7th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Proved resurgent with close third at Newcastle most recently; this five-time AW scorer remains well treated on best form; in the mix. |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Conditions no problem but only ninth behind a couple of these over C&D last week and he'll be 2lb lower from the weekend; type to come good again soon. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

C&D win 12 months ago came off an 8lb higher mark; pick of this summer's form gives him claims but he has suffered heavy defeats on his last three starts; too much to prove for now. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Goes well around a left-hand bend; unlikely to have things his own way up front but he has the abiliity to win races off this mark. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 21y Class 5 |

Kept busy through the winter (won over 5f at Wolverhampton) but holding his form well, challenging wide when fifth of 11 in 5f Chester handicap nine days ago; considered. |

Zipped around Wolverhampton when recording a couple of impressive 5f wins this winter so this track should suit; two solid placed efforts since returned to turf; might find a few better treated though. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 5f 21y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Bagged the favoured far rail to take a Redcar classified (5f; 3-1) for the second year in succession latest; hasn't had many opportunities on AW (0-3) and arrives in better form than most, but this is slightly tougher from her revised mark. |
4/1 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won this race a year ago and has made the frame in handicaps on her last four appearances; about 1l behind Gwen Tennyson at Catterick (5f, good to firm) on Tuesday and 2lb worse off with her today but still likely to be in the shake-up. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 3 (1) |
4th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Her 23 starts have yielded just one win (last August) but she's edged back down the weights and was a head second of six at Ripon (5f, good to firm) last Monday; could be bang there today off the same mark. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Both wins came in 0-50 classified events in the summer of 2024, including one over C&D; not much to shout about over the past year, though, despite a declining mark; needs the visor to help stop the slide. |
12/1 |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Won twice over 5f in the summer of 2024, including at this track; ran well on her seasonal return last April but it has been downhill ever since; 6f a query too. |
20/1 |

6th 10 (4) |
22nd Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Dual classified winner on a sound surface at 5f in 2024; went close in C&D handicap (good) on her comeback last term and not much went right in that same race on her reappearance a fortnight ago; drawn on the wing when down the field in this race last year but not without a squeak this time. |

Better strike-rate on turf than AW and beaten in a C&D classified on latest AW start; two midfield finishes on turf have followed, the latest on Monday, and others appeal more for win purposes. |

24th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Has been a grand servant to the yard with two of his nine wins coming over C&D; latest success came at Ayr (5f, good to firm) last month and he should not be far away. |
7/1 |

6th 12 (3) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Scored over C&D (fifth course victory) in July and not discredited with fourth of six in 5f classified event at Wolverhampton ten day ago; very much one to consider back here. |

24th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

Her last three wins have all been over C&D but she hasn't been firing recently; the return to this track for the first time this year needs to have an impact. |
16/1 |

11th 13 (12) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Posted a good third over 5f here in June but she's beaten just one rival in two subsequent outings at Hamilton and back here; this course scorer needs to take a big step forward. |
20/1 |

7th 7 (7) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Dual C&D winner who had a near-miss at Wetherby (5.5f) last month but she failed to beat a rival at Hamilton last time; handles most ground but has a bit to prove again after that last run and others are more solid. |

13th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |

Contrasting efforts over C&D since returning from layoff and switched to handicaps, finishing third then well held; may progress if rebound materialises. |
12/1 |

8 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Unexposed after just four runs; looked green as a 2yo and appeared a much improved model when third of eight over C&D (good ground) 18 days ago, fading after eight months off; the hood (omitted on return) goes back on today; in good hands and has far more potential than most of today's rivals. |
