5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 215y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Generally disappointing since opening account at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) in February but kept on for third off reduced mark on recent stable debut at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) and drops in grade here; respected. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 34y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice as a 2yo; she has found the going tougher this time around but the handicapper is relenting and this should be more suitable; others still look more appealing; stable runs two. |
20/1 |

7th 2 (3) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Gained two 5f wins (good to firm and AW) last summer but has found things tougher this year; drops in grade after contesting the 3yo Dash at Epsom last time but she carries risks nonetheless. |
6/1 |

11th 16 (2) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Two 5f wins (good to firm and AW) last summer but she has been weighted to her best this year and was well beaten in a Beverley seller (first-time cheekpieces, now discarded) last month; up against it. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Up and down during this 3yo campaign but he was a good third at Musselburgh (5f, good) in April and would have been closer than sixth at Chester (5f, good) recently granted a clear run; could be involved. |
12/1 |
|
6th 8 (10) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
A winner for the Crisfords; nearly won again at Musselburgh in April (5f) but has trailed home last in his two races since, latterly with a tongue-tie and blinkers tried (now removed); drawn wide. |
20/1 |
|
7th 5 (8) |
16th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Landed 6f Chelmsford AW novice for Simon and Ed Crisford as 2yo; shaped encouragingly for new stable when in the frame on Southwell AW and at Musselburgh but raced too freely when last of eight at Redcar (5f) last time; blinkers are reached for (tongue-tie also refitted); could bounce back. |

26th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
The winner of two small-fileld 5f nurseries for Archie Watson last season, one of them at this track; the handicapper has been on top so far this year and a full revival is required. |
16/1 |
|
8th 7 (7) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Lightly raced 3yo who won two nurseries last year and is below his last winning mark; Windsor last month was a step back in the right direction but he needs another today if he's to be a serious force. |
12/1 |
|
7th 10 (10) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Won two 5f events (including on soft) from final three handicaps for Archie Watson; well held in two runs for new yard and may need more weight off his back; first 6f run since debut. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Immediate progress for the switch to nurseries (after being gelded) when winning at Leicester (5f) and Southwell (6f); the handicapper has attempted to thwart that momentum but he still ran solidly behind a well-handicapped rival at Chelmsford (7f; 11-2) latest; 2lb higher again and back in trip. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 3 (5) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won his first two nurseries (5f/6f, good/AW) but he's taken backward steps in last two starts and was beaten around 8l at Redcar (6f, good to soft) last week; the slow ground may have been an issue but he needs to resume his progress at this new trip. |
12/1 |
|
4 (8) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won first two nursery starts (5f/6f, good/AW) and didn't run badly when fourth of seven at Chelmsford (5f, AW) last time; needs something extra today but that can't be ruled out; unproven on slow ground. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Won his first two nurseries on turf in July (the second in a match) and best subsequent effort when promoted to third over C&D last month; finished last of eight at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) ten days ago, though, and is already due another 3lb drop. |
16/1 |
|
1 (8) |
14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a nursery on his turf/handicap debut at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) in July with first-time visor (retained since) and followed up in a match at Bath (5f, firm) seven days later; has not been in the same form in his three starts since and still to prove he is as effective on AW. |
6/1 |
|
2 (6) |
27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had plausible excuses in Class 5 the last twice, hindered by wide trip back on AW latest; may be better judged on July turf wins that give him a 2-2 record in Class 6; possibilities returned to this level. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Broadly progressive gelding who has form figures of 11127 in turf handicaps, the latest effort best forgiven (met trouble); ran well in a competitive field over C&D the time before; still 9lb above last winning mark but Harry Vigors takes off a useful 5lb; in the mix. |
8/1 |
|
7th 6 (7) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Made it 3-3 in turf handicaps when overcoming trouble to win a shade cosily at York in May and it was a good second of 17 in valuable event at Goodwood (also 7f, good) ten days later; still progressing and he holds leading claims again. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 15 (5) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Overcame trouble to win a shade cosily under Saffie Osborne at York (7f, good) last week, taking his record in turf handicaps to 3-3 and record since upped to 7f to 2-2; may well show further progress and defy another rise in the weights; respected. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Never dangerous but did keep on steadily for fourth over C&D (good ground) four weeks ago; something to prove on slower than good. |
8/1 |
|
4th 11 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Three 5f wins on AW for previous yards; ran well for a long way over C&D in May on debut for this stable and faced a tough task at Epsom's Derby meeting; couldn't dismiss from his handy draw. |
20/1 |
|
15th 9 (10) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Three 5f wins on AW for previous yards, most recently in February, but treading water in that sphere since; ran well for a long way at Chester (5f, good) in May for new trainer but has more on his plate in this company. |
20/1 |
