27th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
In good order on AW over the winter, going close off this mark twice following a Class 4 win in November; returning to turf not a bother and he can't be discounted. |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Multiple course winner, the latest over 5f in November off an 8lb lower mark; held his form since but likely vulnerable at this level. |

Enjoyed a purple patch between December and May, winning seven handicaps (5f to 7f); he has found it tougher going since and not sure he's in the form needed to take this. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins, two seconds and a third to his name from 11 starts over C&D; beaten as favourite (behind Farandaway) here a month ago but is on a workable mark now and one to consider back under Rossa Ryan. |
4/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won six times in the first half of 2025, three of them over C&D; close third at Kempton last time and he should go well for a stable who were in fine form in February (6-12). |
4/1 |

3rd 6 (4) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

All six wins came on AW in 2025; caught the eye both starts this time around (finished behind Em Four latest) and is back on his last winning mark now; trainer red hot; chance may hinge on how well Callum Shepherd, who has done a good job in the past, can settle him. |

8st 8lb |
Beat Winged Messenger in a big-field 6f handicap at York last summer and he is 11lb better off with that rival today; went close at Southwell in April but he wasn't in the same form at Ascot 16 days ago; should be winning soon but perhaps not today. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Just missed out at Southwell ten days ago (6f), finishing off his race strongly; 1lb higher mark and stronger opposition to contend with but his proven record in big-field events (first of 21, first of 22 and fourth of 24 on the three occasions he's run in fields of 16+) bodes well. |
8/1 |

2nd 7 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Triple AW winner who is just 1lb higher than when beating his 21 rivals at York last July (following wind surgery; winning the race for the second year in succession); completely blew the start at Wolverhampton last time and best watched today. |

Dual course winner (6f/7f) and 3lb lower than when successful at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) last September, but he can't be entertained on his performances in the meantime. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Winner of 13 races and just 1lb higher than for the latest, but quiet in two starts at Southwell (6f, AW) since returning in February; needs to step up. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Went close at Yarmouth (6f, good) last July and won at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) in July; absent since but he can be in the mix if fully tuned up on his return. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Inconsistent on the AW but saw off a progressive rival when off the mark in January; beaten just over 1l in a busy finish on his comeback over C&D (good; Coolagh Magic and Court Of Session ahead, Shibuya Storm behind) in June and wasn't far off that when fourth at Newmarket (good to firm; winner and fifth won next time) nine days later; key player. |

Consistent spell on Tapeta over the winter and continued the good work back on turf when close second of six at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; he's never won above a mark of 75, though. |

C&D win last summer came off 18lb lower and he returns to turf 10lb higher than when last running on grass, thanks to a consistent spell on Tapeta; will need something close to a career-best to take this and he's not improving at his age. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Running well for Iain Jardine since February, including wins at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March and Hamilton (5f, good) last week; unpenalised for that latest success, so 3lb well in, as he was when creditable third at Ayr (favourite) yesterday; should go well again if that hasn't taken it out of him. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Showed a likeable attitude to get off the mark on turf at the 18th attempt at Hamilton (5f, good; Wee Mary fourth) on Friday evening; escapes a penalty for that and Mohammed Tabti is able to claim his 5lb allowance here; equally effective at 6f-7f; obvious chance. |

15th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |

Versatile sort whose form since March comprises a win over 6f on AW and creditable third-place finishes over 5f/7f, latest at Musselburgh returned to turf; 0-17 in this sphere, however. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Career win number ten at Yarmouth last month (6f, good) and the first-time visor tried there was replaced by cheekpieces when fourth at Bath; with the visor back on he's entitled to have some say. |
10/1 |
|
1 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All of his turf wins have been on good or quicker and he secured his tenth career success when scoring at Yarmouth (6f) two weeks ago; remains feasibly treated off 4lb higher and he's a big player again if he gets a good tow into this race; visor worn last time is removed and cheekpieces return. |
7/2 |

3 (6) |
16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Won off way higher marks in the past and ran respectably to be third at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last time; first-time visor joins his regular tongue-tie (usually wears cheekpieces) and he's down to a career-low mark; has run well here before and he's respected. |

Regressive 5yo but he is a C&D winner who hasn't run badly on his last two starts; this is a slight ease in grade and Billy Loughnane takes over in the saddle; each-way chance. |

Unable to justify good market support on stable debut in August but kept on well to snatch second (no threat to winner) at Kempton (6f; first-time tongue-tie) eight days ago and remains very well handicapped on old form. |
