3rd 3 (2) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
5yo now who won for Sean Woods on belated debut last July; no joy since but he kept on well for a good third of 12 off this mark at Ayr (upped markedly to 1m5f, soft) three weeks ago on second start for new yard, suggesting potential over staying trips; probably acts on good to firm; one to note. |

3rd 9 (6) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 26y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
5yo who won for Sean Woods on belated debut last July; mixed results across his five starts since and he's unraced beyond 1m2f, but he stumbled leaving the stalls when mid-division on last month's stable and seasonal debut at Redcar, and things could click at some point; not written off. |
7/1 |

6th 9 (5) |
25th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Low-mileage 5yo who won for Sean Woods on his belated debut at Thirsk (1m, good) last July; not blatantly well treated on the balance of his form (including 1m2f/1m1f handicaps) but now makes his debut for a top trainer having changed hands for 65,000gns; has to be of strong interest. |

2nd 2 (7) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Impressed when winning two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth (7f/1m) just over a year apart; too keen when sixth to Zeus Olympios in 1m Group races at Haydock (led) and Newmarket (held up) in the autumn; has switched from Tom Dascombe to Andrew Balding ahead of reappearance (same owners); also gelded which could help to settle him down; Double Rush's exploits this spring underline the yard's prowess with new recruits and this one has similar potential. |
3/1 |

6th 6 (5) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Unbeaten in two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth just over a year apart, impressing with the way he drew clear late on over 1m in August; up in grade but went off too hard when fading to finish sixth behind Zeus Olympios in Haydock Group 3 (1m, good) three weeks ago; bundles to find but he's the type to run above himself on a track that might favour speed; hood added. |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Unbeaten in two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth just over a year apart, impressing with the way he drew clear late on over 1m on return three weeks ago; definitely more to come but this requires a fairly big chunk of improvement; the ground is almost certain to be slower this time but the same connections' useful half-brother Auld Toon Loon is very much at home on good or softer. |

23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Seven-race maiden who has finished a tailed-off ninth in his four handicaps (6f-9.4f) and all of those runs have been on AW; opposable. |
25/1 |
|
9th 8 (1) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Showed a little promise when with Jane Chapple-Hyam, but rather lost his way and was sold for 3,000gns in October; well beaten on both starts for new yard (gelded after first of them); cheekpieces now tried. |
33/1 |
|
9th 5 (9) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't progress for Jane Chapple-Hyam and he was a well-beaten 50-1 shot on his stable debut in December (6f); gelded since; market should guide. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Twice tailed off but improved in his other three races, always prominent when off the mark by a neck in ten-runner handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago; wore cheekpieces last four starts; up 4lb today but he found more when challenged last time and there may have been more in the tank. |
5/1 |

24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has been all or nothing in four starts, two tailed-off runs mixed in with good efforts in a Windsor novice in June and again on handicap debut when third at that track (also 1m, good; 33-1) 16 days ago; some consistency wouldn't go amiss but he finished it off strongly last time and looks interesting going up in trip. |

4th 4 (1) |
15th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Eight-race maiden who has been well beaten in four handicaps this year (1m-1m4f); drops into classified company for the first time but others are preferred. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (5) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well beaten in three handicaps this season (1m-1m4f) and has now been unplaced all seven starts; needs to learn to settle better; difficult to enthuse over. |
33/1 |
|
9th 6 (7) |
28th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Unexposed 4yo but he's not finished closer than 6l to a winner and was a remote seventh over C&D (good) two weeks ago; dropped another 3lb but he's hard to fancy. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Struggled in his three qualifying runs (1m2f/1m) and remote with headgear in his two handicaps (1m4f/1m2f), despite starting co-favourite on the Newcastle Tapeta last time; no form claims yet. |
14/1 |
|
13th 10 (10) |
30th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Struggled in three qualifying runs (1m2f/1m) and it was the same story on handicap debut at Brighton (1m4f, soft; first-time cheekpieces) 15 days ago; drops back in trip with the visor replacing cheekpieces. |
25/1 |

8 (7) |
15th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Struggled in his three qualifying runs (1m2f/1m) but he now goes handicapping with headgear added and this unexposed 3yo is a possible improver at this new trip; needs close look in market. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 3y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Last of 13 on debut last September when trained in France; needs to show massive improvement to figure on British/stable debut. |
