28th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Unproven on ground softer than good; far from solid on his efforts this term; however, won this race (narrowly) off 1lb higher 12 months ago and has clear possibilities if back in similar form. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Won at Redcar and Thirsk for today's rider last season (both over 1m on good ground), but hasn't shown the same level of form in two runs this term; conditions suit and back on last winning mark. |

Veteran who has been ridden by Rebecca Hitchen since joining current yard, posting form figures of 31216; hindered by wide trip in AW contest on reappearance most recently; could go well with that outing under his belt. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ended a losing run in a similar event over C&D in January (visored first time); she has found it tougher going since and she needs to leave her latest run well behind her. |

Landed a similar contest at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in January, but that her only success in her last 25 starts; could go well but others preferred for the win. |

1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
10st 12lb |
All five wins on AW, with the latest three coming under Ellie Mayo (5f-1m); led for a long way but faded into third at Redcar (1m, good) 63 days ago; has the tongue-tie added and probably needs a strong pace to aim at over this trip (won his only previous start over 5f). |

All five wins on AW, with the latest three coming under Ellie Mayo (5f-1m); well beaten over 6f in latest two starts but soft ground may not have suited at Carlisle 25 days ago; has something to prove in first 1m run for over a year; visor returns. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
0-19; best run this season when 3.5l third to Giselles Izzy (11lb worse off) at Ayr in June (7f, good); hasn't fared quite so well when stepped back up to 1m on two starts since; back after a break; place chance. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
18-race maiden but he's run respectably in classified events on his last two starts (7f/1m); returns to handicap company with place claims. |
7/1 |

4th 1 (3) |
15th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-17 but ran with credit dropped to this level for the first time when third of nine at Ayr, (7f, good) last time, shaping as though worth another go at this trip; a contender on form, but unraced on ground faster than good. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Found out by the drop back to 6f at Catterick 19 days ago; in good form over this trip beforehand but in a lower grade; could prove vulnerable in Class 4 company. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 212y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
In good form over 7f, winning at Wolverhampton in June and placed at Carlisle and Catterick since; Ethan Tindall takes off a handy 5lb; drop in trip not ideal but this looks likely to be run at a strong pace. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 4 (3) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Veteran who has a good chance on some of his 2026 handicap form over 8.5f at Beverley, including latest start, and gives the impression this return to 1m2f is worth exploring. |
4/1 |

2nd 5 (4) |
13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
C&D record read 14224 before June's below-par run, and a foray into classified company since bore no fruit either; wouldn't dismiss outright from this lowest mark he's ever raced off in a handicap, however. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Placed five tims this season but his losing run stretches back over two years and he wasn't at his best at Redcar when last seen eight weeks ago; on a dangerous mark but others appeal more for win purposes. |
13/2 |

7th 5 (4) |
30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Latest of his three wins came at Beverley (8.5f, soft) over two years ago but he's been placed on five occasions this year; below his best at Ayr (7f, good) 16 days ago and he now goes back up to 1m with the headgear removed. |

8st 13lb |
Successful four times over C&D, including in last two starts, beating stablemate Keep Me Stable by 1l latest; this 8yo retains plenty of vitality and is still well handicapped on historical data; beaten in this race for last three years (form figures 002) but warrants respect in current form. |
9/2 |

1st 4 (4) |
7th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

Won for the fifth time on turf when holding on by a head from Misemerald in a C&D handicap last week (good); not sure to confirm the placings with the second on 4lb worse terms. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 6 |

This C&D brings out the best in him and he had a near miss here last month; neither Ayr run this month has been comparable but he should be in the shake up back here. |
