18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Best known as a 5f performer but has won over 6f; always behind on last month's reappearance outing and finished last of six after racing too freely in refitted cheekpieces a fortnight later (also 5f); on good mark but needs to get his season up and running. |

21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off six months and went without his usual cheekpieces when 11th over C&D two weeks ago; he scored twice at Ripon (5f) last May so no surprise to see him take a step forward here in refitted headgear. |
14/1 |

11th 2 (10) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Came to hand early last year and he returns from a 168-day break off a mark just 1lb higher than for his Ripon win 11 months ago; the absence of cheekpieces tempers enthusiasm this time. |

25th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
String of good runs in 2025, winning three times with the last of them coming in the Ayr Bronze Cup 248 days ago (6f, soft); 4lb higher mark to contend with and may come on for this return to action. |

19th Sep 2025 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb
|
Progressive since these cheekpieces went on, winning at Doncaster (5.5f, good) and Epsom (6f, good) and finishing a close third of 16 to Eternal Sunshine at Thirsk (6f, good) recently despite having to wait for a clear run; he's right at home on slow ground and could play a leading role. |
15/2 |
|
10 (11) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Thriving on racing this year, following a second of 22 at York by winning in clearcut style at Epsom (6f, good) three weeks later; a further 6lb rise demands another career best but that's not out of the question. |

29th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Four C&D wins but the latest was back in 2024 and he's struggled a bit here off this sort of mark in recent attempts; has been running well on turf of late, though, and he shouldn't be that far away. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Made all to win a Class 6 handicap over C&D last month; not so good on his next two starts but returned to his recent best when a close second at Beverley ten days ago; runs off the same mark today and he's ideally drawn to attack; should go well. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 5 (3) |
12th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Scored over C&D (off 1lb higher) last summer and at Pontefract this spring but has proved inconsistent otherwise during that period; no banker to give his running. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |

In good form on turf in the spring but 0-12 and hasn't matched that in five starts since, including when never travelling back on AW latest. |

4 (1) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
In good form on turf in the spring but he's 0-11 and hasn't matched that in four starts since, latterly in cheekpieces when well held at Beverley last time; handicapper's relenting, though. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
AW winner for current stable but her form has dipped in two starts since returned to turf, despite being previously effective in this sphere; bit to prove at present. |
14/1 |
|
9th 8 (9) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Shot back up the weights after an easy win at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in November; latest Bath run was after a 12-week absence and she may fare better today with her rider's 7lb claim useful. |
12/1 |
|
7th 3 (7) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Shot back up the weights after an easy win at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in November; had comparable form over 6f on turf last season and finished on heels of the leaders in 1m2f AW race in January on latest start, but others may well be a bit better handicapped. |

10th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won first two starts last summer (6f) but, although not added to tally since, shaped with more encouragement over 5f at Redcar last time; down a further 2lb and should be suited by the extra yardage; interesting. |
10/1 |
|
7 (5) |
21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
A dual 6f juvenile scorer but her more recent form is much less encouraging, tried visored when last of seven at Ripon (6f) 34 days ago; others are preferred. |

Conditions to suit and he won a C&D handicap off this mark in December; added a Nottingham success to his tally in August and latest Pontefract defeat doesn't take much excusing; high on the list. |

22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner who also finished third in this last year; has been in good nick since the visor went on, winning a classified at Southwell and Newcastle (February/March) and placed in three handicaps (also 5f, AW) subsequently; can take a grip so today's likely good pace will suit and he gets on well with Conor Whiteley; player. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
15th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won classified events over C&D in February and at Newcastle in March; placed in handicap company on both starts since, latest when a close third of 13 here 13 days; good claims once again. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 (2) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won classified events over C&D and at Newcastle (penalised) before being brushed aside by Little Mi Mi at Newcastle three weeks ago; a 5lb turnaround in the weights should see things finish closer today. |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Veteran with 14 wins on his CV; kept on for third when dropped back to 5f at Newcastle 12 days ago but is inconsistent nowadays and younger rivals appeal more. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 8 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Veteran who never featured in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton nine days ago; drops back to 5f with a point to prove. |

8th 6 (1) |
4th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |

Slow-starting veteran who is having his 100th outing this evening; he has won 14 times already and his latest Newcastle fourth was a solid effort; should go well again. |
10/1 |
