27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Seems best on the AW these days and has run poorly on his last three turf outings; his hopes hinge on a recent wind operation having a positive effect. |

Seems best on the AW these days and has run poorly on his last two turf outings, including here; others make more appeal. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Two-time turf winner who ran well when third at Newcastle (6f, AW) in March; however, the AW seems preferable nowadays and he finished last at Newmarket (5f, good) last month when back on grass. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Two wins and a close second to his name in four runs over C&D; tended to be hot and cold in the past, twice winning back-to-back, which bodes well after bouncing back off 4lb lower at Yarmouth last time; goes well for Luke Morris too. |
7/2 |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
AW win in January and went close 19 days later; unplaced in both turf starts this spring and he needs to raise his game. |
8/1 |

7th 4 (7) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer; won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in January on second start since returning to this stable and he went close over that same C&D next time; ran creditably back on turf at Nottingham (5f, good) 17 days ago but he has a better strike-rate on the AW (1-24 on turf). |

21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Absent since running respectably when favourite for AW contest in January; on a two-year losing spell but is attractively treated off his lower mark back on turf; further market support should be noted. |
9/1 |
|
7 (8) |
31st Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
On a losing run and he has yet to win over this trip; sent off favourite for the corresponding race 12 months ago but faded into tenth; 6lb lower this time around and he has finished second in two of his last four starts; vulnerable to stronger stayers. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Front-runner who's drawn to attack and boasts a solid record over C&D; not much room for manoeuvre off this mark, though, for a yard also responsible for Ziggy's Missile. |
8/1 |
|
8th 6 (5) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who was found an ordinary Yarmouth handicap when winning easily in the spring; handicapper had his say for that and he finished well beaten behind Dream Composer upped in class at Epsom last time; yard also runs Rhythm N Hooves. |
12/1 |
|
18th 20 (13) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Better on AW than turf but took advantage of a good opportunity at Yarmouth in April (5f, good); hit with an 8lb rise for that, bringing his turf and AW marks into line; blew the start back at Yarmouth last month but the stewards deemed him a non-runner due to having his head turned as the stalls opened; risky on the back of that and there are other pace influences to contend with today. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

No impact in two York sprints last month but he's slipped to a good mark and a revival wouldn't be a complete bolt from the blue. |

25th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Won first two starts at 5f on heavy and good to soft but things haven't been easy for him since, on turf or the AW, and has yet to prove 6f suits. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Finally ended a 49-race losing run at Southwell (5f, AW) in January; now 2lb lower than for that success and this company is much easier than that he normally keeps, but his record of 1-47 on turf still makes him hard to warm to. |
6/1 |

5th 13 (9) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
8st 10lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and posted a respectable effort at Newmarket (5f, good) last month; however, he was down the field at Ascot (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago and is now just 1-46 on turf; others preferred. |
20/1 |

14th 15 (16) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Ended a lengthy losing run at Southwell in January and he is just 1lb higher today; solid effort at Newmarket 17 days ago when not ideally positioned; each-way claims at a track where he has run well in much better races than this one. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Confirmed trailblazer who has won 13 races in his career (six on AW), but has finished out of the frame in all six starts over C&D; blinkers go on for the first time on his 86th start; others preferred. |
11/1 |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
One of the faster sprinters in training and he belatedly got off the mark for the year with a front-running win at Wolverhampton 17 days ago; 6lb rise against stronger opposition could find him out. |

Trailblazing sprinter who got no peace up front when beaten favourite in a Racing League handicap last time; ran a stormer the time before at Haydock and should give it a good shot from stall 3; has form here. |

Has won here but at his best at Newcastle where he has gained his last four wins; can ruin chance by starting slowly but is not firing on all cylinders at present anyway; best to wait until he returns to Newcastle. |

3rd 1 (2) |
15th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Better on the AW, but has a 15lb lower rating on turf; Newcastle winner in March; not disgraced on latest turf start at Beverley last month, but modest effort in a visor (on again) on Tapeta last time; a possible. |
