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. |

Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last July; three lesser runs followed and no return to form on his reappearance in April; he could improve for that latest effort but his claims aren't compelling. |

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. |

C&D winner in April and only a length behind Hockney last time at Kempton when conceding 8lb to that rival; has a bad draw but still has to be considered at these weights. |

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. |
4/1 |

8th 9 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Quirky maiden who has often shown a tendency to race too freely and who lost all chance when virtually refusing to race on penultimate start; did well to take fourth over C&D last month, but remains a risky option. |

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 |

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. |
6/1 |

1st 1 (4) |
5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |

Runner-up here over 1m two starts back, then went one better here eight days ago, also over 1m; now drops back to 6f for the first time since his second start and that would be a concern under a 5lb penalty. |

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 |

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. |

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. |

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 |

Made it 15th-time lucky at Newcastle (1m, AW) a week ago; now needs to show he can do it back on turf from 4lb higher and also still has stamina to prove. |

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

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 182y Class 5 |

Two AW wins at 7f and she ran respectably over that trip in turf handicaps late last summer but was too far below her best in November and on her reappearance last month to make much appeal today. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |

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 |

Improved to win 7f nursery on heavy ground last autumn but well below that form this season (five runs; 7f-1m2f), including when back on slow turf a fortnight ago. |

6th 1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
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 |

Third in 7f handicaps at Lingfield on his last two starts; doesn't look the easiest ride but Donagh Murphy is fine value for his 5lb claim against other apprentices; no obvious reason why he wouldn't give another good account at a track he ran well at last October. |

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. |
