2nd 10 (9) |
26th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
2yo campaign bookended with wins and went close on reappearance this time around (sole AW start); quiet since and the fitting of a tongue-tie and returning to 6f haven't helped of late. |

5th 4 (6) |
14th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Went close on seasonal debut at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) in March but largely disappointing over that trip since; too well handicapped to rule out on this return to 6f but others have more pressing claims. |
20/1 |

15th 13 (18) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Won at both sprint trips as a 2yo but he hasn't been at the forefront of calculations in three turf handicaps this year and has ground to make up on Quantum Power on their recent Newmarket run; looks to have his share of weight and fitting a tongue-tie needs to make a difference. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His nursery win came here over 5f off 2lb higher; quiet in two runs for current trainer, the latest after wind surgery and a gelding operation. |

7th 2 (8) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Dual winner on turf for previous yard; absent and had wind/gelding operations since below-par effort on AW last December (stable debut); the market signals may give useful extra guidance on reappearance. |
16/1 |

9th 3 (11) |
10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Consistent colt who can boast 5f wins at Nottingham (novice) and Windsor (nursery off 4lb lower) this season; finished behind two of today's rivals at Haydock two weeks ago but he raced further away from the stands' rail than either Clear Force or Concert and it was also his first run on slower than good; apprentice takes off a handy 5lb; contender. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won three times at two, including at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) off 3lb higher in October; he's performed below that level in his three outings this year but latest fifth over 5f here was a bit better and he should be suited by the return to 6f; no shock were he to bounce back to form with a bang. |
25/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won three times at two, including at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) in October; however, he's struggled in three starts since (two this year) and drops back in trip with a bit to prove. |
25/1 |
|
11th 1 (9) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Busy spell as a juvenile included wins in Brighton maiden (5.5f) and course nursery (5f, again good to firm); also stays 6f and landed series final at Nottingham (good to soft) in October; more exposed than most of these and finished last on his reappearance, however; drops back down in grade. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
12-race maiden who has form figures of 556097 in handicaps and was always in rear at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last Tuesday; opposable. |
25/1 |
|
7th 3 (8) |
14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Early promise for previous yard but didn't progress and it's been a struggle off high marks since switched to handicaps; dropping steadily in the weights and down in grade so may do better; has worn a hood, first-time cheekpieces today. |
16/1 |
|
9th 11 (12) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
0-10 and she has yet to shine for her new stable, beaten 14l behind Simba's Pride at Ripon five weeks ago; lots to prove. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Improved with each of her first four 2yo runs, following a Yarmouth novice win with a cosy success at Sandown last July; flopped on soft ground wn last seen but that isn't the run to judge her on; absent for 275 days but likely there is more in the tank. |
7/2 |
|
1 (2) |
29th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has raced only on good ground; 2-2 since wearing a hood, latest performance in C&D nursery when beating a subsequent scorer and taking overall form figures to 3211; respected in the retained headgear. |
