16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Two 1m wins on good ground last summer, including at this track; well short of that level in two runs this year and stepping up in trip with cheekpieces added isn't enough to tempt. |
8/1 |
|
6th 4 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Wide-margin classified win at Chepstow last July and she followed up in a Class 5 handicap at Haydock two weeks later (both 1m on good ground); well beaten in two runs since, including last month's return from 259 days on the sidelines; drops in class and could resume her progress. |
8/1 |

11th 9 (12) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Rather disappointing in hat-trick attempt when last seen, but this low-mileage 4yo may still have more to offer and can't be written off; gained her two wins over 1m on good ground. |

1st 4 (3) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Appeared to be found wanting for stamina over C&D two runs back but that was a warm handicap and he's since gone down narrowly in a Class 3 over 1m at Redcar (good; new tongue-tie), where he wasn't stopping; races up with the pace and firmly in the reckoning. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 9 (12) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Found 1m2f too far at York five weeks ago but the return here is a positive given his course record (111373); still 3lb above his last winning mark but holds each-way claims with a tongue-tie given a go. |
10/1 |
|
12th 15 (14) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Prominent-racer who won twice during last season's 3yo campaign (1m, good to soft/good to firm) and returned to form when third at Redcar (1m, good) last Thursday on his second start of the season; it's possible this new trip will be within range and he has an each-way shout if seeing it out. |

2nd 6 (5) |
18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Generally consistent apart from one moderate run on good to soft this year; he has won twice this summer, at Hamilton (8.5f, good) and over C&D (good to firm) with Jake Dickson on board; looks sure to give another good account. |
6/5 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Showed his tactical versatility when scoring over the extended mile at Hamilton in May (held up) and Nottingham on Thursday (made all); is unpenalised for latest success given it came in an apprentice race and Jake Dickson keeps the ride; obvious claims. |
7/4 |
|
1st 7 (1) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Dual winner, most recently at Hamilton (8.5f, good) last month when ridden by Jake Dickson; wasn't at his best there on good to soft 15 days ago but could bounce back; makes the shortlist. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
2lb lower than when seeing off 15 rivals in a 7f handicap (good ground) at York last summer; neither run this year points to him being the answer today though. |
25/1 |
|
6th 10 (2) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Won off this mark in first-time blinkers at York (7f, good) last July and he could improve for last month's respectable comeback at Southwell (7f, AW); however, he does need to build on that and blinkers are left off. |
8/1 |
|
7th 4 (7) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Scored off 1lb lower in first-time cheekpieces at York (7f, good) last summer and is also suited by Tapeta but we haven't seen him since a low-key run on soft turf in September. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Started handicap life on an unrealistic mark after winning his first two on Tapeta and struggled last year; found his level again in the visor lately, chasing home a subsequent winner before finding 1m4f beyond him last time; one to consider. |
5/1 |
|
4th 5 (9) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Dual AW winner for his previous stable; has tumbled in the weights since joining this yard last summer and ran well in the added visor at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) 19 days ago, shaping as if this step back up to 1m4f would suit; shortlisted. |
3/1 |
|
2nd 1 (7) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual AW winner; yet to win in four starts on turf, although fair fifth over 1m4f at Beverley last time (good to soft); this drop in trip should suit; visor now tried (well beaten only run in cheekpieces). |

Well held in 7f Thirsk handicap this month on his first start for Ewan Whillans, taking his record to 0-23. |
25/1 |
|
10th 11 (13) |
10th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up eight times but left Stuart Williams for 3,400gns and as a 22-race maiden; ran well when trying this headgear combination once before (early last year) but wouldn't be the percentage call. |
33/1 |
|
7th 3 (8) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
21-race maiden but eight times a runner-up, including over C&D last month; two defeats over 6f have followed and he has the widest stall to overcome; Rossa Ryan returns to the saddle. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Yet to make any further progress since winning 1m Ripon maiden a year ago and has been safely held on all three starts this season; might be aided by new tongue-tie and/or cheekpieces, though. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
A fair 1m winner in 2025; yet to beat a rival in a pair of 1m/1m1f handicaps at Ayr this season though so has plenty to prove. |
25/1 |
|
8th 4 (4) |
20th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Displayed improvement when placed in Carlisle novice (1m, good to soft) in July, his third start, but two disappointing handicap runs have followed; moves up in trip and sports new cheekpieces; has a point to prove. |
16/1 |
|
4 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Disappointing on handicap debut at Haydock (1m, good) last month but this 3yo was previously a promising third at Carlisle (1m, good to soft) and retains potential; no surprise if he bounces back with a big run. |
15/2 |
|
8th 4 (7) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has run in three novices, but still looked green when beaten just over a length into third of 14 at Carlisle (7.7f, good to soft) last month; could well show more now handicapping and worth a second look. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Handy sort who made all on her second handicap start at Haydock (1m, good to firm) in May but has regressed since (in headgear the last twice); needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (5) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Made all to win a 1m handicap at Haydock in May (good to firm); respectable efforts on her next two starts but she stopped quickly when tailed off at Haydock last month (cheekpieces first time); something to prove now tried in a visor; unraced on slower than good. |
14/1 |
|
9th 5 (8) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made all to get off the mark over C&D (good to firm) in May but, although not beaten far in either run since, she hasn't really built on that performance; cheekpieces given a go but needs to bounce back dropped 1lb. |
