6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time C&D winner who's not well drawn for one happiest on the sharp end; resumed in good form, with two solid efforts over 1m, but has never won off a mark this high and isn't improving at his age. |
12/1 |

4th 4 (6) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Five-time Kempton winner who boasts a consistent record round here too; solid comeback from over three months off over C&D last month and is well drawn for one happiest on the sharp end but has never won off a mark this high. |
5/1 |

3rd 3 (9) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Multiple AW winner, including C&D, but yet to win off a mark this high; creditable effort at Kempton (7f; Class 4) when last seen in December; could prove vulnerable at this level once again. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Four wins this year and he has found another burst of improvement for the addition of cheekpieces, winning 1m handicaps at Pontefract and Musselburgh either side of a C&D second (behind Arctician); another 3lb higher but should make a bold bid. |
7/2 |

3 (7) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
A three-time 1m winner in 2025 who posted another good effort when runner-up in 1m Lingfield handicap 11 days ago; very much one to consider nudged up 1lb. |
9/4 |
|
2nd 7 (1) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
3-18; second of nine at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) last month before winning by a nose at Pontefract (1m, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) 17 days ago; looks a likely player returned to AW following a 1lb rise. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Beat a regular bridesmaid in a three-runner maiden at Brighton (7f, good to firm) last month; probably achieved more when third of seven on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, AW) 17 days ago (runner-up has won since); each-way claims if handling the likely slow ground. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 8 (2) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Beaten a neck over C&D last month before winning a three-runner maiden at Brighton (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago; returns to 1m for his handicap debut and may yet have more to offer. |
7/2 |
|
1 (4) |
19th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Has shown promise all three starts, latterly when inclined to pull hard from a wide stall over 1m at Lingfield (AW); will be happier back down in trip on that evidence and is shortlisted for a yard going well of late. |

3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Unexposed colt who has been runner-up in two starts since returning from an absence, most recently on handicap debut at Epsom (8.5f, good) nine days ago, pulling clear of the rest with the winner; returns to AW and he's a contender off the same mark. |
11/4 |
|
2 (3) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
150,000euros yearling; unexposed colt who showed promise in novice events, including a clear second behind an impressive winner at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) 23 days ago; looks on fair mark now switched to a handicap and he's an interesting contender. |
5/2 |
|
4 (2) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Raced freely on debut last autumn; showed similar form when 3l fourth of 12 at Lingfield (1m, AW) three weeks later; bred to be useful and commands respect after nearly nine months off. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Yet to win and below best on last three starts, including in blinkers last time (cheekpieces now refitted); back up in trip from wide draw with something to prove. |
10/1 |
|
4th 3 (2) |
2nd Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Eight-race maiden who managed only fifth of nine when back in a handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) 12 days ago; drops from Class 4 today but this a competitive Class 5; sports refitted tongue-tie and first-time blinkers for return to 7f; others have more pressing claims. |
16/1 |
|
10 (5) |
20th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Best form was the two runs in Ireland late last year; 0-5 for current yard and only fifth of seven in a 1m handicap before running poorly last week in a 7f novice (tried cheekpieces); effective at 6f but others are safer. |

10st 0lb |
Won his first two starts when trained by Charlie Appleby; absent for 1,374 days prior to his stable debut in January; little to celebrate this year and opposable despite dropping into Class 6 company. |

2nd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Showed promise in three AW novice events when with Andrew Balding; has finished last on both starts for this trainer (1m and 1m3f, both AW); drops another 5lb but we need to see more before he can be recommended. |
33/1 |
|
13th 4 (1) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Showed promise in three AW novices for Andrew Balding last winter including over this C&D, but having been gelded he finished last of seven on stable/handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) 15 days ago; may have needed it, but still has enough to prove. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (8) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Showed plenty in three starts on AW for Andrew Balding, including when third of 12 behind two useful types at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW) in February; bought for 7,500gns since and gelded; hood added for handicap/yard debut; interesting contender. |
