5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Unseated rider at the start last week and had contrasting fortunes in handicaps previously, runner-up to unpenalised winner at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) in May but soundly beaten either side, at 1m2f and 1m4f; still not ruled out in an ordinary race. |

27th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Unexposed 4yo who has been placed in four of his six runs but he was tailed off in a 1m4f handicap here (good) three weeks ago; has something to prove after that major blip and he needs to bounce back. |

Has finished placed in four of his five starts including when runner-up in a Haydock handicap (1m2f, good to firm) two weeks ago; still unexposed but he's not really progressed so far and needs to find something extra at this new trip. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Successful handicap debut on AW (1m3f) in October but progress stalled; useful turf effort when dividing subsequent winners at Windsor (about 1m3f, good to firm) in May but 1m4f has stretched her since; the return to 1m2f makes her more interesting again. |

15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won handicap debut at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in October; clearly best result since when bustling up an odds-on 3yo in four-runner race at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) on penultimate start but probably needs better than that. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Fair qualifying form at up to about 1m, and when third of 13 over 1m4f on the AW in October, but soundly beaten otherwise and although likely to come on for her Windsor comeback in May (well behind Shady Bay) she was beaten too far to fancy today. |

27th May 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Not yet looked ahead of her mark on turf and AW but she wasn't far away when third of 12 finishers at Kempton (1m4f) in October; found wanting at Southwell later that month but still time for her to move forward. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Best effort so far when making the running and eventually third of ten to an emphatic winner at Pontefract (1m2f, good) on handicap debut in June; way back at Hamilton since and now tongue tied; missed a race in May due to good to firm ground. |
4/1 |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Was having just his second start for his new yard when third of ten on last week's handicap debut at Pontefract (1m2f, good); can progress further but his stamina has to be taken on trust. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |

Not particularly solid on his maiden form but may improve now handicapping over a new trip on second start for new stable (formerly trained in Ireland); market support should be noted. |

9st 6lb |
Two wins this year include one over 1m2f at Leicester (good to firm) in May when perhaps in front soon enough and idling; he kept chasing when a close second of three at Pontefract recently to one on a hat-trick; much less to prove than most. |

22nd Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |

1m4f AW win in January and he was back on the scoresheet when scrambling home at Leicester four weeks ago (1m2f, good to firm); 3lb rise demands another step forward. |

26th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Signs of ability in three 3yo starts; minor handicap form since, on good to soft when reappearing and no more than a glimmer of promise on Kempton AW (1m3f) in June; a step forward isn't ruled out. |
12/1 |

11th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Shaped with promise on debut at Lingfield (1m, AW) but has failed to build on that since and was beaten 22l on handicap/seasonal debut at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) 12 days ago having gone off too hard; returns to AW (out of a 1m4f AW winner) and will need to race more efficiently. |
14/1 |

30th May 2025 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Mixed form last autumn across his first three starts (1m-10.3f); gelded subsequently and withdrawn from last Saturday's comeback at Beverley having bolted before the start (11-1 at the time); this lightly raced 4yo is bred to win races and is not discounted on handicap debut. |

5th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Two wins in 2023, over 7f (AW) and 6f (good to firm); rarely races beyond 1m but he did finish a creditable second of 13 over 1m2f at Bath (heavy) in October, only to end the season on a disappointing note; on a reduced mark now but this year's runs haven't convinced. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Ended last season with a disappointing run and made a low-key reappearance three weeks ago; on a good mark now but arrives here with a bit to prove. |

27th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Winless since 2023 and he proved hard to catch right last term; still can't be discounted, though, if returning with his A-game off a reduced mark. |
