7th 4 (8) |
17th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has patchy profile but he put in a dominant display at Kempton (1m) in October and he had some traffic issues in the closing stages when a respectable sixth over C&D last time; still looks on a workable mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid. |
9/2 |

13th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
C&D winner; off the mark for this yard when beating 12 rivals at Windsor in July (1m, soft); not so good in Doncaster classified event four weeks ago but this return to Class 6 will help and he has the ability to feature. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Couple of absences in recent times and he has regressed (well drawn when faring better in a soft-ground handicap last time); goes well here, though, and holds each-way claims. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (7) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |

Both wins came on AW in 2023 when trained by Richard Hughes; has gone into freefall since and was last of 11 at Bath last month. |

Well handicapped on last season's best forrm (AW) but he ended the year with a whimper and returns from a 135-day break with an inexperienced amateur booked. |

4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Two 7f handicap wins on the AW, the latest over C&D in April under Charlie Tucker, but he was disappointing on the turf track here (7f) since, given that he's handled that test in the past; shade to prove this time. |
8/1 |
|
6th 7 (9) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Yet to score on turf but last month he recorded his second AW win, at this track (7f); holds claims if he can reproduce his best back on turf. |
9/2 |

1st 6 (6) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

Often misses the break and can pull hard, so will always come with risks attached; has resumed in good form, though, latterly behind a couple of subsequent winners at Chelmsford, and is quite capable off this mark if things fall his way. |

15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Well held all four runs this season but has had excuses with one thing and another, latterly when drawn out of it over C&D nine days ago (among the favourites); has gone well here previously and is one to consider off a career-low mark. |
10/1 |
|
8th 6 (2) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins came in September 2024; tends to race prominently and if his natural exuberance can be harnessed then he would not be far away. |
4/1 |
|
7th 12 (15) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Went back-to-back in good-ground handicaps (7f/1m, including here) in September 2024 but no wins since and two runs last month (led before weakening) don't suggest another crack at this trip will turn the ship around. |

Both wins have come over C&D but latest was in January 2025; finished third over 7f here in March but he's struggled in both subsequent runs and others are preferred. |
20/1 |
|
8th 10 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Both wins on Lingfield AW but runner-up twice from six starts here; having run so poorly back on turf last time is the big stumbling block. |
25/1 |

12th 9 (12) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 135y Class 6 |

Dual winner here on the AW over 1m; bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when third of nine here on the AW over 7f last time but he could do without the rain on this switch back to turf (well beaten in three starts on soft). |

Continues to run with credit and recorded his eighth career win at Lingfield in February; has made the frame on all four starts since and shouldn't be far away. |
13/2 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
In the veteran stage now but the old man's been giving younger legs plenty of trouble this year, dead-heating at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February and placed on another five occasions; still in good heart judged on latest second at Bath (1m, firm) and this dual C&D winner can go well again. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Third in his last two starts over 1m/1m2f here, but now 0-19 despite a slipping mark and not sure dropping back to this trip is the key; blinkers return. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Regressive maiden who hasn't looked to see it out in a few previous tries at this trip, including over C&D this time last year; back in form here last time and this looks weaker again, given a second try in cheekpieces (in place of blinkers); stamina the question. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 2 (11) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Blinkered when he hit a run of second spots at 7f and 1m last summer, including here (soft; acts on good to firm) in September; had previously looked unlucky on a couple of those occasions and the blinkers were absent when never figuring at Lingfield ten days ago; might do better with that aid now refitted and he's dangerously handicapped; watch the market. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Sprung a 40-1 surprise at Windsor in June (1m, good to firm); now 2lb lower but that is a result of having shown little since; handles Polytrack but others look safer. |

14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

C&D winner who ended a lengthy losing run when scoring off a reduced mark here (7f) last month; up 4lb and was way below that over this trip at Chelmsford (Polytrack; 25-1) 12 days ago; bounce back required but that's not out of the question. |

Can race freely and has done a lot of his racing over shorter, often in headgear, but proved this trip is within range on his Windsor comeback in May; below that level twice since though. |
13/2 |

6th 8 (11) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |

Now 8lb higher than when successful over C&D (good to soft) in October; not at his best at Newbury (1m, good) last time, but his previous narrow defeat on his Windsor reappearance (1m2f, good to firm) suggested this sort of mark was within reach; shortlisted. |

0-8 but she's finished placed in her last two handicaps including a rallying third at Bath (1m, firm) in August; continues to edge down the weights and has each-way claims again for new yard (left Paul Attwater for 4,000gns). |

Improved once returned to AW and bagged a hat-trick across October and December (1m); on the scoresheet again upped to 9.5f at Wolverhampton (career-best form) in February; form took a slight dip on last two starts, while his earlier turf form isn't comparable so interesting to see how he fares back on grass. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
