1st 1 (5) |
17th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Beaten joint-favourite or favourite in four of five starts for the yard, finding the first two stronger when upped to 1m6f at Ascot in July and kept to 1m4f since, looking unsuited by the undulations at Epsom recently when fourth of 14; not dismissed back on a more conventional track. |
5/2 |

4th 6 (9) |
31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Beaten at 7-2 or shorter in four handicap runs for William Haggas this year, showing his best form when third at Ayr (1m5f, soft) in June; not quite so good on faster ground twice since but not inconceivable there is a bigger run lurking and Henry Callan is a good booking; key player. |

5th 6 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
5yo now who won for Sean Woods on belated debut last July; no joy in his seven races since, three for this yard, but he kept on well for a good third of 12 in a slowly run race at Ayr (upped markedly to 1m5f, soft) in June and may well have been stretched by 1m6f when performing respectably at Ascot (good to firm; made most) three weeks ago; firmly in the mix. |

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. |

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. |
20/1 |

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. |

11th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Unplaced in nine starts and only marginal improvement dropped to this level when fourth of seven at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) last month (third has won since); needs to improve for the new surface. |
9/1 |
|
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. |

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 |

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. |
