22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Lacks recent match practice, remains on career-high mark and won't have her apparent ideal ground (good to firm) unless the weather lends her a big hand; not the percentage call. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |

Poor draw when fourth behind Clearpoint here in September; dominant display when seeing off seven rivals from the front here three weeks ago; 6lb rise demands another career best but she's on an upward curve. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Three poor efforts since returned to turf; now back to the mark off which she won at Yarmouth (sole turf win) last July but she'll need a major revival against some in-form sprinters. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |

30th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Exposed filly who was found a weak, small-field Wolverhampton handicap in April and has otherwise looked to have little in hand this season; vulnerable to improvers once more. |
10/1 |
|
4th 4 (7) |
17th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won narrowly from three rivals at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) in April and only just beaten in one go over C&D, but needs to bounce back from a modest effort at Nottingham (5f, good) this month (behind Galaxy Zoo). |
9/2 |

1st Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Not an instant success in handicaps but the return to 5f helped when putting up a game show to win with nothing to spare on AW in April; a subsequent Yarmouth third suggests more will be needed in this higher grade. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins include a successful stable debut at Brighton (5.5f, good to firm) and he wasn't beaten far under a penalty when fourth of five at Lingfield (5f, AW) three weeks ago; career-high mark but he's respected. |
7/2 |

4th 2 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Yet another to win first time out for this yard when turning in a career-best effort at Brighton last Sunday; makes appeal under a penalty for that, especially with Jack Callan taking off 3lb, and he looks to have Ancient State to worry about. |
5/4 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 60y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Two wins for Jack Jones last year, a 6f novice (good to firm) at this track and a 5f handicap at Windsor (good to firm); ended 2025 with two lesser efforts and he was again below par on his seasonal return in April; back down the weights as a result and he wouldn't be the first horse to be revived by a move to James Owen (same owners). |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Ran out of puff having lost a shoe at Windsor on his comeback last month and he again faded having attempted to make all over C&D (good to firm) 19 days later; becoming attractively handicapped, however, and could be building up to something bigger. |
6/1 |

5th 1 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
His wins have come from the front in the summer, including this time last year on his second run back; turned in a satisfactory comeback at Windsor, when losing a shoe, and is entitled to have come on for that first start in seven months; shortlisted. |
7/2 |

5th 8 (6) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Scored at Lingfield (5f, AW) last June and signed off with a good third of ten in 5f Yarmouth handicap in October; in the mix if fully tuned up for his seasonal return. |

15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Gained a belated first turf success (18th attempt) when getting up on the line at Musselburgh (5f, good) 15 days ago; his record doesn't make him an obvious one to follow up but he should remain competitive off 4lb higher. |
9/2 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
3-12 on AW compared to 0-17 on turf but last week's second at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) suggests he can pick up a win on the grass off this sort of mark; has to enter calculations, although any easing of the ground possibly not ideal. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 5 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All three wins have been on the AW at Wolverhampton over 5f but he caught the eye finishing strongly for fourth at Thirsk (5f, good; Irish Dancer was second) nine days ago; possibly an unfortunate loser on that occasion having been hampered against the rail and and could make amends. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two 6f wins last year and registered a third when coming out on top in a good tussle at Yarmouth (good to firm) in late May; up to this grade and caught a little wide when last of seven at Salisbury ten days ago, however. |

Narrowly beat a subsequent scorer (pair clear) at Yarmouth last time, taking his record over 6f to 3-6; may be capable of further progress kept to this distance; respected. |

8th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Still 5lb higher than for her last win but she has been running with credit on AW for new trainer in recent starts; others appeal more for win purposes. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Her record at Chelmsford reads 1223; her latest third was a well-beaten one, however, and more minor money may be her best hope. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 6 (5) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Good effort when second over C&D last month, her third run for this stable; not quite so good at Lingfield last time but the return of the tongue-tie could give her a lift. |

3rd Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Hasn't built on her promising 2yo debut at Naas 12 months ago; big prices and well beaten in three runs for John Butler this year, including tried in cheekpieces last month; blinkers are now reached for; only of interest if attracting market support. |
20/1 |

7th 7 (3) |
17th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Went down only narrowly on her Naas debut (5f, good) for Ger Lyons last July, but not matched that form in four starts since including three for this yard; cheekpieces given a go and only of interest if attracting support. |

9th 5 (6) |
14th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 42y Class 5 |

Ex-Irish filly who has failed to back up debut effort; however, may be capable of improvement back at 5f on handicap debut and second start for new yard; check the betting. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Sole success came at Lingfield last September off 1lb higher; has ran well in three of his six runs this year, latest when third of five over 5f here last week (first-time cheekpieces, retained); not far away. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ran well for second over 6f here in April; two heavy defeats followed and although he ran a bit better at Lingfield last time, he was over 2l behind Shalaa Asker; now tried in another new form of headgear. |
11/4 |
|
5th 5 (6) |
4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Maiden; two poor efforts of late, with and without a hood, but he ran well for a long way behind a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (6f) in April and is worth another go at 5f; first-time blinkers today. |
13/2 |
