28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Two good runs (both wins) and two poor runs; surprise 50-1 winner on turf debut last time (1m at Windsor, good to firm) and was trying more new headgear there (cheekpieces); remains to be seen whether he'll be as good again. |

26th May 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made hard work of justifying favouritism on debut (7f AW) and hasn't progressed from there, last time finishing last on handicap debut when tried in blinkers (tongue tied for all races); bit risky with cheekpieces now given a go. |

3rd Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Thrice-raced filly who appears to go well fresh, having won readily on 2yo debut (6f, turf) and went down only narrowly in sole outing this term (7f, AW); interesting handicap debutante, back from another layoff. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (6) |
3rd Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Two starts over 6f on turf for Alice Haynes last summer, winning impressively on her Windsor debut but finding Listed company too much at Ripon four weeks later; extra furlong shouldn't be a problem on stable debut (same owner) after six months off; market useful for yard that runs three. |

9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Similar form when third in three maiden/novice events (7f) on AW this year; needs to find more to defy this opening mark, but she's a half-sister to some useful winners and has shaped as though this step up in trip should suit; needs a close look. |
10/1 |

3rd 4 (4) |
23rd Apr 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

Similar RPRs when third in a maiden at Kempton and a Wolverhampton novice (both 7f) this winter; should continue to progress and she holds each-way claims. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual 6f AW winner; returned from break with low-key turf run over that trip last month and has never run over 5f before; swaps visor (worn for last six races) for refitted cheekpieces; others have more pressing claims. |
10/1 |
|
10th 11 (14) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Two AW wins over this trip but he wasn't at his best when last seen in March; his three turf starts are all excusable to some degree and he could prove as effective on grass in time. |

18th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
0-6 but has run really well in his first three handicaps, most recently suited by the step up in trip when third of five at Goodwood (1m4f, good to firm); that could prove to be a warm little race and he's one to consider. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 1 (4) |
20th Jun 2025 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has improved since handicapping, finishing second of ten at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in April and third of eight (clear of the rest) at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month; on both occasions he has shaped as though he would appreciate further; respected. |
9/4 |
|
3rd 4 (1) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 201y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has improved in each of his four starts, going down by less than a length when second of ten on handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) last month; up 4lb but remains open to further improvement and shouldn't be far away. |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Minor form since handicapping at 7f-1m1f in the spring (hood added latest, now discarded) but it's not impossible on pedigree that she'll cope with the big step up in trip; still has something to prove. |
25/1 |
|
6 (6) |
10th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Out of the frame in all six starts over 6f-1m1f on turf/AW; down another 3lb but needs to benefit from the fitting of a hood. |
12/1 |
|
2 (6) |
29th May 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Close sixth at 150-1 in Wolverhampton novice (7f, AW) in March but down the field since in her first two handicaps (7f/1m, AW/good to firm); needs to raise her game. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Closest when second of five on handicap debut at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in May; opposable on what she's accomplished in her three starts since, albeit with trouble in running at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) last time. |
10/1 |
|
7th 8 (5) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Six-race maiden whose best effort was when second of five on handicap debut at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in May, but she hasn't matched that form in either start since; look elsewhere. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (1) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Second of five on handicap/turf debut at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) in May, but found the trip too far at Windsor (11.4f, good) later in month; off 110 days but still unexposed and worth a market check. |

4th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Tapeta winner who didn't handle Brighton last time (has run well on the AW here before though); become very hit and miss in recent times and has it to prove now. |
12/1 |
|
9th 1 (2) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Signed off for Ed Dunlop with respectable fifth of 15 at Nottingham (8.3f, good; visored) in April but was always behind on recent stable debut (1m, AW; no headgear) and it's hard to know what to expect from her over this new trip; blinkers refitted. |
12/1 |
|
9th 10 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Hold-up filly whose win for Ed Dunlop, from whom she was picked up in April for 7,500gns, came on Tapeta; become hard to predict and there's no sign of the usual headgear back from a short break. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
5yo who is 0-8 but he ran well when third in a C&D classified (good) in June and was in contention when squeezed out 1f out in another C&D classified (firm) in July; could be a contender. |
6/1 |
|
9th 2 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed for first time in seven-race career when coming from off the pace for third in similar C&D race to this last month (good ground); that was his turf debut and he could plausibly still have a bigger run in him if today's faster ground suits. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 3 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who has kept on quite nicely in 7f and 6f events on Wolverhampton AW either side of a failure over 1m at Lingfield; not impossible on turf debut. |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Poor form in her four starts, including when switched to a 0-50 classified here (7f; 125-1) 18 days ago; early days but the extra furlong needs to prove transformative. |
50/1 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well-beaten 250-1 shot in three novices on the AW, latest in March 2025; stable going really well but needs to improve on handicap debut. |
50/1 |

7th 2 (1) |
17th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
