21st Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
A mild improver since handicapping, beating two subsequent dual winners at Ripon (1m4f, good) in July, and she finished well clear with the winner at Pontefract (1m4f, good to soft) last month; likely to be close up. |
5/2 |

2nd 5 (3) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Steady improvement in handicaps since June and she won a four-runner Ripon handicap (1m4f, good) in July; 4lb higher but was beaten only a head at Windsor (11.5f, heavy) 17 days ago; up another 2lb but her gradual progression is appealing. |
7/4 |

1st Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Record of 421 since handicapping includes a solid effort over C&D (good to firm); Ripon win (1m4f, good) has been boosted by the runner-up since; respected with further improvement plausible. |

3rd 9 (14) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Acts on good to soft but unraced on soft since 2024 (trained was positive about it last September); no shortage of success beforehand but cheekpieces seem to have worked very well on last two starts when winning at York (1m2f, good) and running on well again for second at Southwell (1m4f, AW); raised another 3lb but came from an unpromising position last time and still has more to give. |
14/1 |

2nd 10 (8) |
6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Five wins since July last year including one over 1m4f here; cheekpieces seemed to work well at York (1m2f, good) last time and a player in his hat-trick bid despite a 6lb rise. |
7/1 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Has a 5lb penalty for his narrow win at Pontefract on Monday (1m4f, good), having finished runner-up over this trip at Newcastle on his previous start; well-drawn; cheekpieces tried; place chance. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Edging back down the weights and now 3lb higher than for the latest of two wins over 1m6f last September; wore cheekpieces in a void race last month, but this is effectively his first start in them; shortlisted. |
8/1 |
|
7 (5) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Has three wins on turf but has gone off the boil on his last two starts; swaps a visor for first-time cheekpieces on AW debut; not out of this but new headgear needs to have an impact. |

27th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Course winner last May and he doubled his tally when winning at Beverley (1m2f, soft) last September; however, he's been well beaten in three starts this year, including at Ayr (1m2f, good; first-time tongue-tie) on his first start since wind surgery. |
12/1 |
|
12th 1 (8) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Won twice on ground slower than good last season (1m1f/1m2f) and is still quite lightly raced but looked out of sorts on both appearances this spring and needs recent wind op to have made a difference. |
12/1 |
|
7th 12 (6) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Won handicaps last season when always prominent at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) in May and Beverley (1m2f, soft) in September; no show when 14-1 for reappearance one month ago, his first race on good to firm, but it's not hard to think he will be a lot more potent today. |
