21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Her last four wins have come at this track, with two of them (7f/1m) last month; drawn wide when down the field at Chester two weeks ago but she has fared better on that front today; big run on the cards. |
4/1 |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Last four wins at Musselburgh, including two last month, latterly producing a career-best performance to see off ten rivals over 1m on good; runner-up on only Chester visit; a further 4lb rise demands even more but can't rule out in her current mood. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Best form at 7f on good/firmer; completed a hat-trick last summer and ran creditably in big field at Newmarket in the first of his two starts this term; chance may depend on the actions of the weather, however. |
8/1 |
|
10th 5 (12) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Best form at 7f on good/firmer; completed a hat-trick last summer and could be set for further success this term, having performed encouragingly (third of 18) at Newmarket on reappearance; one to consider. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Justified favouritism (6f, good) on seasonal debut, taking Goodwood record to 3-3 and overall strike-rate to 4-12; a possible danger provided his progress can be sustained away from that track. |
8/1 |
|
1st 2 (3) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
A three-time winner for James Owen in 2025, signing off with a second C&D success in October; has a career-high mark to overcome on his seasonal return but not taken at all lightly. |
5/1 |
|
5 (8) |
12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
3yo who has had an up-and-down campaign and was soundly beaten in the Ayr Silver Cup three weeks ago; however, he's won twice this season (good/heavy), including over C&D earlier last month, and is not ruled out. |

27th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Smooth win at Newcastle (7f) in December and now rated 2lb lower; that is a result of beating just one horse home in four subsequent starts; jury out for now. |
14/1 |

9th 4 (9) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

Justified favouritism over C&D in December; not in anything like the same form, beating a total of just one rival, in three outings since. |
20/1 |

9th 6 (1) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Justified favouritism at Newcastle (7f) but failed to match the form in two starts on consecutive days later in December; yet to win over this trip; others preferred. |

8st 7lb |
Out of sorts since December AW success, finishing in midfield at York (40-1) on return to turf last time; beginning to look well handicapped but needs a revival. |
40/1 |

15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Campaigned exclusively on AW for current stable; out of sorts since December win; well handicapped on best turf form for previous yard, so has a good chance if the return to this sphere sparks a revival. |

Won a small-field C&D handicap over Christmas but two nothing runs in January and difficult to know what to expect from him after a break. |

9th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won two in a row in July, including her second C&D victory (good to soft), and she's also won on soft ground; however, she hasn't been at her very best on her last three outings and needs something extra today. |
10/1 |

29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Three wins this season, the latest over C&D (good) in July; versatile regarding ground but recent efforts suggest she's on a fairly tough mark now. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 12lb |
One of three for trainer; won twice on the Flat for Charlie Johnston on good ground; rated 83 in that sphere; signed off British career with a tailed off finish at Hamilton in September; makes hurdling/stable debut now in a first-time tongue tie. |
11/1 |

29th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Acts on good to soft but both wins (at 1m3f and about 1m) on good; ran up to his best when a close second of seven at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in August but needs to pull out more against in-form rivals. |
