26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Five wins at 1m, the latest two coming at this track in 2024; didn't run badly on his seasonal return here a fortnight ago (1m, firm); capable off this mark but the start is always a major concern where he is concerned. |

All five wins have been over 1m, twice here; has been running well over further since his last win but slow starts have become a habit. |

Won at Ffos Las (1m2f, good to soft) and Sandown (1m2f, good) last summer, but he wasn't able to build on those victories in three subsequent starts; absent since October but has place claims on this reappearance. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Prolific at Ffos Las in the mud but just 1-40 away from that track; easy enough to look elsewhere now returning from an absence and from a wide stall. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
The last six of his seven wins have been at Ffos Las and four of the last five were on heavy going, including two over 1m2f last month; latest win was under Jessica Llewellyn and by 16l, but an 11lb higher mark has now kicked in; that, and the way he's drawn a blank at other tracks and over 1m3f/1m4f, pours some cold water on his chance. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Five-time winner over C&D and 2lb lower than for the latest; never figured on last month's stable debut at Leicester after 217 days off, but she may have needed it and no great surprise if she ran well. |
14/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent mare who signed off for Mark Loughnane with a solid third in 9.4f Wolverhampton handicap in October; has gone well fresh so not out of things for her new yard. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (11) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Five-time C&D with 38 of his 47 AW starts having been here; 1lb below his last winning mark and capable if getting a good pace to aim at, but she doesn't have the best of draws and may just need this after three months off. |

11th May 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
1m2f winner; positives to take from three of his four runs over hurdles, last time chasing home an odds-on Olly Murphy runner; thereabouts. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 2 |
13th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Won on the AW last summer (1m2f) and launched hurdling career with two encouraging fourths, latterly when just over 2l behind Jamada in 18-runner Lingfield maiden (2m, soft) in January; safely held on subsequent handicap debut but still considered here, with the switch to better ground a possible source of improvement. |

28th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Three hurdle wins this season, most recently when given a nicely judged Joe Anderson ride from off the pace over C&D (good) 12 days ago; 4lb rise is not excessive but the ground may have turn against him now. |

11th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Encouraging seasonal/handicap debut when fourth at Windsor (good) in June but disappointed at Ffos Las (also 1m2f, good to soft) three weeks later; subsequently given ten weeks to reset and an improved show would not surprise for respected yard. |
10/1 |

30th Jun 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Unexposed filly who kept on for fourth on seasonal/handicap debut at Windsor (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; probably still has potential; needs to be taken very seriously. |

4th 8 (11) |
9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Well beaten all three starts as 2yo, albeit with fourth of seven to a runaway winner at Goodwood (1m1f, heavy) on final occasion appearing to be much improved form; sister to 1m2f-1m6f Saratoga Gold (useful at his best over 1m4f) which prompts some extra interest on this handicap/seasonal debut. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Has the odd bit of Flat form but essentially disappointing and he has accomplished little over hurdles the last twice; remains a maiden. |

9th Sep 2025 Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Sole Flat placing came in a 1m3f Class 6 handicap at Windsor in May; now 0-10 in that scene after three modest efforts since June; best watched on hurdling debut. |
40/1 |

28th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Raised his game with a creditable third here (11.4f, good) in May but he's struggled in both runs since and is now 0-9; others preferred. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Triple AW winner at up to 13.5f, including easily over C&D against her own sex latest; a 5lb penalty may not prevent her from following up, provided that career-best form is repeated. |
11/4 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
23rd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins since returned to AW in September and she's finished runner-up in her last four starts; didn't get much luck when a close second at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) two weeks ago and she's a key player off only 1lb higher here. |
9/4 |

1 (3) |
4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 6 |
10st 1lb |
Nosed ahead close home at Chelmsford (1m5f) five days ago, taking record since racing in AW handicaps to 12331; incurs a penalty but Joe Bradnam takes off 7lb; gives impression she'll stay this new trip; solid. |
