16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Infrequent winner; did score over C&D last July off a 3lb higher mark though and his latest Ffos Las second (7.3f, good) was a sound run; each-way shout. |
7/1 |

2nd 5 (7) |
30th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Infrequent winner who was again turned over as favourite when never happy behind Prince Ali last time; wants a good test over this trip these days and others make greater appeal. |

Generally consistent but doesn't win too often; hasn't been far away of late and regularly makes the frame; has place claims. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Failed to win for Archie Watson this summer and she finished down the field on her first two runs for this stable; latest second at Wolverhampton was better but she was still well behind the easy winner; more needed tonight. |
8/1 |

16th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

1-21; continues to slide down the weights but well held in both starts on turf since joining this yard; opposable. |
8/1 |

2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Sole success came at Doncaster in June 2024 when trained by Chris Dwyer; had no joy in five starts for Archie Watson this year and subsequently sold for 1,000gns last month; headgear removed and made little impression when sixth of nine on stable debut here (7f, good) eight days ago; steps back in trip and best watched. |

29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Placed in sole 1m attempt, raced over shorter otherwise; ran respectably last time in a Leicester classified event he'd landed 12 months earlier; hasn't won a handicap since 2023. |
13/2 |

3rd 6 (13) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
All five wins have been on turf and latest was in this race last year; his form nosedived at Doncaster last month but he has a striking record at this track and is versatile ground-wise; big player if he can bounce back. |
13/2 |
|
11th 12 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
All five wins have been on turf, the last three over this trip; only 2lb higher than for his latest success (June 2025) and he reappeared with a promising effort over 6f at Leicester (good to firm) last month; looks interesting on this step back up in trip and he's versatile ground-wise. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Regressive maiden (5f-7f) who's been tried in two forms of headgear; runs in his first classified, he usually over-races and can miss the kick, so will never come without risk. |
12/1 |

6th 12 (11) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Regressive maiden (5f-7f) who's been tried in two forms of headgear; pulled hard and hit traffic on his 6f comeback here but he usually over-races and can miss the kick, so will never come without risk. |
14/1 |

10th 8 (7) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
0-18, with his solitary second over 7f on soft; ended 2025 with two respectable thirds in October, including over 7f here on good to firm, but first time out has seen two of his best shows, so he needs a second look today. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Struggled at big prices in three qualifying runs and same story in two handicaps (1m/7f, good) in August; still early days but she needs a transformation on this switch to AW. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Struggled at big prices in three qualifying runs and same story on handicap debut at Windsor (1m, good) three weeks ago; still early days but she needs a transformation on this drop back in trip; cheekpieces added. |

4th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Has weak claims on form but is related to winners for her stable and may do better now handicapping; heed the market signals. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring at Chepstow (7f, good) in August; got pestered for the lead when down the field at Wolverhampton next time, but she's hard to predict and this looks tough from a wide draw. |
10/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Well handicapped on C&D win (good to soft) last summer but that is her only success from 18 starts and she's finished down the field in five runs this season; others preferred. |

1st Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
This veteran hasn't tasted success for nearly three years; he ran okay over C&D two starts ago and when sixth at Ffos Las last week but more is needed. |
11/1 |
|
6th 6 (4) |
23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Having his 105th career start and the last of his eight wins was in August 2023; beaten 4.5l into third at Bath last time and others appeal more. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 11 (1) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Has plenty of C&D form to his name, including two wins, but his losing run is approaching three years; place claims but likely vulnerable for win purposes. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |

Had a near-miss in a Kempton handicap (7f, AW) last January but he's struggled since then and is now 0-14. |

30th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |

Drawn wide last time at Kempton but was tailed off and that made it 0-13; wouldn't be the obvious answer. |
