19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
0-12; beaten only 2l when fifth of 11 here over 7f in a classified event in February but he's not backed that up in two starts since; well held in five starts on turf and others are preferred. |
25/1 |

7th 6 (10) |
29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
11-race maiden but he was beaten only 2l at Lingfield (1m, AW) in January and again there over 7f in February (classified events); his latest effort is worth forgiving (wide trip) but he has struggled in four starts on turf. |
16/1 |

11th 4 (10) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 5yo with a patchy record, although he was beaten only 2l when fifth in a similar race at Lingfield under Jack Dace last time; each-way shout with a repeat of that form. |

Well beaten in all nine completed starts and hard to make a case for. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Little to shout about in nine starts and the drop to this level has made no difference in his last two outings; best watched. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Poor maiden who was tried in a hood when beating only one in 9.5f classified event here in March; it's easy to look elsewhere. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Two wins as a 3yo, the latter a C&D handicap off 1lb lower last October; good runs in defeat on his last two starts (7f, soft and good to firm); should make another bold bid. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
Both wins have been over 6f, the most recent at Salisbury (good) in October off a 1lb lower mark than today's, but he went over today's trip at Goodwood (soft) last month; likely has quicker ground conditions today but has good claims. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Took a big step forward on just his second go in handicaps when runner-up at Salisbury (1m) 16 days ago, hampered last 1f and awarded race; up 2lb but he remains unexposed at this trip; player. |
7/2 |
|
1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinting pedigree but he's raced only at about 7f, keeping on at just the one pace when sixth of 12 on handicap debut at Doncaster (good to soft; first start since gelded) in July; might prefer quicker ground but he moves up to 1m with something to find. |
9/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts (7f/7.3f) and improvement is needed on handicap debut; however, he's been gelded since his last run last month which could help him tap into the considerable potential in his pedigree. |

2nd 5 (7) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
The addition of blinkers saw him spring a minor surprise at Bath (1m, firm) in April; not at that level on his last three starts, most recently when ninth behind Marsh Benham at Sandown last month. |
16/1 |
|
9th 5 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Won on reappearance at Bath (1m, firm) in April in first-time blinkers (retained); some respectable efforts since but needs something extra if he's to return to winning ways today. |
12/1 |
|
4th 4 (4) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Came good in first-time blinkers at Bath (1m, firm) in April, after a break, but managed only third in a small field there (1m2f) in May and was soundly beaten on his latest outing; needs to kick on again. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Building up a solid record for this yard, including one win on AW (this February) and two at Windsor (May and June); the latest win was in tidy style over almost this far 11 days ago and, although not well-in under his penalty, he has major claims again. |
2/1 |

1st 6 (5) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Building up a solid record for current stable and was beaten only narrowly by Mrembo over C&D (good to firm) last time when bidding for a Windsor double; major contender. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Novice winner who was close up in a C&D handicap last August off 1lb higher; major claims if able to repeat that form, which hasn't been the case in three subsequent races. |
16/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Got off the mark in 7f Salisbury novice in August but failed to beat a rival at Kempton on his final run in 2025 and went freely when beating one on his return in 1m Newmarket handicap last month; needs to become more tractable. |
10/1 |

12th 16 (8) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Off the mark at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last summer and ran well on handicap debut at Newbury (7f, good) next time; disappointing when upped to 1m at Kempton but he's certainly bred to stay; still lightly raced. |

24th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
First run for this yard and in a handicap when going down narrowly at Redcar (7f, good to soft), having stuck to his task; reportedly failed to handle the track when miserably failing favourite backers at Epsom; can be given another chance and a visor is added; all runs at 7f but should stay okay. |

31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |

First run for this yard and in a handicap when going down narrowly at Redcar (7f, good to soft), having stuck to his task; same mark here so 2lb well in. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Back to form when making all over C&D (good to firm) this month with four of today's rivals behind; similar tactics won't be so easy in this field and she is 4lb higher, but she is still lightly raced for the time of year; has won on good to soft ground; shortlisted. |
7/2 |
|
1st 3 (7) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 14y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Last year she won a Salisbury novice (7f, good to firm) and Epsom handicap (extended 1m, good to soft); yet to make a great impact this season, but it was a Class 3 last time at Ascot; on a competitive mark. |
4/1 |
|
6th 3 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Won Salisbury novice (7f, good to firm) and Epsom handicap (extended 1m, good to soft) last year; only seventh of 14 on 1m Kempton reappearance but the fact she went off 15-8 favourite suggests better was anticipated. |
10/1 |
