12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Landed 7f novice at Lingfield on his debut in September but he has failed to beat a rival in both subsequent starts, going freely when last of six on his handicap debut at Newmarket (7f) four weeks ago. Hood is now reached for. |
20/1 |

6th 3 (5) |
15th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Two runs last September, belying 25-1 odds when quite impressive over 7f on Lingfield AW; had a much stiffer task at Epsom after (about 1m, good), albeit ran as well as could have been expected in a three-runner conditions race; should have some handicap potential off his opening mark. |
7/1 |

Belied market weakness with promising debut in Lingfield contest (7f, AW) and appeared to win with something left up his sleeve; gave the impression he'll stay this longer trip; open to progress. |

9st 2lb |
Didn't have to improve on his 2yo form to win a novice at Lingfield (1m, AW) in February; beaten in three handicaps since but he is slipping down the weights. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (8) |
5th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Made a successful return in an uncompetitive Lingfield novice (1m, Polytrack) in February, but not built on it in two handicaps on turf/Tapeta since; bit more needed back down in trip. |
7/1 |

5th 10 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
May not have achieved that much when justifying odds of 1-2 in a Lingfield novice (1m, AW; first start since being gelded) in February and was well beaten on handicap debut at Southwell (1m, AW) in April; this is only his second start on turf, but other look more compelling. |

31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Better for a visor going on the last twice, despite being inclined to pull hard in it; much will hinge on how he settles over today's more demanding 1m switched to cheekpieces. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
10th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Made the breakthrough with a visor added when finishing well to land a Catterick handicap (7f, good to firm; 18-1) last month; up 3lb but he still looks feasibly treated on that latest form and is open to more progress back up in trip; key player. |

Ex-John Ryan; yet to hit top form for new yard, but his handicap mark has dropped significantly; could go well with a visor on for first time. |

9st 4lb |
Wore cheekpieces last three outings, for a rallying second at Sandown (1m2f, good/good to firm) on last two occasions; better is needed but he shapes as if new trip is well worth a go. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 6 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Wore cheekpieces last two outings and latest brought easily his best show as a 3yo, when soon close up for a rallying second of 12 over C&D (good; probably acts on good to firm); Bridge Of Eagles and Tambora were in close attendance that day and this one is now 1lb worse off; in the mix. |

25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Struck at the third time of asking for Micheal Herrington when seeing off Flight Control and 11 others in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month; Flight Control finished a couple of places ahead of him at the Newmarket July meeting since but it was another sound effort from this son of Cotai Glory. |
6/1 |
|
5th 7 (4) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Changed stables this spring and he was a close third on his first two runs for the yard (7f, good/good to firm) before a deserved win at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month, getting off the mark at the tenth attempt with Flight Control and Three Non Blondes close up; respected up just 2lb. |
11/2 |
|
1st 10 (7) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Yet to score but he built up a solid record for Simon and Ed Crisford and has shaped well on both runs for his new yard when a close third in handicaps at York (7f) and over C&D; can race off the same mark here so another bold showing is on the cards. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 5lb |
Took nine attempts to get off the mark but now bids for a hat-trick after two wins at Chester (7.5f; soft/good); up another 5lb but still one for the shortlist now that something has clearly clicked. |
6/1 |
|
1st 9 (4) |
11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
3yo who got off the mark at the ninth attempt when swooping late for a last-gasp win over C&D (soft) last month; up 3lb but that was a personal best last time and this return to quicker ground is no problem; respected. |
9/4 |
|
1st 7 (9) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Yet to score but she was runner-up for the third time at Windsor (1m) in May and then suffered a very poor run when beaten just over 2l into fifth in 1m Newmarket handicap four weeks ago; merits serious consideration despite 2lb weights rise. |

19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Doubled his tally when narrowly winning over 1m at Newcastle last month and followed up with another narrow AW success here over 7f in first-time cheekpieces two weeks ago; they are now discarded but he's shortlisted off this 4lb higher mark. |
5/1 |
|
1st 7 (5) |
5th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has been racing over further since making a successful handicap debut/reappearance at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in April, narrowly regaining winning form at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) 11 days ago; only 2lb higher and return to this trip shouldn't be an issue; cheekpieces given a go. |
11/2 |

1st 14 (5) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |

Made a winning return in 7f AW handicap at Lingfield in April and posted a solid fifth of 14 over C&D last month; remains low mileage and not ruled out for yard among the winners. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 80y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Did well in his first four handicaps on the AW during the winter (1222), but last two efforts have been modest including on his return to turf last time; needs the switch from cheekpieces to blinkers to make a difference. |
10/1 |
|
7th 2 (7) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Gelded and well backed when making all on handicap debut at Newcastle in December; runner-up on his next three starts but form dipped at Southwell (also 7f, AW) towards the end of March; having just his second go on turf and could be well drawn to attack. |
15/2 |

7th 1 (1) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |

Nursery win in December (first run since gelded) came off a 12lb lower mark and he's been expensive to follow since; nudged up a further 3lb since his C&D second (first-time cheekpieces; retained) last time to Illy's Roo and needs to find a bit more. |

Triple-figure odds when showing low-level form at Lingfield in September (7f, AW) and two weeks ago (6f, good); hooded in the latter, having refused to enter stalls at Nottingham (300-1) in April; no claims yet. |

125-1 on debut here (7f, AW) in September and was always in rear after a slow start; hood is now added on this drop in trip; refused to enter stalls and withdrawn at Nottingham in April (300-1 at the time). |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
