22nd Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Dual Flat winner whose form in juvenile hurdles includes an emphatic success at Kempton (2m, good) and two non-completions (pulled up both times) in Grade 2 races; drops back in class after a break but he has a bit to prove and probably needs to kick on again to make a major impact. |

24th Jan 2026 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 0lb |
Progressed well at an ordinary level for previous Flat yard and looked a jumper with a future when rattling home by 14l at Kempton in November (good; Flat winner on soft); only 5-2 for the Grade 2 at Chepstow over Christmas won by Tenter Le Tout and hard to believe he gave his true running; retains potential but probably vulnerable for win purposes even if back on song. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins last season, the first a dead-heat over C&D in July (good to firm); rather patchy form this season, best run when third at Pontefract in April (1m, good); a possible on second run back after wind op. |
14/1 |

5th 6 (8) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Had wind surgery (his third) since last run; form at Pontefract features a success last August (off 2lb higher; one of three wins under Charli Parker) and best effort this season; record of 0-19 when racing above Class 6 is the negative. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Dug in to score on his last spin over hurdles at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft; from 3lb lower) in December; runner-up three times in succession on the Flat at Beverley recently, beaten 2l there (1m4f; 13-8 favourite) just ten days ago. |

27th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |

Sole win on the Flat came here over 1m2f in June 2024 and he's finished runner-up over this C&D on his last two outings; no reason why he can't go well again. |

0-16 over hurdles; over 15l to find with Bunker Bay on their clash here last month (2m1f) and well below that level at Southwell since. |

10th 8 |
9th Jun 2026 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
Not disgraced when fifth of seven (behind Paragon) at Market Rasen (2m, good) 12 days ago, after a break, but is now 0-15 over hurdles and her overall profile is not appealing. |
25/1 |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 0lb |
Belied 80-1 odds when placed off today's mark in this race last year but was well beaten on next hurdling start and has been absent since some disappointing Flat runs in the autumn; too risky. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Has won six races here, from 7.5f to 1m4f, the latest last August (1m4f, good to firm); creditable third here in May (8.5f, good) but below-par last two runs; could go well. |
11/1 |

7th 6 (11) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Loves it here and he's fine from this trip up to 1m4f; placed over the extended 1m here in May before finding the ground too slow at Carlisle; a wide draw isn't ideal, though. |
10/1 |

8th 7 (3) |
9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
All six wins in Britain have been at Beverley, the latest over 7.5f last August (good); has also won at up to 1m4f there so has a chance following good run last time; soft ground a slight concern. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Landed her seventh win when scoring at Pontefract (1m2f, good) last month but has run below par at Ripon and Musselburgh since; the step back in trip is also unlikely to play to her strengths. |
10/1 |
|
6th 3 (5) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Landed hat-trick last August and hit the target at Pontefract two runs ago (all 1m2f); follow-up effort at Ripon, where she's won three times, was bitterly disappointing 13 days ago and her favoured hold-up tactics aren't easy to execute around here. |
5/1 |
|
7th 2 (8) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 170y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
All of her seven turf wins have been on good/good to firm but she's effective on good to soft; well held in first three runs this season but she got back on the scoresheet with a strong finish at Pontefract (1m2f, good) two weeks ago; up 3lb for that narrow success but she's 3-6 over C&D and she defied this mark here last summer; key player. |

5/1 |

3rd 8 (1) |
4th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Beverley specialist who hasn't been at the top of her game over 8.4f there on her two starts this season; however, that trip is probably inadequate nowadays and she has a reduced mark to work with back up in trip; has won over C&D and this 9yo is not written off. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Six-race maiden who has not finished closer than 8l to a winner including in three handicaps (1m-1m2f); may have needed his reappearance run at Newmarket last month but he needs a transformation back up in trip. |
8/1 |

10th 5 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Modest form in his qualifying runs and two starts in handicaps didn't spark improvement last year; well bred, however, and it might be significant connections are keeping faith; needs a market check ahead of this reappearance. |

Back to winning ways with a front-running C&D success 23 days ago (visored first time); up 2lb but should give it another good go. |

|
1st 5 (3) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two soft-ground turf wins, including one for this yard, but he acts on better ground and made the most of a good draw when close third of 15 at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Token Love seventh) in cheekpieces three weeks ago; that is just about the best recent form on offer and he's nicely berthed again; visor goes on and he's respected. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 10 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
First win was on AW but last two have come on turf (8.3f/1m2f, soft); had some close calls on Tapeta during the winter and he was a creditable fourth in big field at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) 11 days ago; could be in the mix again but he wouldn't want the ground to dry out. |

Acts on this surface but his sole win came over 1m3f at Carlisle in 2023 and mostly campaigned at that trip and further since; major query back at 1m for first time in the best part of three years. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Only win was over 1m3f at Carlisle in July 2023 (good to soft); several decent placed efforts this season, and would have a chance on that form, but rather disappointing on last two starts. |

17th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Placed in four of his last six starts including a close call over C&D (soft) in July; on same mark here but he didn't fire at Ayr last time and that took his record to 1-21; tongue-tie worn last time is removed. |

0-8; ran well when third of 11 on handicap debut at Leicester (1m2f, good to soft) in May but hasn't built on it and heavy defeats on last two outings leave him with plenty to prove; cheekpieces discarded after one use. |
