22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Has been hurdling for this new yard but yet to make an impact in that sphere; runner-up three times for Rae Guest (1m6f/2m, AW) but others hold greater interest on her return to this code. |
14/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 3lb |
0-14 on the Flat; showed first glimmer of hurdling promise for new stable when fifth in C&D maiden three weeks ago but needs further improvement on this handicap debut. |

Modest Flat performer who has been well beaten in two races over hurdles; looks one for handicaps later on. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well backed with the visor left off when prevailing narrowly over C&D two weeks ago; settled a bit better that day and may have further improvement in him; raised only 2lb. |
4/1 |
|

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Six-race maiden with a tendency to race too freely; seemed to have too much use made of him when tried in a visor (now removed) over 1m2f at Lingfield last month but he ran well for a long way and this drop in trip could be a good move. |
9/2 |

3 (12) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Fair handicap debut at Windsor in August and ran to similar level when a nose behind Birthday Angel over C&D 19 days ago; addition of visor to tongue-tie could eke out more but draw hasn't been kind. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Triple course winner, including on firm and over this trip; placed over 1m2f here on his reappearance, when 1lb higher in May; probably too free at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) latest but will be an each-way player if able to settle better. |
11/4 |

5th 9 (6) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Five wins under the care of Stuart Kittow; creditable second at Bath on seasonal debut; has filled the same position in both attempts over C&D; again has place claims. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
26th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Course winner (extended 1m3f) on last April's reappearance; ended that campaign with some lesser efforts but he returns on a feasible mark and can't be discounted. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Multiple winner at around 1m4f (turf and AW); 3lb lower than her latest success, in February; well below par on her last four starts, including over C&D latest; revival needed dropping in grade. |
16/1 |
|
6th 2 (1) |
1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Seven-time winner, the latest on AW (1m4f) in February; quiet on her last three starts but she has slipped down the weights as a result. |
16/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 1m4f AW victory at Lingfield but her more recent form is not so encouraging, sixth of eight in 1m4f Chepstow handicap 12 days ago; more is required in a change of headgear. |
16/1 |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has 1-54 career strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022; this year's Flat handicap form is uninspiring but he'll appreciate this ease in grade and is worth a glance in the betting. |
14/1 |
|
5th 8 (4) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Has poor 1-53 strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022, and was soundly beaten on both outings this year (11.4f/1m2f); might be perked up by the refitted blinkers, though, and Billy Loughnane is a good booking. |

13th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Struggled on turf 12 days ago and remains without a win since September 2024 but this C&D suits him well and the pick of this year's form gives him each-way claims. |
20/1 |
|
7th 6 (9) |
1st Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
AW regular (four wins at around this trip) who was well held in this race last year; not disgraced back on turf when fourth in 1m2f classified event a fortnight ago but that brought his record to 0-8 on grass. |
12/1 |
|
4th 6 (4) |
18th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All four wins have been on AW, including three at this track; has been running creditably this year and shouldn't be far away on this return to turf. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Inconsistent for three previous yards, winning just once (last August) since 2023; satisfactory debut for new trainer when third at Chepstow (1m2f) 11 days ago, however, and probably effective here, so needs a second look. |
7/1 |

3rd 11 (1) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Inconsistent for three previous yards, winning just once since 2023; beaten a long way back on turf five weeks ago and isn't obviously fancied for new trainer. |
12/1 |
