16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Wore cheekpieces last six starts, winning in late summer last year on first two occasions; a late effort took him from last to fifth of 14 when he made a good reappearance here (1m4f, good to firm) last month but venturing beyond an extended 1m4f for first time provides a huge question mark. |

5th 1 (9) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
The winner of eight of his 22 starts, the latest success coming at Kempton (1m4f) off a 2lb lower mark; ended 2025 with a couple of lesser runs and might be best watched on return. |
33/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Has gone 2-2 in the cheekpieces, nicely on top late on at Windsor and Kempton (1m4f); two 5lb rises asks a question of him but something seems to have clicked. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Mostly creditable efforts in defeat this season, including second of nine at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) last month; below-par sixth in this race on heavy ground last year; William Buick up but others arrive with more pressing claims. |
11/1 |

2nd 4 (10) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Had a good summer over about 1m4f last term, including when beaten a neck by Night Breeze in this race; some minor honours this season, without being quite in peak form but he is in serious each-way calculations. |
11/2 |
|
3rd 2 (11) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Had a good summer over about 1m4f last term, including a win in this race (good to soft) off 6lb lower; the handicapper has been winning the argument since but recent efforts have been creditable and he ought to be competitive again. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Fit from AW and hurdling when good second to Fierce Fortitude at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April, keeping on strongly; respectable fourth of 16 to a runaway winner at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) four weeks ago and should be okay back at 1m4f, but this race looks a bit too hot; 5lb claimer is recruited. |
14/1 |
|
4th 16 (3) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Acts on good to soft, unraced on soft; fit from AW and hurdling when good second of seven at Redcar (1m2f) five weeks ago, keeping on strongly; up 2lb and into a better race but needs a second look. |
18/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Caught wide when down the field at Lingfield in February on last Flat start and when well beaten over hurdles on his last two runs he was contesting hot 4yo races; on a competitive mark on last summer's Flat form and he was a Listed hurdle runner-up in October; not ruled out back in this code. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Two 1m4f wins for Ben Brookhouse last year, including this race on good to firm; hasn't seriously threatened back on the Flat for current yard and it remains to be seen whether a return to York sparks a full-scale revival. |
20/1 |
|
7th 3 (10) |
24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 39y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Two 1m4f wins for Ben Brookhouse on a sound surface but he finished well adrift on his reappearance and first start since wind surgery at Nottingham in April; much more competitive when fifth of 15 at Chester (12.5f, good) one month later; was well drawn that day but it's still early days for this yard. |
20/1 |
|
5th 1 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Won twice over this trip for Ben Brookhouse last year but his stable/hurdle debut in December was underwhelming and he made a low-key return to the Flat last month; others have much less to prove. |

25th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
1m4f maiden winner on good in June beaten but upwards of 4l in his three handicaps since; being eased another 2lb can only help but others are still preferred. |
8/1 |
|
5th 10 (4) |
14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 3 |
8st 7lb |
Made all in workmanlike fashion when 5-6 in a Haydock maiden (1m4f, good) in June on third start; handicap debut (1m4f, AW debut) next time was creditable on form but he hung markedly left; last of 13 with blinkers at Glorious Goodwood (40-1) 13 days ago and now tries cheekpieces. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won under 7lb claimer in four-runner C&D race (good to firm) last July off 1lb higher; Yarmouth second one month ago and should be seriously involved. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 6 (2) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Goes on any ground; didn't run at all badly when fifth of ten at Salisbury (1m4f, good) 19 days ago having been off for eight months (has run well fresh); now 1lb below his last winning mark and considered. |
9/1 |

5th 5 (10) |
23rd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |

Six-time winner but only one of those came in a double-figure field (October 2022); ran well at Newmarket when last seen eight months ago; has gone well fresh in the past; others appeal more all the same. |

12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Not the force of old (one-time useful Flat handicapper) but has made the frame in two Stratford events since rejoining Shark Hanlon, albeit proved no match for a Skelton-trained 11-10 favourite last time; likely to be a similar story today. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 5 |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Has reached the frame in both hurdles starts but beaten 34l and 23l in the process; could be one for handicaps in due course but, in a race lacking depth, he may be capable of hitting the frame again. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Five Flat wins in 2024, culminating in this race (1lb lower today); well suited by ploughing through the mud and best result this term came on soft, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; ran respectably here on good to soft last time and a bold show seems likely if he's in the mud today. |
7/1 |
|
11 (10) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 5f 61y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up at Yarmouth (1m6f) in July; respectable fourth in a Racing League event over 2m on Southwell's AW latest; feasibly handicapped and would enter the reckoning if the ground remains on the soft side. |
16/1 |

4th 2 (8) |
28th Aug 2025 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 3 |

Five wins in a tremendously progressive 2024 on Flat; well suited by ploughing through the mud and his best result this term came on soft ground, when runner-up on penultimate start; beaten 20l when last on his sole AW start in 2023 and others have more compelling claims. |

17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Both wins came in 2022 when trained in France; returns to the Flat for the first time this year after a couple of runs over hurdles; down to a career-low mark and has had wind surgery but others are preferred. |
25/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
2nd Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Fairly useful on the Flat; lightly raced in this sphere and made an encouraging start for his new stable after eight months off when fifth of ten in 2m3f Warwick novice 40 days ago; can take a step forward on his handicap debut with cheekpieces added. |
9/2 |
|
5th 6 |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Had plenty of racing on the Flat and ran to a highly respectable level last year at up to 2m; runner-up in his second run over hurdles at Uttoxeter (good) last summer and could run well if fitness doesn't hold him back after a lengthy absence. |
