20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Has started off very well for Michael Herrington, landing a big-field handicap at Ascot (5f, good to firm) and going close in another at Thirsk (5f, good; Spring Is Sprung fourth, American Bay seventh) three weeks ago; a further 2lb nudge shouldn't prevent a prominent showing in his current mood, particularly with the promising Conor Whiteley taking 7lb off. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Did well over 6f for Alice Haynes and coped fine with the drop back to 5f at Ascot where he was prominent throughout and prevailed by just over a length; this 6lb higher mark isn't beyond him. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Well handicapped on his best form for Alice Haynes and he made an encouraging stable debut when a close third at Southwell three weeks ago; one to be interested in. |

30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won three times over 5f last season and the form of her first two runs this year (one over C&D) is strong; her levels have dropped since and she was behind Hypnotised when fourth at Newbury (5f, good to firm) a fortnight ago but she'll be a threat to all off this mark if back on song. |
7/2 |

4th 5 (9) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Gained three 5f wins in the second half of 2025, but disappointing this year after a promising reappearance; needs to get back on track but drops back in grade after facing a stiff task in York Grade 3 last time. |
3/1 |
|
8th 6 (10) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive sprinter in 2025; promising reappearance second in Yarmouth handicap (5f, good to soft) but hasn't built on it twice since, finishing well held tackling Listed company for the first time at Ayr three weeks ago; her claims aren't obvious. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Won over C&D (good to firm) in June before respectable eighth of 20 at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good; second of six in near-side group); versatile ground-wise and has run really well on both visits to Salisbury; chance. |
12/1 |
|
8th 7 (21) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Close up over C&D in June (soft) and gained her first win away from Windsor when challenging 1f out and just holding on at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) on latest start; 2lb rise is no big deal but this race is way deeper. |
25/1 |

1st 6 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Has performed creditably a few times this term but her form surprisingly dipped at Windsor last time, has gained both wins at that venue; others preferred. |

28th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Improved for the switch to handicaps, winning well at Kempton in April and showing better form when second of 12 at Chester two weeks ago (6f, good); had a wider trip than the winner on that latest occasion (caught seven wide around the first bend) and has just a 1lb rise; unraced on faster than good but remains open to further progress. |
11/2 |

13th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Came away with a subsequent winner off 6lb lower on his handicap debut (Polytrack) in April; inclined to pull hard when held up in a race not run to suit on his turf debut latest and is better than able to show there. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 (3) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
In the frame in three novice/maiden events and he made an immediate impact in handicaps when scoring at Kempton (6f, AW) last month; up 6lb but that was a major step forward last time and he's open to more progress; respected on turf debut. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
A maiden after 28 starts, with tendencies to start slowly and race too freely, but has made the frame on his last five appearances, including two seconds in this grade at Brighton (6f, good to firm) this summer; fine over 7f and a likely contender once again; has tried various headgear combinations this year; goes in just the refitted cheekpieces today. |
6/5 |
|
4th 5 (1) |
29th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Exposed 27-race maiden; runner-up in 6f classified events at Brighton on his last two starts (beaten favourite on each occasion); should run his race but others appeal more for win purposes. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 13 (8) |
7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
In good nick this summer for George Baker; advanced his form when a ready winner on his debut for Dylan Cunha in 14-runner apprentices' handicap over C&D 11 days ago; escapes a penalty here so holds leading claims with Billy Loughnane now up. |
3/1 |

1st 1 (10) |
16th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
New trainer decides against the cheekpieces (and regular tongue-tie) that worked well for this 4yo in his last two races, when he had the outside stall at Kempton and raced wide throughout at Wolverhampton (again over 6f); C&D winner with a good chance. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
21st Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Ran a blinder from the outside stall when beaten a short head and a neck into third of 11 at Kempton (6f, Polytrack; first-time cheekpieces) 19 days ago; has winning form on Tapeta and respected back down to Class 6. |

7th 3 (5) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up on consecutive starts in Ireland (7f/7.4f) in June but made a low-key stable debut at Ayr (1m2f, good to firm) last month and still has stamina to prove over this sort of trip. |
8/1 |
|
8th 5 (8) |
20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Won twice over 7f when trained by George Scott; initially struggled in Ireland but finished second in a couple of handicaps at around 7f last month; beaten favourite over 7f here two week ago, after which he left Maurice Ahern; stamina for 1m2f has to be taken on trust and he goes without headgear on his stable debut. |

28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Moderate handicap debut over 6f but he was seen to better effect when ridden more prominently at Yarmouth (good; second-time tongue-tie) recently, successful on first 7f attempt; back up 4lb; strong contender. |
6/4 |
|
1st 3 (8) |
11th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Caught the eye on his debut at Kempton (6f, AW) but he failed to progress in his next two starts and it was the same story on handicap debut at Windsor (6f, good; first-time tongue-tie) last month; needs to take a big step forward from that first start for 112 days now stepping up to 7f. |
12/1 |
|
8th 9 (4) |
24th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Down the field in three AW runs, most recently when last of ten at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in February; still early days and now goes handicapping but he needs a transformation on his return; tongue-tie added. |

28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 4f 217y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Generally disappointing since winning first two 2yo races but was third in first-time blinkers at Leicester (5f, good to firm) two starts ago and didn't run badly last time; continues to slide down the weights; shortlisted. |
6/1 |
|
5th 8 (2) |
13th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Bright start to career when winning first two races (5f; AW and turf) but he hasn't gone on and a recent third of nine at Leicester (5f, good to firm; first-time blinkers) wasn't particularly reassuring. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 7 (1) |
3rd Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Essentially disappointing since looking a useful prospect in winning his first two races as a juvenile; ran particularly poorly last time at Windsor when tried in cheekpieces and now has a go in blinkers; risky. |
