30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Won last summer on first two starts (6f, AW) then kept on for third of 18 in nursery at York (7f, good to firm) that worked out nicely; well beaten in Newmarket Group 3 (7f, good) on final 2yo start, which was followed by wind and gelding operations this March; also now has a first-time tongue-tie; needs to resume improvement in a major way. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt with a last-gasp win in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f, AW; 18-1) last month; 2lb higher back up in trip, but that was a brave success and he showed plenty of promise on turf last season including when fourth in a valuable sales race at Newmarket; respected. |
6/1 |
|
1st 6 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Not beaten far in a couple of sales races last autumn; not as good in two runs back, getting turned over at odds-on round Redcar before not seeing out 8.6f here early last month, and will need plenty more on this handicap debut. |
12/1 |

4th 6 (11) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Finished second in a Southwell novice last July on only AW start; has since shown decent form in various company at up to 7f on turf, with both blinkers and cheekpieces tried; sets the standard but he was only third at 8-11 at Redcar last time so probably vulnerable again. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-8 before return to form for a narrow front-running win at Lingfield (7f, AW) six days ago; that was an apprentice race, when ridden by Oliver Hoodless, so he can race off same mark today, but there is more to prove on turf form. |
100/30 |
|
1st 5 (2) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
0-8 and the step up in trip made no difference at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) 11 days ago; this intermediate distance may suit him better, but improvement is required; hood removed after one use. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Progressive of late, despite having had plenty of racing, adding to his C&D win in May (off 9lb lower) when going in at Bath last time (off 3lb lower); there's other pace in here, however, and he'll need another career-best effort. |
6/1 |

1st 4 (2) |
15th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Experienced 3yo who was winning for third time this year when scoring at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May; short-headed at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago by one who was completing a hat-trick; major contender. |
4/1 |

2nd 6 (7) |

Gained his sixth success when winning at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in May and ran well again at Windsor (6f, good to soft) next time, but failed to beat a rival at Ffos Las ten days ago and needs to bounce back. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Defied a penalty to win Tapeta novice (7f) in September and it was a career best when landing Lingfield event (7f, Polytrack) last Tuesday; carries a 6lb penalty but that was just his second handicap and further progress could be on the cards; player. |
4/1 |

1st 3 (6) |
11th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |

Landed a Ffos Las maiden (7.4f, heavy) and a Newcastle novice (7f, Tapeta) last September; well held in handicaps in his last two starts including on his reappearance at Sandown (7f, good; first start since being gelded) in June; needs to rebound. |

30th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Has proved ideally suited by 5f on good to firm and, despite taking a hefty rise for two June wins, he didn't take much urging to get to the front at Newmarket last time, before nudged out to hold the second; a further 5lb rise in a better race asks for more but he should be in contention; yard won this in 2019. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (8) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Prominent racer who returned to form to win over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago and he followed up at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last Saturday, with the front two clear; up 6lb for last time and this is tougher, but he's clearly progressive; key player. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won a 5f AW maiden for Ed Bethell last September; two fair runs in 6f turf handicaps on first two starts this term (with a hood on second occasion); tried in cheekpieces last time (met trouble); now up in trip with a hood back on. |
8/1 |
|
10th 11 (10) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
5f AW win for Ed Bethell last September; better form when a close second at Ripon on her seasonal/stable debut at Ripon (6f, good); not so good at Hamilton 16 days ago when tried in a hood; now gets cheekpieces and needs to improve for them. |

5f AW win for Ed Bethell; good start for her new connections when a close second of ten at Ripon last month (6f, good; first two clear); up 3lb but she can't be ruled out. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last year, winning at Kempton (1m, AW) and Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in September; 7lb higher than for that latest success and needs to take a step forward from last month's reappearance at Windsor. |

10th 7 (1) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improved for a step up in trip and switch to nurseries last summer, rounding off his 2yo campaign with wins at Kempton (1m) and Wolverhampton (9.4f); has more to do in this higher grade off a 7lb higher mark but he isn't fully exposed; returns with his trainer in fine form. |

25th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ten-race maiden whose best effort came when narrowly denied in a novice at Leicester (5f, good to soft) last October; well beaten over 6f on his final start for Ed Dunlop and now steps back up in trip on his stable debut having been bought for 8,000gns; watch the betting. |

8,000gns foal; fourth foal; sister to 5f 2yo winner Jeany May (RPR 70), half-sister to 6f winner El Montejean (79); dam 5f winner (70); would be a very rare first-time-out winner for the stable. |
