18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seems equally effective over 7f or 1m; back on a mark he can win off and was noted doing some nice late work in race he'd won the previous year over the shorter trip of 7f last time; draw for this prominent racer could have been kinder. |

31st Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Dual C&D winner who recorded another good C&D effort when third of 12 just before Christmas; not in the same form when fifth of six over 1m here nine days later but he's capable of bouncing back. |
7/2 |

29th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All four wins on Polytrack including two over C&D, the latest in July; again ran well when second of 12 at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) 15 days ago, but he has an awkward draw. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-35, with the latest success coming at Lingfield (7f, AW) in December off a mark 8lb higher than today's; never featured over this trip at Wolverhampton 31 days ago and better is needed. |
20/1 |

7th 2 (4) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, and most racing, come over 7f, including when making all on his second start for this yard on Polytrack off 6lb higher in the winter; not at his best lately and, while well drawn, may not get his own way as he likes back down in trip. |
16/1 |

7th 6 (7) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made all to win a 7f AW handicap at Lingfield in December, his second start for Mark Loughnane; in and out since that success but no doubt he is handicapped to go well and he has run well over C&D in the past (including finishing second in this race year off 4lb higher); one to consider with Billy Loughnane back in the saddle. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Dual 7f course winner; 7f wins at Doncaster and Yarmouth last month, the latter off 7lb lower, but he wasn't suited by a modestly run race at the former track ten days ago; left the impression he's still in form and he holds claims returned to 1m. |

15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Ended a losing run over C&D in July and quickly followed up with comfortable success in 7f Yarmouth handicap 18 days ago; up another 7lb now but very much one to consider in his hat-trick bid. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (5) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Had his ideal combination of fast ground and a strong pace when back to winning form at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) ten days ago; only 2lb higher and much respected if this pans out in a similar way, which looks a possibility. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Stays 1m but all eight of his wins have come over 7f, the latest at Kempton 18 days ago; should get a good pace to aim at and he holds each-way claims again. |
11/2 |

1st 7 (6) |
2nd Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Well held after a slow start here (1m) 12 days ago but that was after two solid placed efforts at Lingfield (7f/1m); losing run is now up to 15 but he's on a dangerous mark and could get involved if he gets a good pace and some luck; cheekpieces removed. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won four times last term but he hasn't added to that haul since scoring at Windsor (1m, good to firm) around a year ago; did go close under Laura Pearson at Redcar (6f) off this mark in May, however, and wasn't beaten far when sixth in Newmarket handicap (7f) last time; sole previous attempt in this headgear was inconclusive (didn't stay 1m2f). |
7/1 |

6th 5 (9) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Said to have run flat last time; tended to respond well to switches/removal of headgear in the past (back to cheekpieces from blinkers tonight) and won't mind coming back up from sprint trips, but Pontefract will need forgiving. |
14/1 |

Multiple 7f-8.5f winner who fared better than seemed likely when dropped to 6f at Redcar (good to firm; half-length second) last week; fighting chance off same mark. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Did best of those in the stands' side group at York (6f, good to firm) in July and then kept on for third of nine at Southwell (6f, AW) 27 days ago despite not getting the best of passages; now down to a career-low mark and this dual C&D winner should appreciate stepping back up in trip. |
7/2 |

3rd 1 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
He's struggled to get competitive on turf on his four starts since May, albeit he fared best in the near-side group at York a fortnight ago; Tapeta seems to be his preferred surface and he's 5lb lower than when going close at Wolverhampton (7f) in February; no surprise to see a big run. |
8/1 |

15th 15 (22) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has not matched this year's AW form since returned to turf; should be well treated now but not sure stall 22 will be an advantage. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Seven-time AW winner who was runner-up over C&D in March but has lost his way with heavy defeats in his last three runs; has a lot to prove and he needs to get back on track. |
25/1 |

10th 5 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Seven-time AW winner but sole turf win was in 2023 and he was tailed off back in this sphere at Catterick (7f, good) in May; has something to prove after another break and others are preferred. |
20/1 |
|
12th 4 (8) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Runner-up at Kempton (7f, AW) two starts ago and he has a 9lb lower mark to work with on turf; however, he's been inconsistent this year and his sole turf win (from 15 attempts) came back in 2023. |
