16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 2y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Started favourite on his first nine starts last year, winning two of them, both off lower marks; hit traffic over an inadequate 5f on his comeback a few weeks ago, which will ensure he's popular once again for a yard also responsible for Cairdeas. |
4/1 |

23rd Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
All best form at 6f on good or quicker ground; easily excused a modest farewell to 2025 on account of soft going but he does have something to prove in his first-ever 5f run. |

8st 12lb |
Three wins last year included one at Catterick (7f) and one off this mark (6f, good); absent five months and he will need to be at his best to make a winning return. |

4th Nov 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Beat the Portland winner in August (6f, good) but rather subdued since then and the usual blinkers are off, replaced by cheekpieces. |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Good spell culminated in an October double; form has dipped sharply since and he is due a 2lb drop in future; close second in sole C&D attempt but this is harder and doesn't look as if he's about to add to his tally. |
16/1 |

9th 3 (5) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 8y Class 3 |

Best to forgive reappearance effort (badly hampered); registered three wins apiece in 2024 and 2025 but needs to prove he can defy current mark. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Below par last time but consistent otherwise of late and may well rebound, especially back at Pontefract; form here features two wins in 2025 and a close second this spring. |
6/1 |
|
8th 6 (5) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Closed out last season with a pair of soft-ground wins and has resumed in good form off his revised mark, latterly when having two of these behind at Chester last weekend; adaptable as regards ground and tactics, and can't be discounted. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 16 (7) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ended 2025 in top form and he has returned to action with two solid placed efforts; 2lb ahead of the handicapper and no obvious reason why he wouldn't give it another good shot. |

11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Stable yet to get rolling for the year but he was a bright spot when springing a surprise over C&D off 3lb lower in February; not entirely convinced over 7f a couple of times since and holds each-way claims. |
10/1 |
|
4th 7 (6) |
11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
6f winner here on his penultimate start and he didn't fail through a lack of stamina when third at Chelmsford 13 days ago; he was well positioned in a race where nothing challenged from the rear there though and others appeal more for win purposes. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (3) |
26th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Strong at the finish when winning a 6f handicap at Southwell two weeks ago; the subsequent 4lb rise looks less of a concern than the additional furlong. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Reacted well to first-time cheekpieces when picking up nicely to collar a back-to-form rival (pair clear) at Haydock (5f, soft) on Thursday; 5lb penalty in a deeper race but a bigger factor could be that the ground is unlikely to be as testing this time (has won on good but seems most potent when the mud is flying). |
10/1 |
|
1st 5 (1) |
21st May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Returned to form when second at Beverley (5f, good) last month; sixth of seven there since (5f, good to soft) but beaten less than 2l and he's a three-time winner here (6f/5f, good-heavy); could be bang there now back here in first-time cheekpieces. |
9/4 |
|
6th 8 (3) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Last win came off a 6lb higher mark over C&D in April 2025 (good); runner-up in that equivalent race 11 days ago (good) and with rain about, could go well again. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Half of his wins have come over C&D and he finished sixth (Fortamour third) in this race in 2024; runner-up in added blinkers at Hamilton (6f, soft; 11-2) last September, but has failed to sparkle since (0-3); easing mark and a return to Ripon are the positives. |
20/1 |
|
7th 9 (9) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Multiple 6f winner, mainly on softer than good, most recently off current mark at Carlisle last May; inconsistent since and has something to prove back up in trip. |
14/1 |
|
6th 8 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Back on much the same mark as his latest win, an amateur jockeys' race at Carlisle (good to soft) last May; has won on reappearance but he tends to need the run these days. |

18th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Placed in AW contest on reappearance and has a fighting chance provided he builds on that effort; still well treated on his two wins (handicap/claimer) last summer. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 8 (6) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
A dual 6f scorer in 2025 but he's been off since coming in last of seven in 6f seller here in October; handily weighted if resurgent after a break though. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 (5) |
18th Nov 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Went close on his reappearance here in March and has since won a Pontefract handicap (6f, good) and a Wolverhampton claimer (6f, Tapeta); gave the impression a return to further may suit when fifth of nine behind Dark Kestrel over C&D last month. |

19th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time course winner who's been in good form here this spring; no obvious reason he won't go well again, having split Lord Capulet and King's School last month, but there's not much room for manoeuvre off this mark. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (5) |
1st May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Close up behind Beale Street here in March (6f) and produced a similar effort from off the pace to be runner-up over C&D 11 days ago; needs a good pace to chase (stays 1m) and no guarantee that he'll get one here. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 6 (1) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
His last three wins have been at Newcastle and he produced a powerful finish when going close in a Class 4 here (6f) last month; looks interesting off only 1lb higher on this drop back in grade and his last success was over C&D. |

9st 1lb |
0-10 for current stable; made the frame three times last May but wasn't in the same form afterwards in 2025; turnaround would give him a good chance off current mark. |
12/1 |
|
7 (6) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Essentially disappointing for his new stable this season; continues to drop down the weights but others are more appealing for win purposes. |
