16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Not in the same form as he was in May and June last year but he's on a lowly mark now and, after being pushed along from some way out, he did stick well to the task when fourth over C&D (good to firm) recently; form case to be made down in grade. |

4th 7 (6) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Yet to be placed after six starts this season (5f-7f) but won off a much higher mark last spring, at Ripon (6f, good to soft), and may yet turn things around; worth a glance in the betting. |
12/1 |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Campaigned mostly over 6f; inconsistent since sole win; his chance of taking advantage of a reduced mark partly depends on the effects of this return to 7f; record over this trip isn't fully conclusive. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

No wins in 23 but has been banging at the door in recent months and won't mind returning to 7f. |

3rd 3 (5) |
7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-22 but he has been banging at the door in recent months, most recently a close second over C&D nine days ago; cheekpieces were absent there but they return tonight; should go well again. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 9 (2) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Record stands at 0-21 but he has been banging at the door on AW and turf since April; well drawn for one that races prominently and he should be in the thick of it once again. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Four wins over 5f/6f last season; back to winning ways at Thirsk last time (6f, good to firm; cheekpieces back on); not ideally drawn but a contender off 4lb higher. |
7/2 |

1st 5 (15) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won three sprint handicaps last spring and he is now 9lb lower than for the last of them; 2026 had been a struggle until he emerged from the doldrums with a good second at Ripon (6f, good) two weeks ago; now has something to build on. |
7/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won two in a row over 6f at Ripon (good) last May but he's been out of sorts this season and was last eight back here three weeks ago; now 9lb lower than for his last success but he needs a major revival back in trip; cheekpieces reapplied. |

10th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two AW wins in early 2025, over 7f at Chelmsford and 6f at Wolverhampton, both under Rossa Ryan; her form took a turn for the worse, including for him, in the second half of the year but she didn't do badly in a slowly run C&D race won by Ashford Hill last time and Ryan returns to the saddle. |
6/1 |

28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Dual AW winner who has slipped to an attractive mark; well capable of being involved but isn't particularly solid on her form since returned to this sphere. |
8/1 |

6th 4 (5) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Triple AW winner (6f/7f), who scored on turf at Salisbury last May; now 5lb lower than for that last success but she's not been at her best since and needs to raise her game back up in trip. |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
14-race maiden but he returned to form with a creditable third at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) 17 days ago; that was more like it with blinkers added and has claims if he can back that up. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 7 (1) |
5th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
13-race maiden; has attracted support on a few occasions, including at Doncaster on her seasonal return, and could yet have a bigger run in him; blinkers replace the hood or cheekpieces worn on his last three starts. |
12/1 |
|
9th 11 (2) |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-12 and well beaten at Newcastle when last seen in November; he was sent off favourite on that occasion and returns from a break off a 2lb lower mark; no doubt the ability is there to win races if the addition of a hood has a calming effect (often races too freely). |

In the frame in three of his seven starts for Karl Burke, but out of the frame in seven starts for this yard (blinkers made no difference last time); passed over. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Remains winless and he's yet to fire for his current yard, only 12th in 6f Doncaster handicap six days ago; blinkers go on here. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |

Ex-Karl Burke; exposed 12-race maiden who is on a fair mark but needs to improve on his recent form; poor run last time with cheekpieces which are left off here. |

29th May 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Out the back in three maiden/novice runs over further but the last two runs haven't been devoid of promise; faces a more realistic challenge now handicapping, even from 3lb wrong; stable on a seven-month losing run but he needs a market check. |
