7th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 84y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Versatile and consistent handicapper who landed the 2025 Cesarewitch (2m2f) in most recent turf attempt and has been placed in all AW starts (1m2f-2m) this year; however, faces a very difficult task at the weights upped in class. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who won on good to soft and heavy in previous campaigns and hit top form again when pipped in a 1m4f York handicap on good ground on latest start; dropping back in trip poses something of a question but otherwise she looks set for a big run. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Won off 2lb lower at Newcastle last autumn but hasn't repeated the form and slow starts are becoming a habit; needs to get back on track. |
22/1 |
|
13th 10 (13) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Neck second of 15 over C&D (good to firm) last August and his seventh of 12 at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last month can be upgraded as he was slowly away in a race which favoured those ridden more prominently; he's one to consider back up in trip. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Won three of his first four starts for Ollie Sangster between July 2023 and April 2024, but has only been successful in one of his last 17 starts and that was on the AW; needs to step up from his Doncaster return (1m2f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Only fourth of nine at York (1m4f, good) in July last time but prior to that he was beaten just a neck by Stressfree when making the running here (1m4f, good) in May; effective on soft/good to soft; remains lightly raced and is not written off now back here. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Effective on good to soft and good; record of 2-7 and better than ever when putting the pace to the race and just missing out at Haydock two months ago (1m4f); solid contender here off 3lb higher. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 13 (10) |
31st May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 175y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
All turf starts have been on softer than good; won a Southwell novice last July, followed up in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster (1m4f, good to soft) and good third of 15 off this mark in valuable 1m4f race at Newmarket; he failed to live up to favouritism at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) on reappearance but wasn't disgraced and, after just six races, may still do better. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
1m4f winner in France and added a 1m2f AW handicap at Newcastle this spring; consistent since and probably better over this far than the 1m6f he ran over last time at Ascot; cheekpieces given a go. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |

Lightly raced 4yo; 1m4f winner in France and added a 1m2f AW handicap at Newcastle this spring; consistent since, last time appearing to stay the new trip of 1m5f at Ayr; does have a lot weight, though. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Usually races prominently but came from the rear, having fluffed the start, to dead-heat over C&D (good; subsequently awarded outright win) last summer; now only 1lb above that mark and returns here after respectable run in quite valuable Musselburgh race last month; one to consider. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
238 days off before his Newcastle run three weeks ago when he may well have been in need of the race and interference exacerbated his margin of defeat; possibilities if that has brought him back to his best. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Promoted to first in 1m4f handicap here (good to firm) last June and he races off 2lb lower today; however, he wasn't at his best last year on his final few runs for Edward Bethell, and failed to threaten over hurdles in the winter on his first two starts for this yard; may be best watched. |

23rd Jan 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 128y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Talented on the Flat and open to improvement on second hurdle start; however, he was about 14l behind Minstrel Knight when sixth at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month and may be of greater interest when back in headgear. |

13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
C&D winner in 2023; no joy anywhere last season (mostly at this track) but the closest he came was a neck defeat here (1m2f; 4lb higher today) on final start; not far away on AW last three starts this year and the same may be possible on today's return to turf. |
16/1 |

4th 6 (7) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Losing run now up to 14, but his last couple of efforts have been encouraging as when second of six in a slightly stronger contest at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) last month; still on his last winning mark and holds each-way claims. |
10/1 |
|
2nd 4 (5) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Drew a blank in 2025 but he ended that campaign with a good second in a big-field 10.2f handicap at York; two respectable AW runs this year but he will need to raise his game to take this. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Slightly resurgent on reappearance but needs to build on that effort and remains far from solid on his form for current stable; was a useful sort for previous yard. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (2) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Useful performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off in his last five starts, including on hurdling debut in August; has plenty to prove on his return and last win was almost two years ago. |
25/1 |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Useful Flat performer at up to 1m6f for the Gosdens but regressive for his current yard and tailed off on his last four starts (blinkered on latest); perhaps he'll be sweetened up by hurdling but he carries obvious risks. |
