3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Made a winning debut at Salisbury (7f, good to firm; hooded) last July and was placed in novice company on his next two starts; however, he failed to beat a rival home on his handicap debut in September and pulled to hard on his reappearance (first start since gelding) in May; hood returns and drops back in trip. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Made a winning debut at this track (7f, good to firm) last July and wasn't beaten far subsequently in a couple of similar races, and on his handicap/AW debut; has been gelded since and still unexposed and may have more to offer. |

9th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up in four of his five starts, including over C&D (good to soft) on his debut in June; the return to this trip should suit and he ought to be right there again. |
13/8 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Second over about 7f on first three starts, from the front on last two occasions, before a lesser show over 8.6f on AW/handicap debut; tries 6f for first time and he's one to take seriously if his 7f form is reproduced. |
13/8 |

8th 4 (9) |
31st Jul 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
He has finished second in all three runs in novice/maiden company at up to 7.4f; feasible mark for his handicap debut but he's not guaranteed to benefit from the additional yardage. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Slightly disappointing when only fifth at Windsor (1m, good) last month, his second start, but the form of his keeping-on fourth at Newbury (7f, good) in May reads very well, and he's a major player here if judged on that performance. |
9/4 |

5th 8 (8) |
9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
90,000euros son of Dark Angel; 22-1, outpaced over 2f out in novice at Newbury (7f, good) last month but rallied into fourth of 11, so it was fair form and an encouraging start; each-way player. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Gained a second 1m win here in May but only eighth of 11 in 1m Newmarket handicap 18 days ago; goes well round here but has his stamina to prove on his first try beyond 1m. |
9/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Majority of starts on AW and he scored on that surface at Kempton (1m) off 4lb lower in May; things didn't pan out ideally when good fourth of 14 over that C&D three weeks later and he brings some momentum to this switch back to turf. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 (11) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Managed third in a C&D 0-80 last month and duly did the business in 0-75 company, also over track and trip, 23 days ago; this is even easier, although he's up 4lb, and Jack Dace can keep the ride in this apprentice contest; headgear (hood) goes on, presumably in attempt to settle him. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Unexposed 3yo; won a 7f fillies' maiden at the Rowley course in April and she wasn't beaten far at Leicester on last month's handicap debut (6f, good); cheekpieces now added. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
23rd Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made it second-time lucky when justifying favouritism in small-field novice at Newmarket (7f, good) in April; disappointing under a penalty at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago but she took a strong hold and didn't get home; needs to kick on again now switched to a handicap but this drop in trip could suit and she's bred to be better than this opening mark. |
100/30 |
|
5th 2 (4) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Well-bred filly who left her low-key 2yo debut a long way behind when narrow winner of five-runner Newmarket maiden (7f, good) in April; not seen again since but probably still has more improvement to come; leading contender. |

10st 9lb |
Showed no significant promise in two Flat novice races (7f/1m) last summer; 300-1 when unruly at the start on his intended hurdle debut at Exeter last Tuesday. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |

Moderate form in seven unplaced starts and comfortably held at this level latest (1m2f, Polytrack); more needed. |

7th 8 (4) |
21st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Remains low mileage but he's yet to offer much, hood back on when seventh in 1m2f Chelmsford handicap 13 days ago; needs to take a big step forward. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Safely held on bumper debut in April and in two Flat maidens for new stable last month (7.6f/11.6f); can't be recommended here. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
He's gone backwards since his fair debut effort; shorter in the betting than may have been anticipated ahead of his reappearance last month but still finished well beaten. |
25/1 |
|
7th 7 (5) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Achieved little in a handful of starts last year (5f-7f) and is hard to fancy returning from a lengthy absence. |
12/1 |
|
7 (7) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Unexposed after only four runs but struggled when 100-1 for last month's handicap debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and it takes a big leap of faith to support him in first-time blinkers. |
25/1 |
