29th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Enjoyed a fine 2025 when scoring five times, including twice over C&D; yet to fire this season though, beating only one in 1m2f handicap at Haydock last time; cheekpieces are reached for now. |

3rd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Got on a roll at the start of last summer, with the final leg of a five-timer coming over C&D (good); hasn't found the same form this year, though, and remains 3lb above the mark she defied here. |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Placed on three of four starts since winning 1m4f Ffos Las classified (good to soft) in June and not yet exposed over this longer trip but 2lb wrong today and others look stronger. |
20/1 |

3rd 3 (1) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won a classified event at Ffos Las (1m4f, good to soft) in June and he's finished placed in two of his three runs since; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if this sets up for the closers. |
4/1 |

Just held on to pip Adrian in C&D (good to soft) classified in June and has finished third off today's mark in two subsequent C&D handicaps (both on good); has obvious each-way claims again. |

13th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Dual 1m4f winner this season, latterly in six-runner Class 6 contest here last month; up in grade today and suffered early mishap on latest appearance but remains completely unexposed over this trip. |
14/1 |

25th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Dual Leicester winner who made it second-time lucky on AW when scoring at Wolverhampton (1m4f) three weeks ago; still looks feasibly treated off 3lb higher but he's untried at this trip and his best turf form has been on good to firm; some reservations. |
10/1 |

1st 6 (2) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Both wins have been at Leicester, latest in July off 7lb lower; has been beaten twice off a higher mark and may need to come down a few pounds. |

26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Progressive sort who's scored twice this term and ran well again at Windsor (11.5f, good) 18 days ago; steps out of his grade but this trip might unlock more and he's a likeable sort who threatens to give the classier types a proper workout. |
7/1 |
|
12 (8) |
8th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Unraced on softer than good; ran well at Newbury (1m4f) most recently, taking record this season to 3431132; that consistency makes him one to consider. |
13/2 |
|
7 (1) |
16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Progressing and going up in trip has helped; front-running win when 4-6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in June and he saw off a Prescott-trained hotpot to follow up at Ffos Las (1m4f, good) in July; close third at Chester on latest outing and may still have more to give. |

5th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Dual Flat winner; no easy task in a maiden last time and has run well in a couple of handicaps; could have a part to play if reacting positively to the new tongue-tie. |
7/1 |
|
5th 8 |
17th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 5lb |
Dual Flat winner; 0-6 over hurdles and the worst of those runs was the latest in a handicap at Carlisle; gets all the allowances as a 4yo filly but others probably have greater upside even if she is back to something like her best. |
12/1 |
|
9th 7 |
22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 5 |

Dual Flat winner; 0-5 over hurdles but very consistent and every chance of being involved off a slightly reduced mark. |

Not solid on her turf form for new stable; may benefit from this return to Wolverhampton, having gained sole win here (8.5f). |
33/1 |

9th 11 (8) |
30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 5lb |
Didn't look in love with soft ground at Brighton two weeks ago but his fourth on stable debut was in a classified race; others safer. |

15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
8st 7lb |
Fair fourth in classified event here (7f, good to firm) on stable debut in June; this step back up in trip looks a positive but she's now 1-14 and still has something to prove on slow ground; mixed messages. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Resumed from a layoff in good nick, her stamina carrying the day over 1m on comeback before a solid effort off her revised mark over C&D last time; one to consider under Billy Loughnane in first-time headgear. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (3) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Far too inconsistent to rely upon heavily but just did enough to cause 22-1 surprise on recent seasonal debut at Salisbury (1m, good to firm; front pair clear), and could be seen to even better effect now back up in trip. |

14th May 2025 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-6; well beaten on handicap/seasonal debut at Kempton (first-time tongue-tie and blinkers); posted slightly better efforts in two starts since stepping up in trip (9.4f/1m2f) with cheekpieces added but more is required. |

First piece of worthwhile form when third of six at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month, her second handicap, but was about 3l behind Hawkesbury Legend there and needs to improve again here. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Showed little in her five races for Darryll Holland, the last two of which were handicaps in the spring; has tried cheekpieces and blinkers (latest start) once each, and now it's a visor for new connections; her new trainer has turned a fair few around before, mind you. |
16/1 |

9th 10 (2) |
14th May 2025 Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Showed little in three starts last year (7f/1m) and she failed to beat a rival home on her handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m, good) last month; first-time blinkers need to make the difference now stepping up in trip. |

10st 2lb |
12-race maiden; failed to complete in last two starts (FP) and he's likely to be priced accordingly from 3lb out of the handicap; best to look elsewhere. |
