28th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Consistent in handicaps, including run out of things only late on when third over the extended 7f here (good) in May; best run when narrowly denied in big-field York handicap (good) four weeks ago; that form is solid so a 3lb nudge from the handicapper may not prevent another prominent showing. |

31st May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Just one win from eight goes but he's assembling a solid CV, run out of things only late on when third over the extended 7f at Chester last time; dropping back to a bare 7f should suit; clear each-way prospects. |

9st 0lb |
Record here this year reads 34513323 including a short-head defeat by Roman Secret over this trip in April; likely to go well and there shouldn't be much between them again. |

3rd 10 (4) |
11th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Running consistently round here all year at the bottom level; no obvious reason he won't get involved again but this is a touch stronger having been nudged up another 2lb. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Running consistently off his higher AW mark (almost a stone lower on turf), including for new yard five weeks ago; has only gone beyond 1m once before, though, and the longer trip on grass is the double concern. |
8/1 |
|
7th 8 (8) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Tapeta win early last year came off 5lb lower and he's looked to find this mark just beyond him this season; needs a career-best effort for his new yard, having been picked up from Brian Meehan recently for £12,500. |
10/1 |

4th 5 (3) |
24th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |

Just one win to his name from 16 attempts but he has run well in two of his three starts this year, including C&D; that said, he wouldn't appear to have much in hand of his mark. |

16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Showed promise on turf last summer and she won at Southwell (7f, AW) this February on her second stable start; only fifth at Kempton (7f, AW) in March and absent since but she retains potential for her top yard, especially now at 1m for the first time. |

5th Mar 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Saxon Warrior filly who is much improved since joining her current yard, showing a tidy turn of foot when cosily winning 7f Southwell handicap three weeks ago; up 3lb but she's a big player. |

Consistent rather than progressive; solid effort after a break when fifth in a 7f handicap at Kempton two weeks ago; return to sprinting can help. |

Ran well when second in Lingfield novice (6f, turf) last July on his fourth start; absent since and he's tackling a new trip for his handicap debut, but the form of the stable is a plus and he's not discounted. |

8th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to be placed in ten starts at 7f-1m2f on a variety of surfaces, including in headgear the last twice; handicapper is trying to help but he'd only be of interest if getting market attention. |
10/1 |

8th 11 (6) |
26th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Soundly beaten in first-time cheekpieces on AW this month (1m2f) and has now been unplaced all nine starts; drops back in trip with blinkers tried here; considered only if lively in the betting. |
14/1 |
|
7th 2 (2) |
12th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has not finished closer than fifth in his eight starts and he's been beaten 7l or more in last four handicaps (7f-1m2f); mark continues to fall and headgear is now added but he needs a transformation back on AW. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
His form has deteriorated since his last win last May but he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 16 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) nine days ago; has another career-low mark today and is not ruled out. |
7/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
One win apiece for his previous two yards but he looks far from solid on 2026 form for another new stable; best watched unless the betting suggests a big run is likely; cheekpieces are removed and blinkers return. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Better than ever when readily seeing off 11 rivals at Southwell (7f) under Gina Mangan in January; never involved over 1m at Doncaster next time but shaped as if still in form when fourth back at Southwell (7f) 23 days ago. |
6/1 |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

9/2 |

12th 3 (12) |
29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Ran some good races on turf last season, including a 7f Class 4 win on good to soft at Chepstow; better than ever when readily seeing off 11 rivals at Southwell 12 weeks ago; still looks well treated up just 2lb but he has a bit more to prove over today's trip. |

Both wins over C&D, the latest 17 days ago with Faster Bee winning the other division in a faster time; he is only 3lb higher, but like that gelding is drawn higher this time; will need a bit more. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (3) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Poor strike-rate (1-27) but has twice been edged out in tight finishes recently, latterly when failing to reel in Gladiadora at Southwell (7f; 9-1); pestered for the lead, reportedly running "too free", when disappointing over C&D 11 days ago; possible. |
100/30 |
|
9th 12 (9) |
10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Record of 1-26 but he was runner-up behind Romanovich over C&D last month and had another close call at Southwell (7f) 13 days ago; nudged up 1lb but he should be in the thick of things again. |

Just one win from his 18 starts but that came off a 2lb higher mark last summer; raced freely on his return to action 16 days ago and dropped away in the straight; likely to last longer today. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

On a fair mark on last season's best, including a 5f win at Windsor in June; absent 172 days and he'll need to be cherry ripe to take this. |

29th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |

Only 1-16 but wasn't running badly until last week when well adrift of Recon Mission on the AW; probably not the percentage play. |
