22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who has gained both wins (7f/1m) on good to firm; grabbed third place on line over 6f for an encouraging reappearance effort and looks interesting back up in distance, with further improvement still a possibility. |
7/1 |

3rd 8 (2) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Winless for previous yard but he won his first two turf starts for this one in 2025, over 1m at Windsor and 7f at Newbury (both on good to firm); it's possible that good to soft ground proved his undoing when last seen in August but a layoff since raises questions as does the return to 6f. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Won a novice at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last October on final start for Kevin Philippart De Foy; ran well when third at Kempton (1m, AW) last month but she was beaten 8l at Yarmouth (1m, good) 17 days ago; needs to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces. |

1st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Placed on all four handicap starts last year (7f/6f, good to firm/good), on the final occasion keeping on for 1l third here when the drop back to 6f looked against him; returned with solid third at Kempton (7f, AW) in March; major player for trainer who has won two of the last four runnings. |

Began his career on dirt in the UAE but he showed better form on turf for Andrew Balding in the second half of 2025, winning a 6f maiden at Newbury before placed efforts in handicaps at Newbury (7f) and Newmarket (6f); returns to action with his stable in fine form; contender. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice for Harry Charlton, both over 6f on Lingfield's AW track; didn't get the chance to show what he could do (repeatedly denied a clear run) when eighth of 12 on recent Chester return for new yard; left the impression he'd have been involved in the finish with more luck and enters calculations. |
10/1 |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice for Harry Charlton, both over 6f on Lingfield's AW track; has shown promise on turf; sold for 40,000gns in October; double-figure draw and revised mark both ask stiffer questions of him but interesting that Oisin Murphy, who rode him to success when last seen, is back in the saddle. |

C&D maiden win in January; yet to win a handicap but he has run several good races in defeat, including over 6f on AW the last twice; cheekpieces worn for those latest efforts are now dispensed with; should go well again. |

Notched his first win for this trainer at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in December and again ran well there when third having been drawn wide 39 days ago; another wide draw to contend with here but he holds solid claims. |

27th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
On a 16-race losing run but down the weights as a result and he was on the heels of the winner when third of 12 at Thirsk (7f) 11 days ago; having his first race here; thereabouts if he takes to it. |
9/2 |

3rd 14 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 8lb |
On a 15-race losing run but he's well handicapped as a result and his stable is in fine form; almost certainly needed the run when seventh of 13 over C&D four weeks ago, fading; likely to build on that and more persuasive than most. |
12/1 |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Ex William Haggas; no win since his juvenile days, but has twice ran well over this C&D, including when fourth (from 4lb higher) last August; no match for stablemate Novello Lad at Doncaster (6f, good to soft; 25-1) recently but that comeback run ought to have him spot on for this. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 12 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Regressed for William Haggas before sold last summer; the handicapper is easing off so he should be easy enough to place in due course but he's done a lot of his racing over 7f and now returns from an absence; Novello Lad looks his trainer's best shout. |
16/1 |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

14/1 |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won off 3lb lower at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in February; good second over 6f at Newcastle next time but his form has cooled in last two starts; bit to prove again and he needs to bounce back near best. |
12/1 |
|
8 (3) |
2nd Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
All three wins have been at 7f but he was a good second over this trip at Newcastle on AW finals day; didn't pack the same punch when fifth at Ascot (7f, good to firm) last time but he's still unexposed as a sprinter and is not ruled out back in trip. |

Winner of a 6f turf maiden and a 7f handicap as a 2yo for Warren Greatrex in 2024; didn't progress in his 2025 and having been bought for 4,000gns in October ran okay for a long way on yard debut here over a mile last month; drop in trip to suit and place claims. |

Both wins over 6f on the AW but he confirmed he stays this far at Doncaster (good) in June, when chasing home one who is going the right way; looks likely to have more to offer. |

6th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |

Dual 6f AW winner this year, latterly in valuable Lingfield handicap in April; didn't run badly when back on turf at Ascot last month (race won by Up The Pace) but needs to find something extra on this return to 7f. |

9st 9lb |
Placed on three of five starts this year; wide draw no help at Chester two weeks ago when he had his first crack at 1m4f (tailed off); reverts to 1m2f and probably okay on the ground, so he's considered each-way. |

15th 16 (16) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Placed on three of his four starts this year, most recently when keeping on well for third on last month's turf return at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm); will presumably be dropped in again from his wide draw today; might need some luck but looks well worth a crack at 1m4f. |
8/1 |

3rd 6 (8) |
20th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |

Sole success came when landing a Ffos Las maiden over 7.5f on heavy for Ed Walker in August 2024; has run well on his last three starts on AW (beaten a neck last time) and if he can reproduce that form on turf then he holds claims. |
