28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Unable to land a telling blow when favourite here (6f) this month but was close third off much-reduced mark here two starts ago and ought to be suited by today's return to 7f; tongue-tie removed after one use; it might pay to give him another chance. |
9/1 |

7th 2 (5) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lost his way last year after a spring win for Eve Johnson Houghton off 13lb higher; well supported ahead of his C&D comeback in February, when faring much better off this mark, and is one to consider in a first-time tongue-tie for a yard going well of late. |
4/1 |

3rd 1 (9) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Quite impressive when winning over 6f at Wolverhampton last spring; mixed efforts since but he's been running over an inadequate 5f for this yard, dropping 15lb in the process; might do much better back at 6f. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Sole success came at Lingfield last September off 1lb higher; has ran well in three of his six runs this year, latest when third of five over 5f here last week (first-time cheekpieces, retained); not far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ran well for second over 6f here in April; two heavy defeats followed and although he ran a bit better at Lingfield last time, he was over 2l behind Shalaa Asker; now tried in another new form of headgear. |
11/4 |

5th 5 (6) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Maiden; two poor efforts of late, with and without a hood, but he ran well for a long way behind a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (6f) in April and is worth another go at 5f; first-time blinkers today. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Modest maiden at his best in 2024 and 2025; not so good for new yard this year but latest start, when wearing first-time cheekpieces over 7f, was at least a step back in the right direction. |
16/1 |

5th 9 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
When fifth of 14 at Beverley (7.4f, good) last month he was trapped wide and failed to settle, so that run wasn't without promise, but he's since been well beaten at Newcastle (6f, AW) and is now 0-13; cheekpieces go on; plenty to prove. |
25/1 |

9th 11 (10) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-12 and has failed to threaten on either start this year but when fifth of 14 at Beverley (7.4f, good) last Tuesday he was trapped wide and failed to settle; his best run last year came when 2l fourth at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) in May off 8lb higher; the return to a sprint trip may bear fruit. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Poor strike-rate and his three runs for his new trainer haven't suggested he was primed to double his tally. |
20/1 |

6th 1 (8) |
26th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win was in a maiden in August 2024 and he's struggled in two runs (7f/5.7f) for new yard this season; has lots to prove at this new trip and this looks tough on the figures. |
20/1 |
|
9th 6 (9) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Sole win from 27 starts came in a Brighton maiden when trained by Eve Johnson Houghton in 2024; posted some fair efforts for his previous yard last year but he was well beaten over 7f on his stable debut 11 days ago; headgear returns. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Second at Thirsk before nosing home at Redcar (1m, good; 3lb lower) and not the first time she's been below par at Ripon a month ago; could easily bounce back from that. |
15/2 |
|
9th 9 (11) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
She's worked her way back into form and last month's second-place finish at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) was followed by a win at Redcar (1m, good); won on soft ground last September; respected up just 3lb for last time. |
11/2 |

Ran well in defeat at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) this month, despite racing too freely (without cover) in the early stages; remains well handicapped and features prominently in calculations. |

In the frame in three of his seven starts for Karl Burke, but out of the frame in seven starts for this yard (blinkers made no difference last time); passed over. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

Ex-Karl Burke; exposed 12-race maiden who is on a fair mark but needs to improve on his recent form; poor run last time with cheekpieces which are left off here. |

Seven-race maiden who has form figures of 343 since joining new yard; has frame possibilities as things stand and win possibilities if finding some improvement. |

17th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Has been showing a bit more since joining new yard and latest effort confirms that she's worth another go over this longer trip; the sex allowance brings her into the equation in an ordinary novice. |

21st Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won off 2lb higher over C&D for Richard Hannon in February but she's struggled since including two tailed-off efforts for new yard this summer; still has low mileage but she needs a major revival back on AW. |

22nd Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Made winning handicap debut for Richard Hughes here (6f, AW) in February but three disappointing efforts have followed, the latest on stable debut 19 days ago; needs to turn a corner on this turf debut. |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
