24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Second in the corresponding race 12 months ago when rated 6lb lower (only seven ran); he has progressed for his new stable this year, winning at Haydock in May and finishing second off this mark back at Haydock in August; not so good on soft ground on his last two starts; type to bounce back. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Flits between 6f and 7f with aplomb; 5lb higher than for his Haydock win in May (6f, good) though and not sure where the requisite improvement is coming from. |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |

Record of 0-9 for current stable but he has made the frame in last three attempts over 7f; could go well returned to this distance with Newbury reappearance (6f) under his belt. |
8/1 |

12th 11 (16) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
String of runs last summer (6f-7f) suggested he was ahead of his mark but he often ran into trouble and/or got going too late; no surprise at all were he to take this back from a break but he is not one for the faint of heart. |
8/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Two wins for Andrew Balding, the second an Ascot handicap in May 2024 (good), before 50,000gns sale last October; taken time to hit top form for new yard but sound runs on last two starts, latest a close third in a Newbury handicap last month (7f, good to soft); interesting. |

Twice a runner-up over 6f this winter, including here, but he raced too freely in one 7f run and he still has to prove he needs this far. |

3rd 7 (10) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Promising reappearance after wind surgery when fourth at Newcastle (6f) but has taken two backward steps since; has his first run beyond sprint distances here and needs to bounce back after seven weeks off. |
9/1 |

8th 6 (2) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Promising reappearance after wind surgery when fourth of 14 over C&D in January but failed to build on that when only sixth of seven at Lingfield (6f) four weeks ago; bounce back needed. |
11/1 |

6th 5 (7) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 2 |

Excelled as a 3yo but found the handicapper in command last year; promising reappearance at Newcastle six weeks ago (first run after wind surgery) and he is on a dangerous mark; widest stall to deal with but foolish to discount. |

Mixed results in higher grades on turf of late; has a better strike-rate (4-10) on AW and looks interesting returned to this sphere off 1lb below last winning mark. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

18th 21 (17) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Has a useful strike-rate on the AW but just 1-18 on turf; suffered some interference over C&D on his latest 6f start in July but he looks to have his share of weight relative to the company he keeps today. |

9st 9lb |
0-9 on the AW, but has gone very close on Tapeta on three occasions; 2lb lower than when beaten a head in a 0-110 contest over C&D in August and if able to reproduce that sort of form he would have a good chance. |
7/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Ended his lengthy losing run when winning a 7f handicap at Haydock in July; similar form on a couple of occasions since and he ran creditably in a hot 6f handicap at York two weeks ago; one to consider back down into Class 3 company. |
9/1 |

17 (11) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Not the force of old (won the Group 2 Temple Stakes in 2022) but he ended a long losing run at Haydock (7f, good) in July and went down only narrowly at Newcastle in August; however, he should have fared better at Ascot last time and he's been unplaced on both his previous outings at York. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly-raced 5yo who has won three of his six starts; readily justified short-priced favouritism at Windsor (6f, good to firm) when last seen in June and it is unlikely this mark is beyond him; takes on match-fit rivals here though and may come on for the run. |

29th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Close third behind Dark Thirty in this race 12 months ago; found some progress when cheekpieces were added in October, winning back-to-back handicaps at Pontefract and over C&D (soft; Korker second); perhaps found the heavy ground too much for him when last seen in November; can go well fresh and may find further progress this year; high on the list. |
7/2 |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Responded well to first-time cheekpieces in a tight finish at Pontefract (6f) most recently, taking record on soft ground to 1121331; may have more to offer in the retained headgear; successful on this card 12 months ago; enters calculations. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Far from straightforward and his best form has come on AW; two good runs and three poor runs since joining Ruth Carr, his latest Newcastle fourth (blinkered first time) falling into the former category; not the most solid option but he is better than this level on his day and it is always worth a second look when Billy Loughnane is booked for the stable (four wins and four seconds from 22 rides). |
10/1 |
|
4th 10 (8) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

5lb lower than when third on his stable debut in February; struggled since and connections now reach for blinkers; not solid but he's more than capable on his day. |
16/1 |
|
10th 2 (10) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Blew hot and cold for Jack Channon and signs that it may be the same for new connections, shaping well at Wolverhampton in February but turning in lesser efforts twice since; well handicapped if this is one of his good days and the return of cheekpieces (first time for Ruth Carr) looks a plus. |

10yo who may prefer slow ground but the going was good when he was fourth of 21 in this in 2024; often runs well here and he reappeared with a creditable fourth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) in March; each-way possible. |

Running in this race for the fourth time, having finished second in 2022 and 2024 and ninth last year; can go well fresh and he retained a good chunk of ability last year; should be arriving on the scene late. |

5 (8) |
24th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |

Not prolific for one of his ability but 6f on slow ground suits him well and he confirmed the promise of his fine run in the Ayr Bronze Cup when winning back at Ayr two weeks ago (6f, heavy); 3lb rise not excessive and he should make another bold bid. |

9st 9lb |
Reacted well to first-time cheekpieces when picking up nicely to collar a back-to-form rival (pair clear) at Haydock (5f, soft) on Thursday; 5lb penalty in a deeper race but a bigger factor could be that the ground is unlikely to be as testing this time (has won on good but seems most potent when the mud is flying). |
