20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Usually apprentice ridden but Jude Fernandes rides him for the first time; 6lb lower than when winning at Sandown (1m6f, good to firm) last June; he has not beaten many in his four starts this season, coming last in a four-runner race last time, but can't be dismissed and the hood he often wore last term (and first run this year) is reinstated. |

4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Made good strides last season and scored twice at up to 2m, latterly at this track (good to firm); shaped encouragingly on 2026 return (1m2f); failed to build on that at Windsor (11.4f) nearly ten weeks later but takes another step back up in trip today; well handicapped if he returns to his best. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Brother to the top-class Cracksman; made good strides for Dylan Cunha last season (scored twice at up to 2m) and he shaped encouragingly over an inadequate 1m2f when fourth of eight in handicap at Pontefract in April; appeals as the sort to do well in 2026 and interesting now back up in trip. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Did well last season, including a win over 1m4f in April but he was best later on at about 2m (including at York); reappearance this term was pretty encouraging, considering it was over just 1m2f, and he looks a serious each-way contender. |

15th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 209y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Four-time winner on the Flat for Richard Hughes and it's been a promising start over hurdles, winning a Southwell maiden last time without too much fuss (good); penalised accordingly but sets the standard. |

1st Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Fairly useful four-time AW Flat winner in these silks for Richard Hughes and promising second of ten on his Warwick hurdle debut (2m, good to soft) for Olly Murphy 24 days ago; entitled to improve and the one to beat. |

Four-time AW winner at up to 2m on Flat for Richard Hughes, reaching an RPR of 85 (has shown a similar level of form on turf); remains with same owner; has the potential to become a fairly useful hurdler. |

22nd Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Hurdles debutante whose Flat efforts for new yard leave a doubt over her current form; previously a fairly useful sort (peak RPR 87) so brings potential provided a resurgent display materialises. |

20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Won on AW and turf for Hughie Morrison at up to this trip; not that competitive in two runs for current yard and all headgear is now removed; bit risky. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
2-13 overall and 1-8 in handicaps, the handicap win in a four-runner race (1m2f) last November; probably stays 1m6f but did not show it on latest outing; 5lb lower today than at start of this season but the first-time tongue-tie seemingly needs to make a difference. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Quite lightly raced since 2023 (when a fairly useful 1m6f scorer) but he took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 11 in 1m4f Southwell handicap two weeks ago, doing best of those coming off a steady pace; very much one to consider off a 2lb lower mark. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |

Has been a useful handicapper in his time but he was pulled up lame at Newbury in August and then tailed off over 2m here last month; tumbling down the weights but comes with risk attached. |

Won over C&D in October 2024 off 9lb higher; however, he's run just five times since and has been disappointing in the main, particularly on both starts this season. |

11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |

Five-timer for the Charlton stable between September 2023 and July 2024 included a win over C&D, but he was beaten out of sight on his stable debut/reappearance at Kempton 15 days ago; has plenty to prove now. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won his first five handicaps (including on Tapeta, unproven on Polytrack) but the last of those was in July 2024; generally disappointing since and, after 307 days off, this is a new trip on first run since changing hands and leaving Harry Charlton. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
His last win was two years ago but he's on a dangerous mark and was a good second in amateur jockeys' handicap at Haydock (1m6f, good) 17 days ago; should be fine on this drop back in trip and has claims if he can build on that last run. |
4/1 |

8th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
His mark continues to fall and he didn't run badly at Windsor (1m2f) in May when back from an absence; however, he's failed to threaten on his three starts since (1m2f-1m6f) and needs to turn things around. |
14/1 |

5th 4 (1) |
24th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
All five wins from 1m4f to 1m6f; outpaced when fourth of six on reappearance at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) in May and he couldn't get in a blow over 1m4f last time; will likely need a pace meltdown; first ride under rules for James Hills. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 208y Class 5 |

Better expected last time, after two poor efforts and back to the visor from cheekpieces, but ran below market expectations in finishing behind Merrijig; 2lb better off today but has work to do if he's to turn things round. |

4th 5 (4) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
C&D win last August came off an 8lb higher mark; the booking of Billy Loughnane will draw some in, back to the visor worn for his two AW victories, but two poor efforts on turf lately will need overlooking. |

10th 4 (5) |
8th Jun 2026 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Two 2m wins last year on good and faster ground; a return to hurdling stalled his progress and hasn't been at his best back on the Flat in his last two races, though 1m4f was on the short side after a break at Newbury; could stage a revival. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Former smart Flat horse who is 0-6 over hurdles and was beaten a little under 10l on handicap debut here a month ago; he was boxing on over 2m and this longer trip could bring him on (stayed well on the Flat). |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 47y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Useful on the Flat in his prime but well held when fifth on handicap hurdle debut at Kelso (2m2f, good; first-time tongue-tie) in April and showed no significant improvement in a subsequent C&D maiden; needs to up his game. |
20/1 |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Useful on the Flat in his prime but has yet to better fair form over hurdles, weakening into a well-held fifth on 2m2f Kelso handicap debut in this sphere 24 days ago; might have needed that after a break but he's still hard to make a good case for. |
