17th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Record of 0-4 this term for new yard but was placed under Shay Halton at Ripon on penultimate start and latest race didn't pan out favourably; has slipped to an attractive mark. |
10/1 |

8 (13) |
4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Has dropped 11lb below his last winning mark but that was from August 2023; third at Ripon ten days ago was his best result this term but he needs much better than that form if he's to turn the tables on Spartan Times. |
16/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Has dropped 11lb below his last winning mark, but his abbreviated career since the start of last year (including two starts for this yard) suggests he hasn't been easy to train; needs the switch to a visor to help him get back on track. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Low-grade Flat performer who joined this yard for £5,000; 25-1 and tailed off in a good-ground maiden at Hexham. |
14/1 |
|
6th 2 |
2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
On a long losing run on the Flat but he ran creditably when last seen, finishing second at Redcar (1m2f, good; final outing for Tim Easterby) in October; changed hands for £5,000 soon after; going hurdling rather late but not without hope. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has done his winning at 7f-1m but recent form features two encouraging efforts over 1m2f (turf/AW); long losing spell remains a cause for concern, however. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (4) |
26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Six-time winner but his last success was in August 2022; on much reduced mark and was creditable third at Beverley (1m2f; tongue-tie added) in July but he was beaten 13l at Ripon last time and that took his losing run to 20; down the list. |
12/1 |
|
4 (6) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 13lb |
Much lower in the weights than for the latest of five wins in 2022 and ran well when third of 14 behind a couple of dead-heaters (including Star Start) at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last time; each-way claims again despite a losing run of 19. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins last season, the first a dead-heat over C&D in July (good to firm); rather patchy form this season, best run when third at Pontefract in April (1m, good); a possible on second run back after wind op. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Had wind surgery (his third) since last run; form at Pontefract features a success last August (off 2lb higher; one of three wins under Charli Parker) and best effort this season; record of 0-19 when racing above Class 6 is the negative. |
10/1 |
|
8th 8 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
A dual 1m2f scorer in 2025; back to form when third of nine in 1m Pontefract handicap ten days ago so ought to be thereabouts eased 1lb. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Productive on Flat and over hurdles since early last summer; creditable second, one place in front of L'Eagle Aid who admittedly came from a poorer position, over C&D most recently; major contender. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 6 (1) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Went up 29lb for his four wins last season; wasn't at his best on first Flat run this year when last of five at Ripon (had been running well over hurdles); bit to prove. |
9/1 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
28th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Notched four Flat wins last year, including over 1m3f here on good; returned from a break to win over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m, good) this month; only a fair fourth at Aintree since but still respected back on the Flat. |

10st 11lb |
Won on Jersey and Chepstow (both 1m2f, good) under Brodie Hampson earlier in the year, but finished behind three of these at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last month; needs to bounce back from that. |
7/1 |

4 (5) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Won in Jersey in April and followed up with a last-gasp verdict at Chepstow (1m2f, good); just 2lb higher here. |

1st 4 (4) |
16th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
11st 0lb |
Back on the mainland after game win under Brodie Hampson in Jersey (1m2f, good) in April; this race is almost certainly stronger but he's still on a workable mark and probably won't be far away; cheekpieces refitted. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won over hurdles for Gordon Elliott in Ireland last summer but in poor form over hurdles and on the Flat for Tracy Leeson this year; makes debut for latest new stable with huge amount to prove; blinkers removed. |
33/1 |
|
8 (10) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
10st 8lb |
Has been poor under both codes since his sole success over hurdles in Ireland a year ago; blinkers will need to have a dramatic effect. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
1m4f wins at Doncaster (good) and here (good to firm) for new yard this summer; he has come up short in stronger company on his last two starts but holds good claims back in a Class 6. |
9/4 |
|
7th 14 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
2-6 for this yard but both wins were at 1m4f at Class 6 level; looks worth taking on, for all that his last race on the AW didn't go entirely to plan. |
20/1 |
|
5th 11 |
29th May 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
10st 8lb
|
Has made a bright start for his current yard and made it two wins from his last three runs in 1m4f handicap at Beverley two days ago; also took this in 2024, so he's a player under a 4lb penalty. |

18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
10lb out of the weights and has been tailed off too many times for comfort this year; first-time blinkers need to give him an elephantine boost. |
150/1 |
|
7th 7 (3) |
9th Sep 2025 Good 1m 5f 192y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Yet to make the frame in 11 starts and faces a tough task from 9lb 'wrong'; first go beyond 1m4f and stamina reserves are questionable on pedigree; better to look elsewhere. |
50/1 |
|
10 (8) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 190y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Out of the frame in all ten starts and finished behind a few of these when running poorly in his last two outings; look elsewhere. |
