27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Contrasting performances on the other track here (7f) since being gelded, winning at the Craven meeting in April then well below par in May; not sure what to expect from him on July course debut. |
10/1 |

17th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Has seen plenty of action since his debut last June but he resumed his progress back on turf after a gelding operation when scoring over C&D (good; cheekpieces removed) last month; up 5lb but that was a comfortable success and this return to quicker ground is no problem; shortlisted. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
He's on a competitive mark on his best form for Andrew Balding, which includes a good third of 22 over C&D (good) last May; market check advised on first run since last July, having been gelded and changed hands for 62,000gns in the interim, but he needs to be at the very top of his game. |
40/1 |
|
6 (7) |
11th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won a Kempton novice on his return in March and he's been placed in four handicaps since, including when third of 22 at York (7f, good) on his penultimate run; never dangerous when third on AW at Lingfield last time but that was behind an improver who made all and he's respected on this step back up in trip. |
6/1 |
|
9 (5) |
19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Bred for longer distances but he's a free-going sort who seems better at 7f than 1m; won a Kempton novice in March and he's been placed in three handicaps since, including when third of 22 at York (good) last time; on unchanged mark and he should make another bold bid back on AW. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 8 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In the frame in four of his last six starts and drops to this level for the first time, but a record of 0-25 raises doubts even in this company; visor given a go this time. |
5/1 |
|
4th 4 (9) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |

Well treated on plenty of form but has been unable to take advantage of a steadily declining mark for current connections and latest defeat took his record to 0-24. |

28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Bit in and out since easily winning a Windsor novice (6f, heavy) last October, but it was a good effort in a Kempton handicap (6f, AW) in May and also when beaten a neck over C&D (good to firm) 23 days ago. |
10/1 |
|
3 (3) |
5th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Patchy form since easily winning a Windsor novice (6f, heavy) last October, her best effort when beaten a neck in a Kempton handicap (6f, AW) on penultimate start; returns from 82 days and and still to fully convince over this far. |

5th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Mixed form this year but ran okay when third at Newmarket (7f, good) recently and has dropped below his last winning mark; unraced on Tapeta but seemed fine on Polytrack on his two previous AW runs; might not be far away. |
11/4 |
|
3rd 9 (7) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Dual Yarmouth winner over this trip last year, latterly off tonight's mark; will need a career-best effort if he's to take this and his last couple of runs suggest that may not be forthcoming. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 (11) |
20th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Two C&D wins (good and good to soft) last year and he comes here just 2lb higher than for the latter success; promising reappearance last month but he failed to fire on soft ground here last week; type to bounce back. |

5th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Off the mark for new connections when leading late on in a 7f handicap at Southwell in March; not quite so good twice since but he still commands plenty of respect in this field. |
5/1 |
|
6th 4 (11) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Not at his best at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) 11 days ago, but had previously narrowly beaten the winner of that race over this C&D; drawn wide, but still respected if bouncing back now returned here. |
15/2 |

7th 9 (4) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Snapped a losing sequence a fortnight ago at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) where benefiting from the strong pace to collar Anthropologist close home; unexposed at today's trip and a 3lb rise isn't harsh; he's one to consider. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won maiden and novice events at Lingfield (turf) as a 2yo; 0-9 in handicaps but placed on her last five starts, the last two in competitive Racing League events; cheekpieces are now given a go; high on the list. |
7/2 |
|
7 (9) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dual winner who has been threatening a breakthrough in handicaps and got a bit far back last time at Wolverhampton (8.6f); bang there on turf in her two previous races and she enters the reckoning. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 7 (13) |
31st Jul 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Still seeking her first handicap success but she's run well to be placed in her last three starts; drawn widest and she'll need a bit more to win but the extended mile could suit. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark for James Owen at the 14th attempt when leading late on in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton 16 days ago; returning to 7f no problem but a 4lb higher mark in a higher grade does ask more of him. |
4/1 |
|
1st 4 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Plenty of near-misses to go with his only win, which came over 7.2f here off a 7lb higher mark last autumn; latest effort can be ignored but the emphasis will be more on speed, running in a sprint for the first time in a while. |
6/1 |
|
10th 10 (9) |
17th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Record of 0-12 for current yard but his form over this C&D includes sole success, which was gained off 9lb higher last October, and an encouraging effort (finished second) on Friday; fighting chance provided he belies recent inconsistency. |

27th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Shooting down the weights but for good reason and doesn't look a winner waiting to happen; belatedly tries 1m for the first time. |
14/1 |
|
6 (2) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Began the year with a mark 24lb higher but it's been a struggle in handicaps, latterly for new yard; latest effort, when running into dead end after dead end in the straight at Haydock (7f, good; blinkers first time) was a bit more encouraging and he may have found his level now. |
12/1 |
|
8 (10) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Not entirely solid on his form for new stable but has slipped to an attractive mark and Warren Fentiman's claim is a bonus; may prove resurgent if taking well to first-time blinkers. |
