6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Won first time out on Polytrack two years ago and made it 2-3 on the AW when closing out last season with a Newcastle victory off 4lb lower; perhaps a bit surprising to see no blinkers tonight but he's one to consider. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (12) |
18th Nov 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Record of 0-8 this term; however, drops back two grades and is far less exposed on AW than on turf, having raced only twice in this sphere (won the first attempt); interesting off current mark. |
9/1 |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Three wins last season (1m6f-2m1f) and he's now 5lb below his last winning mark; blinkers were enlisted for last two outings, when beaten only about 3l, so he has each-way claims. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Won Sedgefield maiden (2m4f, good) just over a year ago but has looked out of sorts in handicaps over a wide range of trips this year. |

10th Apr 2026 Good 3m 3f 9y Class 5 |

Sole win came in a maiden here but over 2m4f; three modest runs in handicaps since returning from a break and has stamina to prove. |

27th Mar 2026 Good 2m 5f 56y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Gained sole success in Sedgefield maiden; holds weak claims on his form since switched to handicap hurdles; yard appears to have a better chance with Mandarb. |

14th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 62y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Won twice on the Flat (1m2f-1m4f) for Ollie Sangster and once over hurdles (2m2f, Kelso) for Rebecca Menzies; beaten 22l and 76l in two starts for new trainer; easing mark isn't enough to recommend. |

3rd Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 0y Class 4 |

Won at Kelso last May (2m2f, good) when with Rebecca Menzies; well beaten on stable debut last time and perhaps best watched for now. |

30th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
1-8 over hurdles, the win gained off 1lb lower mark at Kelso (2m2f, good) in May; disappointed on both recent Flat starts, though, and arrives here with a point to prove. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 2y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
He's posted easy wins here this June (2m2f, good), August (2m1f, good to firm) and September (2m1f, good to soft); plenty to find with the form principals but can give another good account at his favourite track. |
10/1 |

18th Sep 2025 Good 2m 1f 27y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Form figures in staying handicaps at this track this year read 211, the latest success coming by 5l over 2m1f (good) last month; heavy defeat on AW last time but respected back here. |
5/2 |
|
10 (11) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has won two staying handicaps at Pontefract this summer and he nearly prevailed in a small field here in May; edging up the weights but he's having a productive spell. |

16th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Stayed on gamely to score at Leicester (2m4f, heavy) in January, her third hurdle win, and probably bettered that performance when close/clear second at Southwell (3m, soft) last month; competes off career-high mark here but still respected in current form. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 5 |
18th Feb 2026 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
Got on a roll last spring having joined this yard, winning at Ffos Las and Wetherby (2m4f/3m, good; cheekpieces) before clinching a Flat-race hat-trick at staying trips; brought her stable record to 6-11 when scoring at Leicester (about 2m4f, heavy) one month ago and holds leading claims once again. |
2/1 |
|
1st 9 |
20th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 4f 110y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Won two good-ground hurdles (2m4f/3m) and three consecutive Flat races during highly productive spell last spring/summer and bettered low-key reappearance run when respectable third at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month; may yet have a bigger performance in her. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Headgear helped on AW last September-December, including for 1m6f/2m hat-trick; peak form was not repeated this year, including in two small fields this spring but they were at 1m3f/1m4f; returning to 2m should be a big help but none of his turf form (five races) approaches this mark. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
1st May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Headgear helped last autumn, with him landing a hat-trick, including two over 2m round Southwell, latterly off a 4lb lower mark; solid effort there last Thursday, back from a few months off (1m3f), but he'll want a similarly strong pace this evening. |
3/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won his last two starts for Ralph Beckett and completed the hat-trick here over 2m in November when visored for the first time on his debut for this stable; ran another good race when runner-up at Kempton (2m) next time but he was below his best 97 days ago; could bounce back on his first start since but this drop back in trip may not be ideal. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Won over 2m at Ffos Las for Jedd O'Keeffe last August (good to soft; awarded race by the stewards) and some fair efforts after that; not done as well since (tailed off over hurdles last time) and has been well beaten all three AW runs; back after wind surgery. |

1st Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 171y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Trailed home last in the Chepstow race won by Thewoodcorner, failing to back up his Wetherby effort; sold out of Harry Derham's stable for 1,000gns since; opposed. |
50/1 |
|
7th 3 |
27th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Class 6 Flat handicap winner (2m, good to soft) who ran okay when third on his hurdle/stable debut at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month; improvement needed but he's in good hands to progress; not discounted. |
