28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 10lb |
Useful three-time Flat winner (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; his Ludlow run from off the pace was encouraging and he then won comfortably under a more forward ride at Southwell (2m, good; first-time tongue-tie); carries a penalty but has clear claims. |

Three Flat wins for Ed Walker (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; never got seriously involved under a patient ride at Ludlow but that run was promising; now tongue tied. |

Three Flat wins for Ed Walker (1m4f/1m5f) and was consistent until getting too high in the weights; should enjoy good ground on hurdle/stable debut and he's of clear interest. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |

Has a much better strike-rate on AW than on grass; soundly beaten off his lower turf mark returned to this sphere last time; opposed. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won a four-runner race at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) as a 3yo, but all five wins since have come on the AW; rated 9lb lower on grass but still hard to warm to on a rare turf appearance. |
16/1 |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Often makes the running but came from towards rear under Harry Vigors to win a six-runner race at Wolverhampton (1m6f) on latest outing; that broke a long losing run but he's usually competitive and has won over C&D; player. |

6th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Ran as though something was amiss on last of six Flat starts for Owen Burrows, but some of his form in that sphere was very promising and he'll be fine stamina-wise over hurdles for new stable; interesting to see how well he takes to this game. |

31st May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Brother to Arc winner Waldgeist; this 4yo, contrastingly, is a five-race maiden but he's placed on AW over 1m6f and 1m4f in his two handicaps and this longer trip is plausible; sole turf start was debut last August (tailed off on heavy); cheekpieces go on. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Switched to front-running this year, including with Tapeta wins over 1m4f here in March and 2m at Southwell in April when last seen; that's career-best AW form but this race is a much higher grade and should be much harder to boss. |

Flat winner on fast ground for David O'Meara; huge odds and well held in three maiden hurdles for this yard at 2m-2m1f; potential improver stepped up in trip for handicap debut. |

13th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
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. |

The last three of his ten wins were last May-September (two over 1m4f then one at 1m6f) and he's 6-18 at Catterick, unraced here since two placed efforts in 2020; well beaten at three other tracks this term but he's now back to his last winning mark. |
