1st Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Campaigned mainly at 6f; form has dipped sharply in two Class 5 contests since completing a Class 6 AW hat-trick; has enough to prove over this new trip. |
20/1 |
|
8th 7 (9) |
14th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Looked on the up when completing his hat-trick at Kempton (6f) in March but he came in last of seven at Wolverhampton (6f) 11 days ago; he's the sort to bounce back though. |
10/1 |

7th 3 (4) |
3rd Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
In fine form earlier in year with three wins, two of them over C&D; returns from 69 days off from a 3lb higher mark, but he looks progressive and shortlisted in his bid for the four-timer. |

30th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Multiple AW and turf winner from 5f-7f; back on his last winning turf mark from Ayr 13 months ago (has twice won on AW since); below par latest but not ruled out if able to bounce back. |
10/1 |
|
6th 9 (3) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won twice (6f/7f) in February and he was a good second to a thriving rival over C&D in his bid for a hat-trick; beaten off a lower mark twice since and more minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
5th 9 (6) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Dual course winner last month who's continued in form since, faring best of those held up when not far behind Bomb Squad over C&D on Friday; one of the likelier winners. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
His C&D win in February was achieved off a 10lb higher mark; out of sorts more recently though and others look safer. |
14/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
All nine wins over 6f including three here; 8lb below his last winning mark, but attempts this far for only the second time on his 64th start and didn't prove his stamina in the first. |
16/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
18th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
He was winning for the ninth time in his career when scoring at Kempton in February (made most); quiet on turf this summer and opposable despite a reduced mark. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 160y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Not beaten far when fourth of five in recent 5f race won by Savannah Smiles (heavy ground) but is effectively on the same mark from 2lb out of the weights today and has very modest 1-33 strike-rate. |
16/1 |
|
5 (8) |
3rd Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Has the ability to win a race of this nature but can flatter to deceive and boasts a strike-rate of just one win from 32 starts; good effort at Wolverhampton six weeks ago but perhaps better on Tapeta nowadays. |
6/1 |
|
7 (11) |
22nd Jul 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
A few near-misses over C&D off higher marks since coming over from Ireland and didn't run badly on turf last time, when done for toe over 5f back from a break; wouldn't be a shock were he to pop up despite the wide stall. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All wins at 6f up to two years ago but last five successes at 5f, most recently off much the same mark at Wolverhampton before Christmas; has beaten a total of two rivals in his last three starts, however, so more needs to be done back at 6f; cheekpieces refitted in place of a visor. |

28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Good second over C&D in December but that's a rare bright spot in the last few months; others look stronger for win purposes. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Sole AW win was a 6f novice two years ago; in better form in December than he is now but Stevie Donohoe is 1-1 on him (on turf last summer) so there might be a turnaround. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All three wins at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) including two this year; 0-9 on turf, though, and an easy lead seems unlikely, especially from a wide draw; stable also runs Wedgewood. |
11/4 |
|
5th 4 (4) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
In fine form on AW this year, winning twice over C&D and placed in his other four starts; record when ridden by Rossa Ryan is 333113; leading contender. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 4 (7) |
9th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |

Gained his third C&D success when narrowly holding on here 16 days ago (Henery Hawk was third); up 3lb but there's no reason why he can't go well again. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
6f course winner who doesn't appear to be ground dependent; plenty to prove based on his four starts (6f-1m) since joining his current trainer but is on a handy mark if he can be revived. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 (1) |
9th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Course winner who is well handicapped on his best form of last year, but he's been out of sorts in three runs for new yard (6f-1m) this spring; has plenty to prove and he needs a big turnaround; another change of headgear. |
14/1 |
|
3 (12) |
22nd May 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
6f turf and 1m Polytrack winner; well below par on his first two starts for this trainer; others preferred. |
12/1 |
