12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well beaten in two of her three races but the second here to Box Clever (7f, good to firm) offers hope off this mark now into nurseries. |

30th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Never involved on Newbury debut (6f; 14-1) but she came on plenty for the run and the extra furlong when faring much better at Salisbury recently, travelling well but running green under pressure when a close second to the more experienced favourite; can improve further over 1m. |

14th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 213y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Half-sister to a dual 7f Group winner (including 2yo) for her stable; never landed a blow on debut at Newbury (6f) last month, but that was likely a solid maiden and she may well do better over this extra furlong with the experience under her belt. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Record of 1-13 for Richard Hannon but he won on his stable debut at Glorious Goodwood before following up with a last-gasp success at Redcar (both 6f on good to firm); up another 3lb but he's on a roll and is effective on slow ground including heavy; big player again back up in trip. |

1st 1 (5) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Record of 1-13 for Richard Hannon but he made a bright start for his new yard when beating 25 rivals at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) last Wednesday; up 4lb for that narrow success but he did well to overcome trouble and is a major player again on this drop back in grade. |

1st 26 (15) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has drawn a blank since his 6f nursery debut success at Newbury last year but he did go close in 20-runner York handicap (7f, good) in May; bit below that level in two 7f outings last month but new connections went to 55,000gns to acquire him recently and Billy Loughnane has been booked. |

27th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Made just about all for his two wins at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) in the spring, but was raised 10lb for his 7l romp there last time and may face competition for the lead on this return from three months off. |
5/1 |
|
1st 2 |
29th May 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 9lb
|
Improved for the switch to nurseries last summer, winning easily at Ffos Las and Doncaster (both 6f) before finishing off strongly for sixth in a much stronger race at York's Ebor meeting; better than ever when winning a C&D handicap in April and his subsequent fifth of 19 at Ascot was in a Class 4; could still rate higher; key player despite a wider draw than ideal. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 201y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Won heavy-ground nursery here last September and won at 40-1 in first-time blinkers (retained since) at Sandown (1m2f, good) in June; scuppered by a slow start at Kempton (1m, AW) a fortnight ago and could have a big part to play if breaking on terms. |
8/1 |
|
7th 8 (4) |
19th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Caused a 40-1 surprise when winning in first-time blinkers at Sandown (1m2f, good) in June and backed that up when caught on the post at Wolverhampton (8.5f, AW); well drawn and there's no obvious reason why he can't go well. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 4 (1) |
17th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Ran poorly at Kempton last August in his only AW race; resumed progress with his turf form on latest outing, winning a 12-runner handicap at Sandown (1m2f, good) five weeks ago when 40-1 in first-time blinkers; up 4lb but that was a warm race and he'll go well if this surface proves no impediment. |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Gelded after a quiet debut when only 9-2 at Newmarket; favourite for both runs since, running on well over 7f at Doncaster and 1m at Lingfield (winner progressive); blinkers could be an interesting addition now into handicaps. |
4/1 |
|
5 (8) |
21st Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Disappointing at 9-2 on Newmarket debut in May, but he returned after a gelding operation with a much improved third under prominent tactics at Doncaster (7f, good) last month; sets good standard on that form and he's open to more progress on this step up to 1m; key player. |
5/4 |
|
10 (10) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
First foal of a 7f AW 2yo winner (RPR 85); well backed into 9-2 for Newmarket debut (6f, good) in May but he faded into a remote seventh of 11; gelded since and he needs a transformation upped in trip after a short break. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Returned to form with a good third at Windsor last month and she hit a personal best with her emphatic win from off the pace at Salisbury (1m, good) last Friday; 2lb well in under a penalty and she's a major player again in her follow-up bid. |
9/4 |

1st 1 (7) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
7f win here 12 months ago; placed in two of her four runs this year, the latest at Windsor 25 days ago; decent chance provided the ground doesn't get too testing. |
9/2 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
27th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Good second at Nottingham (1m) on her return but she's been well below par both runs since, tried in cheekpieces when tenth at Kempton (7f) last time; others appeal more. |
