1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Flat winner at 1m2f in May 2025; refused to race in May this year but he came nearest to a first hurdle win when close up in an ordinary handicap at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago; shouldn't be far away. |
8/1 |

3rd 1 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Displayed promise when making the frame in two maiden hurdles (2m, good/good to firm) this spring but he refused to race on the Flat in between and needs to improve to overcome top weight on this handicap hurdle debut. |
10/1 |

4th 4 |
19th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Has regressed on the Flat since winning small-field Bath handicap for another stable a year ago; made fairly encouraging hurdle debut when keeping on for modest third at Plumpton (2m, good) last month but needs to build on that performance here and has since refused to race on the Flat. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Made hay initially for this yard last March-June; pretty consistent this year but with only the one win (with first-time visor over hurdles in April) and he may again have to settle for minor honours. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 2 |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Consistent on the Flat/over hurdles this year, and deserved last month's narrow win at Plumpton (2m, good; only time he wore a visor); can remain very competitive after 3lb rise. |
7/4 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Doubled his tally over hurdles when winning in a first-time visor at Plumpton last month but he was below his best back on the Flat at Goodwood (1m6f, good) 13 days ago; drops back down in grade with a place chance. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
His last win was off 9lb higher over 1m4f at Brighton in September 2023; some efforts on AW during the winter were respectable but his return to Brighton last month saw him tailed off after a slow start; none too solid. |
12/1 |

21st May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
His last success was off 7lb higher over C&D (good) but that was in September 2023; some respectable efforts on AW during the winter and wasn't disgraced back over hurdles in March but others are more persuasive. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
8yo who went 21 months without a win but has now scored at Windsor, Lingfield, Chepstow and Ripon in his four races this turf season; his second in this race last year was a remote one and the 6lb rise since his latest start asks a question, but conditions fine and he's on a major roll, ridden by Sarah Bowen on last two starts (two in four days); major player. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (4) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 10y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Completed the hat-trick at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) on Monday; carries a 4lb penalty for that and stays 1m4f fine, so likely to have a major role to play again under Sarah Bowen, if electing to stand his ground. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (10) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Frequent slow starter who's enjoyed a revival since returned to turf, minus the tongue-tie and headgear; looked to have a bit more in hand than the final margin at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) off 3lb lower last time and holds obvious claims. |

21st May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Completed a 1m6f double at Wolverhampton last summer but he's lost his way since and has been tailed off in two AW runs this spring; has lots to prove back on turf and he's 0-10 in this sphere. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Multiple winner at around 1m4f (turf and AW); 3lb lower than her latest success, in February; well below par on her last four starts, including over C&D latest; revival needed dropping in grade. |
16/1 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Seven-time winner, the latest on AW (1m4f) in February; quiet on her last three starts but she has slipped down the weights as a result. |
16/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 1m4f AW victory at Lingfield but her more recent form is not so encouraging, sixth of eight in 1m4f Chepstow handicap 12 days ago; more is required in a change of headgear. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Won at Windsor last June for Mark Hoad but form went the wrong way for that yard; no revival on his three runs for this stable. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Sprung a 40-1 surprise at Windsor in June (1m, good to firm); now 2lb lower but that is a result of having shown little since; handles Polytrack but others look safer. |
