2nd 2 (11) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Rejuvenated by the fitting of cheekpieces and doubled his tally in 7f Redcar handicap five days ago; well drawn there but scored emphatically so not taken lightly under a 5lb penalty. |
7/2 |
|
1st 3 (18) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
His sole success came at Doncaster (7f) on good to soft ground last July and he stepped up on a couple of modest efforts this term when fairly close fifth of 12 over that C&D (good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) last month; has dropped to a workable mark and may have a say if widest stall proves no barrier. |
8/1 |

5th 11 (3) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Gained a first win over C&D last July but well below that level in five subsequent starts, although he suffered a poor run when tenth of 12 in 1m Ripon handicap in June; cheekpieces go on after a break. |

15th Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has had two AW wins, including one over C&D, and added a Hamilton success (6f, good to soft) in August but he failed to beat a rival in the Ayr Bronze Cup (6f, soft); needs to bounce back from that. |
14/1 |

1st 1 (7) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
A fair 6f winner at Wolverhampton this spring for Jack Morland; not discredited for his new handler with third of 11 in 7f claimer at Carlisle two days ago; no forlorn hope. |
16/1 |
|
6th 1 (6) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Tapeta winner who won at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) for Jack Morland in April and was a close third there last month; now returns to turf for new yard but he ran some good races last summer including a close second at Doncaster (7f, good to soft); respected back in this sphere. |

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

13-race maiden who blows hot and cold; didn't run badly over C&D three weeks ago without suggesting she was the answer this time. |
8/1 |
|
4th 1 (7) |
3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
12-race maiden who has blown hot and cold since moving into handicaps; had a wind op prior to Carlisle (7f, good to soft) 15 days ago, a race where she was sent off favourite; has the ability to win off this mark but she's not one to rely on. |
5/1 |
|
8th 3 (3) |
19th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Quirky maiden who virtually refused to race at Newcastle in February, but she ran well at Southwell on her penultimate run, and her best effort last season was a close call over C&D; returns after wind surgery and she's not ruled out back at this track. |

28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Four wins divided between AW and turf; ideally positioned through the race when narrowly scoring at Kempton (7f) but this consistent 4yo has clear claims. |
7/2 |
|
1st 1 (5) |
30th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won on stable debut at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in December and back near that level when 1l fourth there (7f) ten days ago; also effective over this C&D and could have a big part to play under regular rider Harry Vigors. |
5/2 |

4th 2 (4) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |

2nd Oct 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice at Yarmouth (1m/6f) on his final two starts for Dylan Cunha and he's continued in good form since switching to this stable, finishing runner-up over 7f at Musselburgh and Redcar; has winning form on the AW and no obvious reason why he can't go well. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 4 (11) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Signed off for Dylan Cunha in good heart, winning twice at Yarmouth (6f/1m, good to firm) in the summer; 22-1 for his stable debut but he maintained the momentum, beaten just a neck at Musselburgh (7f) a fortnight ago; up 2lb but another good effort looks likely. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (2) |
25th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Bids for hat-trick after completing a Yarmouth double (1m/6f) for Dylan Cunha; shade fortuitous last time (runner-up's rider dropped whip) and switches to a contrasting venue on debut for new yard. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Took a big step forward on just his second go in handicaps when runner-up at Salisbury (1m) 16 days ago, hampered last 1f and awarded race; up 2lb but he remains unexposed at this trip; player. |
7/2 |
|
1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Smart sprinting pedigree but he's raced only at about 7f, keeping on at just the one pace when sixth of 12 on handicap debut at Doncaster (good to soft; first start since gelded) in July; might prefer quicker ground but he moves up to 1m with something to find. |
9/1 |
|
6th 1 (4) |
23rd Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on all three starts (7f/7.3f) and improvement is needed on handicap debut; however, he's been gelded since his last run last month which could help him tap into the considerable potential in his pedigree. |

Shooting down the weights but for good reason and doesn't look a winner waiting to happen; belatedly tries 1m for the first time. |

6 (2) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Began the year with a mark 24lb higher but it's been a struggle in handicaps, latterly for new yard; latest effort, when running into dead end after dead end in the straight at Haydock (7f, good; blinkers first time) was a bit more encouraging and he may have found his level now. |
12/1 |

8 (10) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Not entirely solid on his form for new stable but has slipped to an attractive mark and Warren Fentiman's claim is a bonus; may prove resurgent if taking well to first-time blinkers. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |

16/1 |
|
8th 2 (9) |
2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Hit the target for the first time when fending off Mercurius Power over C&D (22-1; from 4lb lower) in July; last of eight back on turf at Hamilton (1m1f) subsequently; returning to this track (1-2 on AW) could still prove beneficial. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 35y Class 6 |

1st Oct 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

8th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |

Inconsistent for Joseph Parr, been well held in two runs back for this yard and there's again no sign of the cheekpieces worn for his only win; plenty of rain may help, though, and he's worth a market check. |

10th 1 (2) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

28th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Heavy-ground winner over 7f on final 2yo start; conditions have mostly been difficult for her this year but her staying-on third of ten at Bath (1m, good to soft) 15 days ago was more promising; in the thick of it if adding cheekpieces has a good effect. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Ended her 2yo campaign with a heavy-ground success on handicap debut at Leicester (7f); that was off 2lb higher but she's struggled in four runs this season and a tongue-tie didn't make any difference at Kempton three weeks ago; has lots to prove including stamina at this new trip. |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

3rd 1 (8) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |

7f win at Chelmsford for Alice Haynes in November; two C&D runs for new stable have both resulted in good efforts but he didn't look straightforward under pressure here two weeks ago. |
