17th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
4-27 at Hamilton, which has dominated his itinerary but he also has two wins elsewhere; made a respectable return to Flat over C&D two weeks ago under Lexie Clarkson and could build on that to get seriously involved. |
16/1 |

3rd May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Four-time course winner, most recently over today's trip (good to soft) in September; ended 2025 with two below-par hurdle runs, though, and would appeal more on ground slower than good. |

9st 8lb |
Standout run came when 1l second of ten in handicap at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) in July; ran poorly on faster ground when favourite over same C&D next time; needs to bounce back. |
11/2 |

5th 5 (4) |
20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Advanced his form on his handicap debut when second of ten over C&D last month; that form has proved solid so this lightly-raced sort is a player nudged up 1lb. |
2/1 |

4th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |

Has progressed with each run and beaten 1l by Jaminoz when runner-up over C&D (good to soft) last month on handicap debut; could well reverse placings if he continues to improve; claims. |

9st 2lb |
Won over 2m at Ffos Las for Jedd O'Keeffe last August (good to soft; awarded race by the stewards) and some fair efforts after that; not done as well since (tailed off over hurdles last time) and has been well beaten all three AW runs; back after wind surgery. |

27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |

Class 6 Flat handicap winner (2m, good to soft) who ran okay when third on his hurdle/stable debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month; improvement needed but he's in good hands to progress; not discounted. |

10st 0lb |
Has form figures of 513143222 for her current yard and she hit a personal best when going close at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) last month; only 1lb higher here and she's a big player again back on Tapeta. |
3/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
6yo who's never been better, with two ready 1m4f wins for new yard this year and good efforts to be placed on last two outings; has had just one race on soft (none on heavy) but won it, in 2023; needs a second look. |
6/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Ready 1m4f wins at Southwell and Ffos Las for new yard this year and her C&D third on latest outing was another good effort; in the mix. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Well held after racing too freely at Haydock (11.6f) recently and now 0-20 but ran quite well when fourth under Lauren Frost on last month's stable debut at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm), and his jockey (three wins from 35 rides under rules) is by far the most experienced in this race. |
8/1 |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
19-race maiden, 15 of those for Brian Ellison; made a respectable start for new yard four weeks ago but he's 3lb out of the handicap today and needs much more like his best form of previous campaigns. |
25/1 |
|
4th 9 (8) |
6th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
18-race maiden, the last 15 of these for Brian Ellison; sold 16 days ago for £3,500; with this season's form not as good as last term's, it looks like he's best watched. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Record of 41333 since switched to AW, the win in a Southwell classified over 1m3f in January; respectable third on turf at Thirsk (1m4f, good to firm) in August, however, and he won't lack for fitness back on grass. |
7/2 |

3rd 6 (6) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Record of 4133 since switched to AW, the highlight an account-opening success over C&D (classified event); may have more to offer back in this scenario and remains of interest at a modest level. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 5 (12) |
15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Looked a hard ride but eventually wore down Hijo De La Luna in a 1m3f classified race at Southwell last month, coming home 2l to the good; beaten at short odds at Wolverhampton ten days later (1m4f) but still ran okay (easy winner has since followed up); now has cheekpieces fitted for the first time. |

4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
He will have something to prove if slow ground prevails and he was tailed off on his recent reappearance over 2m at Musselburgh; however, that was his first run beyond 1m3f and he went close over that trip at Carlisle last August, when 2lb higher; might not be a forlorn hope back down in trip. |
10/1 |
|
5th 5 (7) |
21st May 2026 Good 1m 7f 217y Class 6 |
10st 4lb |
Had a near miss at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last August and not beaten far into fourth at Newcastle nine days later; not so good twice after and he has his stamina to prove now returning from 237 days off. |
10/1 |
|
7th 7 (7) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
0-15 but he had a near-miss at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) last month before a close fourth over C&D when not a lot went right; looks interesting on that form and he had an excuse on slow ground at Hamilton last time; not ruled out back on AW. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed maiden who's had plenty of chances in handicaps and goes in a first-time tongue-tie/first-time cheekpieces off the back of a poor effort last time (maybe didn't stay a stiff 1m3f); has to bounce back. |
7/1 |
|
8th 4 (4) |
10th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
3yo who kept on for fair third at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in May on second handicap start; backward step at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm) ten days later but in a slowly run race; based on his penultimate run he could be suited by this stiff 1m3f; brother Candonomore is a soft-ground winner. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 3 (4) |
23rd May 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Five-race maiden who shaped with some promise when sticking on for third at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm; Arundel second) ten days ago; didn't see daylight over 2f out that day and has the size and scope to do a good deal better; interesting. |

10th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
3yo who showed improved form when creditable third on her stable and seasonal debut at Wolverhampton last month (9.4f, AW; second handicap start); of interest on that performance but she was tailed off at Southwell (1m4f, AW) since and has to bounce back in first-time blinkers. |
10/1 |

17th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Out of the frame in four starts over 6f/7f on turf for Darryll Holland last summer, but having been off for 292 days she showed much more when third of eight on stable/AW debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) a fortnight ago; 1lb lower and makes the shortlist. |
5/1 |

3rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Out of the frame in four starts over 7f on turf for Darryll Holland last summer; up in trip for her stable/AW debut after 292 days off and this looks a tough ask. |
