17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Not entirely straightforward but a sharp improver over hurdles, making it 6-9 when disposing of two rivals at Sedgefield (2m1f, good); 4lb higher now; clearly a contender. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Last of three on the Flat last time but had been a sharp improver over hurdles, making it 5-8 when completing a hat-trick at Perth (2m, good); just 2lb higher now and has major claims. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 109y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Big improver over hurdles and he made it 5-8 in that sphere when completing a hat-trick at Perth (2m, good) two weeks ago; looks interesting off dangerous mark on the Flat and he won over 1m7f in France as a 3yo. |

17th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
A five-time winner who was placed over C&D in June but he was beaten 7l that day and hasn't been overly threatening in the meantime. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Second to Golden Flame over C&D (good) before doing some hanging on fast ground at Nottingham; any rain would aid his chance. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 208y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Adaptable regarding ground and tactics; this looks less competitive than the Ffos Las 0-65 in which he finished second last time (hampered; two of these behind) and his claims are obvious. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 16y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Won four staying handicaps when trained by Ian Williams but left that yard for 2,400gns only recently and ran moderately on the Flat at Pontefract 12 days ago (stable debut); 0-4 as a hurdler. |
25/1 |

5th 5 (2) |
5th Oct 2026 Good 2m 2f 2y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won four staying handicaps when trained by Ian Williams; this year's best efforts give him claims; sold for 2,400gns since latest run; new combination of accessories tried on stable debut. |
9/2 |

3 (4) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 24y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Has registered four wins, the last two over 2m on turf (good/good to firm) last summer; has generally struggled this season but he's on a reduced mark and made some late headway at Ffos Las last time; was beaten only about 3l in that race and has possibilities if he can build on that; visor is removed and blinkers return. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Four-time winner at about 1m4f on the Flat for Sir Mark Prescott, reaching a fairly useful standard (RPR 87); sold for 20,000gns since last run; possibilities assuming he takes well to hurdles. |
11/10 |

10th 1 (2) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 3lb |
Four-time winner (all 1m4f on a sound surface) with three of those in blinkers, latterly at Catterick (good; made all) on his penultimate start; overdid it in the lead before beating one home at Goodwood 12 days ago but could bounce back; cheekpieces (second on all three attempts) are reapplied. |
8/1 |

6th 1 (4) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Progress 4yo; won at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) in April and added to that success at Catterick (1m4f, good) 29 days ago, making all under Poppy Scott; can't be dismissed off this 2lb higher mark. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Second on Chelmsford Polytrack in latest AW race; tremendous progress last year once sent handicapping in cheekpieces, racking up four wins and the last three of those (in small fields) were over 2m, increasingly impressive; improvement stalled at Newmarket in the Cesarewitch Trial and Cesarewitch itself on last two outings, but he remains of major interest on this return. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Tremendous progress once sent handicapping in cheekpieces, racking up four wins and the last three of those (in small fields) were over 2m, increasingly impressive; he was put in his place, improvement ending, when never-dangerous third to Reverend Hubert over C&D three weeks ago off revised mark, but he's able to race off 5lb lower today; considered. |
9/1 |
|
4 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Since sent handicapping in cheekpieces he's delivered form figures of 12111 and has looked seriously progressive since upped to 2m, again winning as he liked last time at Goodwood (good to firm); handicapper didn't hold back with a 10lb rise but that might not halt his progress. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 4f 137y Class 2 |
8st 4lb |
Latest Flat start was his first win, by 7l in a four-runner race at Pontefract (2m1f, good to firm) last August for Ollie Sangster; seven races over hurdles for new connections, winning two (2m5f/2m3f) of the last three; probably has a good mark, so needs a second look, but this is a step up in class. |
16/1 |

1st 2 |
3rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Fair Flat racer who won easily over hurdles at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) in April, his second handicap; well beaten in valuable Fakenham contest since but back in calmer waters and on a more conventional track here; remains of interest, albeit the forecast rain may not be in his favour. |
