4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 144y Class 2 |
10st 11lb |
Won four of his five starts in 2025 and went close off 1lb higher than today over C&D (good to soft) in January; below par on last two starts but the 2m5f trip then soft ground are possible excuses; no surprise if he bounces back with a good performance in first-time cheekpieces. |

25th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
A two-time winner (around 2m) either side of Christmas and he has continued in good nick, failing to stay when stepped up to 2m5f at Kelso last month; this C&D winner can bounce back. |
8/1 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 2 |
11st 3lb |
Won five of his first six completed starts over hurdles (1m7f-2m2f) and has run well in defeat on his last two; now up in distance, which may well suit him, and he handles any ground; solid claims. |

15th Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Eight-race maiden who has been well held in two handicaps for his current yard and latest was at Wetherby (2m5f, good) in October; tongue-tie is now added and he needs to significantly raise his game after a break. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
May have needed the run after a break when beaten 26l on handicap/stable debut at Hexham (2m4f, good) and was short in the betting at 9-2; remains relatively unexposed. |

17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
0-3 in bumpers and 0-4 over hurdles, but has some respectable form and wasn't himself at Sedgefield last time when held at his point of departure; had a break since Christmas and can go well if back on song. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 4lb |
Pulled up at Perth this month, after a layoff, but was placed twice on the tight left-handed track at Cartmel (2m6f) last summer, so there's a good chance Fakenham will also suit him; big player if back on song. |
4/1 |

13th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Placed on a couple of occasions at Cartmel (2m6f) last year and was a staying-on fifth over C&D (in a first-time tongue-tie) last September; is likely to draw benefit from this comeback run; monitor only for time being. |

10th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Unexposed after only five hurdle runs but was unable to justify his market prominence when safely held on handicap debut at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in December and struggled in a Catterick claimer on Wednesday; 1lb wrong here; needs a good boost from the new blinkers. |
20/1 |

4th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 156y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden; no impact whatsoever from a lowly base for handicap debut at Newcastle (2m1f; seventh of eight, beaten 21l) in December; off for 83 days since; rates as an unlikely candidate. |
66/1 |

2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Poor form in bumpers/over hurdles; wears cheekpieces for Flat debut; Geordie Mackem looks the stable's main hope. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Won a 2m maiden hurdle here on soft last October; mainly creditable efforts since, including when third in mares' handicap at Musselburgh last time (2m4f, good to soft; fourth has won since); chance. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 |
20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Up and down in novice hurdles and tailed off last time; however, she was a winner at 125-1 at Perth (2m, soft) in October and ran well in third at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) two starts ago; she might not be far away on this handicap debut if she's back on song. |
9/1 |

28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
125-1 win in maiden hurdle at Perth (2m, soft) in October; hasn't really kicked on since but ran okay when third at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) last time and she's an each-way player today. |
