8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has shown most of his handicap form over 7f, winning twice on AW; however, both 2026 efforts suggest this return to 6f is worth exploring; effective on turf and he's on a handy mark. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Always the danger he'll fluff the start, as he did on his C&D comeback in March; not beaten far that day and is on his last winning mark but comes with risks attached. |

4th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Front-runner; 5lb lower than for his near miss at Lingfield (7f) in December; not at best in two runs back from a break but the type to come good again soon; perhaps that will be in a race that will feature fewer pace influences than this one. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
0-9 on the AW but he has gone close on two occasions, including when beaten a head at Lingfield (7f) in December; below his best on his next two outings and was last of seven at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month; needs to take a step forward. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who won two 7f turf handicaps last summer; also close second off 1lb higher at Lingfield (7f) in December but his form dipped in two subsequent starts last winter; off for 169 days so his peak fitness has to be taken on trust. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

Dual 7f Wolverhampton winner over the winter; not discredited, given he was set a lot to do, when sixth of 11 in 7f Lingfield handicap 18 days ago; considered from an easing mark. |

27th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Four-time winner who can be slowly away; made a winning stable debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) off 5lb lower in January and wasn't beaten far when fourth at Chelmsford (7f, AW) last time; up in grade now back on turf and this smaller field probably isn't ideal for him due to his hold-up style, but he holds place claims. |

9st 4lb |
Dropped a long way in the weights since joining this yard and not really looked like capitalising; visor tried for the first time; not solid but a revival wouldn't be a total shock (attracted some support last time). |
7/1 |

6th 8 (12) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who regressed for this yard last year and has landed the outside stall; however, didn't look to see out an extended 1m on his turf comeback and is on a competitive mark now in first-time headgear; possibilities. |
12/1 |

8th 6 (2) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won in Ireland (7f) in 2024 but he was unplaced in six runs for new yard last year; mark continues to fall but he needs a transformation back up in trip after six months off. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
His last win was 11 months ago but he's a reliable type who has been placed at Chester (7.6f, good) and Chelmsford (7f, AW) in last two runs; finished behind Finbar's Lad last time but he's 5lb better off with that rival and should go well again back on turf. |

Ran respectably at Chester returned to turf last time; he's 0-8 this year but remains favourably treated, being 6lb below last winning mark; three-time C&D scorer. |

17th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Has been advancing her form in handicaps and she made the breakthrough when scoring narrowly in 14-runner handicap at Southwell (6f, AW) three weeks ago; up 4lb for that short-head win but the second was a comfortable winner next time; big player if potential soft ground proves okay. |

1st 9 (5) |
25th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Turned in her best handicap effort so far when third of eight at Windsor last month (6f, good; hooded for the first time); more will be needed to take this but progress is possible after just six starts. |

3rd 1 (8) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

Promise in 7f maidens on her first two starts; no progress since but a hood is added now dropping back to 6f and she could prove suited by the shorter distance. |
