2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Extraordinarily consistent sort who is yet to finish out of the frame in 16 starts; Master Vintner and two others proved too strong for him late on over C&D two starts back but that rival is 3lb worse off at today's weights, so they are very closely matched. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 15 (15) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Extraordinarily consistent sort who is yet to finish out of the frame in 15 starts and his profile isn't short of improvement either; stays this trip, acts on good to soft (unraced on soft) and he also ran well on his only visit here; very likeable and should go well again. |
11/1 |

4th 8 (14) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |

Yet to finish out of the frame and his last win was achieved here; stall 14 might not be terminal over this trip but the handicapper may now have his measure. |

13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Prevailed by a neck at Sandown (1m, good) last time, registering a first success on turf; back up 3lb but remains well treated on the pick of his AW form; gained his other wins back-to-back. |
9/2 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Has broadly respectable form since returned to turf, notably a good effort behind Dovey Moon; however, still may be more interesting when back on Chelmsford AW; 2-2 there compared to 0-18 elsewhere. |
8/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 177y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Both wins on Chelmsford's polytrack but placed efforts at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) and Salisbury (1m, good) show he's well capable on turf; making headway when clipping heels and unseating his rider approaching the final furlong at Goodwood last week. |

13th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made all at Southwell (1m; 16-1) in February and also ran well (third; in first-time cheekpieces) there in April; underwhelming since, particularly on last two starts (both 1m); it's possible that this sharper track could suit. |
15/2 |
|
14 (4) |
25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Made all for a winning handicap debut over C&D in February and he bettered that form when a good third of 13 in a competitive race back here in April; fairly middling efforts since but he's dropped in the weights and the return here is a plus. |
8/1 |
|
4 (7) |
3rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Handy sort who made all on handicap debut at Southwell (1m, AW) in February; hasn't added to it since, but he has run with credit on occasions and has dropped to a mark just 1lb higher than for his win; shortlisted. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Three runs at Newcastle, winning two of them and desperately unlucky in the 3yo handicap last Good Friday on the other; looked set for another productive season when scoring at Kempton in March and a subsequent York defeat shouldn't be used as conclusive evidence the handicapper has caught up; leading claims back on AW. |
4/1 |
|
6th 5 (5) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Five wins last year (AW/soft) and he improved again to win in good style on his reappearance at Kempton (6f, AW) in March; he's 5-9 on AW as opposed to 1-7 on turf but there can be optimism that he is just as good on grass (has shown promise on various ground) and he's firmly in calculations. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Hold-up sprinter who won five times in 2025; fifth in a big-field event at the Curragh last September when he had to wait for an age for a gap to appear; appeals as the type to progress again this year and he's high on the list, for all he will need luck in running. |

9st 12lb |
Dual winner over 1m2f on turf (good/good to firm) this year and just 1lb higher than for the latest; shaped quite well in both previous goes on the AW; shortlisted back down in grade. |
6/1 |
|
3 (6) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
1m2f turf wins this May and June, the latter when tongue tied first time (kept since); ran respectably at 1m4f on last two starts (three places behind Crowd Quake at Doncaster on latest) but return to 1m2f may suit. |
11/2 |
|
5th 11 (8) |
11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
1m2f turf winner this May and June, the latter when tongue tied first time (kept since); creditable third of six when trying 1m4f on Lingfield AW on latest outing, but a previous attempt at 1m4f on turf was not so good; unraced on softer than good; others look a bit more solid. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |

Ex-Kevin Ryan; won a 1m AW handicap in March 2025; stays 1m2f but below-par when tried over further; bit to prove. |
40/1 |
|
12th 11 (3) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Didn't progress as may have been expected following a 1m win at Southwell last March; dropped away to finish eighth of the nine runners on last month's stable debut at Newcastle (1m); enough to prove for now. |
33/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Won at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last March and runner-up at Ayr in September on final run for Kevin Ryan; sold for 10,000GBP in October; lacks a recent outing but is not ruled out on his stable debut. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Got off the mark at Newmarket (1m, good) in June; showed the benefit of wind surgery when showing improved form when beaten a head by an unexposed sort at Newcastle (7f, AW) last month; looks sure to go close. |
11/4 |
|
9 (5) |
17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Infrequent winner but he is effective on Tapeta and has undergone wind surgery since his latest start; not ruled out. |

9th 8 (7) |
8th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Only one win (14 races) but that 1m handicap in June was at this track; ran respectably next time and rallied into a close fourth of five for slowly run race on latest; needs to find extra but his tongue-tie (worn two and three starts back) is restored and new trip now looks worth a go. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has gained all of his three wins on the AW but is knocking on the door for his first turf win; placed on his last two runs, latest when runner-up at Leicester (1m2f, good) last month; claims. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
All three wins have been on the AW but has been placed on turf on three occasions, including when running on for third at Pontefract (1m2f, good) 11 days ago; makes appeal. |
13/2 |

3rd 3 (7) |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |

Three-time AW winner who has rather stagnated in that sphere in 2026; record of 0-8 on turf but he was placed off higher marks in last two attempts; each-way possibilities, provided he's back in similar form. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Prominent racer (can front run) who won three times last year, twice at Doncaster (1m) and at York (1m, good); reappeared from 203 days off with a solid effort at Newmarket (1m, good) last month but he was withdrawn after becoming upset in the stalls at Doncaster on his last intended start. |

Front-runner who won twice over C&D last summer and he defied this mark when beating 15 rivals at York last September; reappeared with a creditable fourth at Newmarket last month and he's a big player if he can build on that. |

Both wins at Redcar, the latest a 7f handicap in May off 3lb lower; he has finished last in his two runs since and connections now turn to a visor (wore cheekpieces to no avail once in April). |
16/1 |
|
8th 7 (1) |
20th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made it 2-2 on this track when winning over 7f (good to firm) in May; never involved at Catterick last week and now needs to prove himself at 1m, one previous defeat at the trip coming after a winter break. |

7f winner last August on good ground off 6lb higher so has to be of interest after returning to form with a second at Carlisle (7f, soft), which was his best run yet for this yard. |

2nd 5 (1) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Far from convincing on his efforts this term for new yard, latest back at Carlisle, but looks a plausible danger provided he revives; defied a 7lb higher mark over C&D last August (sole win). |
11/1 |

8th 7 (2) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Sole success came over C&D from 4lb higher last August when trained by Stella Barclay, but regressive in the meantime including in three starts since returning for this yard last month; best watched. |
