21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Last-gasp win under Taryn Langley in a warm race at Lingfield (2m, AW) on Good Friday; bumped into a well-handicapped rival at Goodwood (2m, good) since and respected off the same mark for last year's winning yard. |

3rd May 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won off 2lb higher at Goodwood (1m6f, good) last May, form which he's failed to match since but his last-gasp win under Taryn Langley in a warm race at Lingfield (2m, AW) 15 days ago was a healthy step back in the right direction; back up 4lb but back in serious calculations. |

Has proved consistent on the AW since last September, including when winning at Southwell (1m6f, Tapeta) last month; has run well off this mark in both outings since and looks one for the shortlist. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Minor honours in his last four AW races (1m5f/2m) but well beaten in his only two turf starts this term and absent since June; he has won twice but is not straightforward and does not look the percentage call; yard runs four. |
12/1 |

13th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Strong traveller who's far from easy and has hung both ways (normally to the left); arrives in good form for a yard among the winners, though, and is on a mark off which he can win when things fall right. |
7/1 |

5th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 5 |

Hurdle winner who got off the mark on the Flat over C&D in December; couple of creditable thirds here since then but he flopped at Ascot (last of eight) last month and needs to bounce back after that 13l defeat; stablemate of Donald Llewellyn. |

9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won over C&D in January on second handicap start and ran well in defeat the next twice, most recently fourth of 14 at Lingfield (2m, AW) in April in first-time cheekpieces (retained); this lightly raced 4yo could still have more to offer and he's a contender if fully tuned up after a break. |

Lightly raced 4yo who has improved since handicapping, including a narrow success at Kempton (2m, Polytrack) in January; cheekpieces now given a go and he may still have more to offer. |

21st May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 45y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Inconsistent for new yard in the second half of last year but posted wins at Musselburgh (2m2f, good to soft) and Nottingham (1m6f, heavy; when last seen); in the mix if at the top of her game on this reappearance. |
2/1 |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won at Musselburgh (2m2f, good to soft) last month on second stable start and didn't see out the stiff finish at Pontefract (2m2f, soft) last time; she's not discounted now back down in trip. |
13/2 |

20th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Ultra game from the front when winning last week's 2m2f Musselburgh Gold Cup (good to soft); effectively 4lb lower with Ashley Lewis taking off 7lb, but she had a very yard race and this rise in class may find her out. |

Dry since a C&D win off 12lb higher early last year and will need to put a couple of below-par efforts behind him; the return to Polytrack will help, though, and he can never be ruled out round here. |
5/1 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |

Four-time winner on the Flat for Richard Hughes and it's been a promising start over hurdles, winning a Southwell maiden last time without too much fuss (good); penalised accordingly but sets the standard. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |

Fairly useful four-time AW Flat winner in these silks for Richard Hughes and promising second of ten on his Warwick hurdle debut (2m, good to soft) for Olly Murphy 24 days ago; entitled to improve and the one to beat. |

2nd 7 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Four-time AW winner at up to 2m on Flat for Richard Hughes, reaching an RPR of 85 (has shown a similar level of form on turf); remains with same owner; has the potential to become a fairly useful hurdler. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Struggled over 1m at Southwell last month but relished the step back up in trip when winning at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; still fairly treated on his old form off this 3lb higher mark and has claims. |
100/30 |

1st 7 (8) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
1m2f win here (good to firm) kicked off a four-timer in 2023 for Tony Carroll but he took a while to rediscover his level before scoring at Chepstow (1m4f, good; first-time blinkers) for this yard one year ago; raced mainly over further without success since and latest start over 1m can be written off; handy mark and he's not discounted on just his second visit to Brighton. |
9/1 |

11th 5 (1) |
7th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten 11l when fifth in a maiden hurdle at Hereford three weeks ago; only 1lb higher than for his win at Chepstow (1m4f, good) last May but will likely find this trip on the sharp side on his switch back to the Flat (all wins over 1m2f or further). |

Record of ten wins from 34 starts on the AW; goes particularly well here, gaining fourth course success when scoring by 14l over 2m nine days ago; this trip no problem; will be hard to beat with a 5lb penalty. |

28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Nine wins on the AW including two over C&D (course record reads 22111544); would have finished closer with a clear run when fifth of eight at Bath (2m1f, good) 15 days ago and very much of interest back here. |
5/2 |

5th 2 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Added another two AW wins to his haul this winter; rated 7lb lower on turf but with some justification given his record on grass, including a heavy C&D defeat in April; not solid. |

9st 5lb |
Prolific winner, mostly on AW and at 1m6f-2m, including C&D; 1lb higher than when scoring here in February; not quite as good in two subsequent starts but looks a player back up in trip and with the same claimer up as for that most recent success. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Held on to win at Kempton (2m, AW) in February and posted a solid effort when fourth at Southwell (2m, AW) 84 days ago; off since and this drop back in trip probably isn't ideal on his first outing on turf since September 2023. |

Five-time AW winner who made it sixteenth time lucky on turf when seeing off five rivals over 1m4f at Doncaster (good to soft) under Conor Whiteley 26 days ago; 3lb higher in a deeper race now but the Michael Herrington stable continues in good form. |

10th 8 (12) |
31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |

0-14 on turf (5-19 on AW) but he ran well when he last tackled grass in summer 2024; returned from some time off with promising fourth at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last month and can be in the mix if building on that effort. |
