9st 8lb |
Two Yarmouth runs over 1m2f in April tie in closely with A Major Payne, including when a whisker behind that rival in third a fortnight ago; shouldn't be much between the pair again. |

30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won at Sandown (1m2f) last summer in first two starts after cheekpieces were refitted; respectable in two of four starts since, including over C&D recently when finishing on the heels of A Major Payne; should be competitive. |

Successful in first two starts after cheekpieces were refitted, at Sandown (1m2f; good and soft) last summer, but his form went to pot in two of three runs after; needs to return in much better form. |

7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
A fair 1m2f winner at his best for Alice Haynes, but he's failed to beat a rival in handicaps at Lingfield (1m5f) and Bath (1m) in 2026; others appeal more. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Sole win (21 races) was over 1m2f at Yarmouth last May but subsequent efforts include two seconds; left Alice Haynes for 17,000gns in October and came last of 12 (hood removed) when upped to 1m5f for new yard in February; now has a bit to prove over a trip this short. |

Off a reduced mark he was only 2.5l away in the first-time tongue-tie at Leicester (1m4f) and he does stay this far; respected. |

26th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |

Maiden whose best efforts have come at Wolverhampton and who's tried in a first-time tongue-tie off the back of two poor runs on turf; this is easier but has something to prove currently. |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Promising debut on turf last August but he ran poorly on Tapeta next time and in two handicaps for previous trainer; showed more when a staying-on fourth of 12 at Windsor (1m) 15 days ago on yard debut and has a good run in him despite the unfavourable terms. |
5/1 |

4th 2 (11) |
1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Made a promising debut last August (7.6f, good to soft) but that remains his standout effort and he has finished down the field in two handicap runs this summer; sold out of Michael Bell's yard for 1,500gns in July; new yard have made their name reviving stock from elsewhere so he's one to note on his stable debut; hood joins the blinkers today. |
14/1 |

29th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has failed to back up debut effort and a switch to handicap level made no difference last time (1m2f); chance largely depends on whether first-time headgear prompts improvement. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
0-10 but he was beaten only a neck when third of seven here over 1m on stable debut last month; below that form when fifth of six at Haydock (1m2f, good) ten days ago; drops back to 7f for the first time since his debut and needs to bounce back returned to this track. |
7/1 |

4 (3) |
21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
0-9 but he's dropped down the weights and was a close second on recent stable debut at Brighton (1m, good to firm; 22-1); looks interesting off unchanged mark and he has some novice form at this trip; shortlisted. |
5/1 |
|
8 (5) |
9th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Respectable third on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in December, but his form went the wrong way in three subsequent runs for Marco Botti; record is now 0-8 and has plenty to prove for new yard. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Nine-race maiden who ended last term with two poor shows, with blinkers given a go on final outing; subsequently left Brian Meehan for 15,000gns in October; has a piece of 1m2f form, but below form on his only start on softer than good and non-runner for old yard when the ground was testing. |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
0-8 and didn't run very well at Bath (1m2f, good to firm) eight days ago, but placed in his first four handicaps including in both starts over C&D; shortlisted back here with blinkers given a go. |
8/1 |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |

No wins in seven but consistent in handicaps and finished his race out well for second at Kempton (1m); return to 1m2f is worth exploring. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Landed hat-trick this time last year, including two round Brighton, so this track won't be a concern; a string of poor efforts since, though, including when beaten a long way behind Pride Of Nepal at Windsor last week. |
16/1 |
|
13th 10 (5) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Fired off a hat-trick at this trip in cheekepices last May/June but he's been well held on last five starts, including when making his comeback at Yarmouth last month; visor (unplaced previously) is tried for a third time. |
25/1 |

30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
1m2f turf hat-trick last May/June (Brighton and Pontefract); went off the boil and last of five on reappearance in January but he's well handicapped if springing back to life; 0-15 record at Yarmouth includes some places. |

8st 6lb |
Didn't show much last year on first three starts and beaten about 8l when fourth of six on recent handicap and seasonal debut here (1m, good to firm); however, he made some late headway in a race that has worked out well and this Ulysses 3yo may improve for today's step up in trip; a possible. |

Half-brother to two winners; finished well held in three runs last year (two here) and has since been gelded; starts handicap life at a lowly level and support back from seven months off would see him enter the equation in a weak-looking race. |
