22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Ran well in 7f handicap at Glorious Goodwood, taking record to 1124 while shaping as if he's ready for a crack at this new trip; still open to further improvement; respected. |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 (19) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Nicely bred gelding who ran well in small-field handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) most recently, taking record to 112; the form of his maiden/novice wins (7f, good) has substance; goes into deeper waters but is open to further improvement. |
12/1 |
|
2 (4) |
25th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Looked good when beating his 14 rivals at Thirsk on debut in April and defied a penalty at Newbury (again 7f on good) one month later; the Newbury second and third have won since; good prospect and the drop to sprinting shouldn't be an issue (dam won the Abbaye); an intriguing contender. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Talented on AW and had more in hand than the narrow winning margin suggests when arriving late on the scene at Wolverhampton (about 1m) in November; was carried out of his ground when starting a forward move over C&D (good to firm) recently and has to be of interest in this lower grade. |
4/1 |
|
9th 9 (9) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Has looked quirky on occasions but he produced a decidedly useful effort when coming with a strong run to get up late in 8.6f Wolverhampton handicap in November; matched that form when a close third there on reappearance six weeks ago; won a fast-ground novice on turf last year (also second here on debut); one of two solid contenders for James Tate. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (11) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Has looked quirky on occasions but he came wide and late for a short-head win (from Zryan) over C&D on latest outing, making it three wins from six starts; off 132 days since but raised just 3lb and needs major attention as one of the least exposed runners in this line-up. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Suited by good/firmer; has quickly found his form this season for new yard and ran creditably in the Thirsk Hunt Cup (1m) last Saturday when attempting to follow up his Beverley success (7.5f); may do better still. |
9/1 |
|
5th 14 (12) |
2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who was having only his second start for this yard when clinging on over the extended 7f at Beverley (good to firm) nine days ago; only raised 3lb but this is a step up from that Class 4 and his draw isn't ideal for one who usually races close to the pace. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Got off the mark in 1m Ayr maiden last April but she has failed to kick on in handicaps, last of ten on her return at Ripon (1m) 26 days ago; hood is reached for. |
20/1 |
|
10th 3 (3) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Rallied to win a modest maiden at Ayr (1m, good; 11-2) last April; disappointing since introduced to handicapping, scarcely managing to beat a rival in three attempts (7f-1m); an easing mark could aid her cause on return from ten-month absence; stablemate of Poet's Dawn. |
33/1 |
|
8th 8 (4) |
25th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Won a 1m maiden at Ayr (good ground) in April but she has finished last in two handicap runs since; hard to recommend in the short term. |

26th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed a couple of times over 1m on turf last year, but ran poorly returned to the AW at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) four weeks ago and now 0-8; others preferred. |
20/1 |
|
9th 12 (13) |
25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who was a very close third of seven at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) last month and again finished third at Redcar (1m, good) last Tuesday, behind comfortably winner Just Typical who now carries a 5lb penalty; could be thereabouts. |
12/1 |
|
7 (1) |
16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Showed best form on second handicap start (also second run in a hood) when close third to a subsequent winner at Doncaster last time (1m, good to firm; sixth also won next time); unexposed sort who may improve further; chance. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Quirky maiden who has often shown a tendency to race too freely and who lost all chance when virtually refusing to race on penultimate start; did well to take fourth over C&D last month, but remains a risky option. |
14/1 |
|
4th 11 (14) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Regressive maiden who's often pulled hard and needs to settle early from the outside stall; virtually refused to race last time anyway, so there are plenty of risks involved. |
25/1 |
|
9th 9 (11) |
24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Shaped okay on a couple of occasions on turf (7f) last year before becoming frustrating, seemingly held back by a free-going nature; never better than midfield on recent Southwell (7f; 33-1) comeback; entitled to strip fitter and is easing in the weights. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Three turf wins at about 1m on soft in 2025 but she had a quiet end to the year and was tailed off on her reappearance at Pontefract; has plenty to prove after that. |
25/1 |
|
9th 2 (9) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Progressive in handicaps until form dipped sharply in last two appearances; chance of a revival weakens if the ground isn't soft (gained all three wins on that surface). |
16/1 |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 53y Class 4 |

Made it 3-4 in handicaps with a narrow verdict at Epsom (8.5f, soft) and was drawn wide when never counting at Beverley; in the mix. |

9st 7lb |
Got off the mark when winning at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in March and followed up at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) on his next start; however, he's been well held on his last three starts and remains 3lb higher than for his latest success. |

1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Not seen it out over 1m4f a couple of times since two wins in March, one over C&D; it might just be that his current mark is beyond him but there won't be any excuses tonight. |
6/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Came good with 1m2f wins at Newcastle and Doncaster last month but he didn't fire when upped to 1m4f in his hat-trick bid at Lingfield last time; had a wide trip in that race but he needs to kick on again to make a big impact back on Tapeta. |

Cheap purchase out of Ed Bethell's yard; has found his level since coming down from a peak Irish rating of 56; runner-up over C&D in January, solid third over 1m last month and similar when second two weeks ago; Sadhbh Tormey has ridden two winners for the stable this month and has prospects of another now. |

20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Ten-race maiden who is unraced on fast ground; however, she ran a couple of promising races last autumn, including here, and reappears with her yard going well; one of two for stable; not ruled out each-way. |

5th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
0-5 on the Flat and he's struggled in juvenile hurdles on his last three starts; however, he wasn't devoid of promise in November in his first two handicaps, not enjoying a clear run when mid-division here (1m3f) in a race that has worked out extremely well; interesting contender back on AW. |

30th Jan 2026 Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |

1st Nov 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Finished in rear at big prices in his three qualifying runs and latest was in April; still early days but this is competitive on handicap debut and he needs a transformation upped to 1m2f. |
