28th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Last win was at stiff Carlisle and he was runner-up over C&D earlier this month when prominent throughout; that was on soft ground and he's off the same mark. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 2 (9) |
2nd Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gained his first 6f success when making all in an amateur riders' event at Carlisle in June; not so good since but this return to a Class 6 will be in his favour. |
7/1 |

5th 7 (1) |
23rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Opened this year's account when making all in amateur riders' race at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) last month; creditable fourth over 6f here next time but below par back at Carlisle 19 days ago; former C&D winner but has yet to defy a mark this high. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Won twice at Hamilton in September (6f, good to soft and soft); not so good twice since and likely vulnerable at this level. |
16/1 |

8 (8) |
20th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Back to 6f when winning successive Hamilton handicaps in September (good to soft/soft) and it was a belated return to 5f when below par last time; however, this is a tougher grade than she's accustomed to. |
8/1 |
|
8th 9 (8) |
29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Benefited from the return to 6f of late, winning both starts here (good to soft and soft); flying high but has a penalty to carry in a better race back over 5f for the first time since her debut; still not ruled out. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
He has been placed in all three outings here, including when caught close home in this race last year; last success came on AW in December but he was second again over C&D (good) in June and comes here off after a good effort over 1m on AW (reapplied cheekpieces) three weeks ago; can go well providing those drawn low aren't favoured. |
5/1 |

2nd 2 (6) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed a few times over 7f this term, including at Newcastle latest start when shaping as if this return to 1m is worth a go; possibilities off last winning mark. |
4/1 |

3rd 4 (5) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
All three wins have come over 7f on Tapeta including one here; just 1lb higher than when successful at Southwell in December and very much respected back on this surface. |

16th Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Popped up over C&D (good) when beating Reginald Charles in June but after a subsequent run of placings he appears to have gone off the boil; did show a bit more on AW three weeks ago, however, and he's dipped below that winning mark; might go well at attractive odds. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |

Had a brief consistent spell that was initiated by Redcar success but his form has dipped sharply in last two starts; yet to win beyond 7f. |
12/1 |

11th 7 (15) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Three-time winner whose last success came over this C&D (good; possibly flattered by racing in a small breakaway group) in June; only 2lb higher but he stopped abruptly over a mile last time; may do better back at 7f. |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Returned to form with a win at Yarmouth (6f classified) in August but he failed to back that up at Brighton ten days later; this return to Tapeta is no problem but he's hard to predict and others are preferred. |
16/1 |

8th 3 (8) |
24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Always been best on the AW but off the mark on turf in a 0-50 classified event ten days ago; did a lot of racing over this trip in the past but does seem more effective over 6f these days and history suggests he's no good thing to back up Yarmouth. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won on turf as a 2yo for Clive Cox; dual AW winner (1m/7f) for this yard in January but poor last time when the race reportedly came too soon; has been freshened up and might bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
7th 1 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in January, when 12lb lower; followed up at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta); went close from this mark when fourth back there (8.5f) on his penultimate start; respectable second at Lingfield latest but if back in the form of that penultimate effort, he'd have strong claims. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two Tapeta wins in January, over 1m and 7f, and better form when a close fourth (off this mark) at Wolverhampton 11 days ago (8.6f); the second and third there have both won since and he is a solid contender back down into a Class 6. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |

Two wins in Germany; sixth is the best he's managed in seven starts since coming to Britain but he did catch the eye a bit on his penultimate outing and is worth a betting check back from a three-month break. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in January but he's been well below that form in four runs this summer and slow starts have been an issue; now 4lb lower than for his last success but he needs a transformation back on Polytrack. |
