16th 5 (16) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two wins (one on turf at Doncaster) and a second from his four starts for new stable last season, all in 7f handicaps; failed to settle last time, yet still challenged strongly in the final 1f and left the impression he remains capable of better. |
12/1 |

2nd 6 (5) |
9th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Record of 2-3 this season for new stable, the latest performance over C&D (won going away) back on AW; may have even more to offer for Mick Appleby; respected. |

11th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a Lingfield maiden (7f, Polytrack) for Kevin Philippart De Foy early last year and defied an eight-month absence to make a successful stable debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in June; didn't back it up at Haydock (7f, good; took a keen hold) last month and needs to bounce back. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Started favourite on his first nine starts last year, winning two of them, both off lower marks; hit traffic over an inadequate 5f on his comeback a few weeks ago, which will ensure he's popular once again for a yard also responsible for Cairdeas. |
4/1 |

3rd 2 (6) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

All best form at 6f on good or quicker ground; easily excused a modest farewell to 2025 on account of soft going but he does have something to prove in his first-ever 5f run. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |

Generally very consistent over 7f last season but disappointed over that trip on recent seasonal debut and may find 6f here a bit sharp. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Scored over C&D last July and in good form after until finishing only eighth in 7f Redcar handicap on his final run; this reliable sort can't be discounted despite a six-month absence. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Beaten favourite in similar event over C&D last time and is still on career-high mark but remains in a very consistent vein of form that now reads 23313323 since April; solid. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
His two wins for Ross Burdon have come at a lower level; disappointed at Kempton when last seen and although he is relatively unexposed at 6f, he will need a clear personal best to take this after 108 days off. |
12/1 |

9th 5 (8) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Had excuses when well held over a mile here in October but otherwise on the up for his new stable, winning 6f handicaps at Chepstow and Chelmsford; that latest success was a decisive one and he looks a strong contender despite his 5lb penalty. |

18th May 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Gained last year's two wins over 7f on good ground in August and came second in a 15-runner race next time; made a respectable return to action one month ago and enters each-way calculations. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (1) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Gained last year's two wins in August but has recorded his other two successes (2023/2024) in the month of April; drawn against the inner rail and could be a danger, provided he's in top form on seasonal debut; market support would heighten interest. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won on turf as a 2yo for Clive Cox; dual AW winner (1m/7f) for this yard in January but poor last time when the race reportedly came too soon; has been freshened up and might bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
7th 1 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in January, when 12lb lower; followed up at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta); went close from this mark when fourth back there (8.5f) on his penultimate start; respectable second at Lingfield latest but if back in the form of that penultimate effort, he'd have strong claims. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two Tapeta wins in January, over 1m and 7f, and better form when a close fourth (off this mark) at Wolverhampton 11 days ago (8.6f); the second and third there have both won since and he is a solid contender back down into a Class 6. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

Blows hot and cold and she's struggled on Tapeta this spring in her three runs after a break; plenty to prove and probably more potent at 1m these days. |
33/1 |
|
12th 14 (12) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Blows hot and cold, and has been on the chilly side in her two runs back from a break; it's no certainty that the drop back from 1m will help and she holds only outside claims. |

10th 9 (11) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dual AW winner who is 0-13 on turf, but she returned from a break with a near-miss at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; only 1lb higher here and is a big player if she can back that up. |
9/1 |

2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

25th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in April and fared okay back over 6f there (fourth) next time; however, he has scarcely managed to beat a rival in his last three appearances (5f-7f) which suggests that he'll find life tough, particularly from this wide draw. |

9st 2lb |
Running well for Iain Jardine since February, including wins at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March and Hamilton (5f, good) last week; unpenalised for that latest success, so 3lb well in, as he was when creditable third at Ayr (favourite) yesterday; should go well again if that hasn't taken it out of him. |

3rd 3 (5) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Showed a likeable attitude to get off the mark on turf at the 18th attempt at Hamilton (5f, good; Wee Mary fourth) on Friday evening; escapes a penalty for that and Mohammed Tabti is able to claim his 5lb allowance here; equally effective at 6f-7f; obvious chance. |
11/4 |

1st 7 (2) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Versatile sort whose form since March comprises a win over 6f on AW and creditable third-place finishes over 5f/7f, latest at Musselburgh returned to turf; 0-17 in this sphere, however. |
