28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt with a last-gasp win in a Wolverhampton handicap (7f, AW; 18-1) last month; 2lb higher back up in trip, but that was a brave success and he showed plenty of promise on turf last season including when fourth in a valuable sales race at Newmarket; respected. |

1st 6 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Not beaten far in a couple of sales races last autumn; not as good in two runs back, getting turned over at odds-on round Redcar before not seeing out 8.6f here early last month, and will need plenty more on this handicap debut. |
12/1 |

4th 6 (11) |
1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Finished second in a Southwell novice last July on only AW start; has since shown decent form in various company at up to 7f on turf, with both blinkers and cheekpieces tried; sets the standard but he was only third at 8-11 at Redcar last time so probably vulnerable again. |

Both wins at 5f on Southwell AW; second at Leicester (6f) before a lesser show here 17 days ago when she got warm before the race; could be given another chance. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |

Both wins at 5f on Southwell AW; has had some excuses this year but she put up a good show at Leicester (6f, good to firm) this month against an unexposed sprinter and this easier test at 6f can suit; should go well. |

Weighted to turn the tables on Life After Love, who beat her a short head over C&D last month; however, over 2l to find with Mademoiselle Belle on her latest run (at Newcastle) and she's now 0-7. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Best of her three runs since going handicapping when dropped back to 5f at Southwell last week, finishing short-head second of seven (first two 7l clear of the rest); up 2lb but a contender. |
2/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
7th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
No better than sixth in her two handicaps but only beaten 2.5l on the former occasion and the latest wasn't as bad as the distance beaten suggests; cheekpieces left off now back at 5f; Sean Levey a positive booking for the stable. |

9st 9lb |
Won 5f novice events at Carlisle and Newcastle this summer before a fine third in the Super Sprint at Newbury (5f, good); highly tried since and today's return to 5f should be in his favour; not ruled out now making his nursery debut. |
5/1 |

6 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Ran well in the Super Sprint at Newbury during his spell over 5f; not disgraced when favourite for 6f sales race at Newmarket (good to firm) most recently, albeit failed to improve for the new trip. |
16/1 |
|
1 (20) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Found himself isolated from the main action when disappointing in a Group 3 at Goodwood; had been nicely progressive and was conceding weight to the front two (including Windsor Castle winner Havana Hurricane) when third in the Super Sprint at Newbury despite losing his focus and wandering when hitting the front; strong chance, provided he gets home over 6f (kept to 5f thus far). |

Two runner-up finishes for his new yard prior to scrambling home in a 6f handicap at Lingfield (AW) 16 days ago; 4lb rise not obviously generous but the new cheekpieces could help; promise on good to soft as a 2yo. |
9/2 |

1st 6 (5) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Started nurseries on an unrealistic mark for Richard Hannon but has found his level again now, narrowly being denied off 1lb lower last time (best of the group that started out racing near side at Nottingham); this half-brother to a C&D winner is shortlisted. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
21st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Won a Newmarket novice (6f, good) last May, his third start, but beaten 11 times since including all four runs for John Butler; his penultimate second at Thirsk was a good run though and when down the field at York last time it was a Class 4; not out of it. |

13th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Maiden who has been disappointing since finishing second in a 6f sales race at Newmarket a year ago and was no match for the winner when second in a small field three weeks back (5f; second run in blinkers); makes handicap debut on ninth career start. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (1) |
22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Seven-race maiden whose best effort came when a 1l second of 20 in a sales race at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last August; not yet replicated that form since and left the impression he may be happier back over 6f when third at Nottingham (5f, good to firm; first-time blinkers) 18 days ago. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 (8) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 8y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Second of 20 in a sales race at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last August is his clear standout effort and a repeat would make him hard to beat; suffered heavy defeats in his next two starts but he returned after wind surgery with a respectable fourth at Brighton two weeks ago; needs to build on that but blinkers could help and he's still lightly raced; respected. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
50,000gns yearling; at 4-1 he was noticeably short in the betting at Doncaster (7f, good) and was clear of the fifth; that form has been franked and he showed enough pace to believe he'll cope with 6f. |

3 (11) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |

50,000gns yearling; half-brother to six winners including Sky Defender (7f-1m4f including 2yo; RPR 111), Afandem (5f-6f including 2yo Group 3; 107) and Sudden Ambush (1m; 90); dam 6f AW 2yo winner (76); plenty to like on paper and he needs a close look on debut. |

Came good with two AW wins in April (5f/6f) but seemed quickly to go off the boil in June; further progress is not yet out of the question but he needs a two-month break to have done him good. |
4/1 |

10th 1 (5) |
16th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
String of solid efforts in the tongue-tie/cheekpieces combination prior to a poor one last time; that came on turf, though, and he'll be happier back on the AW and over an easy 6f, plus he's well drawn for one happiest up front for a yard in fine form of late. |
4/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |

9st 3lb |
Won three times at two, including at Nottingham (6f, good to soft) off 3lb higher in October; he's performed below that level in his three outings this year but latest fifth over 5f here was a bit better and he should be suited by the return to 6f; no shock were he to bounce back to form with a bang. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |

Busy spell as a juvenile included wins in Brighton maiden (5.5f) and course nursery (5f, again good to firm); also stays 6f and landed series final at Nottingham (good to soft) in October; more exposed than most of these and finished last on his reappearance, however; drops back down in grade. |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made quite promising seasonal/handicap debut when fourth at Kempton (7f, AW) last month and arguably ran better than eventual 13l defeat suggests when a weakening sixth at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; eased in grade with Billy Loughnane booked here; worth a second look. |
5/1 |
|
6th 8 (3) |
20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Successful AW debut as 2yo but was up against it in a sales race next time (sole turf run); back on the AW since, running well in a 7f Chelmsford novice on final 2yo start and doing as well as could be expected on his recent belated reappearance; has a surface query back on turf but should have some potential off this mark. |
10/1 |

4th 4 (1) |
5th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
His two runs over 7f on Polytrack last year were much better than one over 6f on turf, the latest when second of 11 in a Chelmsford novice in September (form worked out well); gelded since and worth a second look on handicap debut after 321 days off. |

The Bath maiden (5.3f, firm) he won on debut in August wasn't an especially strong event but he was well on top at the finish; failed to build on it in a sales race at Newmarket one week later but he was sent off the 7-2 second favourite and wasn't well drawn; capable of better and should be involved despite a penalty and a wide draw. |

Off the mark at the sixth attempt at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in February and returned to form with a gutsy handicap win at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month; bettered that form when fourth of 11 in 7f 3yo handicap at the Newmarket July meeting and the form-figures of the four who have run out of that race since are 1113; considered under Buick. |

Off the mark at the sixth attempt at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in February and returned to form with a gutsy handicap win at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month, keeping on well; pulled hard and weakened over 7f two starts ago but she might have potential at this trip if she settles. |

Application of headgear yielded an upturn in fortunes but she was still springing a surprise when winning the 20-runner £100,000 Tattersalls Somerville Auction at Newmarket (6f; 33-1) in August; failed to stay 7f in Sweden (fourth) latest; current mark looks perfectly fair if taking to AW. |

Ran well for second at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month; respectable fourth of 14 at York (6f, good) since but she's yet to win from a mark in the 80s. |
