4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
In good form since returning from a break, winning at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in May before close third at Salisbury (6f, soft); there's still mileage in his mark on his old form and he could be in the shake-up. |

9th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Unraced on soft; runner-up over this C&D last month before going on better at Windsor on good to firm 17 days ago; still fairly treated following a 3lb rise but testing ground would be a concern. |

C&D winner last spring off a 4lb higher mark who finished a clear second on his return to turf nine days ago; 2lb higher now but having Jack Callan (1-11 for the yard) up to take off 3lb won't hurt; one to consider. |

Three wins last year, at 5.5f and 7f, final start on firm ground at Bath; encouraging yard debut here last month when close fourth over conventional 5f; slightly longer trip here should suit so considered off same mark. |

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 |

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. |

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 |

7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

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. |

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. |

Has a suitable scenario as his form over C&D includes a win last summer and he turned in a resurgent effort on latest outing; has something to prove at this level, however, having raced only in lower grades. |
40/1 |

4th 3 (2) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Yard having a quiet year thus far and this gelding is a deal higher (12lb) in the weights than when winning this in first-time cheekpieces 12 months ago; not in much form this season and has to prove this mark is within range on turf. |
12/1 |

6th 1 (4) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Defied this mark at Chelmsford (7f, AW) last October but he's been out of sorts at Newmarket and Ascot in his two runs this season; now drops back in grade but he's 1-13 on turf and others are more convincing; reapplied visor replaces cheekpieces. |

9st 9lb |
Had a wide draw but still went close at Wolverhampton last month (6f), as she did in a Redcar nursery last season; well held at Goodwood since then but needs considering with blinkers on for cheekpieces. |
7/1 |

8th 2 (5) |
13th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Found to be in season when closing out last year with a poor one and has had a couple of wide stalls to deal with this spring, including when going close from the front at Wolverhampton last time; nudged up 2lb but is one to consider. |

Fairly consistent sort; ran up to her best when runner-up here (6f) 11 days ago; first-time hood replaces visor and good chance that stepping back up in trip can eke out further improvement. |

2nd 8 (2) |
6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

6th 1 (3) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |

Just a nursery win for another yard to her name and expensive to follow this year, getting turned over as favourite three times; consistent enough but been nudged up the weights in defeat and is having just a second try at 5f. |

Back to the same career-low mark she cashed in on in first-time blinkers at Goodwood in June (6f, good), progress having stalled again since; holds Connie's Rose and Papabella on last month's Leicester clash, albeit she was fairly well held herself; place rather than win claims. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Below her best in one run on good to soft and was taken out on account of soft ground early in the month, so could do with some drying weather; proved consistent since blinkers went on but needs to find a bit more from somewhere. |

0-13 (placed four times on turf from 5f-7.5f); acts on Tapeta but not yet proven on Polytrack; drops 2lb after latest Wolverhampton defeat (6f, Tapeta) and has the ability to have a say from this mark. |

22nd Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

20th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Unsuited by soft ground when a beaten favourite 18 days ago and now 0-11, but her close third at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) two starts ago was a good effort and she should be okay back on Tapeta. |

Poor effort last time will need forgiving but he's always been capable of the odd stinker; better drawn than for two runs here early in the year and it wouldn't be a shock to see him bounce back. |

|
9th 8 (8) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |

Only 1-14 but he's a strong traveller who only narrowly missed out at Lingfield (6f) and Goodwood (5f, good) before a midfield finish at Windsor where never really involved; has a big effort in him. |

|
5th 2 (3) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Record of 1-13 but he's been knocking on the door at Lingfield (6f, AW) and Goodwood (5f, good) this spring; up another 2lb but this strong traveller was only just caught last time and the first three pulled clear in that race; key player. |
