8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Didn't kick on for William Haggas and, following an encouraging stable debut (7f, AW) in July, he never got going when last of nine to Good Heavens at Pontefract (1m, good to soft; 6-1) three weeks ago; questions to answer. |

18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Won 6f handicap here (soft) for William Haggas just under a year ago; didn't kick on for that yard but it was an encouraging stable debut when favourite and third of 12 at Southwell (7f, AW) in July; same mark and shapes like he's worth another go at 1m. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
11yo who needs to produce more than he's managed on his last three starts but he's 3lb lower than when a close third at Ayr (1m, good to firm) in May and has won at Ripon seven times; went close here in August 2024 when he last wore these blinkers (which replace cheekpieces); not discounted. |

4th 5 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner; best form this term when placed a few times in spring, showing that he retains plenty of ability aged 11; gained last win off 7lb higher over C&D and can't be ruled out. |

15th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Tough front-runner; ran a rare poor race last time but had been in good form prior to that, notably when a close third at Ayr last month (1m, good to firm); major chance. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won his first race since joining the Quinns at Pontefract (1m, good to soft; 25-1) last month; went back up 7lb and he ran well off new mark when third at Nottingham (8.5f, good to soft) 19 days ago; good claims. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Ex-Irish; market support proved misguided on his third and fourth British starts, which he followed with 25-1 win at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago, coming from last in a nine-runner race; back up 7lb, still well treated on his old Irish form. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with 1m success at Southwell but she's failed to build on it, only sixth of seven in 7f Catterick handicap 12 days ago; needs to take a step forward. |
14/1 |
|
6th 2 (7) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Turf wins at 1m and 1m1f; scored on AW at Southwell (1m) in April following six-month break and wind surgery but below that form at Newcastle since; returns to turf but may be best suited by further than 7f. |
12/1 |
|
8th 3 (2) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Took advantage of an easing mark to make a winning seasonal reappearance at Southwell (1m; 14-1, first start since wind surgery) in late April; non-runner at Thirsk (ground) on Sunday, and this looks a better fit; likely to have a say from 4lb higher. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Two solid runner-up efforts in 2026 and he won't mind what the weather does; sneaking up the weights but no obvious reason why he wouldn't give it another good go. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 (6) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 2y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won two in a row last May/June (8.3f/1m1f, good/soft) and beaten just a head on this month's reappearance at Pontefract (1m, good to soft); this front-runner has a progressive profile and is one to consider today. |

24th Feb 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

Half-brother to six winners including Sakhee's Return (5.8f-7f including 2yo; RPR 93), Jackpot Royale (7f-1m; 91), Be Royale (6f-8.6f including AW; 79), Queens Royale (7f AW; 75) and Must Be Royale (7f AW; 70); once-raced dam (56) out of 1m Group 3 winner; family has won plenty of races for the yard, but stable only has the occasional winning newcomer; watch market. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Has mainly proved consistent since joining this yard (233213126101), his latest win coming by a head at Ripon (1m, good to soft) in April; probably needs a bit more back up in grade and may not want the ground to dry out too much. |

1st 3 (5) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Tailed off on last month's reappearance in the Spring Mile at Doncaster but may have needed the run and those ridden more patiently came to the fore; he won three times last year (1m1f/1m, soft/good) and it will be no surprise if he leaves that latest performance miles behind. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
A dual C&D winner in 2025; yet to hit top form this season but took a step back in the right direction with fifth of nine over C&D ten days ago; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces here and not out of things. |
7/1 |
|
5th 9 (8) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Three of his four wins have come over C&D and is 5lb lower than for the latest a year ago; well beaten in his last two visits, though, so has something to prove. |
16/1 |
|
6th 4 (5) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Three of his four wins have come over C&D (from 11 visits to Pontefract) and latest was off 3lb higher last July; he therefore cannot be comfortably dismissed despite being well held on all three starts (two here) this term. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Has a rather all-or-nothing profile, easily winning 7f Leicester nursery (heavy) last October and a Lingfield handicap (7.6f, soft) in June; not sure what to expect and wouldn't want the ground to dry out too much. |
33/1 |

11 (4) |
18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Very patchy profile and he's yet to reproduce the form of his wide-margin Lingfield win (7.5f, soft) in June, when possibly flattered by bagging the stands' side rail; handicapper still in an unforgiving mood. |
