1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner over hurdles (2m4f/3m) but he's 0-5 on the Flat; plugged on for a modest fourth in a maiden at Carlisle (1m3f, soft) 22 days ago and now steps back up in trip on this return to handicap company. |

9st 1lb |
Lightly raced 5yo; tried blinkered and tongue tied when last of eight in 1m Southwell handicap in October on his final run for Paul Attwater; lots more is required for his new yard. |

30th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-6 for three different trainers in a little under two years; ran well when fourth of nine on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in July but has been off another four months since; needs more for the new headgear combination. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
2-6 on Flat, with the second win registered over C&D (good) last August; two wins among his five hurdle races this season, including latest start, so he should be primed to run well again today. |
6/1 |
|
1st 4 |
29th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 157y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Dual Flat winner who progressed again to edge out Talakan at Ludlow in February and, although it was a rather sobering defeat at Warwick, that was against older opposition; good ground won't bother him but others might be on kinder marks. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Acts on any ground; dual Flat winner who has shown steady progress in juvenile hurdles, most recently making all at Ludlow (2m) where held on by a neck from Talakan (declared 2:10); one of the main players. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won her maiden on AW in the spring and has proved consistent since, including in course handicap at the Royal meeting and at Listed/Group 3 level; quite a keen goer and this drop to 7f for the time since her debut could be a good move; acts on soft; gets the vote. |
5/1 |

11 (1) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Improved again when going down by 1l to Blue Bolt in C&D Listed event (good to firm) in July; her run of progressive form came to a halt when only fifth (American Gal second) in 1m Ascot Group 3 last time but she raced more freely than ideal. |

2nd Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won AW handicaps at Kempton (7f) and Southwell (1m) last August and he's been in good form in the UAE this winter, including when runner-up at Abu Dhabi (1m, good) on his penultimate run; returns after 111 days off but he's strongly respected back on Polytrack. |
7/2 |
|
1st 2 (8) |
25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well backed and left earlier efforts well behind when winning a 7f handicap at Kempton 19 days ago; a 7lb rise asks more of him but the extra furlong shouldn't be an issue and he's capable of better; strong claims. |
6/4 |

6th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Regressive RPRs at novice level but this son of Wootton Bassett is in good hands and may start to progress now handicapping; there was promise on his debut (sole Polytrack attempt); interesting. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Maiden who had a reasonably solid record last term but proved far less consistent this year; otherwise capable of taking a serious hand, provided he turns up in good form. |
8/1 |
|
7th 9 (12) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
12-race maiden; had a near miss dropped into Class 5 company at Lingfield in April (1m2f); fair run on turf last month despite finishing last of the four runners; each-way shout. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (2) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
11-race maiden who returned to form with a near-miss over 1m2f on the AW 14 days ago, despite being slow to break; first-time headgear might do something for him; effective on grass. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Fair, four-race maiden on AW Flat for Jamie Osborne last year; runner-up in two of his eight hurdle races for Warren Greatrex but soundly beaten on last two outings, claimed for £6,000 from a seller in May on latest; best watched for now. |
25/1 |

5th 6 |
27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |

Relegated into a seller and he has form claims, having finished runner-up on two occasions this year; however, he did run desperately only ten days ago. |
5/1 |

6th 3 |
17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
0-6 over hurdles but ran well when close second at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) last month and is probably still on a workable mark after 1lb nudge; good chance. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Unraced at two; rapidly developed into a smart performer last year, making it 3-3 when just coming out on top in the Listed Glasgow at Hamilton (1m3f) in July; lost unbeaten record when third in 1m2f Longchamp Group 3 in the autumn but the two ahead of him were Croix Du Nord and Daryz and it was another slight step forward in terms of RPRs; raced only on good/very soft on turf; a surprise if there isn't more to come from him in 2026. |
11/2 |
|
1st 3 (4) |
18th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Picked up well from an unpromising position to run down smart stablemate Cajole on 8.6f Wolverhampton debut in May and confirmed himself an exciting prospect with a 4l win under a penalty over 1m2f at Windsor (good) since; the way he powered clear in the closing stages suggests the slightly longer trip this evening will suit and this Group-entered colt can take the step up to Listed level in his stride. |
13/8 |
|
3 (10) |
9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
By Make Believe out of a fairly useful 1m winner; 12-1 for 13-runner novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) 13 days ago and hampered at the start, but he travelled comfortably off the pace and passed eight rivals in the straight to win from a short-priced stablemate; that's easily the best form in this field and he looked highly promising. |

18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Displayed promise in the spring on his first three starts (7f/8.6f, AW); returns from a break having been gelded and if he's anywhere near his best he'll be tough to beat for his top yard. |
5/6 |

27th May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Promising fourth of 13 behind the smart Cosmic Year on Kempton debut (7f, Polytrack) and beaten just a short head in a first-time tongue-tie (now removed) in a five-runner Newcastle maiden (7f, Tapeta; third has won since) next time; high on list. |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dead-heated for first in a 1m2f handicap at Lingfield (Polytrack) in June but two poor efforts since; this is just his fourth handicap but a revival won't be easy from the widest stall. |
25/1 |

13 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Dead-heated for first at Lingfield in June when upped to 1m2f on handicap debut; that AW performance remains very much his best effort, though, as he disappointed when favourite back on turf at Doncaster (1m2f, good) three weeks ago. |

16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Gained a breakthrough success at Newcastle (1m4f) in January; back from five months off in good nick, though seemed unsuited by the drop back in trip when fifth of eight at Nottingham (1m2f) 12 days ago; remains unexposed over this trip so very much one to consider. |
11/4 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has a patchy profile but he won a Newcastle handicap (1m4f, AW) in January and was a close fourth on his Musselburgh reappearance (12.4f, good) last month; this is a deeper race but has possibilities if he gets a good pace back at this trip. |
3/1 |

4th 1 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Looked to be on the up when gaining a first win in 1m4f Newcastle handicap but he failed to back it up under a penalty when ninth at Southwell (1m3f) later in January; freshened up since so he can't be ruled out. |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Quite nicely bred and her dam stayed 1m4f so she could step up on the mild improvement shown when fifth of eight in a classified event here (about 1m1f) two weeks ago; fitting cheekpieces might also help. |

5th 8 (7) |
10th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

Massive prices and not within 17l of the winner in three starts over 7f/8.6f on the AW; hard to recommend unless backed. |
