Formerly effective on AW but has produced best results for current stable on turf; regressive form since returned to AW started with a modest third over C&D (sole 2m attempt). |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 61y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Made all for his last three wins, the latest at Bath in May; never better than when beaten a nose in four-runner race at Nottingham (again 1m6f on good to firm) two weeks ago, so he needs respect. |

25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his fourth success when making all at Bath (1m6f, good to firm) last month and ran another respectable race when a 2l fourth of seven over this C&D 25 days ago; contender. |

Back in excellent form after 12 months off and landed 1m6f handicap at Bath nine days ago; up 3lb but this gutsy front-runner is not taken lightly. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has 1-54 career strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022; this year's Flat handicap form is uninspiring but he'll appreciate this ease in grade and is worth a glance in the betting. |
14/1 |
|
5th 8 (4) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has poor 1-53 strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022, and was soundly beaten on both outings this year (11.4f/1m2f); might be perked up by the refitted blinkers, though, and Billy Loughnane is a good booking. |

0-14 but placed a few times and wasn't beaten too far in 1m4f races at Wolverhampton before a lesser run there last time after getting bumped at the start; could have a part to play. |

0-13 but has made the frame in five of her six starts this year, finishing close behind Two Plus Two and Douglas Dc over C&D early last month and third of nine (just behind Walk The Moon) in a 0-50 classified event back here 12 days later (met trouble); frame material again. |

12th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in both starts at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) for George Boughey in the autumn but out of the frame in four handicaps for this yard, albeit not beaten far here (1m4f; first-time blinkers) nine days ago; needs to improve for the longer trip. |

14th Feb 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Unraced here but all five wins have come on the AW and he's fine on Tapeta; hasn't been getting the breaks in his recent races and one to consider, for all that he's not shone when previously tried in cheekpieces. |
8/1 |

27th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All of his five wins have been on AW and latest was off this mark over C&D last March; finished fifth in both runs for new yard this winter but he didn't get much luck on the first occasion and was beaten less than 3l at Lingfield last time; could be dangerous if he can find something extra. |

13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Belatedly opened his Flat turf account over C&D (good) last month; respectable third to Basilette here on firm since; course record reads 423213 so expect him to be in the shake-up. |

Belatedly opened his Flat turf account in similar event over C&D (good) last week, taking Bath record to 42321 and adding to his AW/hurdles wins; incurs 4lb penalty but defied this mark a couple of years ago; very solid chance. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
10st 7lb |
Placed on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in January but he's struggled since and was tailed off at Brighton (1m4f, good to soft) 13 days ago; now 0-10 and has a lot to prove on this switch to a staying trip. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Nine-race maiden whose best efforts came on the Wolverhampton AW (8.6f/9.5f) last winter; has shown little on turf, including both starts since returning in July, and still has stamina to prove; others stronger. |
25/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Improved on earlier form when third of ten on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (about 1m1f, AW) in January but has finished remote since, in a hood then cheekpieces (retained) on last two starts; risky. |
