18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
7-25 on the AW, with one of the wins coming on his only Chelmsford start; creditable third of ten at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) 19 days ago and the second from that race has won since; stamina not assured over the longest he's tackled but can be very competitive from his mark. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
7-24 on the AW with six of those wins coming at Lingfield (1m2f/1m4f); no joy in three turf runs in May/June but he didn't get much luck back on AW at Wolverhampton last month; now only 1lb higher than for his C&D win in April and he's in the mix back at this track. |

Prolific last year, whereas his only win this season was in March; below par twice on turf since a respectable third on AW at Southwell (1m6f) in July but is well handicapped again. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Prolific last year, whereas his only win this season was in March; ran respectably penultimate start (AW) but not well enough in his other recent races and his record for amateur rider is discouraging; his three turf wins have all been on soft or good to soft. |

Made it third-time lucky when landing a C&D novice in November and he went very close on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m4f) in January; now takes a big drop back in trip but he's travelled smoothly in his last two runs and is only 1lb higher than last time; respected. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
He's had a long career but never been better than this season, winning on AW at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m4f); they were in March/April but he returned from a break with creditable third of six here (1m2f, good to firm) 15 days ago, again under Olivia Tubb; probably not far away. |
7/1 |

3rd 3 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
He's had a long career but never been better than this season, winning at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m4f) with a close third in between; they were all on AW in March/April under Olivia Tubb and he's not raced since, with turf runs in the last two years hinting that he's not quite so good in this sphere; also, the last time he raced on firmer than good was 2022. |
10/1 |

Kickstarted 2026 with success at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March and backed it up with a good third of 12 in another 9.5f handicap there since; this C&D scorer can go well again off the same mark. |

3rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Four wins for Andrew Balding (including over C&D) but was pulled up on hurdling/stable debut in June and has finished tailed off back on the Flat (2m) in last two runs; on dangerous mark on this drop back in trip but she needs a major revival. |
25/1 |
|
2 (7) |
26th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |
11st 2lb |
Second to Moel Arthur over C&D in January (trained by Andrew Balding) and 3lb better off with that rival today; jumped poorly on her stable/hurdle debut at Stratford in June and then tailed off at Kempton (2m, AW) seven weeks ago; better than that but she does have something to prove for now. |
16/1 |

8th 7 (5) |

Bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Bath (1m2f, firm), beating Galaxy Wonder by half a length on the latest occasion; up another 2lb, but still a big player in his current mood. |

Regressive 6yo who managed only third of four over C&D (good; first-time tongue-tie) last month and is now 0-5 for his new stable this year; cheekpieces (no obvious effect when used twice last season) are given another whirl; revival needed. |

10st 3lb |
Reached the frame twice in similar races on AW under Brodie Hampson in February; well treated on those efforts but hasn't found the same form back on turf (good to firm/good) after a break, including well behind Star Start and Austrian Theory at Catterick 17 days ago; the return to softer ground could help but leap of faith needed. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |

4th 6 (8) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
All eight wins have been on AW but he's lost his way with heavy defeats at Newcastle (12.4f, Tapeta) and Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) in last two runs; still lightly raced on turf but he needs a major revival back in this sphere. |
20/1 |

11th 2 (5) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three-time winner over 1m4f/1m5f here and Taryn Langley gets on well with him, but he has never attempted this far before and he must put an uncharacteristically poor effort at Newcastle 13 days ago behind him. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Won a maiden at Huntingdon (2m, good) in May on third hurdle start and scored on the Flat at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) four weeks ago; in view of his Flat ability he has potential off this opening hurdle mark. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Resurgent on AW in early part of this year, winning six times including over C&D; opened hurdling account in May and he had an excuse on slow ground when returned to the Flat at Hamilton in June; now drops back in grade after a break and he needs a close look returned to AW. |
