16th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |

Two non-completions over hurdles; placed on the AW last month but over 1m and at a very modest level. |

14th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Attracted support and ran a better race when a front-running third of seven over C&D ten days ago (Dash Power second); one to consider with a new visor replacing blinkers |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden who was beaten a head when 2-7 in a novice at Bath (1m2f, good to soft) last month; third of six in a handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, good) next time but he was below his best at Nottingham (8.5f, good; first-time cheekpieces) eight days ago; steps back up trip with headgear removed for his AW debut. |
7/2 |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Six-race maiden who was turned over at 2-7 in a novice at Bath (1m2f, good to soft) two starts ago, when beaten into second; however, he's since been third of six in a handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, good) and that form gives him leading claims; it's possible first-time cheekpieces will be a plus. |
7/2 |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced 3yo with some good efforts in novice and maiden events (1m and 1m2f), just run out of a Bath event (good to soft) 19 days ago; probably needs a bit more off this mark now handicapping but that's possible. |

7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up over about 1m2f on four of eight starts last year, including in two handicaps and one was at this track; disappointing when 4-7 in a novice event on reappearance but back-to-form fourth of 14 in 1m2f handicap at Newbury on latest start; place claims again and cheekpieces are added. |
9/2 |
|
4th 9 (7) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up over about 1m2f on four of eight starts last year, including in two handicaps; close third on reappearance at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in early March but that was when 4-7 in a novice event and that disappointment heightens the concern over his lingering maiden status. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 4 (8) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Well beaten here on his debut last April but he was runner-up on four occasions last year at around 1m2f; gelded since last seen 145 days ago and holds good claims with his stable going well. |

2nd 9 (9) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Won first two starts for this yard (1m2f/1m4f) last September; had a tough first handicap assignment and he may have found it all a bit much; sent off favourite for return at Newmarket 12 days ago and was bang there over 2f out before weakening (finished behind Ernst Blofeld); dropped 3lb and reunited with Rossa Ryan; looks set to leave that run behind. |
9/1 |
|
7th 1 (5) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Promising third on last May's debut for Andrew Oliver then won first two starts for this yard, novices at Goodwood (1m2f, heavy) and Lingfield (1m4f, AW) in September; slightly underwhelmed with midfield finish in November handicap (1m4f, heavy) next time but retains bundles of potential ahead of this reappearance. |
5/1 |
|
1 (8) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Finished third of ten behind Scandinavia on his Navan debut (1m2f, good) in May and made a successful debut for this yard at Goodwood (1m2f, heavy; 10-11) three weeks ago; half-brother to a couple of AW winners and strong claims under his penalty. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Fair form all five starts but well held in his two handicaps (1m2f) and may not yet have come far enough down the weights. |
25/1 |
|
8th 2 (4) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has shown fair form to date, posting a respectable fourth of nine on his handicap debut at Sandown (1m2f) in September; he may do better still on his seasonal return. |

29th Jan 2026 Standard 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gelded before landing a handicap here over 1m5f in November; good places at Lingfield in two of his three starts since, bouncing back to be beaten a head over this trip in first-time cheekpieces 22 days ago; now 2lb higher but he should have more to offer over this far. |
7/4 |

9th 7 (4) |
30th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Well held at big prices in three novice events (1m2f/1m4f) but he shaped like a stayer when third of five at Epsom last month and is a possible improver now upped to 1m6f on handicap debut; needs watching in the market. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Seven-race maiden but he finished well to go very close over C&D (11-2) in January; only 1lb higher after a short break and he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
14th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two fair efforts over 1m since handicapping, including when fourth of ten over C&D in November; form dipped slightly at Lingfield last time but he's not fully exposed and far from ruled out. |
4/1 |
|
8 (5) |
23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown nothing in either start, including when tailed off behind Master Vintner at Goodwood (1m2f, heavy; 300-1) three weeks ago. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Had no answer when the heavily backed favourite loomed large over 1m here two weeks ago but she was attempting to give him a stone and did well to stick on for second; fancied to cope with this drop in trip. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 3 (3) |
11th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
She made a pleasing start to her career when running on well for fifth at Lingfield (1m AW) last August, recording the fastest final-furlong split; unable to build on it at Goodwood one month later but that was 1m2f on heavy ground; still has potential and she returns to action in an ordinary maiden. |
4/1 |
