |
15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |

Won on the AW in February and is on a workable mark if able to transfer that form to turf, but she refused to race on consecutive appearances last month and comes with very obvious risk attached. |

16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Modest ten-race maiden who has been struggling (1m-1m2f) since coming back from a gelding operation and wind surgery in the spring; probably worth a go at this trip but still has a bit to prove on classified debut. |
33/1 |
|
5 (4) |
16th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Modest nine-race maiden who has struggled in his last three handicaps including when tailed off at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) 13 days ago; visor is now tried and he has lots to prove back on AW. |
25/1 |

9 (10) |
3rd Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Not a straightforward customer but he got back on the scoresheet with a last-gasp success at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) 12 days ago; has a penalty but he won off a higher mark at Doncaster last spring and he looks worth another try at this trip; dangerous. |
6/1 |
|
1st 8 (6) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not a straightforward customer but he has plenty of ability for one operating at this level; back to form with a second of eight over 5f here eight weeks ago; no problem with the sixth furlong and he is more appealing than many. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Disappointed as favourite in a 6f handicap here six weeks ago but he is well handicapped on his 3yo best and he was notably short in the betting prior to being withdrawn at Doncaster last month (bolted to post); headstrong sort but more than capable of playing a role if not overdoing it in the preliminaries. |
