29th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
1lb lower than when scoring in an amateur riders' event at Goodwood (1m, good) in June, but hard to win with these days and latest close third of six came in a Newcastle seller (1m, Tapeta); look elsewhere. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Multiple winner in his young days including over C&D, but has only managed to win two of his last 31 starts, one of which was on Jersey; may find a couple too strong. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Threatening to win a good prize; unlucky second in last year's Cambridgeshire and finished third, best of the far-side runners, in the Royal Hunt Cup most recently; 1-1 at Sandown; big chance provided the cards drop right. |
7/2 |

3rd 27 (8) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Unraced on softer than good; record is 4-11 (AW/turf); good second in the 2025 Cambridgeshire (would likely have won but for traffic issues) and Newbury event (collared by Classic) in last two appearances; progressive, represents last year's winning yard and has a big prize in him; respected. |
13/2 |

2nd 10 (9) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Progressive most starts in 2025 and a strong finish took him to within a nose of victory against an all-the-way winner in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm) on final outing; raised 4lb after that big-race performance but should still be of major interest if tuned up for this return. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
All seven wins have been on AW and latest was over C&D in January; found more progress when a close third off this mark at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) in April but he's been tailed off back on turf in last two runs; now returns to scene of his last success but he needs to bounce back near best. |
16/1 |

22th 7 (22) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Seven-time AW scorer, mainly over 1m, most recently in January; latest effort (failed to beat a rival) took turf record to 0-16; enough to prove back over 7f for first time in five years. |
33/1 |

11th 10 (3) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Had the run of things when winning over Newcastle's 1m in January and has since finished behind both Dosman and Angel Hunter; goes to work today off his 8lb lower turf mark but that's because he's 0-15 on grass. |

6th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Two attempts over C&D, including off 2lb higher in this race last year, comprise his only wins for Craig Lidster; effective when fresh; interesting returned to this scenario on stable/seasonal debut. |
14/1 |

10th 13 (9) |
3rd May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced front-runner who showed promise on turf last summer and won at Newcastle (1m, AW) in February; well beaten the last twice, however, most recently at Ascot on Wednesday; has to get back on track. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ended a long losing sequence (on his yard debut) over C&D in May but comes here on the back of a below-form sixth at Newcastle (1m) last month; needs to get back on track. |
9/2 |

6th 5 (1) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made a winning stable debut at Hamilton (8.5f; 20-1) last month; backed that up, splitting a Jim Goldie pair (third has won since), under a 5lb penalty there (1m1f) next time; 1lb lower now and has no issues with this AW track (311224); interesting. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 4 |

Made light of an eight-month absence for his new yard with victory in 1m handicap here 12 days ago; not taken lightly under a 5lb penalty. |
4/1 |
