19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Headstrong sort but he's taken his form up a notch since cheekpieces went on, scoring at Pontefract (1m) in June before beaten a nose when a clear second at Doncaster (1m) since having hung badly left in front; not the easiest of rides but a player once more here. |
7/4 |

2nd 1 (4) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 213y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Runner-up at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last month then went one better in commanding style in first-time cheekpieces at Pontefract (1m, good); could have more to offer in the headgear; strong claims under 5lb penalty. |
7/2 |

1st 1 (4) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Gained both wins last August but made the frame on last three outings; carries his head high, including in a duel at Musselburgh last time, and cheekpieces are enlisted today. |

Limited on the Flat and big prices when tailed off on both hurdle starts to date; safe to rule out. |

3rd 4 (7) |
5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
She should be well handicapped now and her last two runs have both been respectable; cheekpieces tried last time are now replaced by first-time blinkers; one to consider. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 4 (1) |
30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 21y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
With Ian Williams for last two outings, finding 7f too sharp on first occasion and maybe 1m3f too far on second; now she splits the difference and is very well handicapped judged on plenty of form, including a 1m2f win last June; could be dangerous in first-time headgear. |
5/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ran encouragingly over C&D on final start during brief spell with Thomas Faulkner and found 7f too sharp on debut for Ian Williams; very well handicapped on best form and looks interesting back up in trip. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden; 1m2f may have stretched her on last two starts but connections also now reach for first-time headgear; 10lb lower than on reappearance and a form case can be made. |
10/1 |
|
4 (1) |
13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Consistent at 7f to about 1m when the ground has been good or quicker; good to soft probably didn't help when upped to 1m2f at Newmarket last month when never in contention so the stamina question remains unresolved. |
7/1 |
|
3 (6) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Mixed form since a promising second on debut last summer, and she faded into third when odds-on for maiden at Ripon (1m, good) 12 days ago; now moves up in distance and she's not sure to stay judged on her pedigree. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
11-race maiden; having only his second run on the AW (fair effort on first occasion) and his first run at beyond 1m2f so has plenty to prove. |
16/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Runner-up twice at this venue (including this trip) last term; needs to be in better form than he was at Beverley last week (seventh of nine) but it's possible that refitted blinkers will give him a lift. |
7/1 |
|
7th 5 (8) |
23rd Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Ten-race maiden who has frame possibilities on several pieces of form, including a couple of second-place finishes at Musselburgh last term and fourth-place finish on AW reappearance. |

24th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Sole turf success came at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in August; he is now 16lb higher after a productive spell on AW and finished 12l adrift when returned to turf over C&D last month; down the list despite his yard being in fine form. |
33/1 |
|
8th 10 (1) |
30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three 1m wins on Southwell AW this year; has also won on turf but he's 15lb higher than when last seen on grass in the autumn so needs to show his form on this surface can keep pace with the AW improvement. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Record over C&D currently reads 22115112; didn't look to have any excuses in a race run to suit here three weeks ago and it's possible he's reached his ceiling mark now, but he's ultra consistent and looks set to get involved once again. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed 20-race maiden; this winter's AW form brings her into the reckoning but she has been well beaten in two runs back on turf. |
16/1 |
|
6th 5 (3) |
10th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 6 |
10st 9lb |
0-19; runner-up twice in 7f AW handicaps in late 2025 but this year's efforts leave her with a point to prove. |
14/1 |
|
9th 9 (5) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Twice runner-up off a higher mark at Newcastle (7f, AW) late last year, but now 0-18; others make greater appeal. |
20/1 |
