3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Consistent this year and recorded a clearcut win at Lingfield (7f, good) returned to turf last time but everything went his way (made all against favoured near rail); no certainty to defy a 6lb rise. |
10/1 |

1st 3 (8) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Races mainly on AW where he has six wins; 1-15 in this sphere and may be worth waiting until he returns to AW. |

3rd 3 (7) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Consistent spell under Ryan Kavanagh during the winter but resumes from a short break still on a career-high mark as a result (3lb above his highest successful rating); more likely than most to give his running, though, possibly from the front again. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Win (off 2lb lower last August) and two seconds to his name from four runs over C&D; pulled hard and didn't see it out over 1m here last time, and this hold-up performer should fare better as long as it doesn't become tactical. |
5/1 |

8th 2 (6) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 216y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won here (7f, good to firm) last August and made an encouraging reappearance when fifth of 14 at Kempton (7f, AW) last month; does stay this far but could do with the ground drying out. |
10/1 |
|
5th 12 (1) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time Tapeta winner who resumes from eight months off on a career-high mark; gone well fresh before but is used to plying his trade in lesser company and may need some help from the handicapper. |

15th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins in 7f classified events last month; runner-up in his last two completed starts; unseated rider early at Chester on Friday; each-way shout but hardly an unknown quantity. |
8/1 |
|
10 (7) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Fourth, nearest at the finish, to Hallowed Time in this last year; back with James Owen again and arrives in the midst of a productive spell, recent second-place finishes (visored) to add to earlier wins at Yarmouth and Brighton (7f); can often miss the break though, which isn't ideal at Chester. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Nine of his ten wins have been on turf and he came from off the pace when good second off this mark at Brighton (6f; first-time visor) last month; has claims if he can repeat that form but he's 1-12 on AW and that success was in a claimer. |

4th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
Recorded the 18th win of his long career when leading late over C&D in February (for Myla Coppins); ran well behind a thriving rival at Lingfield next time but he failed to fire over C&D a fortnight ago (finished behind Coloane); he has bounced back from quiet runs before so can't be ruled out. |
6/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
18th success of his long career when getting the better of Antiquity (winner since and runs in the 6.00) over C&D last month; bumped into an in-form opponent at Lingfield two weeks ago (7f; blinkered first time); another 2lb rise is not ideal but he is likely to give his running. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
5th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Well into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of enthusiasm and ran on well to beat a subsequent winner (Age Of Time third) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) three weeks ago, his 18th success; a 2lb rise not excessive but late in the day to be giving blinkers a go (has run well in new headgear before). |

14th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Two AW wins for this yard last year but has yet to look as effective on turf (0-6); well beaten on comeback at Lingfield (7f, good). |
13/2 |
|
6th 5 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice on AW for this yard last year; yet to be placed from five runs on turf and runs off his highest mark; may be better for the run. |
5/1 |
|
5 (6) |
15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made a winning stable debut at Wolverhampton in July (7f); two solid efforts have followed and the return of cheekpieces could help squeeze out the requisite improvement. |
9/2 |
