1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has a better strike-rate on the AW (4-26) than on turf (3-39); 4lb below his last winning mark, but has to put a modest effort at Ayr (5f, good to firm) last month behind him. |

10st 0lb |
Now 3lb lower than when winning on AW at Newcastle (5f) in January; fair form on turf last twice, latest when 2l fourth at Thirsk (5f, good); has won on fast ground; each-way chance. |

31st Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Best form when coming from off the pace, as when a wide-margin winner at Redcar (5f, good) last month; has possibly found slower surfaces against her since (reared start latest) and considered in a race that's likely to be run to suit. |

9st 3lb |
Left Ollie Sangster for 7,000gns and as a 12-race maiden; however, she was runner-up four times and this trip on slow ground is suitable; could go well. |

0-11 but she's had plenty of close calls including at Doncaster (5f, good) on her penultimate run; looks interesting if she can recapture that form and she seems fairly versatile ground-wise. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Five wins on turf; came up well short last time when bidding for a Chepstow double; far from solid on his AW form and has something to prove back in this sphere. |
5/1 |
|
7th 5 (4) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Popped up from nowhere when winning in a first-time tongue-tie over C&D (soft) nine days ago; well drawn as it turned out that day and recent history suggests he's no certainty to repeat the effort, back up 4lb and into a better race. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
On a long losing run and he went too freely in first-time cheekpieces for his new yard when a below-par fourth of eight in 5f Lingfield handicap 18 days ago; tongue tied now with more required. |

21st May 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual course winner (6f/7f) and 3lb lower than when successful at Wolverhampton (6f, Tapeta) last September, but he can't be entertained on his performances in the meantime. |
25/1 |

18th 13 (1) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

The winner of 13 races, but just three of them have been on turf; yet to shine this year and he was behind a few of today's rivals over C&D last week. |
20/1 |

12th 14 (12) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Winner of 13 races and just 1lb higher than for the latest, but quiet in two starts at Southwell (6f, AW) since returning in February; needs to step up. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Without a win since his 2yo days; he has run some sound races in Class 6 handicaps this year but needs to pull out more for the win; stable also runs Keep The Gold. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Some creditable efforts season including when fourth of ten over C&D (good) on his penultimate run; that form puts him in the picture but overall record is now 2-31 and his last win was in 2023. |
7/1 |
|
4th 7 (1) |
5th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

It's now 21 starts since his last success but he comes here in good form, fourth of ten in 5f Thirsk handicap 19 days ago; well in the mix. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
All ground seems to come alike to him and he gained his second C&D success (good to firm) last month, but a 4lb rise appeared to anchor him in his two outings since; may need the returning visor to perk him up a bit. |
5/1 |
|
7th 6 (9) |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer who was well held at Chepstow last time, but that was a Class 4 event and he won that track (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; remains well treated on his old form and has claims if he can bounce back on this drop back in grade; acts on fast and soft ground. |
5/1 |
|
6th 6 (3) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Exposed but very consistent and deserved to snap a losing streak over C&D recently when racing prominently and keeping on; back up 4lb. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Started his campaign with two wins in April, but he's been up and down since and was beaten 9l behind Our Absent Friends at Catterick last time; needs to bounce back again after that and others are more solid. |
14/1 |

6th 5 (7) |
17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Started his campaign with two wins in April and there have been plenty of solid runs since; should remain competitive but minor money perhaps his best hope. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won this last year and kicked off this campaign with two wins in a row, the second of them over C&D; he's run well in defeat over C&D on his last two starts and there's every chance he'll again be bang there. |
11/2 |
